we ALL know that Railcoining has basically always been the 'BIG GUNS' for single target damage since it existed.

but before Fraud, they were starting to fall out of favour.

why? the Jackhammers, they have so much overall motion and so much tech for single-target damage that elite runners started to just use them kind of exclusively as the main workhorse. railcoining was falling out of favour, and you could clearly see people doing it less and less.

ENTER THIS BOZO

the following are properties of the Mirror Reaper that make it ideal for railcoining:

1- super high health (70).

2- TOP priority target, this guy is NO Insurrectionist bruh he's the #1 threat in the wave.

3- large hitbox.

4- no teleporting away, most of the time just hugs you, (idk if they teleport away in the Cyber Grind like they do in the bossfight, but if they do then it IS quite slow and predictable)

5- no resistance to electricity.

6- spawns when 50% of the wave has been cleared, meaning less enemies to skew the Railcoin.

TLDR/Result: this guy is basically BEGGING to be Railcoined, it is THE THING to do when he spawns in and you've got the cooldowns for it. the efficacy of this move is on the same level as starting the wave with a deathstar/gasoline-shower.

'Black Flash raises the potency of an attack by a power of 2.5'.

it's HIGHLY LIKELY this was talked about here, perhaps several times, but I'm new and I'm not gonna bother searching, plus a reiteration is not gonna hurt anyone.

exponentiation is NOT the same as multiplication, this could not even be used here sensically because simply changing the unit which the energy of the strike is measured with, drastically changes the outcome of the '2.5 power'.

for example an elite human punch is about 1000 Joules (yes we are using Joules, even if you're some kind of freak who wants to measure this stuff with Newton's Newtons (the unit of force) the result is the same). if somehow that is the unit that the Jujutsu gods are using then the black flash would result in ~31.6K Joules, making it a ~31.6x multiplier.

if jujutsu gods instead reckognized electronvolts (eV) as the correct unit of energy, then the 1000 joule human punch would be some ~6.2415x10^21 eV, now that shit to the power of 2.5 is some ~3x10^53 eV, equalling some ~4.93x10^35 Joules, a ~4.93x10^32x multiplier.

TLDR - /results: see? depending on whatever unit the jujutsu gods specify as the unit for the energy of a strike, the result is insanely different. in joules, a black flash is a high-level anti-materiel rifle, in eV it's bye bye earth.

Both the same starting energy, raised to the power of 2.5. using exponentiation itself for such an aspect is a completely nonsensical idea in the first place.

now was any unit ever established to be favoured by the jujutsu gods? would the idea of an exponentiation make sense even if a unit WAS established? NO! and NOOOO!!

Gege is a chief but he did NOT cook with this one guys.
