I don't remember it but I haven't read the comics since I was a kid.

Professor X mentions that Jean Grey is the first Class 5 he has ever encountered.

I would think Prof. X and Magneto would be class five. :confused:

What distinctions does the comic use and where are our favorite mutants placed in it?

Does someone like Wolverine get bumped up because of his admantium inserts, or does it only include mutant powers?
 
Omega[only X-men that are Omega are jean,Iceman and Elixer]
Alpha[Magneto,XavierStorm,Cyclops etc etc]
Beta[Beast, Angel, Kitty]
 
Optic, do you have a complete list of where every mutant lies on that?

I know every mutant from Cable and before, but none of the newer ones.

Also, what determines the level?

Danger to humanity?
 
What determines the level is the potential for their powers. Thats why Iceman is Omega level. If he believed in himself more, he would advance to having complete control of all water substances, not just ice.

Storm is actually an Omega level mutant. ;)

I thought beta level mutants were those whose ONLY mutation was something like just being blue.

Ah... actually, I was.

Oh, okay...[awkward]. Well, Ororo is not actually an omega class mutant, even though she can be extremely destructive. She's alpha-class, albeit a powerful one.

Do you have proof of this?
 
I'm not here to prove how much 'better Storm is than everyone else'. But from what I've learnt and read, it proves that she is indeed an Omega.
 
I hope Iceman becomes the level 5 mutant he really is sometime in the future ;)
 
What I've read it proves Scarlet witch is an omega class mutant,but she isn't..people can get alot of things from reading and its debatable but not confirmed..

That has a complete list of Storm's history and characteristics.

Ororo is a mutant with the psionic ability of atmokinesis - the ability to manipulate the weather over the entire planet. When controlling weather elements, her eyes illuminate a white color and aura. She can manifest any degree of wind, temperature, lightning, storm, and all manner of precipitation, tornadoes and hurricanes. Storm actually has the ability to affect the weather on a cosmic scale, but does not because she is very environmentally conscious. Storm has been known to create cosmic turbulence when a Sentinel was about to affect the Earth with a gamma gun to draw a solar flare from the sun to the Earth. Storm is cassfied as an Omega-Level Mutant.

Storm is immune to all effects of weather: her body changes to compensate for the extremes she engineered; i.e. her body temperature would rise as she caused her surroundings to become cold. She has the ability to project, focus and aim force blasts of extreme electrical bolts from her hands or the sky using her elemental powers. Storm can alter her visual perceptions so as to see electrical energy patterns in an object and in the air as well as other energies that deal with the weather. She can also change the body temperature of anyone by manipulating that temperature and lowering or raising it. The temperature manipulation of the human body also gives her the stunning ability to drain the electrical energy from mutants brainwaves that will literally cause them to lose power. At times, she has been able to use her ability to manipulate wind in a manner that resembles telekinesis, lifting massive objects and hurling them against opponents.

By manipulating the winds Storm can fly at incredible heights and speeds. She has even been known to stop projectiles such as bullets by using her ability to manipulate the wind and could accelerate her breathing as well. Not only can she stop most physical attacks with her powers, but she can also generate electric fields, magnetic fields, high-density pressure fields, and even electromagnetic fields. Storm once even generated an electrolysis field underwater to surround herself and her teamates with a globe of oxygen in their proximity. Aside from the abilities granted by her mutation, Ororo is highly intelligent and an able strategist and field commander of the X-Men. She also has some minor telepathic defenses (creating intense electrical currents) and most physical defenses (strong pressure domes that can cut through a mountain and withstand a metal bat). Storm has empathy/infinity for the earth-and apparently the entire universe. She is aware of every living thing and could even "sense" if a tree is ill.

Storm also has the potienal to wield white magic from her bloodlines. This is a gift she has due to the fact that her ancestor's were priestesses. In an alternate timeline storm taught Magik lllyana Rasputin how to use her magic. With white magic, Storm was able to Astral Travel, Teleport, Heal herself and others, cast spells, create force fields and more.

Storm also has been able to control solar wind and ocean currents. Her days as a thief have given her mastery of skills normally used by professional thieves, such as stealth, breaking into heavily fortified areas and picking locks (she always keeps a set of lockpicks in whatever current costume she wears). She is also an excellent combatant in both armed and unarmed combat, having been instructed by Wolverine.


I'm leading towards Omega...
 
Once again Fox dumbs down the script thinking that moviegoers won't understand Greek terms. Hey let's just use numbers, that'll be the same! :rolleyes:
 
I don't normally trust Wikipedia either... not very reliable. But this information does seem valid.
 
Isn't Magneto supposed to be Omega since he is supposedly one of the most powerful mutants in the world..

In my opinion, Magneto should definitely be at an Omega level.
 
The movies water down the powers of the mutants... in the comics, their powers exceed everything they're made to be in the movies. Magneto and Storm's powers, especially.
 
Never truist Wikipedia. One time I edited Storms article to say that she used Salsa Dancing as her finishing move when her weather powers weren't enough. It got edited though. But yeah dont trust it.
 
Magneto isnt an Omega being powerful dont classify u as an omega mutant.

The only CONFIRMED ones are Iceman,Jean,Kid Omega, Cable, etc

Rumored: Storm (Apocalypse showed her true potential in Ages of Apocalypse when she was a pure elemental being here)

Gambit: in his own series he was able to destroy worlds with his power new sun gambit anyways. His potential is amazing along w/Storms.

Scarlett Witch: Reality Warper she has always been rumored to be Omega

Xavier and Magneto are NOT omegas just very powerful mutants.
 
This is one thing that killed the Movie for me. What ever happened to Power Displays & the Psychic Mutants just sensing how Powerful they are :o To me it seemed very silly they needed Numbers. Is the General Audiene that ******ed :confused:

I have always heard this but never understood it. I am a die-hard Storm fan and I to believe that she's Omega, but her being in an elemental form..what is it? I would like to know about Gambit as well, what are his "new sun powers"?
 
Oh god can we not get into the Storm crap..JUST LET IT GO.

Storm is NOT an omega untill it is said in the comics that she is.

Just because her fans want her to be omega does not make her one.

At the moment she is classesd at higher Alpha along with Xavier, Magneo, Cyclops, Cable[not omega but damm powerfull, i think you are thinking of X-man] and so on.

Which seems fair to me as Magneto has beat her plenty of times with a whole team of x-men and he is not an omega.

And javon Alpha level are very powerfull mutants, but they have limits to there powers. Omegas do not have any limits and massive potential.

Beta mutants are people whos mutations is not an offensive one..such as
Angel and kitty and so on.
