That's a tough one Frank's would be so cool percy's would be awesome but I agree with hazel she's uncursed so I could be rich and mist powers would be awesome
Also one thing that's often overlooked - Percy did cause that Volcano to erupt in the battle of the labyrinth so it could very well be possible that he might have access to the Earthshaker powers from his dad but they are just dormant for now.
He erupted it cut he summoned water from his body, the water evaporated, and the lagre amounts of steam caused super high pressure that blew up the volcano
@@ubel539 I like that Percy has the ability to create water. Because, if he was in a place with zero water and was very hot he can't use water (his primary source of power). But, he doesn't use it all the time because it's draining.
@@arvoredeuva5485 I know :) But that's just as far as his then discovered powers go. All I'm saying is geokinesis might be dormant & get awakened at a later point.
I love to imagine Nico's potential when he's older - perhaps Percy's age (16-17). If he can do so much at the young age he's at, I really want to see where his powers would take him and what new talents he could unlock as he grows and is able to harness his power easily and with fewer endurance setbacks.
That is so true. If Percy can kill Medusa and the Minotaur at age 12 while Nico can summon army of skeletons at that age. Then damn at 16, it will be unimaginable of what he can do
If I could remember, all Hercules have done when he was a demigod, Percy managed to top it all at the age of 17. He doubled all of Hercules’ feats and accomplishments
He did even better. Spoilers ahead for the Chalice of the Gods in case someone didn’t read it: In order to acquire the Chalice and return it to Ganymede, Percy challenged Geras (the god of old age) to a fight. Being the deity of old age, Geras has the weight of millennia on his shoulders and is practically impossible to beat in a duel of strength. Only one demigod had even managed to bring Geras to a draw, that being Hercules. Percy is about to lose the fight when he reflects on how he’d love to grow old with Annabeth and Grover and realizes that he shouldn’t be scared of old age, for he chose to live his life when he turned down inmortality and he should enjoy life for what it is. Percy hugs Geras, telling he loves him (as in, he loves the life he wants for him and values Geras’ sacrifice). Geras is touched, because nobody ever valued old age and therefore nobody cared about him. By showing Geras that he cared, Percy did even better than Hercules (who we are told several times that he was the biggest jerk in Ancient Greece).
@@tja3567 He controlled Akhlys's poison, tears, saliva, and whatever other liquid on her he could think of, then separately he bent the Rivers of the Underworld out of Tartarus's "veins" at the Doors of Death. He's never specifically called out as manipulating blood (I reread the books a few days ago), but he compares the rivers in Tartarus to his blood a while before weaponizing them
Percy is both incredibly powerful as the son of poseidon as well incredibly capable as a warrior not to mention despite not being the smartest his battle iq is actually incredibly high
honestly I think percy is quite smart though because things were just not explained to him after he was thrown into the world but he actually has an incredible memory and seemed quite smart. like I was reading the books again this week and he was remembering things he learnt in Mr Brunner class in the last olympian. I think everyone just played him down as stupid even though he actually isn't and he has a really hi battle iq as well
Nico himself said that when he stands beside Percy, it feels like he's beside a god. Standing against tartarus himself is just crazy, this kid is a war machine
frr percy and annabeth would have died in tartarus if they didn’t find Bob nico is a legend also the fact that he had to keep secrets between the existence of the camps is crazy
I believe Annabeth is really underrated in terms of powers. Yes she has no “magic” except her insane intelligence, but she is an extremely skilled fighter which we often forget. She managed to survive on her own at age 7 before finding Luke and Thalia, she has such knowledge on myths that she knows how to defeat enemies way more easily than others. So of cours she is not like Percy or Leo; but at least she surpasses Piper. By a lot. In terms of experience, also 1v1 combat. Yes Piper has charmspeak but if someone can escape it it’s annabeth. My girl doesn’t get enough credit 😭
@@ashanteunderwood3736 yes athena did help her a bit; but we have to keep in mind that gods are allowed very few interventions in demigods path, even more regarding their children. She did not receive much more help than any of the other 7
When it comes to Annabeth we have to remember the information that we have also gotten about her family with in the Magnes Chase book There is so much more to Annabeth that we don't even know
Powers and abilities are different things, fighting is something they all can learn, she's good at it because she fights since she was 7yo. But if it was a list based on the best demigods, she'd definitely be top 3
Percy Jackson has saved the world multiple times, he's on another level. They don't really mention what Jason has done before. Nico I can understand being up top he's able to not only teleporr himself but other people and he moved a giant statue that is about 2 to 3 stories tall. But percy has fought almost every Greek monster known and unknown at this point. He's fought God's, titans, and Giants, in the later books he chokes a goddess with her own poison for Zeus sake. Honestly gods should fear Percy at this point.
They do fear him, why do you think wanted to kill him when they found out about him? Remember the Gods know the faith of every demigod, they know what they're capable of
Another kind reminder that Annabeth held the sky for around an entire day but no one remembers cuz they were focused on Percy holding it for all of 5 minutes
I refuse to accept that because Annabeth has the stupidest character traits for that. She’s literally a contradiction of herself, i don’t understand where Rick was going with her
I think it's pretty obvious Percy should be one but the crazy part is that he still has much more potential since he hasn't tapped into that Neptune side of his god powers with earthquakes which would make an already considered strongest demigod into a undisputed #1 demigod
@Elaina Miller Was it? I gotta read the books again. But there was also that time where he Destroyed that Bridge in Last Olympian. The one that killed Micheal yew I think. I do remember hepeastus mentioning to Percy something like this "you're the son of the Earthshaker lad"..... Percy at that time was on calypsos island.
Percy is the most powerful demigod said by Nico himself. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong. I feel like Thalia should be higher, she has the blessing of artemis which makes her faster and a bit stronger than normal demigods. She went toe to toe with Percy and she defeated Luke with her combat skills.
I totally agree! She’s basically semi-immortal. Rick nerfed her by making her afraid of heights. She would have been so much more powerful if she could fly and control the winds
The thing is demigods become more powerful as they age. And, Thalia couldn't handle 13 years old Percy when she was 16. In fact, Percy was going to win when Oracle interrupted. As for speed and strenght, while she may be far stronger and faster than normal demigods(due to her being a child of big three) she is still far weaker and slower than Jason, Percy, Nico. When Percy and Jason fought, Piper said that she couldn't see them. And, the same Piper saw giants in slow motion. The thing that makes her seem powerful is her character and courage. Other, than that she hasn't done anything impressive to match Argo 2 demigods.
@@Kbax3614 Okay.... But you gotta remember that Thalia has been a tree for almost 7/6 years so when she lost against Percy is understandable why? Percy at that age still had some training while Thalia on the other hand has been surviving on the streets since she was 11 l think. She's self thaught, she didn't get the training percy got from chiron, nico from ghost in the underworld and Jason from Camp Jupiter. And to defeat Luke who's been called as the best swordsman in 300 years is a big deal. Luke could probably go toe to toe with jason in terms of combat. In that creek fight, let's be real here....... I love percy but without the water he would've been a roasted fish. The water kept healing him while thalia on the other hand had no healing powers. She also got the blessing of artemis which makes her stronger and faster and the fact that she's a child of the big three, that makes her one hell of a demigod. They srsly nerfed her by making her afraid of heights. Ofc at the moment she's not as powerful as Jason, Percy or Nico but she has the potential to be atleast more powerful than Jason and Nico. She deserves to be higher on this list. I would've given her Leo's spot. Thunder, lightning beats Fire from what we've learned from Avatar TLA. And leo has no combat skills as good as Thalia. No way in hell are Frank, Leo, Piper (Maybe) and Hazel stronger than her.
She never actually went “toe to toe” with Percy. They had a confrontation back when Percy was 14. She sent a lightning bolt at him (her literal strongest attack), he recovered in 3 seconds, and lifted an entire creek that would’ve drowned her with little to no effect. Now, during and after HOO, Percy is far far far more powerful than he was then, and we really don’t know how powerful she is rn. If you’re using that lopsided confrontation from when they were 14, that doesn’t apply right now.
A reminder for the Nico fan club, no he is not more powerful than Percy. Nico is very powerful (and should be tied for second on this list) but, Percy is in his own league currently(who knows what will happen in the solangelo book).
Yup Nico is powerful but to me he is a glass cannon. He can dish out a lot of damage, but he is young and his powers take a lot of energy. We see what shadowtravel does to Nico, when he first learned how to do it it kept knocking him out. Percy meanwhile is just an all round good fighter. Everything about him is just legendary, and he’s more experienced than Nico. Literally every character (including Nico and Hazel I believe) say that he’s the most powerful demigod they’ve seen
@Percy Potter It’s not a series, it’s just one book. But it has been confirmed and if I’m correct, the writing part of the process is already done and it’s coming out next year.
@@AbolaSpartan I think Nico has a ton of potential maybe not be as powerful as Percy, but he's only 15 and he gets more powerful as he grows so come time he could absolutely be one of the most powerful demigods ever
Personally, I think Hazel's powers are really underrated. She killed the guards to the library incredibly fast in the Tyrant's Tomb, she's able to teleport two different ways, and she was able to use her mist control to defeat a much more experienced sorceress with phenomenal powers.
She single-handedly stopped Gaea from rising as a CHILD who had never been trained in combat, so raw power alone. Being able to control the most in insanely OP on its own, and that’s without touching her Pluto powers, knwoledge of the underground, her gems and precious metals, the curses she was able to inflict unintentionally, plus on a physical level she’s a highly trained Roman soldier who has literally the fastest horse to ever live, talk about a frightening cavalry. But yeah control over the Mist alone is like top five minimum.
I just realized that Percy will most likely be 18ish by the next series of books. He will be one of the few Demi gods to make it to adulthood. this also opens up room for KIDS.
Rick has stated that he doesn’t want to make Percy age, so I think most of the future series that we’re going to get are going to be extremely close to one another, overlapping a lot. Some might even be prequels.
@@Wembo_o Not really. As the fans of the series grow older, they become less likely to read the newer books. The character growing up alongside the readers, as well as the maturity of the books increasing, could lead to fans sticking around longer. Yes… new young kids would be coming to he series as he years go by, but the numbers would be ever decreasing. But it depends entirely on what Rick wants to do. And whatever he decides is neither better or worse then the other options he had. If he wants to continue the series similar to Harry Potter, having the protagonist and maturity of the series increase as the original fans age, we’re here to support it. If he wants to keep it in the teenager demographic, and continue making stories with younger characters, then we’re also here to support it.
Truthfully, if Percy had gone to Tartarus alone, he would’ve been ten times more powerful. For example: Without Annabeth stopping him, he would’ve learned how to bloodbend. He also would’ve had the ability to control the river Styx. ( Edit: I see yall’s points; I didn’t think about that lol- 😭)
I think hazel’s pluto powers can be very useful in combat like imagine one second you’re fighting the next you get hit with a brick of gold in the head
She has a feat of disarming three of the seven while they are possessed and we know for a fact her ability works on weapons so nothing is stopping her from disarming by her opponents and yeeting there weapon miles away. Also she would solo Festus cause of this ability like seriously Festus is so dead if he ever needs to fight Hazel.
EXACTLY Percy is the most powerful demigod said by Nico himself. Nico has cool powers and all but water is everywhere so Percy is more powerful, change my mind
@@rythena8680 looking at it in a logical view, I think you're right. Percy can control blood. But know from the kind of person percy is I doubt he will ever bring himself to do something like that. Even in a life and death combat.
@@jide.ade. plus it can be very dangerous. He could accidentally snap someone's neck. Or, he could pull the blood out of someone instead of controlling them like a puppet. Percy would never go to that level.
Very true points on Nico! He’s my favourite by far but id really love to see his capabilities when he isn’t drained or hurt as well as older. The more he trains and the better his endurance using his abilities the more powerful he’d become. I really can’t wait to see more of him!
See, I agree that Percy is probably the most powerful, but I think he's probably the only Riordanverse character I can think of who I would classify as overpowered. Nico comes close, but the fact that you talked about that using his powers too much exhausts him is enough to tip him out of that zone for me. Percy, however, has weaknesses, but they have almost nothing to do with his powers.
@@mndhmonkepineaplegang Because Frank, as son of one of the most powerful/important Roman gods (which can also bestow literal temporary invincibility to his children if they're worthy enough) plus he's a descendant of Neptune, with the powers of Periclymenus (which allows him to "be anything" according to his family and Mars, so he's not limited to animals and the fact that Mars agrees with "anything" means that if he familiarizes himself enough with anything from mythology he can become it). In theory, Frank can become Percy, end his attack as Nico, and then finish you off by stomping on you as Typhon
I really feel like Leo deserves his spot on the list because there is no greater power than intelligence He could probably outthink most of the people above him and his ability to work under harsh conditions is something truly admirable Also I’m biased towards him HES MY FAVORITE
Right, it sorta comes down to the Batman dilemma. We all know Batman vs Superman doesn't end well for Batman assuming Superman isn't messing around. But Batman with prep time probably wins every time. If Leo can workshop the problem he can win. But say someone just walks up and stabs him in the throat with no warning - he's far from immortal, and he isn't a demigod of healing. Cauterization would only get you so far considering internal bleeding. But I agree, it's remarkable how far the ability to make things can take you in a world of gods.
@@mysticturtle997 I mean, I wouldn't say he's on par with Batman, but he's shown to be an incredible strategist in the books. For instance, once he gets his hands on the Archimedes Sphere, he's practically unstoppable
@@dissolution9843 yeah, but leo actually has really strong powers, with very little thinking time (probably less than a day of prep) he could beat jason wih ease
Honestly I really agree with these ranking like I thought i would've been annoyed that nico wasn't #2 but your explanation about how all that he went through with tartarous and how it impacted his physical self made a lot of sense, also I'm so fucking happy that you put the kane siblings so high because they are so powerful but not many people recognize that and I'm happy you did
I think my favorite Percy feat comes at the end of Son of Neptune. Gianrs are built up as these horrifying anti-gods even more dangerous than titans that require demigods and gods to team up to defeat them. So what does Percy do when he meets one? Takes it down himself, of course, and smashes its face with a statue (of a god).
Percy hypothetically could have all 4 elements under his power. He gains earth and water and storms(air powers) all from his dad, and uses them all at least once. But he also is proven to be fireproof, multiple times.
@@almond4305 he has yet to actually be burned in a severe way, im calling that fireproof until something proves otherwise. Either way, resistance isn’t bad, considering homie shouldn’t have any fire at all. But nah, Manz went and casually became the Avatar
I really like how you ranked it. The only thing I would change if it were me making up the list would be moving Reyna up a peg or two considering she could take on a giant pretty much single handedly in 5 minutes.
Nah, he didn't inherit geokinesis, he said it himself in one of the demigod side books. Which is a shame, really, I thought he had inherited it myself because he caused that gigantic eruption
@@arvoredeuva5485 he did use his earthquake powers in that volcano. Hephaestus mentioned it later on the book. Something bout " you forget that your father's called the Earthshaker something"
@@Inacio04-20 It was in The Battle of the Labyrinth when Percy set off Mount Saint Helens. This awakened Typhon and blew Percy to Calypso's Island. Hephaestus found him and updated him on what was happening in the world which is where you remember the quote about Poseidon being called Earthshaker.
annabeth should be higher, she has good stamina shown by her holding up the sky for A FULL WEEK while percy could barely hold it for 15 mins. She is a skilled knife fighter holdin Kronos at a stand still temporarily even though she was exhausted. In hand to hand combat she might be the best character we have seen so far, flipping percy over her head and defeating an arai with her bare hands. She and Jason would have been evenly matched (powers aside). An underrated character
1. Holding up the sky is a feat of will not strength 2. She could beat Jason in a fight WITH powers Annabeth should absolutely be ranked higher(especially higher than piper this dudes on crack) and so should Clarisse
I don't know where you got the idea that she held the sky for a full week. Percy dreamed her taking it and Artemis relieving her in subsequent nights so at most she held it for 24 hours. However there is a good chance that him dreaming the events was not simultaneous with them taking place so it is likely she held it for a shorter amount of time.
@@kimicrewe4443 and Jason's been training since 2-3, and again, his "divine" powers are extremely superior compared to Annabeth's, because of who their fathers respectively are
Absolutely fantastic video bro! The editing and explanations you gave were very well done. I also thought it was awesome you tier ranked the characters. Also I agree with basically everything here lmao! 🤟
After nearly dying in the Blood of Olympus, Nico's powers haven't fully recovered in 1 the year since then, once he is around top 3. He can summon hoards of the undead, and his sword is also wicked, much deadlier, if he can hone his sword skills while his body and abilities recuperate, he will be a force to reckon with.
I agree with almost everything, but I believe Meg and Reyna should be a bit higher. Reyna because even though her powers don’t work well 1v 1, in the book series she used them very well being able to accomplish things people with the same abilities would have been able to. Then Meg, (I’m going off what another comment said so I would sound similar) is probably one of the most powerful children of Demeter and she can teleport using plants which can be used to her advantage a lot. She can also summon peach which I believe is a pretty rare ability, adding onto all that she was trained by both Lu and Nero allowing her to have excellent fighting skills. Ah that was long, but other than those two demigods I agree with everything else :)
It's more than evident that Percy is the most powerful demigod alive.... But I wonder if Nico would become the strongest as he ages. They're both children of the big three, and Nico definitely has incredible powers, that's why they take such a toll on his body. Maybe as he grows physically stronger, he'll be unbeatable.
I dont think that Nico will be better than Percy, but he at least will be able to stand his ground. Swordmanship alone is incomparable between the two, the only thing giving Percy a hard time would be the deadly touch I think, but Percys agility and Battle IQ are also above Nicos. Also Nicos Powers exhaust him too much, and probably will always leave a big gap in stamina everytime he uses them, while Percy can just dip into a bit of water and be the completely refreshed.
If we're including hosts, i think carter and sadie's uncle deserves a spot in the top 5, sure he doesn't have too many feets of pure fighting, but he is the first choice for chief lecturn after old guy and ice cream dude, and it was implied that the chief lecturn was supposed to be stronger than the pharoah in order to protect him. Plus he's the host of set, one of the top gods in that pantheon, which means 2 things 1. Anything we saw set do in red pyramid, he can probably do to a lesser extent 2. He runs off chaos instead of order, meaning the worse things get on the battlefield, he probably gets stronger
Okay, I just think that Meg should be higher on this list. I mean she’s probably one of the most powerful demigods of Demeter considering she can use plants to teleport, flick fruit, and enhance growing of plants, including many more. Not to mention being trained by Lu and Nero makes her fighting really great and she’s not even a teenager.
Those were really amazing points and I agree with them all! I put Meg so low because of her age, her lack of experience, and just because we haven’t really seen too much of her powers
@@itzshadow8 Meg is in the same category as Jason, Percy and Nico - her godly parent, Demeter, comes from the same generation of gods as the Big Three. She could achieve similar levels of power.
another point about leo is that, yes, octavian helped killed gaia (though even the books admit it was mostly leo) but leo had planned to kill gaia by himself with his powers, which puts him really high. He disintegrated GAIA, the most powerful primordial goddess
I don't see a lot of people mentioning these points so ill put them here. First, that time when Percy was cleaning those horse stables and summoned so much water from small fossilized shells, because "Everything used to be underwater" a power that kind of got forgotten about which basically makes him overpowered considering he doesn't even need a water source nearby to summon large amounts of water. Second of all, when Percy fought Hyperion in TLO when he first summoned a hurricane. It described flickers of lightning in his storm. I think that also got overlooked later but man, lightning as a son of Poseidon. Finally the evolution of his powers. Again, the first time we see the hurricane its described as small and around him only. In demigods and magicians its described as the size of a cul-de-sac. Pretty huge.
Honestly i agree with most pick but i really think you did reyna dirty. I mean even piper in blood of olympus said that she should probably be banned from capture the flag because she probably could go solo against all of the chb and still win. Also zoe should probably be in the list at the bottom 5
Totally forgot about Zoe, but I can see Reyna taking Meg or Luke’s spot. I just put her so low because her demigod powers were pretty useless in a 1v1, and ppl like Annabeth and Luke I feel are better fighters
@@pjoworld honestly i dont think annabeth is a better fighter and still since shhe os a roman demigod she mostly will be fighting in a legion which means her powers will usually be useful
@@tolis19 I can see why some would think Reyna is a better fighter, however for this video, I based it off of a 1v1 circumstance so Reyna wouldn’t have any allies and her powers wouldn’t be helpful
Agree. Like she went through Mediterranean sea alone to catch up the Seven only with her pegasus. Also, if Frank and Clarisse mentioned to be blessed by Ares/Mars in this vid, so Reyna's blessings from Athena and Bellona and win against Orion without a comrades should be considered too
I think that now that TSATS has been released Will should be on here somewhere around annabeth or Reyna since he fought the goddess of night one of the only things zues himself is afraid of, and won, especially since he was a son of Apollo, in Tartarus, without the sun, extremely dazed and tired and is able to give people sicknesses. During all of that he even said to Nyx “Gross. Please cover your void when you sneeze”
Huzzah Leo has made it in the top 5. He'd always been my favorite character. He's a genius who built the Argo 2, lots of gadgets that helped the demigods, has fire immunity, can toss balls of fire at his opponents, and even ignite himself aflame. Not to mention unlike any other hero, he made a sacrifice to end Gaeas reign by allowing himself to be killed by Octavian with Gaea in Festus's grasp. No other hero has willingly sacrificed themselves like he has.
"Many people might disagree with Leo being in the top 5" Me: "If a character can 1v1 a goddess and actually come out on top with no outside interference in his favor, they are AT LEAST top 5 unless we have 5 stronger characters that have 1v1'd a god"
That's not true, Percy has done that uncountable times. First he sacrifices himself by fighting ARES one on one, then holding off the telekhines, agreeing to the prophecy even though he knew he might have gotten killed, agreeing to Nico's plan, carrying the sky, agreeing to fight Geae's son, and so many more times even I can't remember. So think twice before you say something like that
AGREED! I would have placed Leo at maybe top 3. I believe he is so often overlooked. I mean, that dude is really smart, probably close to Annabeth's level. If he is smart enough to build a whole flying ship and those crazy iventions, he has to be pretty good. He is also very witty, he often gets out of tight trouble really fast and easily. With his fire abilities and talent to be able to build literally ANYTHING, he could be extremely powerful if only they didn't repress his full powers.
Leo deserves more credit where it’s due. Never liked how he was the 7th wheel in the crew. He did so much from behind the scenes, he built the Argo 2 and repaired it himself after it gets damaged. He used his wits to escape dangerous situations and he spent gods know how long building the Argo possibly without breaks or sleep.
@@cjtrules1 a lot of people compare them. It’s kinda funny to see the Potter nerds try to argue Harry can touch Percy when Percy has magic resistance, his weapon comes back(nulling Harry’s best spell), he can use powers without an item boosting him, and he is faster, stronger and smarter than Harry ever is
@@dannywilsn Magic resistance doesn't mean he can't be hurt by magic because Percy can. Use Sectumsempra on him and he's dead. Percy's powers are all water dependent obviously and Harry can literally turn water into other substances or make it disappear. The fight is dependent on if Harry uses dark magic and how knowledgable he is. Adult Harry, the one who is the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement would probably do very well against Percy. I say they are incomparable because they literally are. Harry's magic is 100% different than Percy's magic. Percy's main strength isn't even his powers, it's his fighting ability which is all useless against a wizard like Harry.
@@cjtrules1 ahh yes- the bleeding spell on the guy who- since we are using best feats- can bloodbend. Percy can control any liquid, including that already in a person(seen when he fixed Jason’s lungs). The fight is dependent on if Percy decides to show mercy. Percy is faster(can dodge bullets), stronger(easily picking up and throwing people), has higher durability(even with magic in the picture, since he is resistant to magic from the Kane’s which is godly magic), his Battle IQ is higher(Percy generally outsmarts most his enemies in combat), his gear the only true downside, but I don’t think he really needs Riptide for this fight.
@@dannywilsn without water he can’t heal those wounds and it takes sufficient concentration to “blood bend”. Harry can fire off more spells after that. Once Percy over exerts himself he’s done. Harry can also apparrate so have fun getting to him. See this can go back and forth forever because we are talking about two separate universes. I love Percy Jackson and the universe Rick created but trying to say Percy easily defeats Harry or vice versa is foolish. There are a lot of factors in play you have to consider. This isn’t a simple Percy & Harry meet and fight situation.
I haven't even thought about this series in years but this video popped up into my recommended and now I'm right back in 6th grade ready to binge read the whole series for the fifth time!
I'm sick with the spicy cough rn so I was browsing and suddenly stumbled upon this. It's been a hot minute since my Riordanverse phase but this was pretty interesting ngl. Nice evaluations!
I think one of percys best feats is fighting the ghost army in "The Son of Neptune". It was an entire cohort of roman demigods, with their eagle, decked out with enough imperial gold gear to supply the whole legion (which is what happens). And percy destroys them all single handedly. Actually insane feat. I really believe percy could smoke the other 6 of the prophecy combined.
I defeated the god of fighting at age 12, defeated both the Minotaur and Medusa at age 12, outsmarted and escaped Hades at age 12, beat the general of Kronos is army at 15, *HELD UP THE SKY* ,helped defeat the hydra,Mastered using water at age 15, befriended over 12 demigods and five gods, found and retrievers Zeus’s lightning bolt after it got stolen by Aries, *LEARNED BLOOD,LAVA AND ANY OTHER LIQUID.* and I am still alive.
In defence of the Kane Chronicles and the Magnus Chase trilogy, they weren’t as fleshed out or heightened up as the Graeco-Roman contingent, mostly from their respective series being only 3 books long while Percy & Co sported a pentalogy that had 2 follow-up series.
I feel like Jason should be a little bit higher but it can't be helped, I guess. He really was dealt the short end of the stick throughout the books but when he did go all out, it was glorious. For example, when he and percy were possessed by the eidalons, they were pretty much equally matched, but piper stopped Jason before he could do anything worse. Not saying he's equal to percy but I'd like to believe he'd be top 5 if he was given more chances to go all out.
Heyyy!! You missed one the son of Hecate. Though he isnt mentioned in the main books HE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED!!!! For those who are confused, Albaster , son of hecate fought along with Kronos in the war of Manhattan because Hecate said that kronos will most probably win and many of hecate's children fought with camp half blood resulting to death of many!! He is referred by Hecate as her most powerful child and his control on magic is more than hazel. He could easily make up a live illusion as his companion hide himself and attack on his sister at the same time with ease. He actually had a biiiig grudge against percy as percy defeated kronos. So albaster said he would go to camp half blood only to show Percy Jcakson his place and give him what he deserves. This all happened between the last olympian and the lost hero. Though his descion was wrong to support kronos, he still is more powerful than hazel and piper. He is in the demigod diaries, The son of Magic, written by Haley Rick Riordan (Son of rick riordan)
Exactly. Sure, Percy is *oblivious* but he hides his intelligence and cleverness. Annabeth is a daughter of Athena and Percy's girlfriend, but that doesn't mean that we should overlook the fact that Percy is super smart. He just doesn't like to deliberately show it. Same with Leo. He doesn't like to show to show his pain and intelligence until it is required.
am i the only one who believes jason was beginning to truely (re)discover himself, and become more powerful before his untimely demise? there’s a few examples of this in the burning maze. the most obvious one is just the sheer number of lightning bolts he was able to summon on the fleet of ships when before it was draining for him to just do a singular one. i could be wrong but i think he had the most potential out of anyone on this list but it was stumped multiple times (most notably when he lost his memory and basically had to relearn his powers) for all we know jason could have been significantly stronger before he lost his memory (which was not properly restored like percy’s)
I do not agree with him having the most potential, just because, as many other comments already mentioned, Percy has the power of Earthquakes which he never used, can pretty much blood bend, and also heal and revitalise when only even touching water. So he can just dip his hand in water and won't be exhausted anymore wich is pretty much OP, and as we all know water is pretty much everywhere. And also comparing swordsmanship Percy is way above, I mean he dueled Ares when he was 12... thats pretty much unthinkable for literally anyone else on the list. ( btw already hyped for that part in the series coming up)
I think Jason is restricted by the way he grew up in Camp Jupiter. They are going for teamwork and strategic moves as a legion, while Camp Half-Blood Philosphy is "nobody is going to help you outside", u need to surive by yourself or at least have some teamwork in a small group. If Jason will free himself, he could get more powerful, but he could never overcome the expierence of Percy.
Jason doesn’t even have more potential than Frank much less Percy or Nico and his best feat is bringing down Krios with his bare hands, after attacking the mount Tampalis with the legion. While Percy’s feat of beating Ares in a battle to first blood is already better than that and he was 12
@@theonlyace1724 I agree camp half blood you learn to fend for yourself before you learn to work together and it makes them better at individual combat
If the series made a shred of sense, Jason would be the best demigod alive. Trained as a demigod since he was a baby, and son of the most powerful god. Both experience and genetics. But Rick made Percy so OP it's laughable, I don't know why he did that. He barely has a third of Jason's training, and has worse genetics. Same with Nico. But well, I guess the series isn't made to make sense, just to be entertaining.
Once nico is healthier and older and more experienced then he’s going to be even more powerful. Only reason he’s not higher is that he’s one of the youngest demigods rn and he’s physically and mentally in bad shape. Damn all these kids need therapy.
I would want Nico's power without a doubt. I think Percy is the most skilled demigod. I don't really think his power had very much to do with defeating many of the monsters he faced as a twelve year old. But once he got the hang of them he could use his powers easier and they did have something to do with him defeating monsters. Because this list was talking about powers more so rather than skill or the ability to use said powers, I feel that Nico is the most powerful demigod although, yes, his physical state prevents him from using his powers as well as Percy does. Feel free to comment your opinion. | V
I do agree tho I think his powers wouldnt be that optimal in daily life. So I guess I'd choose some other power. I think I'd choose Annabeths or Leos Abilities considering that u could actually earn money from them and they will be of use in many situations. ( not entirely sure anymore on how Hazels curse works, cause damn finding ressouces would be a cheatcode )
percy’s the most powerful there’s water in almost everything and he can control that water he’s skilled and can make hurricanes and storms at will he’s also pretty smart nico would be second even he says percy is the most powerful look percy beat the god if war when he was 12
I mean Will pre the sun and star has no feats besides being a healer. Octavian literally has no feats beside getting bullied and Silena again has no feats aside from dying neg and assumed stronger charmspeak than Drew.
Apart from being a phenomenal healer, Will doesn’t really have feats until The Sun and Star. Silena is a great character, but was never really powerful, apart from her Charmspeak (and unlike Piper, we don’t really have a lot of development regarding her powers). Octavian is dangerous because of his political meddling, but that’s about it. Only reason the bastard didn’t die sooner was because of his influence, cos Reyna would’ve murdered him after he stabbed Gwen had Mars not shown up. Like, he is not even a demigod, he is a legacy and a poor one at that. As a matter of fact, his only two abilities (political speaker and receiving prophecies) are easily topped by Reyna and Rachel respectively (the latter being the mortal Oracle of Delphi). Silena and Will lack more time to develop their abilities. Octavian literally wouldn’t hold his own against a mortal.
I mostly agree, I didn't read all of the books but only based on statements made by some of the demigods it's clear that Percy is the strongest, Leo is among the five strongest, and Nico is among the top strongest as well. I always say that Nico when he gets to Percy's age in 'heroes of Olympus' he would be stronger than Percy was at the time, and his only handicap is the age gap
I actually can't 🤣 I am sure this is a really informative video but I couldn't stop laughing. The zoom in franks little arm and saying 'powerful' I had to pause and so a lap of my house to stop laughing🤣
Personally, I would put Reyna way, way higher, since I think (and I might be wrong) that Annabeth thinks Reyna could beat her. And Reyna can beat Thalia with ease, who can beat Annabeth, so I think she should be in the top ten. (Totally not a bit of bias on my part, but Reyna's amazing.)
I haven’t watched this yet but this is my opinion; I feel like Annabeth is the most powerful cuz like yeah she doesn’t really have any powers but she does have PRIVILEGE over Percy- “stop killing this horrible goddess in a gruesome way” “aight” 😭
Lets be honest, if Percy had fallen into Tartauras alone (with changes to the situations he finds himself in so he survives reasonably), we would end up just getting a god in a mortal body.
I think we already pretty much do. Considering his powers alone he has pretty much EVERYTHING Poseidon / Neptune can do. And then he has a better combat IQ and Swordsmanship than mfucking Ares. The God of Fighting/ War, and also one of the best leadership prowess.
i hope if rick makes anymore books he goes into depth on the extent of percy’s water powers like if he can blood blend or make water boil/freeze and if he can increase the water pressure, since percy is a good person tho i doubt he’ll actually use blood bending in a fight unless he’s already in the angered state after controlling poison or just really pissed off for any other reason
Reyna literally embarrassed thalia in a mock fight sure thalia didn't use lightining but reyna was binded, unarmed and surrounded in a room filled with hunters
ok but humans are 72 percent water so Percy could control us like that, and we also know that he can control other liquids (the poison in tartarus). He could literally just like squash us and control our every move.
Nico is actually the oldest living demigod having been trapped in the Lotus Hotel for a few centuries. But he does tire easily, and I think that’s because he’s had no one to properly train him.
I love both Alex and Nico and I have to say... I exactly agree with were you pit them. Im a vit bias, but you make an extremely valid point about Nico 💚🖤
Percy Jackson cause yes Nico’s power with his potential is crazy. His powers could very well be the greatest gift ever, but healing from water is just way too good, especially since Percy also probably hasn’t unlocked or gotten all his powers to full capacity. I want to be able to be unbeatable in rain. I’m choosing Percy
Look, a millenia-old enchantment (Lotus Casino), which probably strengthens with time, couldn't even completely hold him back. He straight breaks through charmspeak.
You mean her smell? Remember the smell gets stronger when you find out your a demigod and children of the big 3 are just naturally easier to sniff out by monsters so going by just that their all stronger than her.
Annabeth is underrated she is the brains of the 7. If she hadn’t defeated Arachne, the romans and Greeks would not unite and so on.. broo she literally held the sky, helped fight akhlys and nyx……. She is really underrated. AND THAT ISN’T FAIR.
Yes i think shes so underrated when it comes to power, im on the lost hero so correct me if im wrong but she had no powers so she had to rely on her self and books for everything, percy and a few others had all the power in the world , he relyed on his father to answer is prayers. If it came to fighting without any powers percy woukd be a little bit lower
I feel like Alex wasn't high enough on this list. Not only could he become any animal, but she was also immortal and had superhuman strength, speed and durability courtesy of Valhalla. His garotte was also enchanted and a weapon crafted by a god, meaning it is most likely unbreakable.
Nico di Angelo has survived Tartarus twice and you call him weak.. One of those times was alone, and he was also the first to do it. Percy wouldn't have survived once without Bob who only assisted Nico on the second time. Percy wouldn't have survived if it wasn't for Nico being kind to Bob. Percy needed Annabeth and would have died almost instantly if it wasn't for her. Meanwhile Nico survived twice, on the go, also survived Nyx and had to SAVE the titan who had to save Percy. Surely, Nico struggled a lot, and definitely left with more trauma and physical weakness. But can you blame him? He survived that alone, saw the true Tartarus beyond what others would see, and lived to tell the tale
I think we should have gotten more development with Percy from the books. A quick review of his powers: Control of water, breathes and heals from it-maybe even invincible in it Can cause earthquakes Can summon a hurricane Best swordsman Flight via Pegasus Shadow travel via helldog Underrated intelligence (like leo he’s quickly thought of solutions to bad situations and multiple characters describe him as smarter than he lets on) -he lacks long term strategy and big picture thinking but with Annabeth he has that too Control of liquids That last one is really interesting because he can control poisons. I’ve been really curious on whether he can control blood and “blood bend.” I think a darker mature book could feature him using badass but also downright evil powers to wring people out and pull blood and water from their bodies, basically being a blood god
That rap was so good haha it was like an argument of Marvel and DC fans. After some point they saying ''no feats'' so you just jumped to his feats from Percy's powers nice choice!
Not really? I mean kinda? It was more of a win cause of the rules of the duel/Kronos saved him. Basically, Percy goads Ares into making it a sword fight making 95% of Ares’ power set nil. Percy and Ares fight, Ares is playing around and generally not taking it with even a sliver of seriousness. Then Percy sends a 6ft tall wave right into his face, and stabs his heel while he’s distracted. Then Ares goes to kill Percy, then Kronos stops Ares from killing him, Ares curses Percy, and then leaves. So, I mean, you’re technically right that Percy won the duel? But A) Most of Ares’ power set was considered off limit due to the rules of the duel B) Percy is a scrawny 12 year old so nobody was taking him seriously (including himself) C) Percy was immediately saved by someone else after getting first blood So it’s really not viable as a power scaling situation.

That's a tough one Frank's would be so cool percy's would be awesome but I agree with hazel she's uncursed so I could be rich and mist powers would be awesome
Shadow teleportation
Prob either Frank's ability to shape shift or Percys water.
Also one thing that's often overlooked - Percy did cause that Volcano to erupt in the battle of the labyrinth so it could very well be possible that he might have access to the Earthshaker powers from his dad but they are just dormant for now.
He erupted it cut he summoned water from his body, the water evaporated, and the lagre amounts of steam caused super high pressure that blew up the volcano
@@ubel539 I like that Percy has the ability to create water. Because, if he was in a place with zero water and was very hot he can't use water (his primary source of power). But, he doesn't use it all the time because it's draining.

I love to imagine Nico's potential when he's older - perhaps Percy's age (16-17). If he can do so much at the young age he's at, I really want to see where his powers would take him and what new talents he could unlock as he grows and is able to harness his power easily and with fewer endurance setbacks.

If I could remember, all Hercules have done when he was a demigod, Percy managed to top it all at the age of 17. He doubled all of Hercules’ feats and accomplishments
He did even better. Spoilers ahead for the Chalice of the Gods in case someone didn’t read it:
In order to acquire the Chalice and return it to Ganymede, Percy challenged Geras (the god of old age) to a fight. Being the deity of old age, Geras has the weight of millennia on his shoulders and is practically impossible to beat in a duel of strength. Only one demigod had even managed to bring Geras to a draw, that being Hercules.
Percy is about to lose the fight when he reflects on how he’d love to grow old with Annabeth and Grover and realizes that he shouldn’t be scared of old age, for he chose to live his life when he turned down inmortality and he should enjoy life for what it is. Percy hugs Geras, telling he loves him (as in, he loves the life he wants for him and values Geras’ sacrifice). Geras is touched, because nobody ever valued old age and therefore nobody cared about him.
By showing Geras that he cared, Percy did even better than Hercules (who we are told several times that he was the biggest jerk in Ancient Greece).
I always recall how Percy was bloodbending and Nico turned a living person into a gostly shadow. Yeah, you don't mess with them.
I thought it was poison he was bending
@@tja3567 it was both
@@tja3567 He controlled Akhlys's poison, tears, saliva, and whatever other liquid on her he could think of, then separately he bent the Rivers of the Underworld out of Tartarus's "veins" at the Doors of Death. He's never specifically called out as manipulating blood (I reread the books a few days ago), but he compares the rivers in Tartarus to his blood a while before weaponizing them
He’s never blood bended. Just making stuff up now
nico was so badass at that time
Percy is both incredibly powerful as the son of poseidon as well incredibly capable as a warrior not to mention despite not being the smartest his battle iq is actually incredibly high
And that's ignoring the possibility and more than likely fact that we haven't seen what he's truly capable of
honestly I think percy is quite smart though because things were just not explained to him after he was thrown into the world but he actually has an incredible memory and seemed quite smart. like I was reading the books again this week and he was remembering things he learnt in Mr Brunner class in the last olympian. I think everyone just played him down as stupid even though he actually isn't and he has a really hi battle iq as well
@@laramcguire7520 Currently rereading HoO and like, Percy's really pretty damn good at deducing things from limited information.
Naw I would say percy was one of the smartest actually, he just had low self esteem and a good sense of humor, so he would often make fun of himself
@@jeanpaul4095 Fr the oldest we’ve seen him is what,18? So much more to grow if he stayed a hero full time
Nico himself said that when he stands beside Percy, it feels like he's beside a god. Standing against tartarus himself is just crazy, this kid is a war machine
That's true and it's amazing to think that Percy is like a god but then Nico when he heals and is like 20? Will probably be like that!
@@EmiBarker Hazel also thought he was a god when he first showed up to camp jupiter
frr percy and annabeth would have died in tartarus if they didn’t find Bob nico is a legend
also the fact that he had to keep secrets between the existence of the camps is crazy
I believe Annabeth is really underrated in terms of powers. Yes she has no “magic” except her insane intelligence, but she is an extremely skilled fighter which we often forget. She managed to survive on her own at age 7 before finding Luke and Thalia, she has such knowledge on myths that she knows how to defeat enemies way more easily than others. So of cours she is not like Percy or Leo; but at least she surpasses Piper. By a lot. In terms of experience, also 1v1 combat. Yes Piper has charmspeak but if someone can escape it it’s annabeth. My girl doesn’t get enough credit 😭
i thought her surviving was cuz athena was watching over her, also i thought it was hinted that athena was the reason annabeth met luke and thalia
@@ashanteunderwood3736 yes athena did help her a bit; but we have to keep in mind that gods are allowed very few interventions in demigods path, even more regarding their children. She did not receive much more help than any of the other 7
When it comes to Annabeth we have to remember the information that we have also gotten about her family with in the Magnes Chase book There is so much more to Annabeth that we don't even know
Yeah I’d put her above piper cause she’s smart enough not to lose to charmspeak and she’s a way better fighter than piper
Powers and abilities are different things, fighting is something they all can learn, she's good at it because she fights since she was 7yo. But if it was a list based on the best demigods, she'd definitely be top 3
Percy Jackson has saved the world multiple times, he's on another level. They don't really mention what Jason has done before. Nico I can understand being up top he's able to not only teleporr himself but other people and he moved a giant statue that is about 2 to 3 stories tall. But percy has fought almost every Greek monster known and unknown at this point. He's fought God's, titans, and Giants, in the later books he chokes a goddess with her own poison for Zeus sake. Honestly gods should fear Percy at this point.
Jason fought during the war with Cronos, that’s about all we know from his past life
Jason also slaughtered a Trojan sea monster I’m pretty sure, not really saving the world but I think it should be noted
They do fear him, why do you think wanted to kill him when they found out about him? Remember the Gods know the faith of every demigod, they know what they're capable of
Percy also beat Ares in a duel in the first book
Hah, they do.
Nico the prince of Hell. You can literally teleport yourself and have skeleton slaves. Who has powers as cool as Nico?
Percy drowned a goddes of misery and poison with her own domain
@@Inacio04-20 why would you want an army of mermaids (which are useless above water) when you could have an army of hellhounds?

Another kind reminder that Annabeth held the sky for around an entire day but no one remembers cuz they were focused on Percy holding it for all of 5 minutes
I definitely didn’t forget, it was incredible! However I didn’t bring it up cuz I don’t see how that would help her in a 1v1
Nah I just meant everyone complimenting Percy in the comments 😂
I refuse to accept that because Annabeth has the stupidest character traits for that. She’s literally a contradiction of herself, i don’t understand where Rick was going with her
@@myusernameisnotthis ?
@@myusernameisnotthis please give examples
I think it's pretty obvious Percy should be one but the crazy part is that he still has much more potential since he hasn't tapped into that Neptune side of his god powers with earthquakes which would make an already considered strongest demigod into a undisputed #1 demigod
He did use his earthquake Powers before, when he destroyed that volcano....... Hephaestus visted him later on in the book and told him.
@Elaina Miller Was it? I gotta read the books again. But there was also that time where he Destroyed that Bridge in Last Olympian. The one that killed Micheal yew I think. I do remember hepeastus mentioning to Percy something like this
"you're the son of the Earthshaker lad"..... Percy at that time was on calypsos island.
Percy is the most powerful demigod said by Nico himself. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong.
I feel like Thalia should be higher, she has the blessing of artemis which makes her faster and a bit stronger than normal demigods. She went toe to toe with Percy and she defeated Luke with her combat skills.
I totally agree! She’s basically semi-immortal. Rick nerfed her by making her afraid of heights. She would have been so much more powerful if she could fly and control the winds
Yup we can agree
The thing is demigods become more powerful as they age. And, Thalia couldn't handle 13 years old Percy when she was 16. In fact, Percy was going to win when Oracle interrupted. As for speed and strenght, while she may be far stronger and faster than normal demigods(due to her being a child of big three) she is still far weaker and slower than Jason, Percy, Nico. When Percy and Jason fought, Piper said that she couldn't see them. And, the same Piper saw giants in slow motion. The thing that makes her seem powerful is her character and courage. Other, than that she hasn't done anything impressive to match Argo 2 demigods.
@@Kbax3614 Okay.... But you gotta remember that Thalia has been a tree for almost 7/6 years so when she lost against Percy is understandable why? Percy at that age still had some training while Thalia on the other hand has been surviving on the streets since she was 11 l think. She's self thaught, she didn't get the training percy got from chiron, nico from ghost in the underworld and Jason from Camp Jupiter. And to defeat Luke who's been called as the best swordsman in 300 years is a big deal. Luke could probably go toe to toe with jason in terms of combat. In that creek fight, let's be real here....... I love percy but without the water he would've been a roasted fish. The water kept healing him while thalia on the other hand had no healing powers. She also got the blessing of artemis which makes her stronger and faster and the fact that she's a child of the big three, that makes her one hell of a demigod. They srsly nerfed her by making her afraid of heights. Ofc at the moment she's not as powerful as Jason, Percy or Nico but she has the potential to be atleast more powerful than Jason and Nico. She deserves to be higher on this list. I would've given her Leo's spot. Thunder, lightning beats Fire from what we've learned from Avatar TLA. And leo has no combat skills as good as Thalia. No way in hell are Frank, Leo, Piper (Maybe) and Hazel stronger than her.
She never actually went “toe to toe” with Percy. They had a confrontation back when Percy was 14. She sent a lightning bolt at him (her literal strongest attack), he recovered in 3 seconds, and lifted an entire creek that would’ve drowned her with little to no effect.
Now, during and after HOO, Percy is far far far more powerful than he was then, and we really don’t know how powerful she is rn. If you’re using that lopsided confrontation from when they were 14, that doesn’t apply right now.
A reminder for the Nico fan club, no he is not more powerful than Percy. Nico is very powerful (and should be tied for second on this list) but, Percy is in his own league currently(who knows what will happen in the solangelo book).
Yup Nico is powerful but to me he is a glass cannon. He can dish out a lot of damage, but he is young and his powers take a lot of energy. We see what shadowtravel does to Nico, when he first learned how to do it it kept knocking him out.
Percy meanwhile is just an all round good fighter. Everything about him is just legendary, and he’s more experienced than Nico. Literally every character (including Nico and Hazel I believe) say that he’s the most powerful demigod they’ve seen
Percy is TOO powerful
@Percy Potter its been confirmed, there is no title yet but its being co-written by rick riordan and mark oshiro
@Percy Potter
It’s not a series, it’s just one book. But it has been confirmed and if I’m correct, the writing part of the process is already done and it’s coming out next year.
@@AbolaSpartan I think Nico has a ton of potential
maybe not be as powerful as Percy, but he's only 15
and he gets more powerful as he grows
so come time
he could absolutely be one of the most powerful demigods ever
Personally, I think Hazel's powers are really underrated. She killed the guards to the library incredibly fast in the Tyrant's Tomb, she's able to teleport two different ways, and she was able to use her mist control to defeat a much more experienced sorceress with phenomenal powers.
Yeah putting her below Leo is insane, she’s fast enough that Pipers charmspeak wouldn’t help
Honestly how would even Percy beat her.
She single-handedly stopped Gaea from rising as a CHILD who had never been trained in combat, so raw power alone. Being able to control the most in insanely OP on its own, and that’s without touching her Pluto powers, knwoledge of the underground, her gems and precious metals, the curses she was able to inflict unintentionally, plus on a physical level she’s a highly trained Roman soldier who has literally the fastest horse to ever live, talk about a frightening cavalry. But yeah control over the Mist alone is like top five minimum.
I just realized that Percy will most likely be 18ish by the next series of books. He will be one of the few Demi gods to make it to adulthood. this also opens up room for KIDS.
Rick has stated that he doesn’t want to make Percy age, so I think most of the future series that we’re going to get are going to be extremely close to one another, overlapping a lot. Some might even be prequels.
@@coldermusic2729 that's good
@@Wembo_o
Not really. As the fans of the series grow older, they become less likely to read the newer books. The character growing up alongside the readers, as well as the maturity of the books increasing, could lead to fans sticking around longer.
Yes… new young kids would be coming to he series as he years go by, but the numbers would be ever decreasing.
But it depends entirely on what Rick wants to do. And whatever he decides is neither better or worse then the other options he had.
If he wants to continue the series similar to Harry Potter, having the protagonist and maturity of the series increase as the original fans age, we’re here to support it.
If he wants to keep it in the teenager demographic, and continue making stories with younger characters, then we’re also here to support it.
@@coldermusic2729 I mean like if he just grow from the last book is 17, then next book 21, it's a big jump

Truthfully, if Percy had gone to Tartarus alone, he would’ve been ten times more powerful. For example: Without Annabeth stopping him, he would’ve learned how to bloodbend. He also would’ve had the ability to control the river Styx.
( Edit: I see yall’s points; I didn’t think about that lol- 😭)
That’s actually very interesting to think about! Maybe I’ll make a video about it
Agree, but he will also be ten times less humane when he comes back, if he can come back even

Very true points on Nico! He’s my favourite by far but id really love to see his capabilities when he isn’t drained or hurt as well as older. The more he trains and the better his endurance using his abilities the more powerful he’d become. I really can’t wait to see more of him!
See, I agree that Percy is probably the most powerful, but I think he's probably the only Riordanverse character I can think of who I would classify as overpowered. Nico comes close, but the fact that you talked about that using his powers too much exhausts him is enough to tip him out of that zone for me. Percy, however, has weaknesses, but they have almost nothing to do with his powers.
Why did Frank get nerfed, It should be Percy
Lol, Percy can also control the earth, remember what he did at the battle of the labyrinth, he has not just tapped into that power yet
@@mndhmonkepineaplegang Because Frank, as son of one of the most powerful/important Roman gods (which can also bestow literal temporary invincibility to his children if they're worthy enough) plus he's a descendant of Neptune, with the powers of Periclymenus (which allows him to "be anything" according to his family and Mars, so he's not limited to animals and the fact that Mars agrees with "anything" means that if he familiarizes himself enough with anything from mythology he can become it). In theory, Frank can become Percy, end his attack as Nico, and then finish you off by stomping on you as Typhon
fr hes so overpowered
He’s circumstantial though. Unless he’s at sea, carter would beat him in a 1v1
I’m not disagreeing that Percy is the strongest, but can we please note that both Annabeth, and Luke held the sky? Both for longer than him?
I think that has more to do with will
Percy easily could’ve gone longer but he had to trick atlas into taking the sky dummy.
@@pedro31871Luke is a better swordsman but idk about raw strength
As Artemis said, that required will, not strength. If it was strength based the three of them would have Superman strength levels.
Annabeth had Artemis’s blessing and Percy had a broken arm.
I really feel like Leo deserves his spot on the list because there is no greater power than intelligence
He could probably outthink most of the people above him and his ability to work under harsh conditions is something truly admirable
Also I’m biased towards him HES MY FAVORITE
Right, it sorta comes down to the Batman dilemma. We all know Batman vs Superman doesn't end well for Batman assuming Superman isn't messing around. But Batman with prep time probably wins every time. If Leo can workshop the problem he can win. But say someone just walks up and stabs him in the throat with no warning - he's far from immortal, and he isn't a demigod of healing. Cauterization would only get you so far considering internal bleeding. But I agree, it's remarkable how far the ability to make things can take you in a world of gods.
@@dissolution9843 The difference between Leo and Batman is that Batman is an incredible strategist. This, however is something that Leo lacks.
@@mysticturtle997 I mean, I wouldn't say he's on par with Batman, but he's shown to be an incredible strategist in the books. For instance, once he gets his hands on the Archimedes Sphere, he's practically unstoppable
@@dissolution9843 yeah, but leo actually has really strong powers, with very little thinking time (probably less than a day of prep) he could beat jason wih ease
Don’t forget He has crazy fire powers. The guy went supernova mode and literally blew up Gaia 😅 Seems most have forgotten that feat
Percy is so cool, and it’s also cool to see him grow from an inexperienced 12 year old to a legendary demigod going into college
Honestly I really agree with these ranking like I thought i would've been annoyed that nico wasn't #2 but your explanation about how all that he went through with tartarous and how it impacted his physical self made a lot of sense,
also I'm so fucking happy that you put the kane siblings so high because they are so powerful but not many people recognize that and I'm happy you did
Honestly Sadie could beat anyone on this list with a single word. Her magic is made to fight gods.
I think my favorite Percy feat comes at the end of Son of Neptune. Gianrs are built up as these horrifying anti-gods even more dangerous than titans that require demigods and gods to team up to defeat them. So what does Percy do when he meets one? Takes it down himself, of course, and smashes its face with a statue (of a god).
Percy hypothetically could have all 4 elements under his power. He gains earth and water and storms(air powers) all from his dad, and uses them all at least once. But he also is proven to be fireproof, multiple times.
He is not fireproof. He's fire resistant as a result of his heritage
@@almond4305 he has yet to actually be burned in a severe way, im calling that fireproof until something proves otherwise. Either way, resistance isn’t bad, considering homie shouldn’t have any fire at all. But nah, Manz went and casually became the Avatar
@@dannywilsn He was literally burning up in BOTL after his fire resistance ran out
I really like how you ranked it. The only thing I would change if it were me making up the list would be moving Reyna up a peg or two considering she could take on a giant pretty much single handedly in 5 minutes.
Percy has the theoretical power geokinesis (earthbending) to an extent. His father was the earth shaker, so it is possible
Nah, he didn't inherit geokinesis, he said it himself in one of the demigod side books. Which is a shame, really, I thought he had inherited it myself because he caused that gigantic eruption
@@arvoredeuva5485 he did use his earthquake powers in that volcano. Hephaestus mentioned it later on the book. Something bout " you forget that your father's called the Earthshaker something"
@@Inacio04-20 It was in The Battle of the Labyrinth when Percy set off Mount Saint Helens. This awakened Typhon and blew Percy to Calypso's Island. Hephaestus found him and updated him on what was happening in the world which is where you remember the quote about Poseidon being called Earthshaker.
Not only that- but he also has areokinetics and probably can do something with fire- being we’ve seen he is fireproof
@@dannywilsn hes fire proof because hes the son if Poseidon. You know water and all that. And how does Percy have aerokinetics? That Jason
annabeth should be higher, she has good stamina shown by her holding up the sky for A FULL WEEK while percy could barely hold it for 15 mins. She is a skilled knife fighter holdin Kronos at a stand still temporarily even though she was exhausted. In hand to hand combat she might be the best character we have seen so far, flipping percy over her head and defeating an arai with her bare hands. She and Jason would have been evenly matched (powers aside). An underrated character
1. Holding up the sky is a feat of will not strength
2. She could beat Jason in a fight WITH powers
Annabeth should absolutely be ranked higher(especially higher than piper this dudes on crack) and so should Clarisse
I don't know where you got the idea that she held the sky for a full week. Percy dreamed her taking it and Artemis relieving her in subsequent nights so at most she held it for 24 hours. However there is a good chance that him dreaming the events was not simultaneous with them taking place so it is likely she held it for a shorter amount of time.
@@kimicrewe4443 so, the son of the most powerful god who's been training since 2-3 years old now can't even defeat Annabeth? Come on now
@@Fenix-lr6ezAnnabeths been training since 7 and her combat skills are better than Jason’s
@@kimicrewe4443 and Jason's been training since 2-3, and again, his "divine" powers are extremely superior compared to Annabeth's, because of who their fathers respectively are
I know we all clicked on this to see the #1, while the whole time knowing exactly who it would be :)
Absolutely fantastic video bro! The editing and explanations you gave were very well done. I also thought it was awesome you tier ranked the characters. Also I agree with basically everything here lmao! 🤟
couldn't have said it better my self!!!
Do you guys know each other? Like in person?
After nearly dying in the Blood of Olympus, Nico's powers haven't fully recovered in 1 the year since then, once he is around top 3. He can summon hoards of the undead, and his sword is also wicked, much deadlier, if he can hone his sword skills while his body and abilities recuperate, he will be a force to reckon with.
If we look at the fourth book, Percy made the volcano erupt which means that he has earth shaker powers even if he doesn’t use them
If he used them regularly he’d just be too op lol. He’s already number one by a mile without them
4:15 “he (Jason) lives up to it”
No. No he doesn’t. He doesn’t live. Not anymore 😢
BRICK-CHAN
BRO NO
Too soon
@@infiniteplanes5775 wayyyy too soon. Im still not over it, and I probably never will be. Pun not intended
Lmao
I agree with almost everything, but I believe Meg and Reyna should be a bit higher. Reyna because even though her powers don’t work well 1v 1, in the book series she used them very well being able to accomplish things people with the same abilities would have been able to. Then Meg, (I’m going off what another comment said so I would sound similar) is probably one of the most powerful children of Demeter and she can teleport using plants which can be used to her advantage a lot. She can also summon peach which I believe is a pretty rare ability, adding onto all that she was trained by both Lu and Nero allowing her to have excellent fighting skills.
Ah that was long, but other than those two demigods I agree with everything else :)
Just re-reading this I when talking about Reyna I meant “people with the same abilities wouldn’t have been able to”
Is that from trials of Apollo???
I agree with you that Meg should be higher but Reyna should not be, Clarisse is the one who should be higher
Sadie Piper and Hazel should also all be higher
It's more than evident that Percy is the most powerful demigod alive.... But I wonder if Nico would become the strongest as he ages. They're both children of the big three, and Nico definitely has incredible powers, that's why they take such a toll on his body. Maybe as he grows physically stronger, he'll be unbeatable.
I dont think that Nico will be better than Percy, but he at least will be able to stand his ground. Swordmanship alone is incomparable between the two, the only thing giving Percy a hard time would be the deadly touch I think, but Percys agility and Battle IQ are also above Nicos. Also Nicos Powers exhaust him too much, and probably will always leave a big gap in stamina everytime he uses them, while Percy can just dip into a bit of water and be the completely refreshed.
Thalia might also be very deadly
If we're including hosts, i think carter and sadie's uncle deserves a spot in the top 5, sure he doesn't have too many feets of pure fighting, but he is the first choice for chief lecturn after old guy and ice cream dude, and it was implied that the chief lecturn was supposed to be stronger than the pharoah in order to protect him. Plus he's the host of set, one of the top gods in that pantheon, which means 2 things
1. Anything we saw set do in red pyramid, he can probably do to a lesser extent
2. He runs off chaos instead of order, meaning the worse things get on the battlefield, he probably gets stronger
He is set, bro is the literal god of death, step aside nico your dad(?) Is here.
@@ar-1535 i thought thst was Osiris-
If we include hosts, carter and Sadie are first. They are literally gods.
If we’re including hosts then where is Zia. She is the best non god fire user in verse!!
Okay, I just think that Meg should be higher on this list. I mean she’s probably one of the most powerful demigods of Demeter considering she can use plants to teleport, flick fruit, and enhance growing of plants, including many more. Not to mention being trained by Lu and Nero makes her fighting really great and she’s not even a teenager.
Those were really amazing points and I agree with them all! I put Meg so low because of her age, her lack of experience, and just because we haven’t really seen too much of her powers
Meg is actually stronger than Jason. In The Burning Maze, she easily kills several monsters that gave the latter a hard time.
Her being that young is the major reason why she can’t go any higher
@@valtersplume3726 u wish I wonder how Meg would do against a titan barehanded or better yet a giant in a cave both 1v1
@@itzshadow8 Meg is in the same category as Jason, Percy and Nico - her godly parent, Demeter, comes from the same generation of gods as the Big Three. She could achieve similar levels of power.
another point about leo is that, yes, octavian helped killed gaia (though even the books admit it was mostly leo) but leo had planned to kill gaia by himself with his powers, which puts him really high. He disintegrated GAIA, the most powerful primordial goddess
I don't see a lot of people mentioning these points so ill put them here.
First, that time when Percy was cleaning those horse stables and summoned so much water from small fossilized shells, because "Everything used to be underwater" a power that kind of got forgotten about which basically makes him overpowered considering he doesn't even need a water source nearby to summon large amounts of water.
Second of all, when Percy fought Hyperion in TLO when he first summoned a hurricane. It described flickers of lightning in his storm. I think that also got overlooked later but man, lightning as a son of Poseidon.
Finally the evolution of his powers. Again, the first time we see the hurricane its described as small and around him only. In demigods and magicians its described as the size of a cul-de-sac. Pretty huge.
Small correction, Carter is the Pharaoh, not Chief Lector. That title goes to Amos. Other than that, yeah, this is a pretty reasonable list
Honestly i agree with most pick but i really think you did reyna dirty. I mean even piper in blood of olympus said that she should probably be banned from capture the flag because she probably could go solo against all of the chb and still win. Also zoe should probably be in the list at the bottom 5
Totally forgot about Zoe, but I can see Reyna taking Meg or Luke’s spot. I just put her so low because her demigod powers were pretty useless in a 1v1, and ppl like Annabeth and Luke I feel are better fighters
@@pjoworld honestly i dont think annabeth is a better fighter and still since shhe os a roman demigod she mostly will be fighting in a legion which means her powers will usually be useful
@@tolis19 I can see why some would think Reyna is a better fighter, however for this video, I based it off of a 1v1 circumstance so Reyna wouldn’t have any allies and her powers wouldn’t be helpful
Agree. Like she went through Mediterranean sea alone to catch up the Seven only with her pegasus. Also, if Frank and Clarisse mentioned to be blessed by Ares/Mars in this vid, so Reyna's blessings from Athena and Bellona and win against Orion without a comrades should be considered too
zoe isnt a demigod
I think that now that TSATS has been released Will should be on here somewhere around annabeth or Reyna since he fought the goddess of night one of the only things zues himself is afraid of, and won, especially since he was a son of Apollo, in Tartarus, without the sun, extremely dazed and tired and is able to give people sicknesses. During all of that he even said to Nyx “Gross. Please cover your void when you sneeze”
Huzzah Leo has made it in the top 5. He'd always been my favorite character. He's a genius who built the Argo 2, lots of gadgets that helped the demigods, has fire immunity, can toss balls of fire at his opponents, and even ignite himself aflame. Not to mention unlike any other hero, he made a sacrifice to end Gaeas reign by allowing himself to be killed by Octavian with Gaea in Festus's grasp. No other hero has willingly sacrificed themselves like he has.
Leo's my favorite too. There's just so much to love about him. Except he took Calypso. I wish she was my girlfriend
"Many people might disagree with Leo being in the top 5"
Me: "If a character can 1v1 a goddess and actually come out on top with no outside interference in his favor, they are AT LEAST top 5 unless we have 5 stronger characters that have 1v1'd a god"
That's not true, Percy has done that uncountable times. First he sacrifices himself by fighting ARES one on one, then holding off the telekhines, agreeing to the prophecy even though he knew he might have gotten killed, agreeing to Nico's plan, carrying the sky, agreeing to fight Geae's son, and so many more times even I can't remember. So think twice before you say something like that
AGREED! I would have placed Leo at maybe top 3. I believe he is so often overlooked. I mean, that dude is really smart, probably close to Annabeth's level. If he is smart enough to build a whole flying ship and those crazy iventions, he has to be pretty good. He is also very witty, he often gets out of tight trouble really fast and easily. With his fire abilities and talent to be able to build literally ANYTHING, he could be extremely powerful if only they didn't repress his full powers.
Leo deserves more credit where it’s due. Never liked how he was the 7th wheel in the crew. He did so much from behind the scenes, he built the Argo 2 and repaired it himself after it gets damaged. He used his wits to escape dangerous situations and he spent gods know how long building the Argo possibly without breaks or sleep.
6:42 well that thought went out the window by the end of the sun and the star
People who think Harry Potter is stronger than Percy.. 🤡
Who is comparing these two!? They are literally in two completely different universes and powers/abilities are incomparable.
@@cjtrules1 a lot of people compare them. It’s kinda funny to see the Potter nerds try to argue Harry can touch Percy when Percy has magic resistance, his weapon comes back(nulling Harry’s best spell), he can use powers without an item boosting him, and he is faster, stronger and smarter than Harry ever is
@@dannywilsn Magic resistance doesn't mean he can't be hurt by magic because Percy can. Use Sectumsempra on him and he's dead. Percy's powers are all water dependent obviously and Harry can literally turn water into other substances or make it disappear. The fight is dependent on if Harry uses dark magic and how knowledgable he is. Adult Harry, the one who is the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement would probably do very well against Percy.
I say they are incomparable because they literally are. Harry's magic is 100% different than Percy's magic. Percy's main strength isn't even his powers, it's his fighting ability which is all useless against a wizard like Harry.
@@cjtrules1 ahh yes- the bleeding spell on the guy who- since we are using best feats- can bloodbend. Percy can control any liquid, including that already in a person(seen when he fixed Jason’s lungs).
The fight is dependent on if Percy decides to show mercy. Percy is faster(can dodge bullets), stronger(easily picking up and throwing people), has higher durability(even with magic in the picture, since he is resistant to magic from the Kane’s which is godly magic), his Battle IQ is higher(Percy generally outsmarts most his enemies in combat), his gear the only true downside, but I don’t think he really needs Riptide for this fight.
@@dannywilsn without water he can’t heal those wounds and it takes sufficient concentration to “blood bend”. Harry can fire off more spells after that. Once Percy over exerts himself he’s done. Harry can also apparrate so have fun getting to him.
See this can go back and forth forever because we are talking about two separate universes. I love Percy Jackson and the universe Rick created but trying to say Percy easily defeats Harry or vice versa is foolish. There are a lot of factors in play you have to consider. This isn’t a simple Percy & Harry meet and fight situation.
I love the video and agree with your rankings. One minor thing is that Carter Kane is the Pharaoh of the house of life, Amos is the Chief Lector
I haven't even thought about this series in years but this video popped up into my recommended and now I'm right back in 6th grade ready to binge read the whole series for the fifth time!
I'm sick with the spicy cough rn so I was browsing and suddenly stumbled upon this. It's been a hot minute since my Riordanverse phase but this was pretty interesting ngl. Nice evaluations!
I like the fact that all 3 main characters from each part are on top, Magnus Karter and Percy :)
I think one of percys best feats is fighting the ghost army in "The Son of Neptune". It was an entire cohort of roman demigods, with their eagle, decked out with enough imperial gold gear to supply the whole legion (which is what happens). And percy destroys them all single handedly. Actually insane feat. I really believe percy could smoke the other 6 of the prophecy combined.
love how you described drew
absolutely loved this list
nice bro amazing
So informational and inspiring!!
I defeated the god of fighting at age 12, defeated both the Minotaur and Medusa at age 12, outsmarted and escaped Hades at age 12, beat the general of Kronos is army at 15, *HELD UP THE SKY* ,helped defeat the hydra,Mastered using water at age 15, befriended over 12 demigods and five gods, found and retrievers Zeus’s lightning bolt after it got stolen by Aries, *LEARNED BLOOD,LAVA AND ANY OTHER LIQUID.* and I am still alive.
In defence of the Kane Chronicles and the Magnus Chase trilogy, they weren’t as fleshed out or heightened up as the Graeco-Roman contingent, mostly from their respective series being only 3 books long while Percy & Co sported a pentalogy that had 2 follow-up series.
What’s the defence for? The Kane siblings are two of the most powerful people on the riordanverse although Magnus does get hard carried by his sword
I feel like Jason should be a little bit higher but it can't be helped, I guess. He really was dealt the short end of the stick throughout the books but when he did go all out, it was glorious. For example, when he and percy were possessed by the eidalons, they were pretty much equally matched, but piper stopped Jason before he could do anything worse. Not saying he's equal to percy but I'd like to believe he'd be top 5 if he was given more chances to go all out.
I agree Jason is ranked criminally low along with Hazel and Frank, this dude has something against the Romans 😂 He should definitely be above Leo
Yoo Amazing Video as always
10/10
Thank you so much!
No problem! Your amazing you have no idea how grateful people are for you. You are amazing thank you.
Heyyy!! You missed one the son of Hecate. Though he isnt mentioned in the main books HE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED!!!!
For those who are confused, Albaster , son of hecate fought along with Kronos in the war of Manhattan because Hecate said that kronos will most probably win and many of hecate's children fought with camp half blood resulting to death of many!! He is referred by Hecate as her most powerful child and his control on magic is more than hazel. He could easily make up a live illusion as his companion hide himself and attack on his sister at the same time with ease. He actually had a biiiig grudge against percy as percy defeated kronos. So albaster said he would go to camp half blood only to show Percy Jcakson his place and give him what he deserves. This all happened between the last olympian and the lost hero. Though his descion was wrong to support kronos, he still is more powerful than hazel and piper.
He is in the demigod diaries, The son of Magic, written by Haley Rick Riordan (Son of rick riordan)
Something that I see overlooked is that Percy is actually smart, we’re just used to him being dumber compared to Anabeth, A daughter of Athena
Exactly. Sure, Percy is *oblivious* but he hides his intelligence and cleverness. Annabeth is a daughter of Athena and Percy's girlfriend, but that doesn't mean that we should overlook the fact that Percy is super smart. He just doesn't like to deliberately show it. Same with Leo. He doesn't like to show to show his pain and intelligence until it is required.
am i the only one who believes jason was beginning to truely (re)discover himself, and become more powerful before his untimely demise? there’s a few examples of this in the burning maze. the most obvious one is just the sheer number of lightning bolts he was able to summon on the fleet of ships when before it was draining for him to just do a singular one. i could be wrong but i think he had the most potential out of anyone on this list but it was stumped multiple times (most notably when he lost his memory and basically had to relearn his powers) for all we know jason could have been significantly stronger before he lost his memory (which was not properly restored like percy’s)
I do not agree with him having the most potential, just because, as many other comments already mentioned, Percy has the power of Earthquakes which he never used, can pretty much blood bend, and also heal and revitalise when only even touching water. So he can just dip his hand in water and won't be exhausted anymore wich is pretty much OP, and as we all know water is pretty much everywhere. And also comparing swordsmanship Percy is way above, I mean he dueled Ares when he was 12... thats pretty much unthinkable for literally anyone else on the list. ( btw already hyped for that part in the series coming up)
I think Jason is restricted by the way he grew up in Camp Jupiter. They are going for teamwork and strategic moves as a legion, while Camp Half-Blood Philosphy is "nobody is going to help you outside", u need to surive by yourself or at least have some teamwork in a small group. If Jason will free himself, he could get more powerful, but he could never overcome the expierence of Percy.
Jason doesn’t even have more potential than Frank much less Percy or Nico and his best feat is bringing down Krios with his bare hands, after attacking the mount Tampalis with the legion. While Percy’s feat of beating Ares in a battle to first blood is already better than that and he was 12
@@theonlyace1724 I agree camp half blood you learn to fend for yourself before you learn to work together and it makes them better at individual combat
If the series made a shred of sense, Jason would be the best demigod alive. Trained as a demigod since he was a baby, and son of the most powerful god. Both experience and genetics. But Rick made Percy so OP it's laughable, I don't know why he did that. He barely has a third of Jason's training, and has worse genetics. Same with Nico.
But well, I guess the series isn't made to make sense, just to be entertaining.
Once nico is healthier and older and more experienced then he’s going to be even more powerful. Only reason he’s not higher is that he’s one of the youngest demigods rn and he’s physically and mentally in bad shape.
Damn all these kids need therapy.
I would want Nico's power without a doubt.
I think Percy is the most skilled demigod. I don't really think his power had very much to do with defeating many of the monsters he faced as a twelve year old. But once he got the hang of them he could use his powers easier and they did have something to do with him defeating monsters. Because this list was talking about powers more so rather than skill or the ability to use said powers, I feel that Nico is the most powerful demigod although, yes, his physical state prevents him from using his powers as well as Percy does.
Feel free to comment your opinion.

V
I do agree tho I think his powers wouldnt be that optimal in daily life. So I guess I'd choose some other power. I think I'd choose Annabeths or Leos Abilities considering that u could actually earn money from them and they will be of use in many situations. ( not entirely sure anymore on how Hazels curse works, cause damn finding ressouces would be a cheatcode )
percy’s the most powerful
there’s water in almost everything and he can control that water
he’s skilled and can make hurricanes and storms at will
he’s also pretty smart
nico would be second
even he says percy is the most powerful
look
percy beat the god if war when he was 12
he can also create water when he used it to erupt that volcano.
Percy just being practical with his earplugs
*Silena, Will, and Octavian have left the chat*
I mean Will pre the sun and star has no feats besides being a healer. Octavian literally has no feats beside getting bullied and Silena again has no feats aside from dying neg and assumed stronger charmspeak than Drew.
Apart from being a phenomenal healer, Will doesn’t really have feats until The Sun and Star.
Silena is a great character, but was never really powerful, apart from her Charmspeak (and unlike Piper, we don’t really have a lot of development regarding her powers).
Octavian is dangerous because of his political meddling, but that’s about it. Only reason the bastard didn’t die sooner was because of his influence, cos Reyna would’ve murdered him after he stabbed Gwen had Mars not shown up. Like, he is not even a demigod, he is a legacy and a poor one at that. As a matter of fact, his only two abilities (political speaker and receiving prophecies) are easily topped by Reyna and Rachel respectively (the latter being the mortal Oracle of Delphi).
Silena and Will lack more time to develop their abilities. Octavian literally wouldn’t hold his own against a mortal.
I mostly agree, I didn't read all of the books but only based on statements made by some of the demigods it's clear that Percy is the strongest, Leo is among the five strongest, and Nico is among the top strongest as well. I always say that Nico when he gets to Percy's age in 'heroes of Olympus' he would be stronger than Percy was at the time, and his only handicap is the age gap
Omg nico and will has a book coming ahhhh I love you for telling me this their my fav characters
I actually can't 🤣 I am sure this is a really informative video but I couldn't stop laughing. The zoom in franks little arm and saying 'powerful' I had to pause and so a lap of my house to stop laughing🤣
You got everything so spot on its perfect I love the ranking❤ especially Leo
Personally, I would put Reyna way, way higher, since I think (and I might be wrong) that Annabeth thinks Reyna could beat her. And Reyna can beat Thalia with ease, who can beat Annabeth, so I think she should be in the top ten. (Totally not a bit of bias on my part, but Reyna's amazing.)
I haven’t watched this yet but this is my opinion; I feel like Annabeth is the most powerful cuz like yeah she doesn’t really have any powers but she does have PRIVILEGE over Percy- “stop killing this horrible goddess in a gruesome way” “aight” 😭
Lets be honest, if Percy had fallen into Tartauras alone (with changes to the situations he finds himself in so he survives reasonably), we would end up just getting a god in a mortal body.
I think we already pretty much do. Considering his powers alone he has pretty much EVERYTHING Poseidon / Neptune can do. And then he has a better combat IQ and Swordsmanship than mfucking Ares. The God of Fighting/ War, and also one of the best leadership prowess.
i hope if rick makes anymore books he goes into depth on the extent of percy’s water powers like if he can blood blend or make water boil/freeze and if he can increase the water pressure, since percy is a good person tho i doubt he’ll actually use blood bending in a fight unless he’s already in the angered state after controlling poison or just really pissed off for any other reason
he can blood bend to control ppl he did it in house of hades but it scared annabeth a lot so i think he promised to not do it
speaking of pissed off, i bet he could control pee
We need dis for jason
@@stateofgrace03 If something happened to Annabeth, or the people he loved, then goodbye world.
Reyna literally embarrassed thalia in a mock fight sure thalia didn't use lightining but reyna was binded, unarmed and surrounded in a room filled with hunters
ok but humans are 72 percent water so Percy could control us like that, and we also know that he can control other liquids (the poison in tartarus). He could literally just like squash us and control our every move.
Nico is actually the oldest living demigod having been trapped in the Lotus Hotel for a few centuries. But he does tire easily, and I think that’s because he’s had no one to properly train him.
he's been trapped in the Lotus Hotel for roughly 70 years but yes you have a point
In fact, Hazel is older
I love both Alex and Nico and I have to say... I exactly agree with were you pit them. Im a vit bias, but you make an extremely valid point about Nico 💚🖤
I love all these characters! I love their abilities and skills!
I am watching ur channel for 1st time and bro u r the ray of sunshine
Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying the vids
Percy Jackson cause yes Nico’s power with his potential is crazy. His powers could very well be the greatest gift ever, but healing from water is just way too good, especially since Percy also probably hasn’t unlocked or gotten all his powers to full capacity. I want to be able to be unbeatable in rain. I’m choosing Percy
I just started reading the Percy Jackson series (two books in one day) and this is the vid i needed to hype me up my God I'm excited
“ Percy would just wear earplugs “ that killed me of waaaaaaaaay too much laughter
Look, a millenia-old enchantment (Lotus Casino), which probably strengthens with time, couldn't even completely hold him back. He straight breaks through charmspeak.
people talk about Percy's water control ability, and forget that he can make an earthquake too
Totally agree with all the rankings. But I feel like Reyna, Annabeth, Hazel and Nico could be higher on the list.
But overall it was a great video!
I agree with all but Nico and Reyna, Reyna was already placed too high and Nicos placed pretty well honestly
Thank you for jumpin into the video!
I think Annabeth would be more powerful since her aura was strong....and the monsters found her when she was just 7
You mean her smell? Remember the smell gets stronger when you find out your a demigod and children of the big 3 are just naturally easier to sniff out by monsters so going by just that their all stronger than her.
Annabeth is underrated she is the brains of the 7. If she hadn’t defeated Arachne, the romans and Greeks would not unite and so on.. broo she literally held the sky, helped fight akhlys and nyx……. She is really underrated. AND THAT ISN’T FAIR.
Yes i think shes so underrated when it comes to power, im on the lost hero so correct me if im wrong but she had no powers so she had to rely on her self and books for everything, percy and a few others had all the power in the world , he relyed on his father to answer is prayers. If it came to fighting without any powers percy woukd be a little bit lower
I feel like Alex wasn't high enough on this list. Not only could he become any animal, but she was also immortal and had superhuman strength, speed and durability courtesy of Valhalla. His garotte was also enchanted and a weapon crafted by a god, meaning it is most likely unbreakable.
They’re placed pretty well honestly, they’re strong but can’t beat the demigods above them
Nico di Angelo has survived Tartarus twice and you call him weak.. One of those times was alone, and he was also the first to do it.
Percy wouldn't have survived once without Bob who only assisted Nico on the second time. Percy wouldn't have survived if it wasn't for Nico being kind to Bob. Percy needed Annabeth and would have died almost instantly if it wasn't for her.
Meanwhile Nico survived twice, on the go, also survived Nyx and had to SAVE the titan who had to save Percy.
Surely, Nico struggled a lot, and definitely left with more trauma and physical weakness. But can you blame him? He survived that alone, saw the true Tartarus beyond what others would see, and lived to tell the tale
I think we should have gotten more development with Percy from the books. A quick review of his powers:
Control of water, breathes and heals from it-maybe even invincible in it
Can cause earthquakes
Can summon a hurricane
Best swordsman
Flight via Pegasus
Shadow travel via helldog
Underrated intelligence (like leo he’s quickly thought of solutions to bad situations and multiple characters describe him as smarter than he lets on)
-he lacks long term strategy and big picture thinking but with Annabeth he has that too
Control of liquids
That last one is really interesting because he can control poisons. I’ve been really curious on whether he can control blood and “blood bend.” I think a darker mature book could feature him using badass but also downright evil powers to wring people out and pull blood and water from their bodies, basically being a blood god
I think his powers are the most well documented out of everyone.
That rap was so good haha it was like an argument of Marvel and DC fans. After some point they saying ''no feats'' so you just jumped to his feats from Percy's powers nice choice!
You forgot to mention he fought and won(I think, its been a while since i read the books) against Ares in a fight at age 12
Not really? I mean kinda?
It was more of a win cause of the rules of the duel/Kronos saved him.
Basically, Percy goads Ares into making it a sword fight making 95% of Ares’ power set nil. Percy and Ares fight, Ares is playing around and generally not taking it with even a sliver of seriousness. Then Percy sends a 6ft tall wave right into his face, and stabs his heel while he’s distracted. Then Ares goes to kill Percy, then Kronos stops Ares from killing him, Ares curses Percy, and then leaves.
So, I mean, you’re technically right that Percy won the duel?
But A) Most of Ares’ power set was considered off limit due to the rules of the duel
B) Percy is a scrawny 12 year old so nobody was taking him seriously (including himself)
C) Percy was immediately saved by someone else after getting first blood
So it’s really not viable as a power scaling situation.
Btw as the Eiadons metioned the top 3 strongest demigod in the 7 is Percy, Jason and Leo
