Heh. I just find Silent Master's assumption funny. Many accomplished GLs have had "as far as I'm concerned" horrible wills and characters and lack of imaginations yet they kick ass.
Guy Gardner for instance.

Willpower is one of the things needed to operate the ring, the people choosing it are the ones assuming that their willpower is high enough to make decent use of the ring.
Imagination, Nobility and Humbleness to give in beyond yourself(Sacrifice) are others.
Imagination a gift few are born with. Talent to believe in your vision yet humbleness to always know there is more in the myriad kaleidoscope of the infinite.

And I'm sure you believe that you have those on the level of elite GL's, however I disagree, just like I disagree with people that think they can be Batman's equal in intelligence or fighting skills if they train/study enough.
Originally posted by Silent MasterBatman's fighting skills are real world impossible. The matter of his intelligence is more complicated. Explicitly, Batman is actually only as smart as the writer which is not that hard to top. But the quasi-clairvoyant investigative skills and magical science they atribute to him are also impossible in the real world.

a gl's power is more relative and more likely than batman's, seeing as a ring carries a lot of the weight. it can speed up your perceptions, gives you an automatic shield regardless of how much will you have, and allows even rookies basic flight.
at the very least you could be an effective superhero without having to push your willpower.
learning to be batman, though...
