Is Shura just that goated?

Okay we all know Shura, THE first boss you have to fight
[Unless you are doing a no-story challenge]

Rocking 300 hp ( obliterated by 1 small level 140 blast), the bum that you m1 to death with a sword-man, 10 blasts from a low level mage-man, clapped by a greenwish cultist-man, whatever.
I am here to tell you that he is (Maybe) (Possibly) (Probably) goated.

Now, we come to him because he was poisoning the ENTIRE water supply of The Jaws…considering that islands/regions are actually supposed to be atleast 5 times bigger than what they actually look like in game, thats alot of water for a 300hp “bum” like him, also considering that there are entire patches of poison visible in the water.
If you think about it, thats kinda absurd…?

First i’ll assume he stayed at a minimum of a few weeks to a maximum of 1 year on that little island of his, he says that he “only recently (possibly means that he’s been here for a few weeks?)
discovered his powers” and that he “does not even have full control of his powers yet,” Considering that Shura is a conjurer and not a mage, he should eject far less poison and acid than a mage. He was also TRAINING not directly targeting the water, with all those factors combined there is no way that he isn’t an actual power house.

Now, You are telling me that 1 “weakling” like him was able to poison the entire water supply of The Jaws just with his venomous sword abilities alone, within a year at max?

If magic really is so dangerous that a level 15 (or something, i dont know if he even has a confirmed level…) is able to mess up entire cities of people with training alone, then I am afraid of what the hell have minmaxed poison/acid (or any other lethal element) users at level 140 have done to the towns they “tested” their skills in.

This now has 3 possibilities,
A: Shura is an actual power house being able to poison entire regions with his CONJURER powers alone when he just discovered that he has them, meaning that he has insane potential. AND that we The Player have gotten really lucky fighting my goat…
B: Magic is a horrible thing that should have never been gifted to humanity, because mere licks of it are able to put entire towns of innocent people in danger.
C: This is just a plothole you stupid new poster, never post again.

In conclusion: I hope I can be crushed into the ground by my goat Shura The Wandering Ronin in future chapters. :blush:

Edit: If you assume that is a plot hole, My Second reason to why My Goat is not washed is in Message 34 (or 35? I’m new here i don’t know how the bar counts messages, my reason is that giant paragraph that I typed.), I dont want to rewrite it here…

@Dudeman get him!

3

Yes

real answer: he is the cia putting lead in the water

4

honestly i hope there’s people in AO universe who actually clean the ocean
like, water from the Dark Sea surely makes the waters of the War Seas very bad and thats not yet including people who fight with magic like Acid, Magma or Lightning (hi alchemy)
So its probably the 2nd Possibility: B
finally, dont forget about magic pollution which is the reason why White Eyes exists
and also the reason how possibly Shura unlocked his magic

5

this is peak shura is the goat boss

6

Shura isn’t a goat wth you guys talking about

300 hp and his ass gets brutalized by a homeless person with a fraction of that but okay :wilted_flower:

7

you say that as if stat builds were an actual lore thing and not just a gameplay thing
he probably just kept sending acid bullets into the ocean and it eventually spread massively, just like he himself explains

8

Even if he did just plainly target the water for some unknown reason;
That guy is still a level 15 (or around that range) and he’s poisoning entire regions of the sea with training alone.
He should have like mere quarters of power that we The Player have, so this either means that he’s the goat or giving humanity the gift of magic was the worst decision ever made in history.

9

Levels are a gameplay thing btw (they don’t canonically exist)

Yeah, he probably trains his magic by just blasting the ocean with it. By doing that so many times a day, it’s no wonder that in a certain amount of time, the ocean’s surroundings will be entirely polluted

That makes no sense because one level 10 GuestCCCC can beat 2 shuras at the same time, so

10

Guest 666 VS Shura :scream:

11

First by “He should have like mere quarters of power that we the player have”
I meant that we, The Player, should be like 10 times stronger than him.
And, if the “Unrefined” poison blasts cast by a Conjurer who just found out he can cast them, are able to poison The Jaws by just repeatedly being cast (Assuming that yes, Shura is an actual idiot who decided to shoot his POISON blasts into the water he himself uses instead of having a specific place he just shoots at that he assumes won’t lead to the water,)

Then imagine our current Player casting "Ultimate Art: King’s Acidic Blast’s!"thats just 20 max size blasts into the water supply of a Ravenna , 5 times. Acording to the logic of Shura the after effect is all fish near all nearby islands are dead and the Ravenians are all poisoned.

That sounds a bit too powerful in my honest opinion.

12

yeah too bad we can’t do that and I’m a good person, I wouldn’t pollute the ocean where thousands of people sail through daily and even fish on
i’d melt their homes though

13

He certainly has goated drip but that’s about all he has going for him sadly :wilted_flower:

14

Let’s assume that a morally incorrect person receives the powers of “poison” or maybe any other “venomous” element. Or lets assume that our Giga Prodigy Main Character wasn’t morally grey, and instead evil. If you train for even a few years or hell maybe mere months. You will be able to poison even the most biggest of cities if you just keep sneakily casting your poison blast into the water at a slightly hidden location.

This wouldn’t be the case if Shura was a goat and built different, if you just told me that the reason he can just turn entire seas to booty is because he’s just that good for some reason (Prodigy of some kind) , I would accept that answer. However if you told me that Shura is just a regular poison conjurer then i have my questions on why the hell have evil poison mages not turned the sea to nuclear waste.

15

i think the people would stop drinking the water once they realized it was acid
:pensive:

16

Water’s still poisoned isn’t it,
where would they get fresh water from after they realize their entire water supply has been turned to mere waste
And if they do have a new one, just cast more poison into it considering you are an evil heartless maniac who decided to poison entire cities for some reason

17

If you were that powerful why not just kill people directly :pensive_face:

18

He probably shot them dead ahead, but we know that acid blasts leave puddles underneath

19

First off, merking people directly would be slower than just poisoning the entire populus,
And i assumed that you are just a mere poison mage who trained for a few months (Shura trained for a few months and he did what he did…)therefore would get oneshot by the local powerhouse of the city.

Shooting acid into the ocean for a few weeks isn’t really quick
Plus the water he poisoned is only like 10 feet deep
