Aquaman as he is now wins 7/10
some people say it though but him now would be with the hand so that means he wins 10/10 cause once he takes things powers their gone

Class 100 is reserved for the real top tier strength characters. Cosmic strength level characters (Superman, Hulk, Thor etc.). Class 90 are more earth based strength (Wonder Man, Namor etc.). And so on down the classes. I have both Thing and Aquaman at about class 75 in this scale.
isnt aquaman in the 100 class
But that's just the way i see it.

BTW I love your Deviant Art stuff man. I've always been a big fan of the site.
Aquaman used to be 60tons strength, that was before the upgrade. Now it seems that he in addition to getting a magic water hand, is now using his telepathic powers in greater range and volume. He could always do lots of things with his telepathic power, it just wasn't brought out in many of the comics that he could do so.
He's a bit stronger now, and just as someone mentioned earlier, the comics are base partly or mostly on evolution, also with magiks and some creation. That's what aquaman has done, evolved somewhat by getting more in touch with his partly water-based heritage and its earthly mystic background, he has increased in power, endurance, strength, reflexes, speed and he's tougher. All of these attributes of his were already very impressive, to a degree where he could battle the heroes who in terms of power, were top tier without getting owned or dominated but still would lose decisively everytime(it being clear that he is not as strong) without using his telepathic abilities. Now however, he is more powerful, with strength that appears to be low-level class 100 on average, with it becoming even greater when he is exposed to water.
If you are not superman, captain marvel, martian manhunter, orion, wonderwoman, supergirl or powergirl, you really wouldn't want to battle Aquaman physically. Those are about the only superheroes(any others on their level physically) who out rank aquaman in strength(he's probably as durable as a couple of them I name and maybe a little more tougher physically than one of them) or he not that far off from a couple of them physically.

agreeded but i was under the impresion that with his hand he not only does not need to return to the water but he is just as tough out of water as he was under water all though without his hand he was way stronger and all that stuff under water then is that still how it works
Before, he was 60 tons out of water and stronger when he went back in the water. Before, although he wouldn't right out dehydrate, since he's half human, half ancient ocean based human he would get weaker little by little over time, not be his average and eventually would desire to return back to the water and need to in order to feel normal or be at his peak when it comes to his powers. Now, with the hand he doesn't need to return to the water to be as powerful as he is in water. Also, now he is no longer in the 60ton class, he is stronger on average, a low-level class 100 and when under water he still gets/becomes stronger.
He basically went from 60ton class to low-level class 100, with a water hand that in addition to everything else it does, makes it so that he doesn't need to return to the water for nourishment or to be at his peak. However when in water, he becomes stronger than he already is, probably going from being a low-level class one hundred, to being at most around mid-level class one hundred. All of this increase is because of his getting more in touch with who he really is, his earthly-mystic water based evolved heritage.

Originally posted by UniOmniAquaman has plenty of other strength feats to go with the block lifting. Check 'em out in the Aquaman Respect Thread.
Um, Aquaman may have his rare feat, but i'd put him squarely at class 50ish at most. Spiderman held up part of the daily bugle....Doesn't make him class 100.

Aquaman can take down an entire freakin army of Wolverines 😛
Of course the Wolverine fans are going to say, but he stabbed Namor, a scene which DEFINES PIS
