Okay, first of all, they Commander already said that Nico can't summon skeletons/ghosts, since they are companions, like Blackjack and Ms. O'leary, so that's out already.

Percy has much more control of Cryokinesis, since he can actually control it, unlike Nico, so that's an advantage for Percy already.

Percy's hurricanes can deflect all the bones Nico summons, so that's out as well, since Percy's hurricanes can be used as a defense, as he has done a number of times. Plus, I already showed you who powerful his hurricanes can be, so deflecting multiple bones won't be nothing, since his hurricanes have deflected stronger things...Plus, Percy can summon shields of water like he did in The Last Olympian.

As for shadows, I already explained that Nico can't use Shadow travel, so that's out as well.

As for endurance, I've already shown that Percy is much more resistant to Nico, unless you didn't read my post...

As for Geokinesis, that advantage is mostly only available underground, since Nico almost never does it above ground...Plus, it is unknown if Percy has it, though it's possible that he does have some control. Here's what the wiki says: It is unknown if Percy Jackson truly has some degree of this ability. The eruption he caused on Mount Saint Helens during the Battle of the Labyrinth was a result of a large explosion of water. He also makes fissures by stabbing Riptide in the ground, [1][2] but it is unknown if this was caused by Percy, Riptide, or the structure was simply weak enough to crack.

Anyways, with or without the ability, geokinesis wouldn't be so useful, since Percy would most likely fight in the ocean or be, Nico is in a disadvantage already.

As for Nico radiating fear, Percy has never been afraid of him, only concerned, despite Frank and Jason being afraid of him. I'll also mention Percy has seen much things worse than Nico's fear aura, so that won't affect him, especially since he can fight still despite being very afraid, like shown in The House of Hades.

As for Nico ghostifying, I'll say that's even more unfair since Percy can't blood bend now (Ghostifying should be cancelled as well), since he only did that once, almost died if it weren't for Coach Hedge, received tons of strength from Reyna, had to be extremely angry...so that won't be able to happen so easily, like you think, also, it's even more limited than Percy controlling poisons.

Percy is the best in combat, but also has much more environmental/battle awareness than Nico, meaning, Percy asleep can cause him to awake if she senses danger, like the example I gave in The Last Olympian and more intelligent that him in combat, so, that's is more than simply being the best swordsman.

Also, you are really limiting Percy water-powers, since he can trap, grab, solidify...

Also, the reason why Nico can't summon skeletons/ghosts is because they are considered companions, since they help him, so it wouldn't be fair, unless Percy can have Blackjack than.
