      Lugh is not overpowered in the slightest. Think about it. He only has 5 skills. Like every human. Sure, his skills are very good, but they aren't all even S class skills. The hero has like 30 skills. Many are S class. The hero is literally a god. With 30+ skills, the hero is literally a monster, powerful as a god, maybe even more powerful. You look at what Lugh did with only 5 skills. Now imagine what the hero could do with 30+ skills. The hero must be unfathomably powerful. The Hero is overpowered, Lugh is just highly optimized.

    fun fact: in the Light Novel there's some math behind this. The spear was sent up at -2x gravity for three minutes, meaning it gets a total altitude of 1023.5km, from which it then falls and impacts the ground at 4480km/h(mach 14). The spear canonically weights 100kg, making the total force of impact 3.6*10^9 Joules. This is not the power of 111 tank shots, but rather 400 tank shots.

      I did the math and got some info from the Wiki, it takes about 3 minutes for the spear to reach the upper atmosphere at which point it's 1023.5km above the surface of the planet, when he releases the reverse gravity spell the spear falls at mach 14 or roughly 4480 m/s so it would take about 3.8 minutes to hit its target. So aiming that attack is VERY hard since he needs to basically keep someone as close to stationary as possible for almost 4 minutes to ensure the spear hits when it falls and that's provided he can adjust the fall trajectory after releasing the reverse gravity spell, if he needs to set the target zone before hand as he casts the reverse gravity spell it would be SO much harder to aim that

    You know, this reminds me of Thane Krios from Mass Effect 2, specifically his Shadow Broker assassination method preferences. When it comes to almost any race, he’ll default to snapping their necks. However, when it comes to krogans, it’s either a very complicated neck snap, or just straight-up subverting stealth altogether and blowing them up. For context, the krogan are a race with double organs, a redundant nervous system, and one of the most broken healing factors of the Mass Effect universe to the point that it’s a good idea to focus entire thermal clips on these guys FIRST if you’re fighting a krogan.
    I’m just saying, if this dude was anything like a krogan, good call to use the space nuke.

The coin would likely draw more of his attention the closer it got to the ground. In addition, by the time the rod was reaching the ground it was traveling at a speed of over 3.43 kilometers per second. The the time the rod was even close enough for him to notice, it would already be too late to dodge.

    I know some of you think this is comparable to a nuclear blast, but it really isn't. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima was 18 to 23 Kilotons of TNT. By comparison even with the magic applied, and wind resistance negated You still are looking at like 8 tons of TNT. Destructive? Yes of course But Nuclear Bomb level? Absolutely not. Modern thermonuclear bombs are around 1 million tons of TNT. If lugh managed to use his crazy spell mastery to replicate a Hydrogen bomb with 5 Megatons idfc what anybody says.

It seemed at least in the anime to be rather simple to put that rod into orbit. So why not make it twice or 3 times he'll even 100 times as massive?
