He did. While Paul was fused with the Ophidian, Paulphidian commented that they didn't want to disturb the Life Entity.I don't think there was ever really a connection with life, and.... did Zoat ever actually confirm the Life entity being in Earth?

1) Citation please. And even allowing for that, SBP is rather in league of its own, and in canon worm text I don't remember similar weapons at all.It won't, Tinkers have tried gravity based weapons on them in the past to no real effect.
Which is understandable given the energy fields used to cancel their own gravitational effects, would do the same to such weapons.
How? No, seriously. Ok, let's say that shards can perceive him correctly. Note: that's not a given at all, if he has any scry wards, and shard remote inter-dimensional perception is technological in nature, given that those shut down ring scans completely. He might as well not exist as far as shard senses go. But, ok, let's grant it to you that shards can see him. Let's say that they have seen him use a mallet construct, a chainsaw construct and a singularity beam projectior construct. How do they know which he will use in any given situation? Please remember that he has enlightenment, which is a soul structure alteration that directly affects his decision making and is unlikely to be (easily) modeled by shards.None of that will protect him.
He's a human using easily modeled powers, the only time an error will pop up with Shard based precog is when he pulls out something completely new. But each new thing will only work once, after which, what that thing can do, will be added to the modeling.

It's nicer then saying "Sorry, but I can't give you this super useful item because that would basically be destroying one of Earth's very few possible trade goods.".
Endbringer layers being denser is canon, not fanon.1) Citation please. And even allowing for that, SBP is rather in league of its own, and in canon worm text I don't remember similar weapons at all.
2) What gravitational effects? are you using that "denser to the core" fanon? It's not density, it's durability that increases.
Scry wards protect against Power Ring scans because the light is basically magic.How? No, seriously. Ok, let's say that shards can perceive him correctly.

Oh, and how would they model glow construct properties? Unless you posit that Miss Militia is a green lantern knockoff and her constructs are glow based of course, or something similar, modeling interactions between yellow light and, say, Gallant's emotion blasts is likely to produce "ERROR: Divide by Banana" messages.
Not completely, they can't manipulate time for one.It's an entirely different scale. Power Rings are at least a couple magnitudes above tinkers in Worm.

Citation please. Because no, it's fanon, or, rather, it's directly wrong. The canon citation uses the word durability, not density.
No, he used the word "equivalent" and he also directly stated that a planet kracking attacked is enough to kill one.As is the explanation given by Wildbow about just how much of a matter reserve they have to draw from and how that works.
That's your supposition. Power Rings are very explicitly not magic.Scry wards protect against Power Ring scans because the light is basically magic.
But they can't. Sure, they could, in principle, model "this is a yellow colored solid object" for a construct. Then Gallant's fear-inducing blast (with the kinetic impact effect that should be enough to shatter it) impacts it, overcharges the construct, and causes it to explode, wiping out the neighborhood. And mistakes like that will keep on happening.Also you are over thinking things, the Shards don't have to model the "how" of what he does, just the "what" of it.
He's an enlightened human. Enlightenment is unique to humans (or close enough), is magic/soul based and directly affects his decision making. Coupled with ring's own sensory input (which shards are unlikely to model), this means he'll be operating on unknown to shards dataset using unknown to shards decision making process. Meaning that it would be very hard, if not outright impossible to predict his behavior in any unusual situation.As to how they will know what things he will use in any situation, he's human, modeling humans is not hard, they do it literally all the time.
Why do I get the feeling that Mr Augustin is going to ride a little more recklessly from now on. After all, if he can get all fixed up for free then there's no real reason why he shouldn't have a bit more fun, right?
The Nazis in DC spent a fair amount of time on magic and mystical stuff in general.Okay, that one's weird.
Purple healing ray= magic.
When it's invented by Wonder Woman or Io, sure, okay.
When Zoat made the inventor Paula Von Gunther, a Nazi scientist, well that leaves me wondering if in her spare time after learning magic if she took up knitting or interpretative dance in her apparently very abundant spare time on Themyscira.
Stupid past-me, always making my life difficult.I'm pretty sure Paul used the purple ray on the beaver indigo dude and that was somewhere in the ass end of the galaxy (same chap he recruited Ranx in) so this can't be true?
Sounds about right, but artefacts relying on specific magic structures to work will fail away from their native environment.I seem to missing something with the mechanics of the setting. I thought that the reason why Magic doesn't work once you leave Earth is that it is a product of life. Magic would thus be extra potent on Earth due to its status as the home / prison of the Life Entity, essentially impossible to use in the Vacuum of Space, and simply relatively weaker on a planet like Tamaran with a normal ecosystem but no other magic empowering aspects.
Am I missing something? This seems like is really significant given the many supernatural entities that are seeking some kind of universal conquest. Their threat radically declines if they are only able to exert their powers on the few planets like Earth that are magically potent.
Then let us speak of it no more.
Renegade used it several times in Space, on himself, on Mortalla, on Adam Blake, on various Tamaranean Slaves and he also used the Purple Death Ray against Citadelians."Purple rays are magic-based. At the moment, they only work on or around Earth." I shrug. "Sorry."
Sounds like new gods fuckery to me. Their tech is explicitly magical, Renegate used thaumic devices to boost his healing, another Grayven ship was suffused by his will, etc.Renegade used it several times in Space, on him self, on Mortalla, on Adam Blake, on various Tamaranean Slaves and hr also used thr Purple Death Ray against Citadelians.
Ah...Renegade used it several times in Space, on himself, on Mortalla, on Adam Blake, on various Tamaranean Slaves and hr also used thr Purple Death Ray against Citadelians.
Maybe he was powering with his god-nature rather than Earth's ambient magical energy field?Renegade used it several times in Space, on himself, on Mortalla, on Adam Blake, on various Tamaranean Slaves and hr also used thr Purple Death Ray against Citadelians.
Okay, trying again. The SI only used it to close relatively small wounds while the Renegade has a connection to the Source.Maybe he was powering with his god-nature rather than Earth's ambient magical energy field?
That works for the Renegade but not for the SI.Maybe make the healing rays only work in high-magic environment(not necessarily Earth)? Both Paragon and Renegade don't exactly have normal souls, so near them counts as high-magic environment?
Hmm. They get "charged" in high magic environments, and eventually stop working outside high magic environments?

Typo spotted.She moves the purple ray to Mr Augustin's left arm and he looks visibly less uncomfortable.
