Bruh if the cloak protected her from a bomb its gonna protect her from wind, and prob lightning as well, although considering she can caught an arrow mid-flight, she fast enough to dodge some lightning seriously people have felt static and then moved away from incoming lightning, I mean storm clouds are a good indicator...Not to mention neither of the Graces can summon lightning without a conductor(their weapons) and we've already seen Reyna disarm Thalia in BoO so yeah Team Ramirez has disarmed and taken away lightning either dodging or disarming. Now all they have to do is face some winds and I mean c'mon winds? Not to mention they have the power to basically lend each other strength so to doge they could just combine their collective speed and agility(although Hylla could probably dodge w/out Reyna's help). The cloak can block only physical threats, wind is still going to throw her back. Arrows is shown to travel about 150 or 200 mph. While lighting travels about 220,000 miles per hour. I think we can do some math here. Since Orion is stronger than a human, let's just say his arrows travel about 400 mph. Since Hylla caught the arrow with ease let's just say it took 5% of her effort. 100 divided by 5 equals 20. 20 times 400 equals 8,000. So that probably means that the max speed Hylla can react to is probably 8000 mph or way less. So since lightning travels at 220,000 mph, it's going to be way faster than Hylla can possibly react to. For it to be possible that Hylla CAN dodge the lightning is for the arrow to be traveling at least 11,000 miles per hour. Which is not possible since Percy could barely see a bullet that's traveling about 1,700 mph, and Percy is also a demigod with fast reflexes. Even if Reyna barely saw that arrow she can still SEE it coming to her sister. Which means Reyna eyes is supposedly about 11 times faster than Percy's. And that's impossible since Percy reflexes has to be faster than Reyna and Hylla since the fact of him being more ADHD. And haven't electric sparks flew from Thalia's body before? Her clothes aren't a conductor right. So they probably can summon lightning from insulators. Also, if you lend somebody strength, don't you take away some of your own? So if taking away some of your own power, you could be an easier target for Jason and Thalia lightning. Also, when Reyna disarmed Thalia, she was dazed and wasn't ready for it. Ea225225@Thank you,just thank you.Anyway,I doubt Reyna is 11 tomes faster than Percy.Percy is actually extremely fast.And I can't believe someone thought arrows are faster than lightning.It's just lol.
