H+ Mayhem (Worm)

You can't beat them with force, you have to cheat.

I actually suspect you could beat them with force, it would just take gratuitously large amounts of force over an extended period. The Endbringers seem to operate on similar principles to Scion himself: their avatar is tied to an extradimensional storage space from which they can rebuild the avatar over time, and unless you completely exhaust that storage space you'll never fully kill them.

Ah, good to know. And, of course, killing him just gets you one or two more.

Indeed, albeit up to a maximum of 20-odd IIRC.

That's an assumption that's rooted in the Eden interlude.

Eden had 20 "endbringers" that apparently weren't nearly as much trouble as the ones Eidolon summoned, because their intent was far different. We don't actually know if Eidolon can make/summon more. Let's hope we never find out.
 
There are a few ways to kill him, it just requires ignoring physics or an amount of force on the literal cosmic scale.

Flechette can do it, Clockblocker with some monowire could probably do it, Grey boy and Bakuda could disable him effectively if they went into it with the right mentality. So on so forth. You can't beat them with force, you have to cheat.
You have to cheat and have an insane amount of force. Then you might have a chance.
 
Endbringers are made from a collection of portals. We don't even know for sure if their "core" is an actual weak point - all Endbringers that died in canon were killed by Scion and his fuckyou beam. Fanon aside, I don't think Fletchette or Clockblocker+wires could do it.

About using enough force... IRRC, "enough force" to kill an Endbringer is enough to destroy a galaxy.

There's WoG somewhere that, if Flechette had hit Behemoth's core after Phir Se's little display, it would have killed Behemoth
 
Hey Cauldron. Remember how I keep saying that you should have put Eidolon in stasis? Now his conscious scewup in dealing with his subconscious screwup is going to do interesting things to your post Scion plans.

It's here



Doesn't explain why their cores are supposed weak points when their entire being are portals holding the mass of a spiral galaxy though.

Eidolon Clones you say sounds like you would like a couple more sets of three endbringers
Eh, they should be drawing from the same Shard, which should have nowhere near enough energy to use the endbringer creation one. In fact, the first three are massively overclocked.

See how the other three are bery bothersome, but aren't the unholy terrors the first three are. Tohu, Bohu and Khonsu are monsters all right, but they don't carry the same Dread as Behemot, Leviathan or the Simurgh. They are more nigh-unkillabe monsters than forces of nature.

I don't think I've ever heard anything to suggest the other three that showed up were any less powerful than the first three - is there WoG on that? My impression was that it's canonical that all of the Endbringers are holding back by quite a bit.
 
Noelle's tendrils had a hold on Sveta, but after a few seconds of tugging, they recoiled. They'd been holding her arm and torso, artificial flesh. Apparently the tendrils weren't interested any more.
Waffbot: too spicy for yog-sothoth.

How quickly could a city evacuate anyway, even with Mover powers assisting?
Dunno, how fast can you get your spider cyborg clone with bags full of heads and a swarm of bees into a shelter? I imagine they'd empty out pretty quickly at that point.

The cores are the portal, it's just big and spherical. If you remove the core, they stop bringing in new mass and therefore can't regenerate, which brings them down to merely being kaiju with absurd abilities.

(Also, the core might be their equivalent of a gemma and connecting them to whatever shards control the abilities, and also the intelligence behind them. But there's no real indication in canon about that.)

Or they are simply puppets without strings, if you remove the core.
 
-Sometime after the battle-
Ada: Alright, it seems like we all survived, my sister is incapacitated, most of the Nine dead, and evacuations underway... is that it?
Taylor: Yes, that's correct.
Ada: Excellent. Now, did you manage to save any capes?
Taylor: You... might say that.
Khepri: -Steps forward with dozens of headbags attached to her-
Ada: ...I should have known giving them to you would mean more work.
Taylor: -Raises an eyebrow-
Ada: Okay, okay! I'll fix them, jeez!

Not that funny but well... I can see lazy Ada reacting that way. :p
 
I like how Cauldron is now one of the greatest threats to humanity with Scion gone. If all the shit they did comes to light? Without a crazy Scion to point all that anger at?

Good job preserving human civilization there.
