Forgetting that Ginny was invited into the very exclusive Slug Club specifically because Slughorn noticed she was powerful to the point where he just assumed that she would go onto big things. Hermione and Ginny were the only members to get in on ability everyone else was just well connected
I always thought Ron would be invited because in the book though Ron was lazy he was able to keep up with Harry and Hermione without even really trying cause he didn't believe he could
@@finnfriel4400 Harry wasn't necessarily invited because of skill it was because of fame and I suppose his potential power but it wasn't his abilities in magic at the time like it was with Ginny and Hermione
Don't also forget that Ron on his first year had a borrowed wand and in the second year he had a broken borrowed wand. So yeah his start in education was not ideal
Let's not forget that Ron's first wand bonds strongly to it's first owner and not so much to other owners. So the fact he can cast any spells with his first wand is amazing.
@@emelia1522 It wasn't borrowed, but Ron went to Hogwarts equipped with hand-me-downs. "I've got Bill's old robes, Charlie's old wand and Percy's old rat". The point being that until his broken wand was replaced, he was wasn't getting the best from his wand because it hadn't chosen him.
You seriously undervalued Ron. He is a battle hardened wizard who fought on all front line, and behind enemy lines. When he teamed up with Tonks to transport Harry, she admitted that he was truly brilliant in battle. When he separated from Harry and Hermoine and came back to them later, he had spare wands he had taken off of death eaters, while he was on the run, alone. Ron is top 3 Weasley in my book.
Anyone close to Harey Potter would have become an auror after the war. He really wasn’t as good of a wizard as everyone else around him. Same applies to Harry
That´s true! I completely forgot about that. But it´s hard to place him, as we don´t really ever see him perform magic. So he might be the most powerful, we just don´t know...
He didn't enchant the car. He worked in the Department of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts. It was already enchanted when he brought it home. It had been confiscated by the ministry.
Haha that too the only scene that i see that clock is the second movie you can actually say that she really is worried about her family because her bogart is the death of her family including harry
@@lisaminci5735 actually the clock is really weird, there are two type of clocks, in one it shows time to feed the chicken, time to prepare tea, and then there is that magical artifact showing family
Well if you see closely the clock says dentist but when hermione tells everyone that her parents are dentists they’ve heard it for the very first time. Small detail
Fun fact: Ron is one of the most magically talented people from the first half of the series. In fact, most of the spells he cast in the books were during this time period, and that's impressive because his first wand was a hand me down of a unique type of wood, that was only loyal to it's first and true user, and on top of that, it had a unicorn hair core, of which degrades itself in power when passed down to another. Ron had quite literally the worst possible wand to ever exist in the HP universe, and was still able to cast magic pretty normally
While I agree with your list, I would move Ginny up higher than Fred and George at least. The books mention many times that they were terrified of her, she was particularly skilled with many types of difficult magic, and she survived the Battle at the Ministry, Battle of the Astronomy Tower, the Battle of Hogwarts, and possession by Voldemort. She was also very athletic, going into professional Quidditch playing for the Holyhead Harpies. All of those are tremendous feats.
I agree if we are specifically talking fighting skills, which was Ginny's most notable area of expertise, but magical power is more than just straight on fighting. Fred and George were very powerful enchanters, creating artefacts that left even Hermione baffled and impressed.
But to be fair Fred and George were more well rounded wizards. They’ve invented their own spells, potions and artifacts. Ginny may be able to out duel or out hex them, but they have a deeper understanding of how spells and potions are created and when given time they can not only improve upon long standing things, but also create brand new ones. Ginny is more of like a textbook badass were as, in my opinion, fred and George are the inventors of a new form of warfare if they put their minds to it. (Like imagine if they put all their effort that they spent on pranks into magical weaponry) But all in all I think if the weasleys made themselves an army the world would be screwed. Ron as a commander (his chess skills applied in real life), Ginny as a front line fighter, Fred and George as trap and spell makers, Percy and Arthur as the political diplomats, Bill as the curser and curse breaker, Charlie as the animal wrangler (aka riding dragons into battle), and molly as the healer and home base protector. Honestly the world would be doomed. They bred an army and failed to utilize them to their full potential
@@LMSPetRescue I'm still not over Fred's loss. You say things like "imagine if they put all their effort that they spent on pranks into magical weaponry" and it brings it straight back - because they should have the opportunity, dammit!
@@LMSPetRescue I've been mad at JKR for a long time, for three things: 1. She didn't write the books when I was a kid. (She isn't much older than me so she really wouldn't have had a chance. Still.) 2. Fred's death. See above. 3. Being a TERF. So... I still love the HP world, but I'm not able to show my love anymore. :'(
And its hard to rank bill or charlie we know they can ho their own but we know much more about the twins and ginny both growing great powerful and rare magic
Ron is so underated. He had a second hand wand for the first 2 years of his education and in the 2nd year it was broken. He improved in 3rd year with a decent wand. He was battling death eaters at age 15, he was part of the trio that saved the day a million times.
But Weasleys being who they are, don't you think the exact same goes for the other kids in the wand department? possible exception for Bill, being the first child the financial strain might not have become as potent at the time yet, even then he might not have gotten a Ollivander wand
@vincent Kelly It will work less effectively, but it will still work. For example, after Harry's wand is broken, he borrows Hermione and uses it to break the ice before he tried to get the Sword.
I would honestly put Bill at the very top because it takes A LOT to be a Curse Breaker, but Molly being able to kill Bellatrix without a verbal spell is also very telling as well.
The point of molly killing bellatrix was to show that pure intention defeats big evil. Molly was fighting for her daughters life. that was what allowed her to kill bellatrix, not her power or dueling skill. She’s number one on the list bc that scene is such a crowd pleaser.
@@swish3432 I think it was more purposeful. Those expected to be able to defeat her could not. Nigel’s parents were in hospital, Sirius was killed, she was in Askaban for pity sakes. Molly mirrors Lily Potter putting herself between her child and danger. The Weasley parent’s fought for and defended their children fiercely. Yet even Ginny underage was there. They coddled her a little too much since she was a year too young but she even risked herself. They didn’t hide. Ginny even suffered that last year of Hogwarts Ron managed to escape. They remind me of the fighting sullivan’s that lost all 5 brothers in WW2 in the same ship that went down. All in.
@@kristinesharp6286 I always thought of it as this: Bellatrix was heavily underestimating Molly. She saw a little chubby older witch and thought she couldn't be any good. She underestimated her and was just toying with her. That was the reason Molly won. This part they do show well in the movies I think, because she was laughing and throwing spells at her quite casually at first. Same reason why Sirius lost against Bellatrix(not to say sirius is stronger than Bellatrix), he should have been able to hold Bellatrix of for a while. But he just heavily underestimated his 'niece'. Molly is a great wizzard, but her winning the battle against bellatrix makes people overrate her a lot i think. Also the question remains: what is 'power'? Most talented i think: Percy, Fred, George and Bill would be better Most powerfull I think: Ron, Ginny and Bill would be better Bill I think is def the best.
I think Ron looked incompetent only because he was using a hand me down wand whose allegiance never changed from his brother. That’s why he always had so many problems with spell casting.
He literally got a wood and core combination that was the worst possible one in terms of passing it down. Ash wood(I think it’s ash wood) with unicorn hair makes a wand with a nearly unbreakable connection to its first owner. Ron even before his wand broke had his power cut in half or more using it.
I think Percy being a third child just overachieved trying to be as good as his older brothers. Ron, being the youngest boy was just not applying himself until he met Harry.
That’s basically the root of their respective characters, they both have middle child syndrome. Percy’s is high functioning while Ron’s low functioning, Percy strives to be the best at what he does to stand out while Ron doesn’t really bother because he feels he can’t match up to his older brothers.
"Professor? You've forgotten to assign homework." The students groan in annoyance. "Gee, Percy.. thanks for reminding Proffesor Snape." Ron said from the corner of the classroom, earning him a book slap to the back of his head by Snape. "That's 5 points from Gryffindor. Thank you for the reminder, Weasley. "
I agree the fact that Ron had a handed down wand should be a factor. But in the 3rd book he gets a new wand after his father wins some money. So he did get a want that chose him. That is most likely why he was so much better in Later books.
@@Truth72500 He could have but he didn't plus Ron would have refused. He was always super embarrassed about accepting anything from Harry if it wasn't a holiday or something.
I think Ron should have been a bit further up (closer to 1) because in the first books/movies he was using a borrowed wand. Once that one(Charlie's old wand) was destroyed and he got his own wand,his magic improved til he was able to do the things he did in book 7. Also Ginny should have been further up as well.
I think Ron had two defining reasons he was so low. 1. His wand, i feel like that was obvious, it was a handy me down for 2 years. 2. His place in the family. He was the youngest of all his male siblings and they all did great things and were very skilled. I feel like this gave him alot of self doubt. This is further worsened by being in Harry and Hermiones shadow. I would even say that Hermiones caused him to reject trying hard out of spite of her know it all-ness sometimes. It made sense that after growing up and maturing he became more confident and came into his abilities. No longer letting his insecurity of his siblings/ and Harrys notoriety get him down. Accepting his feelings for Hermione I think also helped, allowing him to get rid of that insinct to push her away due to possible rejection/ jealousy. I think Ginny should have been higher up on this list. She is basically the inverse of Ron. She excelled despite being the youngest, probably because she could be set apart due to her being the only girl in her family. We dont see it alot, but just based on Rons immediate instincts in book two I think we can assume the brothers are more caring and protective of her than "playful bullying" like with Ron. She also wasnt in Harrys group so she didnt have these people overshadowing her, allowing her to grow in a more healthy setting than Ron IMO.
She doesn't use the deadly magic on her kids. She is like a lioness, gentle with the kids but absolute beast in face of threat. She didn't shy from a fight/argument with Sirius
Did Ron dirty 100%. He should 100% be in the top 3. Literally was apart of the golden trio that was the DIRECT reason the most powerful dark wizard of all time was taken down for good. Hunted/destroyed Horcruxes, dueled many death eaters and was actually fighting them at 15 years old (same with Ginny at 14, and think she shoulda been ranked higher too)
@@Dr.Ham_longsword Im not arguing that but still, she is known to be very powerful and arguably fought against the Death Eaters more than any of the Weasleys except for Ron. I think that alone puts her higher just because of the practical use of her powers. Same goes for Harry. He was above average in terms of power, but most consider him on the level of Hermione or even higher because of all of his real life experience dueling Voldemort
THANK YOU! The reason why the golden trio in Harry Potter is the best trio in books is because they are one complete unit. Harry is the best at practical magic, Hermione is the brains and Ron has the best strategic mind.
When has Ron actually done powerful magic or has had a meaningful- Intentional impact on the story save the Chess Game, Troll, and Destroying the Locket Horcrux. I am not counting the Flying Car, did not significantly change the story. Nor am I counting him Opening the CoS to destroy the Trophy Horcrux. Without Harry he wouldn't have been able to do that in the first place. Book 2- He had a connection to Ginny and thus providing motivation to go into the Chamber of Secrets. I feel like Harry would have gone down in there whether it was Ginny or not. Book 3-His whole thing in that book was he had rat that wasnt a rat Book 4-Jealous of Harry half the book. Helps Harry learn some spells with Hermione. Book 5-I fail to recall what impact he had during that book. Most I recall was him playing Quidditch as keeper rn. What did he do in the Ministry? Get attacked by brains? Book 6- Inadvertently caused Harry to get the potion book of Young Snape. Book 7- With gang- helps steal locket by acting as a husband, Locket corrupts him. Leaves. ------- Comes back and destroys locket. Gets captured by the stalkers, gets taken to Malfoys, gets broken out due to Dobby, helps breaking into Gringotts but that was mostly due to a traitor Goblin. Goes to the school, speaks parseltongue because Harry talks in his sleep? Has Hermione destroy the Trophy, what does he do for the rest of the battle. Edit: His biggest impact was probably in Book 1 with the Chess and Troll along with becoming Harry's Friend and all the things that come from it (which I am only going to count once). But besides that, I don't recall what else he did in book 1.
I think that the fact that all seven of molly’s children survived to adulthood is a testimony of her power. She had to have a great deal of strength and ingenuity to keep them from killing one another. Judging by some of Arthur’s reactions, I suspect she had to keep him in line as well.
We also see him perform non-verbal magic in the second book when he tries to curse Malfoy. The spell does work even though it back fired because of his wand. Even in the movies, he just says ‘eat slugs’ which is not the name of the spell. I think the prevalence of the movies have caused people to forget these little details from the book.
Did you know arthur was the one who used his knack for muggle artifacts for creating the radios the order of the Phoenix is using to communicate in the last book/movies? I really, really like Arthur, he's probably my favorite Weasley and always feels a bit under appreciated.
Ron battles hundreds if not thousands of death eaters by the time he was 18 and survived, he was definitely extremely skilled in Duel. He also destroyed horcruxes. I think he definitely should’ve been higher
@@pinkystinkeye5120 1. Thats not what you said. 2. That's not correct. Seventh sons of seventh sons were thought to have sight, or the ability to see through the tricks and illusions of the fair folk, and similar creatures(presumably the same applies to daughters). They aren't inherently more magical. Being seventh born is basically meaningless, aside from being the first half of the above situation
I adore Molly. Throughout the books she always shows how talented she is at everything. I was always impressed by how immensily good she is at charms The only time she failed was when she had to face a boggart and it had nothing to do with her magic skills but with her emotions. I agree with this whole list.
Exactly. Remember all the things that were just moving on their own in their house? And she did all that without even thinking about it. She is my favorite character ❤ And of course the duel at the end was one of the most satisfying scenes in the whole series ;-)
I put Molly on top, too! Every family member was talented, and she had to wrangle every one of those kids-and her husband-day in and day out. The fact that the house never burned down or blew up with all of those talented, rambunctious kids is proof of that!
It really depends on when you are setting the list. If you're saying "how powerful at the end of Deathly Hallows," then Percy is probably more powerful than Ron. If you're calibrating at some notional "full strength" power, Ginny arguably belongs at the top of the list, more powerful than Molly.
It's if it's now power or future power Ginny and Ron are both going to be more powerful than the others on this list as an auroa that has fought dark Wizards of over 17 years by the end of the epilogue he is climbing the list were as most of the other are going to fall in there DADA skills
I think it’s easy to assume Percy was less powerful but it is worth mentioning that it’s often suggested that his academic results were on par with Hermione’s. And you have to have high practical skills to get good grades on the OWLs and the NEWTS so he could deffo put his magical knowledge into practice and not just in theory.
The book are from Harry's POV so the readers missed so much how Percy are quietly the third OWLs record maker with 12 perfect Os while Hermione got 9 Os and an A for her 10 OWLs. Percy assist 4 different minister, from the incapable Fudge, Stick Scrimgeour, and puppet Thicknesse and finally reforming Kingsley. What people doesnt realize how Percy worked under death eaters reign, and stay save. And in the final battle he neatly jinxed some death eaters. If he involved more on Harry's adventures we might would only have 7 thin books to read because alot of golden trio's misshap wont happen if they ask Percy's help.
We hardly see any of Percy’s feats but he did do better than Bill when it came to helping put down the mob that started during the Quidditch World Cup. Percy got a bloody nose while Bill got a big ‘ol gash in his arm. Granted, we don’t know how things went down but I think it’s saying something that Percy got less damage than Bill during that scuffle, though Charlie beats the both of them in that situation since he only got his shirt ripped.
Not to mention that he managed to perform complex magic like human transfiguration against a former Head Auror (turning Pius Thicknesse into a sea urchin) in the middle of battle while joking around. It should also be remembered that while everyone else was summoned by Neville for the Battle of Hogwarts, Percy was summoned directly by Aberforth, who had disuaded Harry, Ron, and Hermione from returning not long after. The fact that Percy thought he might've been late suggests that he had already been delayed by then, suggesting that Aberforth may have notified him not long after Harry's return. I think Percy independently had a hand in an anticipated standoff at Hogwarts outside (but coordinated with) the Order's network.
Well what he's saying is that Gelrgw had more time to go on and do greater things, so Fred didn't die because he's weaker, but he's weaker because he died.
The reason why I would disagree with making Arthur higher on the list is that, in the scheme of things magically, his children pretty mich did that too. Charm regular objects - especially Fred and George. For an adult magician, that is pretty much expected.
Personally, I think Ginny and Ron should have been placed higher. The books describe Ginny as a powerful and brave person. She fought in the battle of Hogwarts even though she was not of age. Ron may have been described as clumsy and over shadowed by Harry, but let's not forget that he had a second-hand wand for the first 2 years of his education. Ron managed to accomplish many things: He destroyed a horcrux, fought in the battle of Hogwarts ect.
Ron is pretty similar to Harry, because he also isn’t book smart but can adapt to any situation and he is really courageous. He is also a better strategist than Harry and his wife, but lacks self esteem and confidence which hinders him in reaching his potential (Quidditch!) But when he is in his flow he can become an unstoppable force of nature
Please make a video on why Fred Weasley never came back as a ghost because I'm sure he had 'unfinished business' like running the joke shop. Thank You!
The reason he never came back was because to come back as a ghost someone must really not want to die, Fred however had a smile on his faces hen he got killed . He died protecting his family,friends, and the place he loved.
@@rejectful352 That would make sense, but nearly headless nick said a person can come back if they want to and hp theory said newt scamander might come back as a ghost as we saw him in the marauders' map and he said the reason for him coming back as a ghost was because he might have unfinished research and all. but anyway, I'll agree that YOUR POINT HAS VALIDITY and only a TRUE HP FAN could have come up with your answer :), but I still want hp theory to come up with this video. :)
@@jasonirwin4631 yeah and also grindelwald was defeated by dumbledore in the year 1945 which was also when the wars ended, that is why i suggested this
I always actually found it crazy that Ron was the only known person to ever be both prefect and team quidditch player at the same time although he kind of got lucky being picked at either of those things it's still kind of impressive that he achieved both and yes the Weasley family was actually very strong none of them were really weak at all and all of them have been successful in life there definitely one of the most powerful actually to be honest probably even the most powerful wizarding family and really the only what people call pure blood family to not hold any perfidiouses against anyone who's not pure blood there definitely legends in alot of senses
I really hate to be the grammar nazi, but this calls for it. Plus, I'm an English Major and your post is driving me insane with the errors. Firstly, please learn to use punctuation. Reading a sentence should be done in one breath (pausing for additional breaths at commas), and that is impossible to do with your post as one would pass out from lack of oxygen if they tried. Secondly, please learn that it is incorrect to say "always actually..." One could say: I always found it..., or I actually found it..., or perhaps even Actually, I always found it... Thirdly, while I don't remember Ron being both Quidditch player and Prefect (except while looking in the Mirror of Erised - which he was actually Head Boy in), I admit that it has been a while since I read the books so I may have simply forgotten it. Fourth, there are differences between the words there, their, and they're. There is used when referring to a location (i.e. it's over there). Their is used when referring to a possession of someone else (i.e. that bag is theirs). They're is a contraction of they are. An example of all these in one sentence is: That bag over there is theirs, but they're still shopping. Finally, I commend you on correctly spelling and using the word perfidious in a sentence, although I'm confused how you managed that with all the errors in your post.
Well sorry 😞jeez I must be really f in stupid then I know alot of people who can read this just fine even though the grammar and even spelling is horrible and let's all forget all the things I know about Harry Potter
And I wrote this comment 6 months ago and you comment so you can nit pick my mistakes of my grammar and spelling and whatever um OK fine sorry I'm the worst speller in the world
I mean he got the spot in the quiddich team thanks to hermione, and the spot as prefect cause dumbledore didn’t wanna put any more responsibilities on harry (otherwose he would’ve been the one elected)... he was also kinda garbage at being a prefect, hermione was the only one actually enforcing the rules..
Molly, Ginny, and then the guys. Let`s remember that in the Order of the Phoenix meeting, Molly was the boss. And how many different spells did she have running simultaneously all over the house, taking any of her attention at all.
@@starbittenpixieboy he was only really mentioned in the first and fourth book and in sixth book, his absent a lot it's like he wanted to remove himself away from his family but that doesn't mean he didn't live them
I would say say Ron is one of the the most underrated characters in the whole series, mainly because, as other fans say, his dumbness and rudeness were highlited in the movies to make Harry's and Hermione's qualities appear. He kinda ended up being a sidekick.
Percy should certainly not be last, he achieved 12 NEWTS (the average wizard gets 4), this is the most of anyone in the series, even more than Hermione. You could say that his brains and ambition aided this but that cannot be learning alone, he was very powerful and talented, its no surprise he gained a job in the Ministry as soon as he left Hogwarts. He also is one of the very few people who perform human transfiguration (on Pius Thicknesse during the BoH). I personally would say he is the second most powerful after Bill.
most of what he has is smarts, not raw power or experience. so while he is amazing at some, he lacks significantly in other areas in comparison to his family. also he may be very powerful n above the average magical, but theirs just other people that fill the spots above him that are better. lets not forget also that we never got to see extent of any of the weasleys smarts, power or experience, cause they weren't the main characters. and he was broadcast the least, so that's going against him also.
I would have placed him at the top. You can't tell me the nerd studying magic all the time is going to be bad at a magic fight. Otherwise Hermione and Snape wouldn't be so powerful.
I love having Molly at the top. She was a nice analogy for the kind, loving, sometimes overbearing parent and the monster they can become when their precious children are threatened.
Ginny is often referred to as a bright witch but rarely does something that proves she’s a powerful witch. She learns some spells quickly, but doesn’t prove that she can create spells or master anything particularly outstanding compared to the rest of the family. I always feel like she gets more assumed credit for having talent than deserved as we don’t have many specific examples. Same with Percy - he has a lot of accolades but doesn’t do anything with his talent that’s particularly impressive other than prove he’s a good student. Percy, Ginny, Ron, Charlie, Arthur, Molly, Fred/George, Bill
I personally prefer your ranking than the one in the video but I put Bill and Percy higher since they were both so good in school it had to come with great magical abilities in my opinion.
YES. I totally agree. I think Ginny was super talented.. Slughorn obviously noticed. And Fred and George’s pranks and their joke shop inventions even in school showed talent beyond their years.
Molly is definitely the most powerful in the family, but I can see the argument for bill. Great job as always. Keep putting out these great videos, I never miss a video.
Thats the whole point: Mollys powers were enchanhed due to the Power of Love (The most powerful form of magic according to Dumbledore). Which puts Bill as the most powerful, since he has the field experience being a curse breaker and actively fighting in the Order (Unlike Molly).
We made our lists based on where they were as ADULTS. It’s not really fair to rank 11 year old Ginny and 12 year old Ron up against their adult siblings. Here’s our lists: 1 Molly 2 Bill 3 Ron (he eventually grew into it) 4 Ginny (it’s mentioned many times that she was an outstanding witch) 5 George 6 Fred 7 Arthur 8 Percy 9 Charlie (wouldn’t rank him higher because he’s barely mentioned - not sure how he’s so high on your list) My BFF’s list: 1 Molly 2 Ginny (again - mentioned multiple times in the book for her skills as she grows up) 3 Ron (by the end of the series) 4 Arthur 5 Bill 6 George 7 Fred 8 Charlie 9 Percy
Very enjoyable. My only difference would be to move the twins up to below Bill in joint 3. Think of the fireworks. They discovered how to reactivate the marauders map. They were very much a force of nature in the wizard in world.
My list would be: Molly, Bill, Ginny, Charlie, George, Fred, Ron, Arthur, Percy. And I agree, it was really hard to make this list, they were all very powerful. Even the last one on the list, Percy, was a head boy and got good marks, which you can´t really get, if you don´t have some level of magical power....
We all need friends like the Weasleys. Now the question is how to be a friend like a Weasley. It's almost like Sam from LOTR. We all want a friend like that but we should try to be a friend like that. Also Mama Weasley literally using a killing curse on Bellatrix is absolutely badass!!!
Just to toss in a few additional random factors: Percy outduels the Minister of Magic one on one, so he should be higher. I don't think we have enough information on Charlie, so he is last just due to lack of data. Arthur was chosen to lead a platoon onto the grounds of Hogwarts by Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt so he must be a combat ace. The statement about Ginny being so powerful was made by George in front of Fred and Ron, which almost sounds like they are acknowledging she is stronger than they. And Ginny was complimented by Slughorn for her excellent skills, won many duels and was an equal to Hermione and Luna during the duel with Bellatrix. Gred and Forge are recognized as extrordinary magicians by Hermione when she visits the joke shop, so clearly they are great. And poor, underappreciated Ron, among everthing else he did, is only the third wizard to penetrate the chamber of secrets this century along with Ginny and Harry, and Ginny had help while Harry was a true Parselmouth. I downgrade Bill because he got beaten by Fenrir Grayback who isn't supposed to be all that hot at magic (easily beaten by Bellatrix) but of course Fenrir could have attacked when Bill's back was turned. I go 9. Charlie, 8. Bill, 7. Percy, 6 Arthur, 5. Ron, 4. Fred, 3. George, 2. Ginny, 1. Molly. Can't argue against Mother Molly, the bane of Bellatrix LeStrange!
Exactly my ranking. He ranked Charlie way too high which us unfair since we know barley anything about him, yet puts ginny so low when she has proven herself countless times.
I agree with your list, except I'd put Charlie ahead of the twins in 3rd. We know Charlie's job is to face one of the most dangerous creatures in the HP world, and we know that Fred and George didn't dare bully or tease Charlie because of his brawn. We can also infer from Ron using Charlie's wand in years one and two that Charlie either a) didn't need a wand to do a job [having travelled a lot maybe he learned how the African wizards cast spells without a wand] or b) he'd got another wand [maybe having outgrown his wand, or needing one with more power. Which is notable, because the only time we ever see anyone change their wand is when it breaks or they upgrade, or they fear twin cores causing unseen side effects].
Hold on, you don't put the character with no data last. You just don't include them in the list Putting them last is def not how it works. Putting them anywhere assumes you have a reason for why. No data means no say, no reasoning. No data. You can't place no data low because you don't have the data that says either that it belongs there nor that another belongs higher. You place things based on data. So with no data you don't place. Placing last is what you would do if you had the data that said last is where it belongs. Not placing is what you do with no data "Napoleon was weaker than an ant because Napoleon isn't here to arm wrestle this ant" ......well...... I think "no contest" is the jargon phrase for that, otherwise non-applicable or "I don't know" would have worked............. And..... No... No, I don't think that's how that works. I think we just stick to *not* making assertions about how much arm wrestling strength Napoleon had, since we don't know how much arm wrestling strength Napoleon had. Have the ant arm wrestle people who are showed up to the competition, then tell us who won that. Don't worry about Napoleon If you have no data on Charlie, don't rank Charlie. Rank the rest
@@slipknot95maggot Jeez buddy its not that serious lmfao. And there are reasons I never said there was literally nothing to go off of, just that the info isn't as much as other characters. We still know he was an accomplished Wizard just based off of his family history, and his job. But we have never seen him duel, preform magic, or have a full list of all his accomplishments. Hence why he goes at the bottom since all the other characters have proven themselves countless times yet we haven't seen Charlie do that. That's still enough info to include him, and being last doesn't mean the weakest in his case its just that we know he is an accomplished wizard but haven't fully seen everything he can do. I'm not about to not put him on the list he is still a Weasley lol

Just seems like that should factor in somewhere, at least given that we don't actually know the details and you're just assuming it somehow means something about how he was "too strong for his wand" or w/e. Dawg, who knows...? Maybe, sure. Also maybe not. Maybe since he had a job he had the money to get a new wand so he got a wand for his job and gave his brother a temp wand, rather than use what money he had to buy his young brother a brand spanking new wand leaving Charlie to go to his new job with the same crusty wand his broke parents bought him like seven years ago......? All love to the Weasley's and to broke people [as I grew up one and nearly still am], but let's not pretend like the hand-me-down family follows the same rules of wand switching as everybody else. Sure "the wand chooses the wizard" - if the wizard can afford the wand that chooses it. Maybe sometimes the broke wizard chooses the cheapest wand to not actively choose someone else. And then one day gets, like, *some* money and buys a better wand with it for work. Just because you give your little brother your wand doesn't mean you're too hot for your wand To be clear, I'm surprised to see Charlie so low. I'm not trying to take Charlie down a peg or whatever. But that reasoning is not "it", brah
Well i think Bill should be first and Molly second. Bill practically lives on edge and that for sure honing his skills and raw power. Molly could Manifest her inner power for survival and protection of family but Bill undrestand magic on deeper levels.
Don't forget that Ron casted Avada Kedavra on Nagini though it did not work on her because she was a horcrux.I also think that Ginny should be ranked higher.
Majority of my list would be the same, although i would switch Bill and Molly due to Molly gaining extra power due to the Power of Love (Which is stronger than any spell in the Harry Potter world).
1. Charlie for being able to restrain dragons 2. Fred/George for being able to create genius things at a young age 3. Percy for being able to rise up the ministry so quickly 4. Molly for the clock and killing bellatrix 5. Mr. weasely for being able to enchant the car 6. Ginny for being able to use magic so well at a young age 7. Bill or Ron. Bill is able to treasure hunt and work with goblins. Ron I feel like is much more powerful than he may seem. Let me explain. His wand in the first two books was his older brothers wand. As we all know, wands don’t work as well when someone other than the owner uses it. Then when Ron got his new wand in book 3, he still has the mindset of being bad at magic due to his mediocre skills before. Since he had that bad mind set, he performed worse. This can be backed up by several surges of confidence in Ron which leads to him producing great magic. Now I’m going to watch the video and see where this ends up.
I feel like they are all pretty similar. Ron in my opinion is one of the strongest though. With that said, if any of the other Weasleys above him had the same experience as him then they would be stronger. Just my opinion though
Assuming we're talking about ron and ginny as their most powerful versions (19 years later versions) 1: twins 2: molly 3: ron (auror) 4: percy 5: ginny 6: arthur (Put these 2 at the bottom bc we know very little about their magical skills and knowledge) 7: bill 8: charlie
Ooh I love this idea! 1) Molly, she destroyed Bellatrix, which clearly no one has done before and Bellatrix was known to be a highly skilled and deadly dual-er. Obviously raised a brilliant family too. Bloody love Molly the most too. 2) Fred&George, powerful skilled at business and their charm work to create their products. They were fantastic problem solvers which is undervalued in wizards and witches I think. 3) Bill, curse breaker, kinda have to be pretty powerful I should think, plus he survived being attacked by a v powerful werewolf. 4)Ginny, at least in the books, she was very talented and great at spells and jinxes. Probably having so many brothers, she would have observed them and felt a need to be as strong if not stronger than them. Slug horn saw her power and wanted to collect her, I don’t like him but he clearly had a knack for seeing powerful or talented witches and wizards. 5)Charlie, we don’t know a huge amount about him but a works with dragons so... that’s got to hold some powerful weight. 6) Arthur, brilliant and compassionate but not very powerful really. Order of the Phoenix member that gives him a kind of magical power or strength or moral fibre? 7) Ron, Rowling wanted to kill him off which shows that he wasn’t v powerful. He only survived because of his friends. I loved his jokey persona but he relied on everyone else to survive. 8) Percy, he seemed to have much more slytherin qualities than the rest with a strong self-preservation and need to succeed. He didn’t seem to care who he pushed under the bus, including the rest of his family. He only finally saw sense in the second wizarding war, the rest of his family saw sense far before him.
I think the first book gave the the full measure of Ron. He defeated McGonagall's chess set and showed that he was willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good. At the same time he saw himself clearly in the family lineup. He really was the least loved son. Why shouldn't he just mess around most of the time? No amount of achievement would ever be enough, so all that was left was to enjoy life and not suffer from too much disappointment from mommy and daddy. At the same time as mentioned before able to make mature decisions about life and death that most adults can't make. Maybe not power, but real strength of character. At age 11. With only Dumbledore, Harry and Hermione really showing any real appreciation of it at the time. Sorry for the essay but that has always bothered me about how casually most dismissed Ron.
Of course Molly was #1. She not only defeated Bellatrix Lestrange, but she single-handedly managed seven rowdy kids, six of them boys. That speaks volumes.
9. Ron(While Ron has a lot of more experience, he isn’t necessarily magically talented) 8. Percy(He had to have had SOME magical talent to be that good in school, but other than that nothing notable) 7. Arthur(Incredibly magically talented, but, so are all of them) 6. Charlie(Not in the series enough to accurately determine) 5. Ginny(Bat Bogey Hex... she’s very terrifying, her upbringing helped give her an edge) 4. Bill(Amazing, very amazing magically) 3&2. Fred&George(Once in a generation talent for... everything) 1. Molly(Had she not been a stay-at-home-mother, I genuinely believe she would have become a professional duelist. Or an auror, or something. She has unimaginable power when you hurt one of her baby cubs, and I quote, “NOT MY DAUGHTER YOUR BITCH!!!!”)
I definitely agree to place Molly as the strongest and she was who I thought of when I saw the title before watching. Never underestimate the power of a mother's love for her family. When danger comes near to a mother's children, a fierce and formidable force will be unleashed.
I was surprised to see Ron and Ginny so low on the list Ron became almost equal to Harry and Hermoine in power still lower than the two but comparable to them idk just my two cents
@@ohboi9578 In the movies? Possibly not. In the books? Ron was totally at their power level, but had a slightly different skillset. Where Harry had raw determination and leadership and Hermione had brainpower and perfect memory contributing to her vast array of spells at her disposal at any moment, Ron had the most combat prowess, insanely high perception and fast/reflexive action combined with connecting the dots and strategic thinking.
For God's sake, Ron should be in the top 3. Dueling so many death eaters, evading Voldemort and the entire ministry for an year definitely count as an experience and not to mention he became an auror, so he should be at least in the top 3.
@@ryanhaines7 That was in the movies. Ron never faced Nagini himself in the books, Neville killed her as soon as he broke free of the full body bind curse.
I think Ginny is the most powerful for her age. Her reducto spell is on a completely different level. It literally destroyed the whole entire prophesy library in the movie. So I think she is number 1 when she grows up.
Percy should be higher up. He was powerful enough to be scouted by the other side and strong enough to leave it. He was head boy. You are right they are all powerful.
I would rank Molly and Charlie lower. For Charlie, I feel like we do not have enough info. Yes, he was working with dragons, but I feel like that is not enough to be able do judge since we did not really see him in other situations. In the books he is just a sketch of a Weasley. For Molly, yes, she killed Bellatrix and was a great home-spells-master witch, but I feel like she was not as an accomplished comparing with the others on the list who had much more experience in the field. I agree with Bill and the twins and Ginny should probably be higher.
Just remember that Bill married Fleur, making her a Weasley. Same with Ron and Hermione. Not sure if that would effect this list but just remember that
Your list was spot on, its made clear throughout the entire series that Molly runs that family, and there isn't a single member willing to question that.
I seriously need an epilogue/ novella of the Weasleys mourning and coming to terms with Freds death. Obviously all the Weasleys, but especially George. I mean damn, who have fckn store with your deceased twins face large on the front building. Id love to see George come to terms, cope, and honor Freds passing. I think their story is so interesting, and the representation of "wild children" who are really just too smart for the school system is very relatable. I would love more stories of them, they deserve their own spotlight right next to the marauders. I mean...yeah their exit in book 5 was amazing. But in general its just a fantastic plot point that the twins really just came back to do testing on their joke shop and shit. A bigger emphases on their relationship with Harry would be awesome too. The marauder map given to harry by the twins, Harry giving his winnings to the twins. So underrated and just swept under the rug. Would love to see page time devoted to moments that focus on that. (i dont think the movies even explain where Fred and George got he money to start the business)
In terms of raw power, I believe it would have to go to Harry based on the feats we have seen from him. The strength of his shield charms and patronus are stronger than any other seen in the books. For intelligence and raw talent, we are given the impression that James is better based on the fact that he and Sirius are the top students in the school and are still slackers
@@jacobwhite7845 I don't think I would go with Harry in terms of power as well. Yeah, Harry's patronus was better than any other mentioned in the books, and he could make an incredibly powerful shield, but on the offensive side Harry doesn't seem to be doing something extremely powerful. He seemed to be using the usual spells(Expelliarmus, Stupefy, etc. which any witch or wizard can perform ) and not incredibly powerful ones. From what we've heard of James, and the fact that he and Sirius(who defeated Dolohov without much difficulty in the Department of Mysteries) had almost the same skill, seems to give him an edge over Harry.
What i wanna know is why was Percy in Gryffindor? He was so driven, ambitious and not particularly the nicest person. Sounds a lot like another house we know, right?
Probably because deep down he deeply cares about his siblings and wanted to be near them to look after them. Just look at his reaction when Ginny or Ron were in danger. He's got ambition but he drops that the instant his loved ones are threatened.
It takes a while, but Percy shows up to fight alongside his family in the end. He dives into the fighting beating quite a few high ranking death eaters at the battle of Hogwarts. Before he fights though, he apologizes to them admitting he was awful and that he was wrong with his line of thinking. Both the fighting and admitting he was wrong to his family take large amounts of courage and bravery. Marks of a true Gryffindor.
My ranking: most to least: Molly - clearly powerful, her brothers were part of the Order during the first war and she herself took on Bellatrix Fred & George - their abilities with experimental magic during their time at Hogwarts and their inventiveness put them at the top of the list Ginny - Bat Bogey Hex. Need I say more Bill - We don't get much chance to see him in action but as a curse breaker he'd have to be powerful Ron - Although he will always be behind Harry and Hermione, he does learn and if given the chance, I think he could innovate as well as the twins Arthur - Workmanlike, but good in a crisis. Percy - Hardworking, but lacking in personal power - a follower, not a leader Charlie - We see too little of Charlie to know his real power, but he is good on a broomstick (Quiddich) and good with magical animals.
What would YOUR list be?
I was working on this one all day- hope you enjoy it!
I can understand why
The weasley's are really hard to rank
Each of them were great

Love it!

How many subscribers will I get of this comment
Forgetting that Ginny was invited into the very exclusive Slug Club specifically because Slughorn noticed she was powerful to the point where he just assumed that she would go onto big things. Hermione and Ginny were the only members to get in on ability everyone else was just well connected
I always thought Ron would be invited because in the book though Ron was lazy he was able to keep up with Harry and Hermione without even really trying cause he didn't believe he could
@@finnfriel4400 Harry wasn't necessarily invited because of skill it was because of fame and I suppose his potential power but it wasn't his abilities in magic at the time like it was with Ginny and Hermione
@@finnfriel4400 With no Half blood prince book I don't think we would be getting to see him in slug club
Yes despite Harry is the best duelist among students of his time
@@ranjani925 actually Slughorn invited him before seeing his ability in potion with the half blood prince book.
Don't also forget that Ron on his first year had a borrowed wand and in the second year he had a broken borrowed wand. So yeah his start in education was not ideal
Let's not forget that Ron's first wand bonds strongly to it's first owner and not so much to other owners. So the fact he can cast any spells with his first wand is amazing.
Where in the book was it mentioned that Ron had borrowed wand at first year?
@@emelia1522 he had one of his brothers old wands, I’m pretty sure it was Charlie’s
@@emelia1522 on the train
@@emelia1522 It wasn't borrowed, but Ron went to Hogwarts equipped with hand-me-downs. "I've got Bill's old robes, Charlie's old wand and Percy's old rat". The point being that until his broken wand was replaced, he was wasn't getting the best from his wand because it hadn't chosen him.
You seriously undervalued Ron. He is a battle hardened wizard who fought on all front line, and behind enemy lines. When he teamed up with Tonks to transport Harry, she admitted that he was truly brilliant in battle. When he separated from Harry and Hermoine and came back to them later, he had spare wands he had taken off of death eaters, while he was on the run, alone. Ron is top 3 Weasley in my book.
I think he's stronger than Fred and George
People really forgot that he became an auror after the war with harry
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 12:20
Anyone close to Harey Potter would have become an auror after the war. He really wasn’t as good of a wizard as everyone else around him. Same applies to Harry
Can we just appreciate the fact that Fred & George were able to fully and successfully transfigured Ron’s bear into a spider at the age of 5?
I knew it was young but FIVE?!?!?!?
yES
Ron broke their toy broom so it was probably something like Harry releasing a snake at the zoo
Lol
McGonagal said in the first book’s first Transfiguration lesson that the subject is one of the most challenging subjects to master also
I would've placed Arthur higher. The man enchanted a car to the point where it was a near sentient being.
That´s true! I completely forgot about that. But it´s hard to place him, as we don´t really ever see him perform magic. So he might be the most powerful, we just don´t know...
He didn't enchant the car. He worked in the Department of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts. It was already enchanted when he brought it home. It had been confiscated by the ministry.
@@roravenclaw He definitely enchanted it. It's clearly stated in the books.
@@roravenclaw A simple Google search states otherwise.
He liked to experiment as did the twins
If you're putting Molly that high, I think you should mention Dumbledore's admiration for her clock that keeps track of her family.
Haha that too the only scene that i see that clock is the second movie you can actually say that she really is worried about her family because her bogart is the death of her family including harry
@@lisaminci5735 actually the clock is really weird, there are two type of clocks, in one it shows time to feed the chicken, time to prepare tea, and then there is that magical artifact showing family
Well if you see closely the clock says dentist but when hermione tells everyone that her parents are dentists they’ve heard it for the very first time. Small detail
I was very tired when I read this and I thought it said that the clock keeps trafficking her family
she defeated bellatrix in a duel
In books : Harry liked. Ginny for her nice personality
In Movies : She got *NoiCE* Skins
Yuh but like low key- high key so true
If you notice even Harry was bad portrait in the movies in many scenes
Yeh but that allowed Ron a chance to mention Hermione. We all know that Ron thought Hermione was ' brilliant but scary '
he only said it like that because he did not want ron to think he liked her.
@Ayeza Javed Harry: Oh FaNkS
Fun fact: Ron is one of the most magically talented people from the first half of the series. In fact, most of the spells he cast in the books were during this time period, and that's impressive because his first wand was a hand me down of a unique type of wood, that was only loyal to it's first and true user, and on top of that, it had a unicorn hair core, of which degrades itself in power when passed down to another. Ron had quite literally the worst possible wand to ever exist in the HP universe, and was still able to cast magic pretty normally
1. not a fact
2. overstatement
@@FA.9000 His wand situation mentioned here is a fact however wouldnt say he did normal lvl magic with it.
@@FA.9000 you’re definitely not the brightest of the bunch, are you
@@ClovisClover hes prob a troll or just ignorant
While I agree with your list, I would move Ginny up higher than Fred and George at least. The books mention many times that they were terrified of her, she was particularly skilled with many types of difficult magic, and she survived the Battle at the Ministry, Battle of the Astronomy Tower, the Battle of Hogwarts, and possession by Voldemort. She was also very athletic, going into professional Quidditch playing for the Holyhead Harpies. All of those are tremendous feats.
I agree if we are specifically talking fighting skills, which was Ginny's most notable area of expertise, but magical power is more than just straight on fighting. Fred and George were very powerful enchanters, creating artefacts that left even Hermione baffled and impressed.
But to be fair Fred and George were more well rounded wizards. They’ve invented their own spells, potions and artifacts. Ginny may be able to out duel or out hex them, but they have a deeper understanding of how spells and potions are created and when given time they can not only improve upon long standing things, but also create brand new ones. Ginny is more of like a textbook badass were as, in my opinion, fred and George are the inventors of a new form of warfare if they put their minds to it. (Like imagine if they put all their effort that they spent on pranks into magical weaponry)
But all in all I think if the weasleys made themselves an army the world would be screwed. Ron as a commander (his chess skills applied in real life), Ginny as a front line fighter, Fred and George as trap and spell makers, Percy and Arthur as the political diplomats, Bill as the curser and curse breaker, Charlie as the animal wrangler (aka riding dragons into battle), and molly as the healer and home base protector. Honestly the world would be doomed. They bred an army and failed to utilize them to their full potential
@@LMSPetRescue I'm still not over Fred's loss. You say things like "imagine if they put all their effort that they spent on pranks into magical weaponry" and it brings it straight back - because they should have the opportunity, dammit!
@@jenniferharris1280 DUDE SAME!!!! I’ve never forgiven JK Rowling for his death and I don’t think I ever will. He was one of my favorite characters 😢
@@LMSPetRescue I've been mad at JKR for a long time, for three things:
1. She didn't write the books when I was a kid. (She isn't much older than me so she really wouldn't have had a chance. Still.)
2. Fred's death. See above.
3. Being a TERF.
So... I still love the HP world, but I'm not able to show my love anymore. :'(
Honestly, I feel like most of the Weasleys are in a similar league and it's very difficult to make an accurate ranking.
It is very hard to rank them
It’s hard because you know the weakest is more powerful than your average joe
I agree
@And I like your name its and
And its hard to rank bill or charlie we know they can ho their own but we know much more about the twins and ginny both growing great powerful and rare magic
Ron is so underated. He had a second hand wand for the first 2 years of his education and in the 2nd year it was broken. He improved in 3rd year with a decent wand. He was battling death eaters at age 15, he was part of the trio that saved the day a million times.
But Weasleys being who they are, don't you think the exact same goes for the other kids in the wand department? possible exception for Bill, being the first child the financial strain might not have become as potent at the time yet, even then he might not have gotten a Ollivander wand
@@pink_alligator It's cannon that Ron was the only one with a second hand wand
Canon
@@pink_alligator his first wand is oak which according to cannon is loyal to its first owner and will not work for any other person
@vincent Kelly
It will work less effectively, but it will still work. For example, after Harry's wand is broken, he borrows Hermione and uses it to break the ice before he tried to get the Sword.
I would honestly put Bill at the very top because it takes A LOT to be a Curse Breaker, but Molly being able to kill Bellatrix without a verbal spell is also very telling as well.
Even aurers could not do it.
The point of molly killing bellatrix was to show that pure intention defeats big evil. Molly was fighting for her daughters life. that was what allowed her to kill bellatrix, not her power or dueling skill.
She’s number one on the list bc that scene is such a crowd pleaser.
@@swish3432 I think it was more purposeful. Those expected to be able to defeat her could not. Nigel’s parents were in hospital, Sirius was killed, she was in Askaban for pity sakes. Molly mirrors Lily Potter putting herself between her child and danger. The Weasley parent’s fought for and defended their children fiercely. Yet even Ginny underage was there. They coddled her a little too much since she was a year too young but she even risked herself. They didn’t hide. Ginny even suffered that last year of Hogwarts Ron managed to escape. They remind me of the fighting sullivan’s that lost all 5 brothers in WW2 in the same ship that went down. All in.
@@swish3432 It was too show the main thing the Harry Potter world always pushed: That the power of love makes one stronger.
@@kristinesharp6286 I always thought of it as this:
Bellatrix was heavily underestimating Molly. She saw a little chubby older witch and thought she couldn't be any good. She underestimated her and was just toying with her. That was the reason Molly won. This part they do show well in the movies I think, because she was laughing and throwing spells at her quite casually at first.
Same reason why Sirius lost against Bellatrix(not to say sirius is stronger than Bellatrix), he should have been able to hold Bellatrix of for a while. But he just heavily underestimated his 'niece'.
Molly is a great wizzard, but her winning the battle against bellatrix makes people overrate her a lot i think.
Also the question remains: what is 'power'?
Most talented i think: Percy, Fred, George and Bill would be better
Most powerfull I think: Ron, Ginny and Bill would be better
Bill I think is def the best.
I think Ron looked incompetent only because he was using a hand me down wand whose allegiance never changed from his brother. That’s why he always had so many problems with spell casting.
he had a new one from the third book, so I guess that's only true for the first two years.
He literally got a wood and core combination that was the worst possible one in terms of passing it down. Ash wood(I think it’s ash wood) with unicorn hair makes a wand with a nearly unbreakable connection to its first owner. Ron even before his wand broke had his power cut in half or more using it.
I think Percy being a third child just overachieved trying to be as good as his older brothers. Ron, being the youngest boy was just not applying himself until he met Harry.
Yeah, a similarity between us is feeling ignored among our many siblings. That's why I was particularly proud of his achievement of being a Prefect.
That’s basically the root of their respective characters, they both have middle child syndrome. Percy’s is high functioning while Ron’s low functioning, Percy strives to be the best at what he does to stand out while Ron doesn’t really bother because he feels he can’t match up to his older brothers.
Percy is the kind of student who would remind the teacher that they were given homework
Definitely Hermione too
@@missylang998 But for different reasons. Hermione just believed in working and studying hard; Percy would have done it to suck up to the teacher.
@@RH-ro3sg have you not read the books? He’s both of that 🤣 .....Hermione’s just a headache as much as Percy
LOL.... *Y E S*
"Professor? You've forgotten to assign homework." The students groan in annoyance. "Gee, Percy.. thanks for reminding Proffesor Snape." Ron said from the corner of the classroom, earning him a book slap to the back of his head by Snape. "That's 5 points from Gryffindor. Thank you for the reminder, Weasley. "
Ron had Charlie's wand for the first 2 years of school, surely that has an impact that you didn't factor in
I agree the fact that Ron had a handed down wand should be a factor. But in the 3rd book he gets a new wand after his father wins some money. So he did get a want that chose him. That is most likely why he was so much better in Later books.
@@lindabishop7824 wasn't the reason he got a new wand was because his old one snapped in the 2nd book?
@@venustrapsfliesNo, he had to use the broken wand for all of second year. The only reason he got a new wand was because of the money that Arthur won.
@@SomeFruityAssMF or harry could give him a few gold coins
@@Truth72500 He could have but he didn't plus Ron would have refused. He was always super embarrassed about accepting anything from Harry if it wasn't a holiday or something.
I think Ron should have been a bit further up (closer to 1) because in the first books/movies he was using a borrowed wand. Once that one(Charlie's old wand) was destroyed and he got his own wand,his magic improved til he was able to do the things he did in book 7. Also Ginny should have been further up as well.
but it mean that other would have deceased ^^. Who is hight level uped to you ?
Most of these lists, even when viewed objectivly will be opinionated. No way to avoid it
💯
1:59 Which is actually funny, because Sirius spent every holiday at James’ house every summer and was welcomed & adopted as a second son, like Harry
True. Underrated comment
Uhhh.. how is this comment?
Yeah He is technically a weasley. He is family because Ron, Fred, and George are his friends.
@@Queenhaylihill After Deathly Hollows, he becomes a Wesley in all but name by that point, having married into the family, and having kids.
I think Ron had two defining reasons he was so low.
1. His wand, i feel like that was obvious, it was a handy me down for 2 years.
2. His place in the family. He was the youngest of all his male siblings and they all did great things and were very skilled. I feel like this gave him alot of self doubt.
This is further worsened by being in Harry and Hermiones shadow. I would even say that Hermiones caused him to reject trying hard out of spite of her know it all-ness sometimes.
It made sense that after growing up and maturing he became more confident and came into his abilities. No longer letting his insecurity of his siblings/ and Harrys notoriety get him down. Accepting his feelings for Hermione I think also helped, allowing him to get rid of that insinct to push her away due to possible rejection/ jealousy.
I think Ginny should have been higher up on this list. She is basically the inverse of Ron. She excelled despite being the youngest, probably because she could be set apart due to her being the only girl in her family. We dont see it alot, but just based on Rons immediate instincts in book two I think we can assume the brothers are more caring and protective of her than "playful bullying" like with Ron.
She also wasnt in Harrys group so she didnt have these people overshadowing her, allowing her to grow in a more healthy setting than Ron IMO.
Molly proved herself with one good hit in a battle, Fred and George proved themselves daily with skilled and creative inventions
Where do you think they got their creativity and magic ability from?
Except Molly's good hit was against one of Voldemort's most powerful and trusted servants
Her magic clock was admired by Dumbledore. She charmed the whole house. She just wasn’t showy.
She doesn't use the deadly magic on her kids. She is like a lioness, gentle with the kids but absolute beast in face of threat. She didn't shy from a fight/argument with Sirius
We are given the details of Molly and her husband’s history. I wish we have been given a bit more.

Did Ron dirty 100%. He should 100% be in the top 3. Literally was apart of the golden trio that was the DIRECT reason the most powerful dark wizard of all time was taken down for good. Hunted/destroyed Horcruxes, dueled many death eaters and was actually fighting them at 15 years old (same with Ginny at 14, and think she shoulda been ranked higher too)
i agree on ron, but lets remember genny gets protected by the other members alot throughout the story
@@Dr.Ham_longsword Im not arguing that but still, she is known to be very powerful and arguably fought against the Death Eaters more than any of the Weasleys except for Ron. I think that alone puts her higher just because of the practical use of her powers. Same goes for Harry. He was above average in terms of power, but most consider him on the level of Hermione or even higher because of all of his real life experience dueling Voldemort
ugh ik that made me so upset
THANK YOU! The reason why the golden trio in Harry Potter is the best trio in books is because they are one complete unit. Harry is the best at practical magic, Hermione is the brains and Ron has the best strategic mind.
When has Ron actually done powerful magic or has had a meaningful- Intentional impact on the story save the Chess Game, Troll, and Destroying the Locket Horcrux. I am not counting the Flying Car, did not significantly change the story. Nor am I counting him Opening the CoS to destroy the Trophy Horcrux. Without Harry he wouldn't have been able to do that in the first place.
Book 2- He had a connection to Ginny and thus providing motivation to go into the Chamber of Secrets. I feel like Harry would have gone down in there whether it was Ginny or not.
Book 3-His whole thing in that book was he had rat that wasnt a rat
Book 4-Jealous of Harry half the book. Helps Harry learn some spells with Hermione.
Book 5-I fail to recall what impact he had during that book. Most I recall was him playing Quidditch as keeper rn. What did he do in the Ministry? Get attacked by brains?
Book 6- Inadvertently caused Harry to get the potion book of Young Snape.
Book 7- With gang- helps steal locket by acting as a husband, Locket corrupts him. Leaves. ------- Comes back and destroys locket. Gets captured by the stalkers, gets taken to Malfoys, gets broken out due to Dobby, helps breaking into Gringotts but that was mostly due to a traitor Goblin. Goes to the school, speaks parseltongue because Harry talks in his sleep? Has Hermione destroy the Trophy, what does he do for the rest of the battle.
Edit: His biggest impact was probably in Book 1 with the Chess and Troll along with becoming Harry's Friend and all the things that come from it (which I am only going to count once). But besides that, I don't recall what else he did in book 1.
Molly is a Prewett, another pure-blood family, and a very powerful one.
It never occured to me that Bill Weasley was the wizard equivalent of an EOD expert. That's actually pretty badass.
I think that the fact that all seven of molly’s children survived to adulthood is a testimony of her power. She had to have a great deal of strength and ingenuity to keep them from killing one another. Judging by some of Arthur’s reactions, I suspect she had to keep him in line as well.
I think Ron has to push himself to a higher position after everything he would have learnt from hermoine and harry
Ron: *destroys a Voldemort horcrux*
YEAH NUMBER 8 BABY
In the movies he destroys 2, both Slytherin's locket and Hufflepuff's cup
@@svenvanveenendaal762 no Hermione destroyed Hufflepuff's cup
@@loraaa_7928 you're right
and he became an Auror in adulthood.
We also see him perform non-verbal magic in the second book when he tries to curse Malfoy. The spell does work even though it back fired because of his wand. Even in the movies, he just says ‘eat slugs’ which is not the name of the spell. I think the prevalence of the movies have caused people to forget these little details from the book.
Did you know arthur was the one who used his knack for muggle artifacts for creating the radios the order of the Phoenix is using to communicate in the last book/movies? I really, really like Arthur, he's probably my favorite Weasley and always feels a bit under appreciated.
I never thought of that 🤯

@@Fonetiker it's in a deleted scene in the final movie.
That's why the weasley twin are so inventive through anything they want they got them from there father
Ron battles hundreds if not thousands of death eaters by the time he was 18 and survived, he was definitely extremely skilled in Duel. He also destroyed horcruxes. I think he definitely should’ve been higher
Hundreds and thousands? You're just pulling those numbers out of your ass
@@plitas did we read the same books?? They were scrapping with death eaters constantly, ESPECIALLY in the last book
As a twin myself, Fred's death cut too close for me. I can't even imagine what my life will be like without my sister.
Same. In my case my brother.
I would ranked Ginny over twins and charlie. She’s seventh daughter of the seventh daughter - her potential was showing. She warded off bellatrix.
Ginny isn't the seventh daughter, she the first daughter because she only had brothers
YEASSS and she did that being the youngest after that the became older and stronger
she was the first daughter of a first daughter.
@@owenjames8575 Ginny was the 7th child which is considered magical
@@pinkystinkeye5120 1. Thats not what you said. 2. That's not correct. Seventh sons of seventh sons were thought to have sight, or the ability to see through the tricks and illusions of the fair folk, and similar creatures(presumably the same applies to daughters). They aren't inherently more magical. Being seventh born is basically meaningless, aside from being the first half of the above situation
I adore Molly. Throughout the books she always shows how talented she is at everything. I was always impressed by how immensily good she is at charms
The only time she failed was when she had to face a boggart and it had nothing to do with her magic skills but with her emotions. I agree with this whole list.
Exactly. Remember all the things that were just moving on their own in their house? And she did all that without even thinking about it. She is my favorite character ❤ And of course the duel at the end was one of the most satisfying scenes in the whole series ;-)
I put Molly on top, too! Every family member was talented, and she had to wrangle every one of those kids-and her husband-day in and day out. The fact that the house never burned down or blew up with all of those talented, rambunctious kids is proof of that!
Even Dumbledore was heavily impressed by her magical clock. And not to mention she killed belatrix.
Most powerful black family member (like sirus belitex naruscw them families
I almost said Kingsley, took me a second lol
**Bellatrix**
@@britneyzzshadow1716 Oh that was the only misspelling, huh? /s in case
"Sirius Bellatrix and Narcissisa"
I think it should be Sirius. He only died because he stopped fighting and started to laugh.
It really depends on when you are setting the list. If you're saying "how powerful at the end of Deathly Hallows," then Percy is probably more powerful than Ron. If you're calibrating at some notional "full strength" power, Ginny arguably belongs at the top of the list, more powerful than Molly.
Not going to lie, I placed Ginny up higher just out of pure potential
I thought she would have been #2 in the family behind Molly.
It's if it's now power or future power Ginny and Ron are both going to be more powerful than the others on this list as an auroa that has fought dark Wizards of over 17 years by the end of the epilogue he is climbing the list were as most of the other are going to fall in there DADA skills
The quote is said by Ginny, and I think she adds at the beginning "Something I've learned from living with Fred and George"
yh
I think it’s easy to assume Percy was less powerful but it is worth mentioning that it’s often suggested that his academic results were on par with Hermione’s. And you have to have high practical skills to get good grades on the OWLs and the NEWTS so he could deffo put his magical knowledge into practice and not just in theory.
The book are from Harry's POV so the readers missed so much how Percy are quietly the third OWLs record maker with 12 perfect Os while Hermione got 9 Os and an A for her 10 OWLs.
Percy assist 4 different minister, from the incapable Fudge, Stick Scrimgeour, and puppet Thicknesse and finally reforming Kingsley.
What people doesnt realize how Percy worked under death eaters reign, and stay save.
And in the final battle he neatly jinxed some death eaters.
If he involved more on Harry's adventures we might would only have 7 thin books to read because alot of golden trio's misshap wont happen if they ask Percy's help.
@@orinkeren ,
They wouldn't be allowed to leave the commons if they talked to Percy, lol.
You need a lot of skills to work as minister's assistance
We hardly see any of Percy’s feats but he did do better than Bill when it came to helping put down the mob that started during the Quidditch World Cup. Percy got a bloody nose while Bill got a big ‘ol gash in his arm.
Granted, we don’t know how things went down but I think it’s saying something that Percy got less damage than Bill during that scuffle, though Charlie beats the both of them in that situation since he only got his shirt ripped.
Not to mention that he managed to perform complex magic like human transfiguration against a former Head Auror (turning Pius Thicknesse into a sea urchin) in the middle of battle while joking around. It should also be remembered that while everyone else was summoned by Neville for the Battle of Hogwarts, Percy was summoned directly by Aberforth, who had disuaded Harry, Ron, and Hermione from returning not long after. The fact that Percy thought he might've been late suggests that he had already been delayed by then, suggesting that Aberforth may have notified him not long after Harry's return. I think Percy independently had a hand in an anticipated standoff at Hogwarts outside (but coordinated with) the Order's network.
The reason fred died wasn't that he was weaker but that he was fighting one of the most powerful death eater and that he was out of luck
He wasn't fighting exactly face to face, the wall was blasted apart and he was killed in that explosion.
Well what he's saying is that Gelrgw had more time to go on and do greater things, so Fred didn't die because he's weaker, but he's weaker because he died.
@Allison Gargiulo WHY DID I FIND THIS FUNNY
No he wasn’t fighting a death eater he was killed by a blown up wall
😞 sadly valid point
Arthur should be higher, he made a flying car, he has a lot of knowledge and he seemed pretty good with spells
The reason why I would disagree with making Arthur higher on the list is that, in the scheme of things magically, his children pretty mich did that too. Charm regular objects - especially Fred and George. For an adult magician, that is pretty much expected.
not to mention he worker at the ministry
He also survived an attack from nagini
Personally, I think Ginny and Ron should have been placed higher. The books describe Ginny as a powerful and brave person. She fought in the battle of Hogwarts even though she was not of age. Ron may have been described as clumsy and over shadowed by Harry, but let's not forget that he had a second-hand wand for the first 2 years of his education. Ron managed to accomplish many things: He destroyed a horcrux, fought in the battle of Hogwarts ect.
Ron is pretty similar to Harry, because he also isn’t book smart but can adapt to any situation and he is really courageous. He is also a better strategist than Harry and his wife, but lacks self esteem and confidence which hinders him in reaching his potential (Quidditch!)
But when he is in his flow he can become an unstoppable force of nature
Please make a video on why Fred Weasley never came back as a ghost because I'm sure he had 'unfinished business' like running the joke shop. Thank You!
The reason he never came back was because to come back as a ghost someone must really not want to die, Fred however had a smile on his faces hen he got killed . He died protecting his family,friends, and the place he loved.
YES
@@rejectful352 That would make sense, but nearly headless nick said a person can come back if they want to and hp theory said newt scamander might come back as a ghost as we saw him in the marauders' map and he said the reason for him coming back as a ghost was because he might have unfinished research and all. but anyway, I'll agree that YOUR POINT HAS VALIDITY and only a TRUE HP FAN could have come up with your answer :), but I still want hp theory to come up with this video. :)

I agree with this Ranking. Even though that I would find it hard to rank them, I would also rank Molly to be at number 1

Same!
I always actually found it crazy that Ron was the only known person to ever be both prefect and team quidditch player at the same time although he kind of got lucky being picked at either of those things it's still kind of impressive that he achieved both and yes the Weasley family was actually very strong none of them were really weak at all and all of them have been successful in life there definitely one of the most powerful actually to be honest probably even the most powerful wizarding family and really the only what people call pure blood family to not hold any perfidiouses against anyone who's not pure blood there definitely legends in alot of senses
I really hate to be the grammar nazi, but this calls for it. Plus, I'm an English Major and your post is driving me insane with the errors.
Firstly, please learn to use punctuation. Reading a sentence should be done in one breath (pausing for additional breaths at commas), and that is impossible to do with your post as one would pass out from lack of oxygen if they tried. Secondly, please learn that it is incorrect to say "always actually..." One could say: I always found it..., or I actually found it..., or perhaps even Actually, I always found it...
Thirdly, while I don't remember Ron being both Quidditch player and Prefect (except while looking in the Mirror of Erised - which he was actually Head Boy in), I admit that it has been a while since I read the books so I may have simply forgotten it. Fourth, there are differences between the words there, their, and they're. There is used when referring to a location (i.e. it's over there). Their is used when referring to a possession of someone else (i.e. that bag is theirs). They're is a contraction of they are. An example of all these in one sentence is: That bag over there is theirs, but they're still shopping.
Finally, I commend you on correctly spelling and using the word perfidious in a sentence, although I'm confused how you managed that with all the errors in your post.
Well sorry 😞jeez I must be really f in stupid then I know alot of people who can read this just fine even though the grammar and even spelling is horrible and let's all forget all the things I know about Harry Potter
And I wrote this comment 6 months ago and you comment so you can nit pick my mistakes of my grammar and spelling and whatever um OK fine sorry I'm the worst speller in the world
Reading this just taught me about as much as 10 years of english studies in swedish pre/high school did 😂
I mean he got the spot in the quiddich team thanks to hermione, and the spot as prefect cause dumbledore didn’t wanna put any more responsibilities on harry (otherwose he would’ve been the one elected)... he was also kinda garbage at being a prefect, hermione was the only one actually enforcing the rules..
Molly, Ginny, and then the guys. Let`s remember that in the Order of the Phoenix meeting, Molly was the boss. And how many different spells did she have running simultaneously all over the house, taking any of her attention at all.
nope
Ron and Arthur are so fkin underrated
i always find it strange its not really brought up but half the ministry own him a favour or are friendly with him
You say that but Charlie wasn't even in the movies
@@starbittenpixieboy he was only really mentioned in the first and fourth book and in sixth book, his absent a lot it's like he wanted to remove himself away from his family but that doesn't mean he didn't live them
I would say say Ron is one of the the most underrated characters in the whole series, mainly because, as other fans say, his dumbness and rudeness were highlited in the movies to make Harry's and Hermione's qualities appear. He kinda ended up being a sidekick.
@@eduardocaetano690 also for Ginny tho
Percy should certainly not be last, he achieved 12 NEWTS (the average wizard gets 4), this is the most of anyone in the series, even more than Hermione. You could say that his brains and ambition aided this but that cannot be learning alone, he was very powerful and talented, its no surprise he gained a job in the Ministry as soon as he left Hogwarts. He also is one of the very few people who perform human transfiguration (on Pius Thicknesse during the BoH). I personally would say he is the second most powerful after Bill.
His NEWTs better than Bill.
Being smart and talented doesn't necessarily mean someone is powerful. Percy was an exceptional wizard but he was also easily manipulated.
most of what he has is smarts, not raw power or experience. so while he is amazing at some, he lacks significantly in other areas in comparison to his family. also he may be very powerful n above the average magical, but theirs just other people that fill the spots above him that are better.
lets not forget also that we never got to see extent of any of the weasleys smarts, power or experience, cause they weren't the main characters. and he was broadcast the least, so that's going against him also.
I would have placed him at the top. You can't tell me the nerd studying magic all the time is going to be bad at a magic fight. Otherwise Hermione and Snape wouldn't be so powerful.
Yeah He has the least field experience and is the pencil pusher type
Or quill pusher
The second I clicked to watch, I was like, "if Mama Weasley ain't #1, we riot"
Fortunately we don’t have to
Agreed
I love having Molly at the top. She was a nice analogy for the kind, loving, sometimes overbearing parent and the monster they can become when their precious children are threatened.
Ginny is often referred to as a bright witch but rarely does something that proves she’s a powerful witch. She learns some spells quickly, but doesn’t prove that she can create spells or master anything particularly outstanding compared to the rest of the family. I always feel like she gets more assumed credit for having talent than deserved as we don’t have many specific examples. Same with Percy - he has a lot of accolades but doesn’t do anything with his talent that’s particularly impressive other than prove he’s a good student.
Percy, Ginny, Ron, Charlie, Arthur, Molly, Fred/George, Bill
You always make amazing videos daily!

I personally prefer your ranking than the one in the video but I put Bill and Percy higher since they were both so good in school it had to come with great magical abilities in my opinion.
No
YES. I totally agree. I think Ginny was super talented.. Slughorn obviously noticed. And Fred and George’s pranks and their joke shop inventions even in school showed talent beyond their years.
@@korodyj so? That doesn't mean Ginny is the most powerful
Yes, I 100% agree with you...people tend to overlook Ginny which makes me extremely angry.
Molly is definitely the most powerful in the family, but I can see the argument for bill. Great job as always. Keep putting out these great videos, I never miss a video.
Bill is more powerful than Molly, cuz unlike her, he has the field experience.
Knew molly was ranked first...and i knew it was because of lestrange xD
never mess with a mother who already lost a son...
Belatrix was toying with her
Thats the whole point: Mollys powers were enchanhed due to the Power of Love (The most powerful form of magic according to Dumbledore). Which puts Bill as the most powerful, since he has the field experience being a curse breaker and actively fighting in the Order (Unlike Molly).
My list:
1. Charlie. My boy tames dragons. DRAGONS
2. Bill: Possibly switched with Charlie
3. Molly
After that I agree with the video
Thanks for being so interesting and teaching me more about the wizarding world other that the books and films

Yes, he was. In the video-game Hogwarts Mystery saw more their interaction between their an with our MC (or character that we can create).

We made our lists based on where they were as ADULTS. It’s not really fair to rank 11 year old Ginny and 12 year old Ron up against their adult siblings.
Here’s our lists:
1 Molly
2 Bill
3 Ron (he eventually grew into it)
4 Ginny (it’s mentioned many times that she was an outstanding witch)
5 George
6 Fred
7 Arthur
8 Percy
9 Charlie (wouldn’t rank him higher because he’s barely mentioned - not sure how he’s so high on your list)
My BFF’s list:
1 Molly
2 Ginny (again - mentioned multiple times in the book for her skills as she grows up)
3 Ron (by the end of the series)
4 Arthur
5 Bill
6 George
7 Fred
8 Charlie
9 Percy
Very enjoyable. My only difference would be to move the twins up to below Bill in joint 3. Think of the fireworks. They discovered how to reactivate the marauders map. They were very much a force of nature in the wizard in world.
My list would be: Molly, Bill, Ginny, Charlie, George, Fred, Ron, Arthur, Percy. And I agree, it was really hard to make this list, they were all very powerful. Even the last one on the list, Percy, was a head boy and got good marks, which you can´t really get, if you don´t have some level of magical power....
Just to clairify, Molly = weakest, Percy = Strongest? If so, that's more or less what I'd choose as a list.
I’d put Bill, Molly, Fred, George, Charlie, Ginny, Arthur, Ron, Percy personally.
Not bad. I would say Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred/George, Ginny, Arthur, Molly, Ron.

We all need friends like the Weasleys. Now the question is how to be a friend like a Weasley. It's almost like Sam from LOTR. We all want a friend like that but we should try to be a friend like that. Also Mama Weasley literally using a killing curse on Bellatrix is absolutely badass!!!
Just to toss in a few additional random factors: Percy outduels the Minister of Magic one on one, so he should be higher. I don't think we have enough information on Charlie, so he is last just due to lack of data. Arthur was chosen to lead a platoon onto the grounds of Hogwarts by Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt so he must be a combat ace. The statement about Ginny being so powerful was made by George in front of Fred and Ron, which almost sounds like they are acknowledging she is stronger than they. And Ginny was complimented by Slughorn for her excellent skills, won many duels and was an equal to Hermione and Luna during the duel with Bellatrix. Gred and Forge are recognized as extrordinary magicians by Hermione when she visits the joke shop, so clearly they are great. And poor, underappreciated Ron, among everthing else he did, is only the third wizard to penetrate the chamber of secrets this century along with Ginny and Harry, and Ginny had help while Harry was a true Parselmouth. I downgrade Bill because he got beaten by Fenrir Grayback who isn't supposed to be all that hot at magic (easily beaten by Bellatrix) but of course Fenrir could have attacked when Bill's back was turned. I go 9. Charlie, 8. Bill, 7. Percy, 6 Arthur, 5. Ron, 4. Fred, 3. George, 2. Ginny, 1. Molly. Can't argue against Mother Molly, the bane of Bellatrix LeStrange!
Exactly my ranking. He ranked Charlie way too high which us unfair since we know barley anything about him, yet puts ginny so low when she has proven herself countless times.
I agree with your list, except I'd put Charlie ahead of the twins in 3rd. We know Charlie's job is to face one of the most dangerous creatures in the HP world, and we know that Fred and George didn't dare bully or tease Charlie because of his brawn. We can also infer from Ron using Charlie's wand in years one and two that Charlie either a) didn't need a wand to do a job [having travelled a lot maybe he learned how the African wizards cast spells without a wand] or b) he'd got another wand [maybe having outgrown his wand, or needing one with more power. Which is notable, because the only time we ever see anyone change their wand is when it breaks or they upgrade, or they fear twin cores causing unseen side effects].
Hold on, you don't put the character with no data last. You just don't include them in the list
Putting them last is def not how it works. Putting them anywhere assumes you have a reason for why. No data means no say, no reasoning. No data. You can't place no data low because you don't have the data that says either that it belongs there nor that another belongs higher. You place things based on data. So with no data you don't place. Placing last is what you would do if you had the data that said last is where it belongs. Not placing is what you do with no data
"Napoleon was weaker than an ant because Napoleon isn't here to arm wrestle this ant"
......well...... I think "no contest" is the jargon phrase for that, otherwise non-applicable or "I don't know" would have worked............. And..... No... No, I don't think that's how that works. I think we just stick to *not* making assertions about how much arm wrestling strength Napoleon had, since we don't know how much arm wrestling strength Napoleon had. Have the ant arm wrestle people who are showed up to the competition, then tell us who won that. Don't worry about Napoleon
If you have no data on Charlie, don't rank Charlie. Rank the rest
@@slipknot95maggot Jeez buddy its not that serious lmfao. And there are reasons I never said there was literally nothing to go off of, just that the info isn't as much as other characters. We still know he was an accomplished Wizard just based off of his family history, and his job. But we have never seen him duel, preform magic, or have a full list of all his accomplishments. Hence why he goes at the bottom since all the other characters have proven themselves countless times yet we haven't seen Charlie do that. That's still enough info to include him, and being last doesn't mean the weakest in his case its just that we know he is an accomplished wizard but haven't fully seen everything he can do. I'm not about to not put him on the list he is still a Weasley lol
@@hughtube5154 "Because of his brawn" - so, not his magical power, then...? The thing we were here to talk about...? And not which of the Weasley's was the most swole........?
Regarding "the only time we see wizards getting new wands" - .... are you sure that applies to average witches and wizards as much as to a broke family that *needs* to pass things along between the children as they age...........? Just seems like that should factor in somewhere, at least given that we don't actually know the details and you're just assuming it somehow means something about how he was "too strong for his wand" or w/e. Dawg, who knows...? Maybe, sure. Also maybe not. Maybe since he had a job he had the money to get a new wand so he got a wand for his job and gave his brother a temp wand, rather than use what money he had to buy his young brother a brand spanking new wand leaving Charlie to go to his new job with the same crusty wand his broke parents bought him like seven years ago......? All love to the Weasley's and to broke people [as I grew up one and nearly still am], but let's not pretend like the hand-me-down family follows the same rules of wand switching as everybody else. Sure "the wand chooses the wizard" - if the wizard can afford the wand that chooses it. Maybe sometimes the broke wizard chooses the cheapest wand to not actively choose someone else. And then one day gets, like, *some* money and buys a better wand with it for work. Just because you give your little brother your wand doesn't mean you're too hot for your wand
To be clear, I'm surprised to see Charlie so low. I'm not trying to take Charlie down a peg or whatever. But that reasoning is not "it", brah
Keep up the great work!
You should do the most powerful sacred 28 members
Well i think Bill should be first and Molly second. Bill practically lives on edge and that for sure honing his skills and raw power. Molly could Manifest her inner power for survival and protection of family but Bill undrestand magic on deeper levels.
Don't forget Molly created the enchanted clock that impressed Dumbledore.
Ron is street smart. Hermione is book smart.
Don't forget that Ron casted Avada Kedavra on Nagini though it did not work on her because she was a horcrux.I also think that Ginny should be ranked higher.
If Avada Kedavra doesn’t work on horcruxes, how could it have been used against Harry?

As a mother, you don't need to have magical powers, you are dangerous anyway if it's about safety of your kids/family !
Majority of my list would be the same, although i would switch Bill and Molly due to Molly gaining extra power due to the Power of Love (Which is stronger than any spell in the Harry Potter world).
1. Charlie for being able to restrain dragons
2. Fred/George for being able to create genius things at a young age
3. Percy for being able to rise up the ministry so quickly
4. Molly for the clock and killing bellatrix
5. Mr. weasely for being able to enchant the car
6. Ginny for being able to use magic so well at a young age
7. Bill or Ron. Bill is able to treasure hunt and work with goblins. Ron I feel like is much more powerful than he may seem. Let me explain. His wand in the first two books was his older brothers wand. As we all know, wands don’t work as well when someone other than the owner uses it. Then when Ron got his new wand in book 3, he still has the mindset of being bad at magic due to his mediocre skills before. Since he had that bad mind set, he performed worse. This can be backed up by several surges of confidence in Ron which leads to him producing great magic.
Now I’m going to watch the video and see where this ends up.
I feel like they are all pretty similar. Ron in my opinion is one of the strongest though. With that said, if any of the other Weasleys above him had the same experience as him then they would be stronger. Just my opinion though
Assuming we're talking about ron and ginny as their most powerful versions (19 years later versions)
1: twins
2: molly
3: ron (auror)
4: percy
5: ginny
6: arthur
(Put these 2 at the bottom bc we know very little about their magical skills and knowledge)
7: bill
8: charlie
Ooh I love this idea!
1) Molly, she destroyed Bellatrix, which clearly no one has done before and Bellatrix was known to be a highly skilled and deadly dual-er. Obviously raised a brilliant family too. Bloody love Molly the most too.
2) Fred&George, powerful skilled at business and their charm work to create their products. They were fantastic problem solvers which is undervalued in wizards and witches I think.
3) Bill, curse breaker, kinda have to be pretty powerful I should think, plus he survived being attacked by a v powerful werewolf.
4)Ginny, at least in the books, she was very talented and great at spells and jinxes. Probably having so many brothers, she would have observed them and felt a need to be as strong if not stronger than them. Slug horn saw her power and wanted to collect her, I don’t like him but he clearly had a knack for seeing powerful or talented witches and wizards.
5)Charlie, we don’t know a huge amount about him but a works with dragons so... that’s got to hold some powerful weight.
6) Arthur, brilliant and compassionate but not very powerful really. Order of the Phoenix member that gives him a kind of magical power or strength or moral fibre?
7) Ron, Rowling wanted to kill him off which shows that he wasn’t v powerful. He only survived because of his friends. I loved his jokey persona but he relied on everyone else to survive.
8) Percy, he seemed to have much more slytherin qualities than the rest with a strong self-preservation and need to succeed. He didn’t seem to care who he pushed under the bus, including the rest of his family. He only finally saw sense in the second wizarding war, the rest of his family saw sense far before him.
I think the first book gave the the full measure of Ron. He defeated McGonagall's chess set and showed that he was willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good. At the same time he saw himself clearly in the family lineup. He really was the least loved son. Why shouldn't he just mess around most of the time? No amount of achievement would ever be enough, so all that was left was to enjoy life and not suffer from too much disappointment from mommy and daddy. At the same time as mentioned before able to make mature decisions about life and death that most adults can't make. Maybe not power, but real strength of character. At age 11. With only Dumbledore, Harry and Hermione really showing any real appreciation of it at the time. Sorry for the essay but that has always bothered me about how casually most dismissed Ron.
@@jamesdavidson6976 Also Ron was an auror later which show that the was powerful.
percy,ron,arthur,ginny,the twins,bill,charlie,molly
Of course Molly was #1. She not only defeated Bellatrix Lestrange, but she single-handedly managed seven rowdy kids, six of them boys. That speaks volumes.
9. Ron(While Ron has a lot of more experience, he isn’t necessarily magically talented)
8. Percy(He had to have had SOME magical talent to be that good in school, but other than that nothing notable)
7. Arthur(Incredibly magically talented, but, so are all of them)
6. Charlie(Not in the series enough to accurately determine)
5. Ginny(Bat Bogey Hex... she’s very terrifying, her upbringing helped give her an edge)
4. Bill(Amazing, very amazing magically)
3&2. Fred&George(Once in a generation talent for... everything)
1. Molly(Had she not been a stay-at-home-mother, I genuinely believe she would have become a professional duelist. Or an auror, or something. She has unimaginable power when you hurt one of her baby cubs, and I quote, “NOT MY DAUGHTER YOUR BITCH!!!!”)
Percy finished school with top Marks in every single class. Which Hermione didnt do. Got to assume percy would at least be close to her level.
1:11 Well, it actually: Ronald(Ron for short), Charlie, Ginerva(Ginny for short), Percy, Fred and George, Molly, Arthur, and William(Bill for short)
Don’t forget Charles (Charlie) and Fredrick (Fred) and maybe even Percival(Percy)
@Saanvi Bagla very true
@Saanvi Bagla is it not Ginevra?
For me Ron would be at the top, because he did everything with Harry
I definitely agree to place Molly as the strongest and she was who I thought of when I saw the title before watching. Never underestimate the power of a mother's love for her family. When danger comes near to a mother's children, a fierce and formidable force will be unleashed.
I was surprised to see Ron and Ginny so low on the list Ron became almost equal to Harry and Hermoine in power still lower than the two but comparable to them idk just my two cents
Ron was never at their level
@@ohboi9578 In the movies? Possibly not.
In the books? Ron was totally at their power level, but had a slightly different skillset. Where Harry had raw determination and leadership and Hermione had brainpower and perfect memory contributing to her vast array of spells at her disposal at any moment, Ron had the most combat prowess, insanely high perception and fast/reflexive action combined with connecting the dots and strategic thinking.
@@Alche_mist Most combat prowess? More than Hermione I'll give you that but not more than Harry for sure.
@@okanidug6035 I think Harry was better but they were in the same league. It's worthy of a conversation at least
For God's sake, Ron should be in the top 3. Dueling so many death eaters, evading Voldemort and the entire ministry for an year definitely count as an experience and not to mention he became an auror, so he should be at least in the top 3.
Ya Ikr. He is so underrated.
Also he casted the killing curse on Nagini.
exactly.
@@ryanhaines7 That was in the movies. Ron never faced Nagini himself in the books, Neville killed her as soon as he broke free of the full body bind curse.
@@thelegend1801 fair it was in the movies but that is a lot of magical talent you have got to believe me there.
I think Ginny is the most powerful for her age. Her reducto spell is on a completely different level. It literally destroyed the whole entire prophesy library in the movie. So I think she is number 1 when she grows up.
Me before watching
"Percy better be at the bottom."
Me a few minutes in
"Good lad."
Percy should be higher up. He was powerful enough to be scouted by the other side and strong enough to leave it. He was head boy. You are right they are all powerful.
I would rank Molly and Charlie lower. For Charlie, I feel like we do not have enough info. Yes, he was working with dragons, but I feel like that is not enough to be able do judge since we did not really see him in other situations. In the books he is just a sketch of a Weasley. For Molly, yes, she killed Bellatrix and was a great home-spells-master witch, but I feel like she was not as an accomplished comparing with the others on the list who had much more experience in the field.
I agree with Bill and the twins and Ginny should probably be higher.
Before the video: Molly, Arthur, Bill, Fred/George, Ginny, Ron, Percy Charlie
I think you should do another Weasley video but with Harry and Hermione because they are in the W family.
Just remember that Bill married Fleur, making her a Weasley. Same with Ron and Hermione. Not sure if that would effect this list but just remember that
Your list was spot on, its made clear throughout the entire series that Molly runs that family, and there isn't a single member willing to question that.
I seriously need an epilogue/ novella of the Weasleys mourning and coming to terms with Freds death. Obviously all the Weasleys, but especially George. I mean damn, who have fckn store with your deceased twins face large on the front building.
Id love to see George come to terms, cope, and honor Freds passing.
I think their story is so interesting, and the representation of "wild children" who are really just too smart for the school system is very relatable. I would love more stories of them, they deserve their own spotlight right next to the marauders. I mean...yeah their exit in book 5 was amazing. But in general its just a fantastic plot point that the twins really just came back to do testing on their joke shop and shit.
A bigger emphases on their relationship with Harry would be awesome too. The marauder map given to harry by the twins, Harry giving his winnings to the twins. So underrated and just swept under the rug. Would love to see page time devoted to moments that focus on that.
(i dont think the movies even explain where Fred and George got he money to start the business)
Video Idea: Harry Potter vs James Potter, who's more powerful
I think that'd be a great video
Definitely James
Harry
In terms of raw power, I believe it would have to go to Harry based on the feats we have seen from him. The strength of his shield charms and patronus are stronger than any other seen in the books.
For intelligence and raw talent, we are given the impression that James is better based on the fact that he and Sirius are the top students in the school and are still slackers
@@jacobwhite7845 I don't think I would go with Harry in terms of power as well. Yeah, Harry's patronus was better than any other mentioned in the books, and he could make an incredibly powerful shield, but on the offensive side Harry doesn't seem to be doing something extremely powerful. He seemed to be using the usual spells(Expelliarmus, Stupefy, etc. which any witch or wizard can perform ) and not incredibly powerful ones.
From what we've heard of James, and the fact that he and Sirius(who defeated Dolohov without much difficulty in the Department of Mysteries) had almost the same skill, seems to give him an edge over Harry.
@@thelegend1801 Harry is the best duelist among students of his time and became a auror
What i wanna know is why was Percy in Gryffindor? He was so driven, ambitious and not particularly the nicest person. Sounds a lot like another house we know, right?
Sounds a bit like Ravenclaw or slytherin to me
@@LILY-su6yz Rumor has it that the Weasleys are godricks ancesters so that might be why
@@WWE4life25 rumor also run that Dumbeldore"s family is ^^
Probably because deep down he deeply cares about his siblings and wanted to be near them to look after them. Just look at his reaction when Ginny or Ron were in danger. He's got ambition but he drops that the instant his loved ones are threatened.
It takes a while, but Percy shows up to fight alongside his family in the end. He dives into the fighting beating quite a few high ranking death eaters at the battle of Hogwarts. Before he fights though, he apologizes to them admitting he was awful and that he was wrong with his line of thinking. Both the fighting and admitting he was wrong to his family take large amounts of courage and bravery. Marks of a true Gryffindor.
My ranking: most to least:
Molly - clearly powerful, her brothers were part of the Order during the first war and she herself took on Bellatrix
Fred & George - their abilities with experimental magic during their time at Hogwarts and their inventiveness put them at the top of the list
Ginny - Bat Bogey Hex. Need I say more
Bill - We don't get much chance to see him in action but as a curse breaker he'd have to be powerful
Ron - Although he will always be behind Harry and Hermione, he does learn and if given the chance, I think he could innovate as well as the twins
Arthur - Workmanlike, but good in a crisis.
Percy - Hardworking, but lacking in personal power - a follower, not a leader
Charlie - We see too little of Charlie to know his real power, but he is good on a broomstick (Quiddich) and good with magical animals.
Subbed Amazing videos brother keep it up !!!
