So how are we rating Erza now days? She above Azir? Above Gray? Above Natsu? Above Laxus? Above Gildarts?
How much of that sword slash on Dragon Eileen was actually her own power and how much of it was Wendy's enchantments?
We've seen that without DS advantage a sword strike from enchanted Erza can be tanked by human Eileen's face without flinching, is DS advantage really so great that it lets Erza slice through dragon Eileen like butter, when normally she can barely slice a few millimeters deep into human Eileens face?
Did Erza powerup without us realizing it?
Is having broken bones a good thing??
Was Erza holding back against Azir???
Is a combination of Azir, Kyoka, Ikaruga & Azuma(a combination Erza couldnt handle) superior to dragon Eileen????
So yeah, i'd like to hear how people are ranking Erza these days. Especially compared to other FT top tiers like Gray, Natsu, Laxus & GIldarts. Can she beat Azir now in a rematch? And what do you guys make of Erza's most recent feats(how much did Wendy really contribute to that sword slash).
Erza is definitely above Ajeel (not by much). But slightly below the FT top tiers. About a half-tier below. Basically, she's a solid Medium-Tier Spriggan. To be honest, there were so many factors in this battle that it's hard to tell how much of it was Erza's power.
First of all, I don't think slayer advantage gives as much of a boost as everyone makes it out to be. We're talking about the difference between Erza and a dragon... If slayer advantage truly covers that large of a gap, than Gray could've one-shotted Mard Geer with his weakest attack while Chelia wouldn't even need Third Origin to defeat Dimaria.
Second of all, we have to consider this "power-up" Erza got. She asked Makarov or "Master" for power which she used to destroy the meteor and then came back down right after to slash at Eileen. Now was this power given to her like in Sting's situation or was that bright light just one of Erza's usual PoF moments? If it's the former, we need confirmation. If it's the latter, then this is all nonsense.
In my opinion, Erza wasn't holding back against Ajeel. It was a close battle and both contestants were going all out. As for the combination between Ajeel, Kyōka, Ikaruga, and Azuma, they are definitely below Eileen. There is no question about that. If Erza were to fight Ajeel, I think the outcome would depend on which attacks the both of them uses. It might be the same or it might be different.
Also, while we're on the subject of last chapter, I am just going to let it be known that my ranking still hasn't changed. I chose to disregard most of the feats for this very reason: Erza did around the same damage on Ajeel (with
Nakagami Starlight) as she did on Eileen (with a regular sword slash). I already explained why
Dragon Slaying Magic shouldn't have given that much of an advantage. The only questionable factor was the power that Erza received. Had Erza used one of her stronger attacks, this would have been more believable... Don't even get me started with that sword going through Erza's back and side... That's a prime example of no limits right there...

( doesn't mean they're so stronk but just the portrayal I believe is like this)
