Saltborn is probably closer to 2 times baseline, actually, or just shy of it, since he was both a Continent level-er himself (or very near it) and absorbed the power of another Continent-level guy (Nameless God). So, still an AP disadvantage, but slightly less of one.
@Velox Well, here's my issue with that-
What exactly are Pyra's... win conditions? Like, maybe there's something I'm not understanding, but I don't see how turning "imagination into reality" is a counter to Immortality/infinite Self-Resurrection unless she can use her Data Manipulation or something of the sort to understand why it is, exactly, this guy keeps coming back over, and over, and over again...
As far as I can tell, right now-
At the start of the fight, Istanbul is dragged into The Nameless Isle as a result of Evil God-version Saltborn standing there, and that immediately activates the memory hax as a result. Granting Pyra the benefit of the doubt, here, Pyra can at least resist it enough before he proceeds to throw a sword or a lightning bolt or somesuch, and then she timestops and blows him apart because there's nothing stopping her at that point. Right?
Unless her reality-warping is passively just "I cancel immortality/resurrection because I imagine I killed them, therefore it's reality", the guy is just going to keep coming back, over and over and over, and as long as his essence is still intact he's constantly eroding Pyra's memory. If her resistance to that sort of thing doesn't hold up that well to Malos-level mind hax, I don't see it holding up that well at all to The Saltborn's...
And losing one's memory is really detrimental here, especially, because one might forget about having just fought a Nameless God!-enhanced Saltborn, ergo not remember that he's immortal and requires special means of proper execution, or even worse forget that she was supposed to be fighting this guy to begin with... or how her powers work... or well, just about anything. I imagine it might take a little bit longer to chew through a few centuries of memories, hence the benefit of the doubt here, but the more I think about this the more I see it going roughly along the lines of:
Pyra kills the Saltborn. Then kills him after a brief skirmish again... and again... eventually forgets the Saltborn was ever an enemy... ends up a lot like the amnesiacs one sees wandering the island, as basically a psychic battery for the God, whereafter the Saltborn has no reason to kill a now-docile Pyra.
...I'm kinda thinking I need to change my vote, to be honest. I can maybe see Pyra winning a decent chunk of the time, but assuming she takes roughly half of the matches requires too many sketchy assumptions about how she acts in-character in a situation like this (immediately going for time-stop to obliterate), how the mechanics of her reality-warping work in a direct combat context, etc. for me to be comfortable casting that.
...However.
I might change my vote back? I'd like some elaboration on A: how her reality-warping powers of turning an imagination into a reality work, a bit more specifically, and B: what's in-character for her to do.
Also, C:, might her Soul Manipulation be used offensively? That would be a pretty solid win condition, if that was the case, but as far as I can see she can only manipulate her own spirit, not other peoples'.
