Whether or not someone is capable of harnessing mana, they passively generate magical power as it is required to live. Certain magitech can even take a read on how much of this energy flows through a person, though it's purely a measure of their raw magical potency rather than their overall combat skill. There are five tiers that individuals might be placed under depending on this reading.
*Basic: Minimum of 10 Magic Power.
*Intermediate: Minimum of 50 Magic Power.
*Master: Minimum of 100 Magic Power. Higher than 70% of Magi.
*Exalted: Minimum of 300 Magic Power. Higher than 95% of Magi.
*Mythic: Minimum of 1000 Magic Power. Among the millions that live in Esshar, there's rarely more than a hundred at a time within this tier.
Quantifying the above would be something like the following, though it naturally varies from person to person as specializations differ. This is meant to act as a rough guide and base line for a character's speed (including reflex) and how much power a focused, average attack delivered by them might pack. Generally speaking if they generate that much force they're also durable enough to defend against similar impact from another person.
*Basic: Avg. sprint of 20MPH, a standard attack generates enough force to crack stone.
*Intermediate: Avg. sprint of 30MPH, a standard attack generates enough force to destroy a wall.
*Master: Avg. sprint of 60MPH, a standard attack generates enough force to destroy a small house.
*Exalted: Avg. sprint of 100MPH, a standard attack generates enough force to destroy a large house.
*Mythic: Avg. sprint of 150MPH, a standard attack generates enough force to destroy a small mountain.
A magi's power scaling can be between two tiers, naturally, rather than one or the other. The attack force is also their standard, focused strike, rather than their absolute limit. It is their baseline.
