## Power statistics

**DC: City Block:** Kirito was able to harm and defeat An Incarnation of the Radius which created a massive explosion with it's lasers. With the weapon gained from the true Final Boss, he was able to defeat all other bosses with one hit each (Asuna should be around that level at that point). **Large Building**: Kirito at the time was roughly around Heathcliff's level which he was considered the strongest player, who the later was able to one shot Kirito with a single sword swing. (which required the later to take all of the aggro and use his Immortal Object status unbeknownst to everyone to let the others finish off the boss while it's distracted) **Small Building**: The strength of stronger Knights when clearing the bosses of Level 5, which includes a 4 meter bull who crossed a distance of 4 hundred feet in 2 seconds. **Street-Wall**: The standard strength of regular knights. **Athletic**: the regular strength of their real bodies.

**Dura: City Block:** Kirito and Asuna around the end of SAO game where they managed to take attacks from the Incarnation of the Radius. **Large Building**: Kirito and Asuna at the time are comparable at least to Heathcliff and possibly other skilled knights. **Street-Wall**: the standard durability or regular knights. **Athletic**: the regular dura of their real bodies.

**Speed: Supersonic+:** Combat and reaction speeds of Kirito, Asuna and Heathcliff as they would be considered the strongest in the Guild, with their sword skills able to break the sound barrier and create sonic booms (The former two would be higher by the end of the game) **Subsonic**: Heathcliff in travel speed (Kirito and Asuna should be comparable to that). **Superhuman**: The standard speed of regular knights. **Athletic Human**: the speed of their real bodies.

## Strengths/Pros

Their greatest strength comes from their main members such as Kirito, Asuna and Heathcliff who carries many of their teams in missions and raids.

Since the formation of the guild their organization and strategies have won them many victories in the game where Heathcliff did not really need to participate and let his Sub-Commanders take charge of them, Even during the guild's first public appearance at the 26th Floor first strategy meeting, Heathcliff had Asuna stand at the front of the guild, saying that she would have a greater effect on the clearers.

## Weaknesses/Cons

They are still humans in real life, and while they are inside the game, their bodies are left vulnerable to harm. If they die inside the game, they die for real.
