But see, I could argue that Hyperion and Krios "crumbled into ashes" only because Tartarus had managed to catch them off-guard, not giving them the chance to face him in combat, where the possibility of them doing better against him than Iapetus is high, as Tartarus uttered that statement while fighting Iapetus. At the very least, however, I hope that we can still agree upon Iapetus being objectively weaker than Hyperion, as the latter has been confirmed by both Annabeth ("The Last Olympian") and Percy ("PJ's Greek Gods") to be the 3rd strongest Titan, after Kronos and Atlas, and therefore by definition more powerful than Krios. Hence, another reason why Hyperion crumbling to ashes from Tartarus' attack while Iapetus did not is not a good argument.
