It is sort of like in (American) Football, where some teams despite seemingly being better still lose to other teams. A good example is when the Patriots were having an undefeated season, but lost the Superbowl to the Giants. No one would consider the Giants a better team and they were beat a lot in regular season, making it in on a wild card. Yet the Giants had what was required to win.

I'm not saying your list is wrong, only that the idea of making a list to determine who is strongest is impossible to determine. There are two many factors to consider, even if you set certain perimeters. As stated before, you have the four guys on top and the three girls on the bottom. Jason being number 1 means that Piper would be the strongest as because he is in love with her, Charmspeak would be twice as strong and she could get him to do whatever, even take out the other 5.

Another thing is that deserts don't have much water on the surface, but many of them have large deposits of groundwater that Percy could call up. If Piper used charmspeak, Frank and Annabeth would come up with plans to take out one or both of them quickly. Hazel may also help take them down with her own Mist control, but in all honesty who knows? For every advantage a character has, there are plenty of what if's to counter. User:Jasonrules said that Time is at the end of Mark of Athena. Hazel didn't know how to manipulate the Mist at that time.
