Just wondering.
It'd probably be harder than doing characters.
Like:
Captain America shield
Batman utility belt
Spider-man web shooters
Thor hammer
Hercules mace
Brainiac 5 force field belt
A mother box
The ebony blade
The eye of agomotto
Those are just random picks. But being inanimate objects (more or less) how would you class them? Offense? Defense? Indestructibility? Variety of powers?
Any input will be appreciated.
Re: Re: Have we ever rated weapons/devices by tier?
Agree with your list except for this. It's in no way "street".
Like Captain America's shield, you can use it to deflect physical attacks. Unlike Captain America's shield you can use it to absorb and redirect energy attacks : mystic, power cosmic, etc.. up to at least Skyfather level.
The sword is powerful enough to wound and even kill extremely powerful beings up to at least Skyfather level.
The sword has more sinister properties if you give in to it's curse, see Bloodwraith.

The Starbrand - High Herald - Sky Father: Depending on the user is what I'm going with until it is more thoroughly fleshed out. However the Starbrand is dependent on the users imagination. Limits are unknown.
Quantum Bands - Mid Herald - High Cosmic: Much like the Starbrand it has been seen to increase the power of even a High Herald being like the Silver Surfer, which granted him the power of a High Cosmic.
Uni Power - *See Starbrand* The Uni Power adds Cosmic Awareness to it's user but what differs between the Starbrand and the Uni Power is that the Uni Power is an aspect of the Enigma Force which was described to be the personification of the Universe. Power Level: High Herald - High Cosmic.
The Ultimate Nullifier - Universal threat level: This weapon can be as deadly to its user as it can be to its victim.
I would rank them either by how powerful the creator was or what max powerful being it can really hurt or be destroyed by.
CA Shield was broken by Skyfathers, thus i would rate it at High Trans levels. Mjolnir was broken by Abstracts and resisted Odin a Skyfather, so Skyfather etc.
WW Lasso would be Mid to High Skyfather imo.
Surfers board would be High Trans.
Ant Mans helmet, I don't know what it can do tbh, I would guess Mid Meta.

Surfers board high trans?
Cosmic control rod: high trans, not only does it works like mjolnir without the worthiness hinge so youd need to keep it close or swallow it. Also controls the annihilation wave which gives u an expendable army at your beck n call.
Wreckers crow bar..: mjolnir light id place it at mid herald maybe high if it had a competant user
Helmut of nabu...trans but youre no longer yourself which sucks but it increases stats exponentially.
Re: Re: Re: Have we ever rated weapons/devices by tier?
But those are soecific circumstances its not like the sword can harm skyfathers who dont energy blast it first.
Other examlles are Dr Occult's disk of the seven. It can absorb and redirect energy (both magic and natural (. He's used it to gran Hal Jordans soul enough magical energy from himself, Phantom stranger, Zataņa , Xanadu and a few oth ers to make him a match for spectre. Does that really make the disk trans?. It can't produce that level of effect reliably only in the presence of that level.
Aren't the GL rings semi sentient as well? I guess that it would depend on a persons perspective as to what they believe that a weapon is. If I were to judge the Uni Power, I would call it a weapon. A very sophisticated one, but one all the same. What about Mother Boxes? Aren't they sentient?
Aegis Armor - Low Cosmic/Mid Sky Father: The Aegis is one of the most powerful personal body armor's in comic history.
Iron Man Armor - High Meta - Mid Herald (depending on the suit)
X-O armor - Low Herald: Not sure if the X-O suit can be classified as a weapon? If so, I guess that the Venom symbiote has the right to also be classified as a weapon.

Yeah, i'd say the Star Brand's an object/weapon, for my purposes anyway. Same as a mother box. I even said more or less inanimate objects in the OP, as i know some objects have a life of their own.
@beatboks
The energy blast absorption has nothing to do with the Ebony Blade harming skyfathers.
It's already KILLED a skyfather and it never fired an energy blast. Seth, who had absorbed the power of his entire pantheon, was killed by Hogun hurling the Ebony Blade cursed Black Knight into him (Black Knight was unharmed btw). (please log in to view the image)
Let's see Captain America's shield do that.
