Cool but now you're comparing something one character was able to take vs who another character was able to beat. Iron man's armor has taken far more than amped ulik and kept ticking.
Iron man is a class 100 himself. Only guys who tear up his armor physically are usually high heralds+. It doesnt happen often enough to call anything below that his average either. As if AM taking Starro hits would be his average.
I don't think Sentry was trying to tear it up. Theres a difference in tanking punches and being pulled apart.
I don't get where your getting it was a "Pentagon Armor" the fight happened during the time period of Extremis.
Considering Aquaman had alot of highs under the JL title I wouldn't call the Starro thing an outlier.
You even type up Namor vs Extremis and it's what you get. I'm not suggesting Ironman isn't a class 100 just don't think his physicals match Aquaman's. Not suggesting Aquaman dwarfs him I'm just saying it's notable. You having to try and dismiss the Starro instance kind of just cements that to me,

He lasted longer then Diana against Amazo in JL#27
Taking a hit and slam from Amazo passing out and then getting back up the next page to take another hit and pass out.
In Rock of Ages he fell from Orbit traveling as Light and was still conscious after the fact.
Triumph seemed to peer with Superman. Who even yet only took a few hits from Amazo and was dazed after 2.
I'll admit it was a Rookie Hal but in Waid's earlier run Hal was struggling to keep a shield up at the bottom of the Sea while Aquaman was fine.
I'd probably have to look back at it but there's alot of more stuff like taking a hit from Eiling and being fine the next panel while Zauriel is missing.
I really wouldn't call the Starro thing an outlier given all the stuff like that.
If you're referring to their scuffle in Iluminati, that wasn't extremis. The visual difference between the pentagon armor and the extremis armor is clear to anyone who has read even the Extremis storyline. That meeting was around the start of new avengers where Tony wore the Pentagon armor for a large chunk of that time until the extremis story happened.
And yeah, Sentry was trying to neutralize Tony. He was even given the order to kill him. He hit him with full intent to shut him down and maybe even kill him and Tony walked away without one scratch.

The only time I remember Arthur and Powergirl getting into any battle is when Powergirl was Eclipso possessed which is an amp.
Fight comparison though I remember Powergirl getting dominated by Tiamat who Aquaman beat and called his grab on Arthur a "little love squeeze"
Nothing in the Amazo instance suggest off panel fighting other then the moment when Amazo first showed up with Steel, Huntress, Wonder Woman and even then we don't know how many hits they took. So I'm going on panel.
On panel we see Aquaman swung into Zauriel which implies force into Amazo and then tossed to the ground. Whereas we only see in regards to the first hit on Diana that she gets backhanded, and Superman on panel only taking 3 hits. If your going to imply that they had a "linger offpanel fight" that should be an all around thing and not pick a character to decide who had it,
6th page of this linked battle Superman is down for awhile I know he gets back up but regardless he's down. http://m.imgur.com/a/hW5MJ
Zauriel has divine armor. So yeah he has durability.
I'm pretty sure rookie Hal has feats against Sinestro which is part of his origin. He also took a nuke during Emerald Dawn. Hal was loosing concentration because of the pressure which is a durability thing..
