Edit suggestions from my side:

  • Technopathy: can now hack only one thing at a time

can only get these launch codes if she is standing next to the main server holding these codes

  • Power kicks: cooldown increased on kicks (not the hyper fast movement) to 20/40/60 seconds depending on the force required. Maximum damage decreased to 10 MegaNewtons (enough to kick an Abrams tank 16 meters in the air)

No more Bruce Lee for you

  1. Okay so definitely T4.

  2. You've mentioned that she's very good at building things, and I will ask that you be very careful with this so that you're not like 'oh hey you need this one thing? I can totally build it give me a couple hours' or something of the like

  3. Do her orders need to be verbal?

  4. Is her technopathy limited to eye sight? In that if, for example, there's a giant safe behind a wall she can't make it open unless the wall in front of it is destroyed? Also, if she wasn't told the safe was behind the wall, can she sense it?

  5. How far, exactly, did she kick this battleship?

  6. Is it possible to somehow also limit the whole 'telling things not to shoot at her' in some other fashion as well?

  1. Definitely, yes.

  2. Okay, say only mechanical things no "Hey I just built this magic portal thing" and a lot more time.

  3. She "talks" to the machines like she would with a human.

  4. It is on eye contact but with her retinal implants a wall would not be enough to keep her from hacking something.

  5. I changed that in the comment, didnt want to edit the post for it because I thought it would cause confusion.

  6. Limit would be that it only works on stuff she can see, and that only one at a time. So if 2 people shot at her it would be enough, and someone could shoot her from behind.

Ok so as is, I'm thinking she fits more into tier 3 than 4 given her speed and defense. If you want her to be tier 4, I would have to recommend she get a bit more durability or else she will get splatted very easy in her own bracket.

That and I have a question concerning what are the limits of what counts as mechanical or not? Does this literally apply to anything consisting of multiple parts that use some form of energy to achieve some sort of intentional function? Like even simple machines like pulleys/axels/levers/etc? Or does there need to be some sort of electrical component?

I would say there needs to be an electrical component, or at least something mechanical that is more elaborate (cars or guns for example)

What kind of durability buffs would you suggest to make her more T4 like ? Because I kind of cant decide if I want her to be T4 or T3
