"These guys are just getting better and better." Varian remarked after cutting down the Low Level 5 Body Awakener.
{Rank 490. Low Level 5.}
The strength of phantoms had a fundamental shift.
It was expected from Level 5s, anyway.
Once again, Varian started from the last ranked participant on the floor.
{Rank 1000. Low Level 5}
The opponent was a controller. Naturally, his physicals stats were lower than Enhanced Awakeners at the same level.
But since he was a level above, all his physical stats were above Varian.
Stack that with the ability of Controller Awakeners—increasing any single physical stat by a significant amount.
If Varian only used his Enhanced Level 4 powers, he'd have been in trouble.
But there was always a better option.
Level 3 Body Morpher + Space Armor by Level 3 Space Path + Peak Level 4 Body Path.
This allowed him to easily leapfrog and slay the opponent.
