>>5183355It's hard to power level the berserkverse since most of the big players never imply that they're really putting in an effort on what they're doing, while the likes of Guts time and time again are able to defeat entities a hundred times stronger than him, even if it comes at the cost of his long term health. The same should apply for Vlad given the last part of his training was fighting a large gargoyle he used for rock climibng for years.
He never fought Merlina at her peak, but I'd say she's around Shierke - Sonia levels of magical knowledge and abilities (though she would probably lose to them since they know how to block Od flow and magic was the only thing keeping her from being a dead pile of bones.)
I'll let the feats speak for themselves for the most part. Think we've established well that Vlad's style works best when he's going fast and wearing the opponent down with Od corrosion until it does most of the work for him until he can come in with the final blows. He's just nowhere near as tanky as Guts so he can't take as many hits when he's fighting. And given how the guy's always beaten to an inch of his life in every major fight he's in, it's good to ponder for a bit if you want to go on that route.
