Raditz's rank in the Frieza force

Post by GoodboiRaditz » Mon Apr 27, 2020 11:26 pm

Raditz diplayed a power between 1200 and 1500 during his brief run , how strong was he regarded in the Frieza's army ? i remember Gohan and Kuririn destroying some random soldiers easily with a battle power of 1500 so how strong was the average goon in Freeza's army ? It's strange that Raditz was looked upon as a wimp by his comrades but he could actually stomps most of the frieza's force

He was regarded as a low-class Saiyan I think, and the Saiyans were already subject to racism from many of the other races working for Freeza.

How strong do you think the other frieza's soldiers were ? people who could bully the saiyans were few ( Cui , Dodoria , Zarbon and the Ginyus ) , for Nappa and Vegeta anyways that would leave Raditz to deal with the most crap and i think that Raditz was at least stronger than the average Frieza's goon

He's probably stronger than the ones who needed blasters, but there were a lot of guys stronger than him... even weak guys like Appule I think were over 2000.

Someone like Appule would have likely qualified as a high tier low ranking soldier. Raditz wasn't anything noteworthy in the Planet Trade Organisation. I think his ability to transform is likely what gave his presence on the battlefield weight. A hypothetical Oozaru Raditz would have elevated him to more of a mid-ranking soldier in the realm of Saiyan arc Vegeta and Cui, power wise.

The more powerful individuals of Freeza's Army laughed off 3 Namekian warriors, each with a power level of 1000(holding back from 3000), so Raditz' 1500 might have been seen as below average but still stronger than the vast majority of beings that were conquered by the empire.

From what we've been told (I can't remember exactly where, help me out)... Vegeta was the only one of the three Saiyans with any special rank among Freeza's forces, being up there with other extra-strong people like Zarbon, Dodoria, and the Ginyu Force. So by Freeza-Army standards, Raditz and Nappa were both ranked the same.

I expect there'd be certain levels of power-based deference when the situation called for it... like if a squad consisted of Raditz at 1,500 and a handful of mooks under 1,000, then Raditz would probably naturally take charge. But in terms of actual, technical rank, he'd be no different from any of the other non-elites.

Plus if you think about it Vegeta at his maximum was second only to Freeza. Captain Ginyu maxed out at 120,000 where's Saiyan Arc Vegeta with a full moon is a whopping 180,000 and is even more dangerous because he still has all his wits about him.

Probably a low ranking petty officer.
