The Superhero Database Classification number, or SHDB Class, is a number that represents the overall 'power' of a character. All traits of a character are used for calculating the Classification.
What it DOESN'T mean
This doesn't mean that a higher class would always beat a lower class character. But the bigger the difference in Class is, the more obvious it is who'll win in a fight.
How is this calculated
( INT^1.3 + (STR*0.5 )^2 + (SPE*0.5)^2 + DUR^1.6 + (POW + (SPS*SPL))^2 + COM^1.8 ) ^ TIER
Super Power Score and Level
Every Super Power has a score (SPS) that is used to calculate the Class. Each Super Power also has 3 levels (SPL). The level is set when connecting that Super Power to a character. The level determines the final score, of the Super Power, being used in the calculation.
Skip to the bottom. Very underrated...I've always interpreted what he did and the phalanx did as assimilation of matter(living or nonliving) and my reference to this character is from the original 90s X-men smash cartoon...Yet, he can also absorb energy to some degree, forcefield, assume different weaponry and forms, and infect matter with a techovirus(not just tech objects like hackers). That Robocop monster that I requested does this*, too, but it's weakness is to consume a virus that can stop it. He'd defeat far more powerful foes; the phalanx, in the cartoon, were even able to pierce Magneto's force bubble using parts of itself to apply pressure to it, when the X-men could not burst it...To be clear, Warlock is a phalanx entity that is an X-man and the plalanx think like galactus(evil). But, I think they are more evil, as I think they are greedy for consuming things; whereas, galactus seems to feed only out of hunger...
*I requested this one, as well...
