Anyways, it's just a cosmic paper weight now.
This is what was said about the cube before we see Thanos and Richie in the undead Universe facing Thanos.
Confirmation that the cube is still jacked up. "The cube still have a shot or two left". So again, it having any type of weakness towards his durability when overall it was near depletion is laughable.
"It was broken, pretty much SPENT. Enough for one last ZAP".
"It's pretty much a paper weight now".
"That cosmic cube still works? Might be good for one last shot".
Think this is on point with the power output. Especially the first two scans.

Again.
Is a car that's 50% empty slower than a car with a full tank?
well, we know it WAS depleted. i'm sort of siding with carv in this one. imo, the cube was 'lessened'. obviously (as can be seen by the discussion) that might mean that it can still attack at full force but for only a ltd time, or it might mean it can NOT attack at full force at all. i'm of the opinion it was intended to be the latter just from the way the cube was depicted and discussed. just how much power can even a 'lessened' cube unleash? well, again, that's purely opinion based. i'd say.....quite a lot, clearly. was it a trans-level blast? skyfather-level blast? seems pedantic to try and label it that way and any attempt to do so would only be speculatory. if i were forced to pick, i'd say it was a blast on the level of thanos himself, for whatever that's worth.....
and the love affair between carver and ds is sickening me. watch your back ds, i know a certain irish mod who may have his green eyes on you. sneer

huh? herlad level? only i guess if you think thanos himself is herald level. the cube was lessened. the effect of said lessening is up to you. i think it's a bit silly to assume it could reach the same level of power as it could were it a full strength cube, but......that could be blissful thinking. 😉

Sup Big Leo... A fair post as usual buddy. My only comment would be that I've never seen it stated that a depleted cube couldn't unleash a blast as powerful as a full one. I believe it just can't do it for as long. That's just my thought
yo,
i have no problem with you thinking that. just doesn't make sense to me. all the support in the book indicates it was a weakened cube. we know a full strength cube's power--it's one of the most powerful artifacts in marvel. it made thanos eternity at one point. so you think the cube was capable of unleashing an eternity level blast? sorry my man, not buying that at all. if you think it WASN'T an eternity level blast, then you're also suggesting it was weakened and incapable of unleashing its power at full capacity--or that quill, what? held back? also not indicated at all.
you of course can believe what you'd like, but based on everything in the book, and the history of full power cubes, not sure how you conclude that was a full power blast from a weapon that made thanos eternity. [shrug]

It's pretty clear how powerful that cube was when the writers had Thanos easily chump Lord marvell who was empoweredby the Cancerverse gods , it was the same guys that wrote the cube scans carver posted.

after saying i didn't really want to guess at the level, i suggested it might be a blast was on the level of thanos himself, but that's pure speculation, which i fully admit to. clearly i hope we all agree it wasn't eternity level..... if that's true than by default it was less than full capacity--or quill held back. i'll go with the former in this case.

No my good man, on the contrary, I'm simply suggesting that it could unleash just as powerful a blast but not for nearly as long or do nearly as many things shall we say. For example.. Let's say it wanted to destroy the Milky Way Galaxy... A full cube could unleash enough power to get the job done.. Where a non full powered cube could initial release the necessary energies to take out the Milky Way but not have enough Juice to fully get the job done.
No, I don't think it was a Eternity Level blast buddy, and don't remember saying that in the least. What I am saying is, there isn't a single source that I know of saying that a less than full cube couldn't release the same as a full one. If you know of a source please post it.
In the end as you say, it's nearly impossible to tell how powerful the blast was or how much power was left in the cube. It's this is basically a futile argument in the end. My only point is, that there is nothing to suggest that a full powered cube could've released a more potent blast than that cube. For all we know, considering its operator.. that was the best he could do full cube or not. There is just no way to know.
