@Oceanhalo12

While you're right in a sense, I think we can agree to an extent that this is one of the problems and flaws in Heroes of Olympus. Percy was able to almost destroy the poison goddess in The House of Hades. Percy was able to to kill Antaeus with almost no experience with giants (that's size and strength). Percy was able to almost kill the most powerful cyclops in The Sea of Monsters even though he was hopelessly outmatched. You're right, and that's why I have a problem with that, since it seems contradictory, inconsistent and repetitive. We know the heroes are almost always gonna win. But at the same time, there are examples where experience truly shines, like Percy fighting in the War games or his fight against Polybotes, something that's the others wouldn't be able to do without the experienced, something even Reyna realized (his experience and skills.) but yea your right in a sense. Tbh I kinda just ignore the Akhlys battle because its absolutely idiotic and impossible. Well, to be fair, he didn't only control poison though. Besides just drowning her in her own poison, he was also literally suffocating her with her own tears. Now that's insane, forget about the poison part. Now, imagine with that anger and hungriness of destroying her, and imagine using that energy when it comes to strength alone. He'd literally murder anyone. That;s what I say that Percy is much stronger than Frank on a bad day, he'd be almost impossible to stop. But still the poison was the main thing and it shouldn have been possible.
