How to calculate your own power level?

[Alchemist]

I know the simple method is to ask a friend use a scouter on you, but how do you test it in SP? like if i level up and want to see my power level how do i get it? does anyone know the calculation or a mod for it?

well now you can have your other CaC chars as teammates so you can scout yourself now i would think never really used scouter ever though but i would think its possible.

how do you do that?

[Alchemist]

is there not a way to calculate it in general?

[Alchemist]

Ah, the scouter shows health above and ki below, i thought one of the numbers was power level my bad.

When you're dealing with your CaC's it's kinda pointless to want to know their powerlevel. Considering that due to plot reasons they're able to keep up with and even defeat people like beerus, vegeto blue, and jiren.

I'd imagine it would go something like this.

by the time the ToP rolled around, i'm certain we've got characters in the trillions. majin buu, with his whole 1.6 billion power level, got tossed around like a ragdoll by beerus, and he put exactly zero effort into it. but our CaC runs him through like it's nothing, along with MUI goku and jiren. whatever any of those three are, our character is beyond even that. we don't even really need to take any kind of transformation either, our base forms are plenty strong enough.

it's impossible to put a number on, but it'd be in the hundreds of trillions if it could be quantified in any conceivable fasion

HAH.

If anything we're lucky if we broke a couple hundred milion. Fans reach the wrong conclusions because they bought into the Daiz power levels. Except for the numbers listed in directly in the original Dragon Ball Manga the Daiz numbers are wrong. Frieza wasn't at 120 million on Namek, Goku wasn't at 150 milion. SSJ is not a 50x multiplier. Akira Toriyama himself confirmed that 50x was too much. He also made the point to have Frieza gloat about raising his power level to a mere 1.3 million in RoF. His view on numbers has generally been far lower than what fans have calculated.

this doesn't explain why frieza stated that his power level was easily over one million during his saga on namek, after just having gone past his second stage. unless toriyama is just mass retconning the entirety of z, being 1.3 million with his golden form is a joke of a power level. this goes for goku as well, since apparently he's only slightly above golden frieza at his peak at the time of rez f.
did the namek saga and the rest of z not happen? we cracked the millions literal decades ago. next you're gonna be telling me toriyama said their power levels were actually around ten or eleven despite their claims in the show to be a million.

i always thought up my own power lvs as a kid. i know frieza sort of contradicts himself but what if he meant at 100% of each form. which he never bothered showing more then a faction in each form like when he revealed to goku that he was fighting at 1% of final form. im not going to say
that he was 1% in all the other forms but what if he wasnt using 100% cause he knew he had so much more and was using his transformations as a showoff to intimidate his opponents.

as far as my made up versions as a kid which i know are off i had ss goku at 15million at that
time. cell final power at 100 million in comparison and vegeta in buu saga as 190 million.
but mines were completely made up as a young teen at the time.

also someone said ss makes them 50x? i thought gt when goku fought realdo something was
said it was 100x also when goku fought frieza he was totally spent before transforming would
make sence it was at least 100x to me but what do i know.

Frieza said his power level was 1,000,000 in form two. That makes it a around a 500k boost. Form 3 could be 1.5 Million, for example. Final Form Frieza could be below 10 million. The Daiz calcualted 120 million for Frieza and 150 million for Goku on their idea that SSJ was a 50x powerup. AT disagreed, saying it was extravagant and in his mind, Goku had improved 10x when he wrote the manga. Whether you agree with 10x as consistent or not, between his statements and poitning out Frieza bragging in RoF that he could go up to 1.3 million in RoF (assuming he meant his first form), AT would put MUCH lower numbers than fan calculations if he had to stick a power level to it.

You even see that later in Buu saga when Goku needed SSJ to move 40 tons of weight, and when he was closely associated with the Super manga, when SSJ Vegeta could not pick up 1,000 ton Magetta. They're much less powerful than fans have convinced themselves.

There were guidebooks issued way back in the day which had power levels and "Multipliers" for SSJ, seemingly developed by staff and not AT himself. SSJ was listed at the time as a 50x multiplier. No one credits GT because as far as most fans are concerned, GT is not part of the series since Akira Toriyama had no part in crafting the story.

[landscape]

even without crediting gt which i do. still one thing people really arent accounting towards is
on namek when it was goku vs frieza. goku was at 20% of frieza power extimated by frieza
whether true or not who knows but frieza was at 50% and destroying goku. goku got beaten
to the point he almost died but got a second wind to continue. from there he fought and then
made a spirit bomb and put all the rest of his energy into it. he had just enough energy to live.
ss isnt an ability that just instantly restores you to full power and then amplifies your strength.
it amplified whatever little power he had left and that was enough to still beat frieza.

yes frieza was hurt some by the spirit bomb but wasnt like he was even breathing hard or
anything other then a hurt eye and probably some energy spent. i doubt goku was even at
5% of frieza full 100% at the time and at best of the 50% i doubt frieza lost 3/5 of that
let alone the other 50% not being used. goku was in bad shape before going ss maybe x50
was enough but i feel like he wasnt even at that point at 1% of frieza full power. but of
course frieza was weaken too. its clear though at fresh and full strength goku much more
powerful then frieza in ss as later shown by trunks vs frieza.

That's fine. Take whatever interpretation you prefer. The author of the series has a much more conservative one.

[landscape]

im taking a conservative one also i dont believe its 150million or any of that. we just differ a little on how its conservative. as far as 1.3million it seems a little low but that could fit. though im not sure how well that fits with him being at 1% with goku to start and having enough power to beat vegeta minimally.

which at 1%, frieza final form 13,000? unless he powered down after fighting the rest
something doesnt add up there. ginyu was 120,000 even dodoria and zarbon were higher
vegeta after getting the senzu bean should have been over 50,000 at least if not higher to beat jeice. then he had to rest before frieza too so he should hae been a little stronger. even if
50,000 was his 1% which still wouldnt work for so many ways x100 would be 5million.

[ActualKiller129]

I like to think of the the power level as health times ki times (level divided by ten) so if your health was 10000 and your ki was 500 and your level was 15, 50,000 times 1.5 (so 75,000) but you do whatever you want
