Percy trained for 5 years in CHB, and Jason has trained for 12 years in CJ. Include the fact, That Roman Training is much more harsher and more intense than Greek Training, resulting stronger and more resistant Demigods. It's dissapointing to see the fact that Jason has trained 7 more years than Percy, and Percy is, if not better, exactly equal with Jason. Another example. Frank has trained about a month in CJ, but as of now, he is almost right up with Percy and Jason in sword fighting. Percy trained and battled monsters 5 years longer than Frank, and Jason 12, and Frank is just as capable as Percy and Jason in defeating killing Monsters. Trainig means almost nothing, it's the experience you got in the outside world.

Frank's life depends on a stick. Jason got stopped with a brick. Yeah, they're way more resistant.
 * Annabeth was able to defeat Arachne with a broken ankle (though not in combat)
 * Percy was able to DESTROY the misery goddess. WHILE IN TARTARUS.

Frank is nowhere near Percy and Jason's swordfighting skills. Even though Jason trained at Camp Half-Blood for what, a few months? He still fights more or less like a Roman.

As said here: GeoffXx08 wrote: Percy has that unorthodox fighting style that allows him to improvise during fights making his enemies confused until it's too late for them to realize that the Riptide is sticking out on their body while they turn into dust.

This is an excellent point, because while Jason fights like a Roman, he's pretty much limited to stabbing. Percy has a way bigger variety of moves and strategies he can perform. Like he described with Quintus, being able to fight like chess. Putting all the moves together that you don't understand until he ends up with the sword at your throat. Luke would die of laughter at the Roman fighting style, sorry. But Frank and Jason may be more skilled in their style of fighting, but Percy is a better swordsman. He makes use of his resources.

Haha I thought about this, like, Camp Half-Blood isn't named Camp Zeus. That may have something to do with Jupiter perhaps being more proud in his Roman state. Though I don't think we've ever seen Jupiter. I hope they didn't have a choice in naming it, if so, well I just don't see why Zeus is the big shot god all the time. His powers are clearly equal with his brothers, and Hades is the oldest brother. Just my thoughts though...
