[FOX's X-Men] AP Upgrades

[RoTt35]

This calc was updated and re-accepted, which would upgrade Storm's lightning to 8-A+ at 869.26 tons. Regarding scaling, Sabretooth was able to withstand Storm's lightning while she was fully furious, and her power was also being boosted, so he should scale.

I also think Sabretooth should have two keys since he has a clear change in strength between Origins (1979) and the first X-Men (2004), going from being easily defeated by Wolverine to easily defeating him. So his first key would scale from Weapon XI's Optic Blast at 597.5 tons, and his second key from Storm's lightning at 869.26 tons. Regarding LS, I guess his first key could be Class K via ripping out Wraith's spine, or just upscale from Pre-Adamantium Wolverine at Class 25/50

• In summary, the characters who would still scale from 597.5 tons are: Sabretooth (1979), Wolverine's bone claws (Pre-Adamantium), Sentinels, Iceman, and Colossus. While the rest of the 8-A+ characters would now scale from 869.26 tons

Extras:

• Photographic Memory (Thanks to his own gifts, he forgets nothing, recognizing people at once), for Professor X
• Further Information Analysis (Can immediately process a cacophony of input through his physical senses to determine the appropriate threat levels of every person he meets upon initial contact, treating each as a potential enemy) and Social Influencing (Instigating Fear - After witnessing Wolverine’s slaughter, Iceman refused to move, breathe, or think, as he was more desperately scared than ever—all he knew was that Logan was the scariest creature he’d ever encountered, that he was every nightmare that he had ever had come to life, and if he never met him again, he’d be haunted by these memories for as long as he drew breath), for Wolverine

I’m fine with the revisions overall, but I’m a little iffy with the scaling. How are you suggesting this affect Adamantium Wolverine? I don’t think does Sabretooth would be able to scale to Class K from his feat against John Wraith. We see that he impales him, breaks part of his spine from the inside and then yanks it out. That’s a different scenario from the spine rip calc which focuses on ripping out the spine vertically.

I think it makes more sense to downscale him from Wolverine's LS. Weapon XI also scales from Wolverine's Class M, and he Sabretooth was able to briefly restrain him until he teleported. I agree with the key for Sabretooth.

From their pages Storm, Sabretooth, Juggernaut are now 869.26 tons, is there anyone else I’m missing?

How are you suggesting this affect Adamantium Wolverine?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

I was asking if you were trying to use this to upgrade Adamantium Wolverine. He’s not on your list of characters scaling from 597.5 Tons, so I didn’t know if you were arguing for the 869.26 value to apply to him.

this seems fine

Looks good

Thanks for the input, regarding 1979 Sabretooth's LS, which option would be better?

1. At least Class 25, possibly Class 50 via upscaling from Pre-Adamantium Wolverine
2. Class K via ripping out Wraith's spine, if the feat is legit
3. Downcaling from Weapon XI at Class M via briefly grabbing him, though I'm not sure if that warrants scaling

Maybe Class 50, possibly Class M. Because Pre-Adamantium Wolverine already upscales X-24 who has the Class 25, possibly Class 50.
