power level equation dbz lovers only

[brick1988]

ever wondered wat ur power level is? this is my formula
strength (bench press max x squat max divided by weight then divide by age [weight is pounds])
times speed (leg press max divided by weight)
times skill level (this is the number of martial arts u've studied [mine are kick boxing, taichi, taekwondo, muay thai, brazillian jiujitzu, and mantis style] divided by 2 then plus one [plus 1 more before the dividing if u've actually mastered any of them; not for each just 1 even if ones all u've mastered]
then all that times 2 for life force

the average human pwrlvl at age 18 is str: 210x270/180/18=17.5
spd: 360/180=2
skill: 2 ma /2 +1=2
17.5x2x2x2=140

mine is str: 250x350/250/25=14
spd: 750/250=3
skill: 6 ma /2 +1=4
14x3x4x2=336

proof: Goku in the manga when he powered up to fight nappa and went to "over 8000!": vegeta
lets round 8000 to be logical
goku had 4 martial arts masters and mastered all of their styles so 8000 divided by 2 for life force then divided by 3.5 for skill factor = approx. 1143 divided by a logically hger than average spd lvl that leaves a logically matching str lvl
goku spd: 11
goku str: approx 104

11x gokus weight due to his height and muscle mass is about 200 his leg press is humanly possible but highly difficult at 2200 lbs
104x gokus weight and estimated age of 25 is 520000 divided by a humanly possible but highly difficult 550 bench press equals a blah blah squat max of about 950
now 950x550/200/25=104.5
and 2200/200=11
skill: (4+1)/2+1=3.5
and 104.5x11x3.5x2= approx 8050
see about urs

also i give u anther example with goku at the fight with raditz of course; when he fired the kamehameha in the manga he was at 924 this divided by his at the time skill level (had three masters before he met king kai) 3 plus 1 for mastering then divided by 2 and plus 1 for default; then divide by 2 agian for life force leaves 924/3/2= approx 154 logically high spd of 4 leaves logically matching str of approx 39
4x200=800 leg press
39x200x24=187200/500 squat max =approx 375 bench max
therefore str: 375x500/200/24= approx 39
and spd: 800/200=4
skill: 3+1=4/2=2+1=3
so pwrlvl= 39x4x3x2=936 a little off, but accurate none the less as raditz stated in the manga that th pwrlvl was still rising

no haters plz

the powerlevel of a farmer with a shorgun is 5

[NickGuy]

yeah, not to mention that gokus "power level" in the beginning of dbz is what...336? i dont remember....and as a boy he was lifting mountains.

[Vaiyt]

the average human pwrlvl at age 18 is str: 210x270/180/18=17.5
spd: 360/180=2
skill: 2 ma /2 +1=2
17.5x2x2x2=140
mine is str: 250x350/250/25=14
spd: 750/250=3
skill: 6 ma /2 +1=4
14x3x4x2=336
Nonsense. Roshi's power level in the Saiyan saga was around the 150 mark, and he was certainly several orders of magnitude faster, stronger and more skilled than you.

And since when the "average human" knows two martial arts?

[1505627]

139 to be exact

[NickGuy]

yeah the average human be 336? wed be the saiyans if that was true LOL

dont forget hes also over 100 yrs old; gotta factor tht in; n aftr u do yeah he does run fields around most folks

139/(assuming he knows 5mas and is a master 6/2+1=)4/2life force=17.4/ 5 spd= 3.5 str
5x110(he scrawny)=550 lg prs
3.5x100 (rounded age) x110=38500/175bnch=220squat
3.5x5x4x2=140; still at average, at over 100 yrs old, damn

and as for th 2 martial arts; most poeple know at least armature boxing and or street fighting; remember this is an average as in can be off when put to test of actual people, but still useful as a starter

[brick1988]

yeah the average human be 336? wed be the saiyans if that was true LOL

330 was goku surpressed AND with weighted clothing; his whup-ass mode was nearing 930
also dont forget the age factor; if we used gokus age about 24, instead of 18 itd be
str:215x275/190/24=13 (stats on both ends go up naturally until age 25, then they slowly decrease if no training or poor dieting takes place)
spd:365/190=1.9
skill:2/2+1=2
13x1.9x2x2=98.8 a sharp drop if one doesnt keep training

these terms are estimates of the average with a 5% give take

and read closer, average is 140; 336 was mine

[brick1988]

the powerlevel of a farmer with a shorgun is 5

this farmer was obviously over weight and over the hill; lets put a estimate

5/1 skill is 0ma+1 so it stays
5/2life force=2.5/1.5spd=1.7str
1.7xage 45x wght 250=19125/110bnch=175squat
1.5x250=375 lg prs

now reverse equation (above numbers are approx. these will be accurate)
175x110/250/45=1.7
375/250=1.5
0/2=0+1=1
1.7x1.5x1x2=5.1 (decimal points probly rounded off by scouter)

[brick1988]

why dont yall try out ur readings; and be honest; if u cant be accurate round by one place

[brick1988]

note: all above stated power levels are maximums in normal form; in goku's case kaio-ken is not yet accounted for

it is possible that each kaio-ken is a super form usable by anyone with the art's training; this increase is likely in the form of +50% of norm max for each kaio-ken multiplication; for instance, goku in Kx4 kamehameha may have been 8050+8050x200% [this is a guesstimation of what "over 8000" in the manga may mean; see above for equation]

exactly 24150 high enough to defeat Vegeta's galik gun, but not enough to kill him after as the winning beam likely had the power of it's user minus the opponent's and when it hit merely gave Vegeta a slight weakening and nasty headache of rage

[brick1988]

139 to be exact

why dont you try yours

[Vaiyt]

330 was goku surpressed AND with weighted clothing; his whup-ass mode was nearing 930

Still makes no sense. Roshi is far, far, far from being "average" by any standard. He's multiple times stronger and faster than the strongest normal human on our Earth.

Including age on the powerlevel counts mucks things. Roshi and Goku were evenly matched in the Tenkaichi final; but since Roshi is much older, his powerlevel is lower? How is that supposed to tell who's actually stronger?

Can you move faster than the eye can follow, or push multi-ton rocks? If not, you have no business having a powerlevel of 336. Your maximum leg press, two times that of Goku? I don't think so.

[penguin-in-leather-jacket]

this is baseless, time-wasting garbage.

[Miburohunter929]

..Holy shit guys, my power level is over 9000.

[brick1988]

do none of u horse faces kno wat having fun is? this post isnt for haters and neither is this website

[brick1988]

Your maximum leg press, two times that of Goku?

read all the posts too, the reading ur quoting is the average human at 24; goku at pl 936 was legprs 800;

and honestly wens the last time u had fun wen u werent making fun of others havin real fun?

[brick1988]

this is baseless, time-wasting garbage.

then y do u bother if u have somethin btr to do; y r u even here if u find this useless; do u live to tell people their stupid, is that wat makes u feel good; i bet ur school bully is real happy right now, he made u like him

[brick1988]

and before u judge the totals look also at the sublvls gokus str at first appearance in dbz is 39; mine a mere 14, avg 17

dont knock cheap wine from a bad year until u taste it

[master of read]

i dont even see the point of these thread, let alone two of them. no one really cares about DBZ power levels any more.

[Len Ikari145]

Love how the haters lecture on hatin'.

Of course, you grasp for the weakest point of my post, while not adressing anything else. Yet, you're wrong. I was referring to your statistics for Goku with a powerlevel of 330 (Do you really think you could beat Goku, even while suppressed and with weighted clothing? He could break your hands by hitting them with his face).

Okay then, let's use your "Over 8000" Goku instead. By your own account:


his leg press is humanly possible but highly difficult at 2200 lbs
a humanly possible but highly difficult 550 bench press
"Humanly possible" is pathetically weak for someone like Goku. As I said before, he was pushing a slab of solid rock several times his size, in the beginning of his training as a kid. By your stats, Vegeta was just a really strong man instead of a planetwide menace, and Spider-Man could have brained them both with ease.

and honestly wens the last time u had fun wen u werent making fun of others havin real fun?
I like DBZ, and I think your power level calculations are bollocks. Is that too hard to understand?

[OverMaster]

This website, last time I checked, was an outlet for everyone, including those who aren't you, to express their opinions, even if they disagree with yours.

And shock of shocks, there could be some of us who don't think this kind of bogus stunt is 'having fun'.

Honestly, it's not like it bothers me (I hadn't felt any need to reply until you went uncivil on fellow posters) if you want you waste your time with pointless number-crunching when Akira Toriyama himself admited it had no point to it anymore, but really, I fail to see any actual purpose to all of this. If it amuses you, well, good for you, but that doesn't give you the right to insult the majority who says otherwise.

i repeat my previous question, if all of u find this so dam pointless and so dam stupid and u seem to hav so much more to do then y r u even here?

The same reason why people can't help but being attracted to train crashes, I guess.

Replacing 'train' with 'grammar and spelling' here, of course.

[KnockBlock]

I don't think I know what's going on here.

[DarkBlade]

Other posters are free to feel this is a pointless endeavor, particularly when they offer reasons. This does not give you the right to call names. I've had to warn you in both threads on this topic, and doing so again will earn you a bit of time off from CBR.


To everyone who is puzzled by the thread contents or feels it a waste of time: The point has been made. Please move along to a thread that interests you. Thanks!

[Vaiyt]

I do not think the thread is pointless; I was just pointing the faults in his calculations.

His equations "work" for DBZ characters because he works backwards, by taking their stated power levels and assigning strength levels that fit his equation. The problem is, they don't match with the characters' feats. As I showed, Goku is able to bench press way beyond mere 250 Kg.

[DarkBlade]

Vaiyt, the system DOES seem faulty, but I've also never followed DBZ for any real length of time. Feel free to continue to debate the merit of the method and possible alternatives, I just don't want people to dogpile.

Thanks. :smile:

Alternatives? Hmm, now that's something to think about.

[mason80]

what about this Bench press X Leg press X Running speed /age /weight /9.8 (earth's gravity rating) x2 (if u can manipulate KI energy)

i just checked it, mine is 220 x690 x7 /21 /285 /9.8= about 19 not in the best shape lol

in high school it would have been 220 x690 x8 /18 /260 /9.8= about 27

[RegalSin]

Well the power levels are only suggestive. It is to try to make the reader, understand how strong they are at certain times. In most cases it is the power of love, spirit, mind, and body. To make up for that, there is something else.

The key characters is

Piccaloe
ChiChi
Gohan
Goku
The Andriods
Freeza /Baby
Genu force
Vengeta
Franky
Ninji

The list goes on and on forever. The earlier series they had emotion, while later the aurthor used the power system. This same system was utilized in various videogames.

Also remember an old man like Roshi, has a power level of 100, but like somebody said, Goku as a kid was busting threw mountains, yet he got K.O.ed buy Roshi in a tournement.

The power lever system probably reflected the Dragon Quest game series. As he did the art for the entire game.
