Yes which all pail in comparison to the LT who also would already have the powers of Eternity, Mephisto etc. Unless your claiming they can do stuff the LT can't.

I get what yoru saying but your failing to realize those powers aren't adding anything new to the table. If you get spiderman's spidey sense and add it to the invisible woman for example then your getting something new and useable. However, when your adding powers somebody already has how exactly does that make you now more powerful?

So you're saying that if Protege copied the LT's power plus every other characters power in the MU, the LT would still be more powerful?

No I'm not saying the LT would be more powerful at all. I'm saying they would still be basically even. As I stated if your add different powers to your powerset then you have something. When your adding powers that you already have what exactly are you gaining? Furthermore, he added the amulet because protege didn't surpass him (show me the scan that says that) but because imo he was now even with him and thus he needed more power. So, I say again do you think Mephisto or anybody you named has powers or can do things the LT can't do? If the answer is no then they aren't bringing anything new to the table.

If the increase is negligible as Mindset says, he's still more powerful. When it comes to beings like that you can only hope to be slightly more powerful.

He's saying it was negligible I'm saying it was increased at all. I ask again do you think those characters have powers or can do things the LT can't do? To me the answer is clearly no and thus you wouldn't be gaining anything. You never answered my question?
It's not a matter of whether or not they have abilites the LT doesn't. It's the level of power. How much more power Protege can generate compared to the LT. The LT can fire a blast at Protege that's very powerful, the one that Protege fires back would be even more powerful because the other powers he copied bolster the powers he copied from the LT.
Get it?

Yeah I don't see it as a generating more power situation. I don't think each time he added somebody powers it thus made each thing you did more powerful and so on and so forth. A blast from Thanos could produce x amount of damage while a blast from surfer y. However, I don't see it as a situation where you just add the total power of x and y together and now you can generate z amount of power. There has to be overlap there which is what I'm saying the LT has all of them already covered.

The whole number set of numbers contains twice as many numbers as the sets of natural numbers, even though it's infinite.
Natural numbers: N = {1, 2, 3, 4, ... ∞}
Whole numbers: Z = {-∞, ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, ... ∞} (bolded part covering the set of natural numbers)
The most interesting sets of infinity are the uncountable sets. These are the ones where you can't make a number diagram which encompasses all the numbers in the set. You can only compare those sets if one encompasses the other.
