One of my favorite theories I read about PA is that in the first scene he was introduced. He was set on killing Albedo and Yuri for entering the vault. Since no one is allowed to enter the vault without permission. the moment they enter the vault PA sensed it and took Albedo’s creators form. Due to the fact that Albedo would hesitate to fully attack her creator. He only changes to his original form because Ainz steps in and tells him to stop.

That is a good theory. Though another that is probably more likely is that he took Tabula's form at that time because he was checking and organizing the potions and other alchemic stuff in the treasury, and only stopped doing that because he sensed Ainz, Albedo, Yuri and Shizu(in the novel) arrive.

It's an obvious point of contention. Ains has had to address it a few times. All the other npcs in nazarick kind of hate him, from a jealous point of view. He's the only one made by Ains, so his status in the guild is unique. There is scene were Ains calls him his son and he is proud of him and one day wants PA to surpase him, but tells PA that he will not treat him differently because that might cause strife in the guild.

@@Spoopball I seem to recall some of this interaction from episode 1 of season 4, but the other NPCs aren’t envious of him. Ainz was worried that they might *become* jealous if it became known that he viewed Pandora’s Actor as his own child, because he misinterpreted Fith’s crying as being due to jealousy when she heard him say that he thought of Pandora’s Actor as *his* child. In reality, she was crying because she felt that Ainz was reminding everyone present that he cared deeply for them (To the point he effectively considered them his family), as he’d done many times in the past.

he's cringey because of Momonga. Remember, majority of the members were gamers and they role play hardcore (Momonga the most). So seeing PA is quite cringey for him when NPCs started having their own personality. He is reminded on how cringey he was. Not to mention, he also now realizes that his design for PA is quite... incel-like (because nazi), which again in their guild, it is normal as they are a bunch of misfits, cringey and sometimes edgelords (shut in humours, so to say) so that's probably why they never questioned it.

I find it quite interesting that Pandoras actor was silently waiting for albedo as Tabula, considering how only guild members are allowed in the treasury, it seems that PA sensed albedo and made preparations to kill her and considering their loyalty toward the supreme ones this may have made albedo hesitant with attacking allowing Pandora to have a higher chance in killing her. He truly is one of the most dangerous beings in Nazarick considering his intelligence and unparalleled flexibility to any situation.

PA's true strength is that he has access to everything in the treasury, he would likely fight like Ain did against Shalltear, only much more variety of weaker versions of abilities and switch to any member of the guild including other floor guardians if needed. The massive variety of abilities and spells and equipment gives him a huge advantage alone, but maybe he has a secret that only Ain's knows that would make him stronger still.

My headcanon somewhat opposes yours. Ainz is subconsciously smart. Suzuki Satoru, player of Momonga, is the one who is conscious and is in control of the body. While Momonga's intelligence stats acts as the subconscious that "guides" Satoru's actions. So while Suzuki Satoru thinks he's doing things like an idiot, Momonga makes it so that things will work anyways. Suzuki Satoru is the soul, Momonga is the vessel. Momonga's stats affect Satoru though Satoru doesnt notice... Or smth like that

I once argued with a guy when Pandora's actor met PDL in volume 14 of the LN, the argument was something to do with both parties holding back testing each other, and Pandora's actor during that confrontation was basically a level 80 Ains but someone corrected me and I don't know if what he's saying is true or no but I'll drop it here, " Strength gain in Yggdrasil is exponential, meaning that the higher level you are, the increase in power you have is greater." and then another thing he said "Pandora's Actor as Ainz isn't a level 80 version of Ainz. Strength gain in Yggdrasil is exponential, meaning that the higher level you are, the increase in power you have is greater. "The gap in strength between a level 70 and a level 80 would be far smaller compared to a level 80 and level 90. Pandora's actor only having 80% of the strength of Ainz would probably be something like... a level 95 version of Ainz, not level 80, considering that strength gain in Yggdrasil is exponential, not linear." And to be honest he kind of convinced me.

Oh God, Pandora's Actor is even more OP than I thought. I didn't know growth was exponential. While we can't work with exact calculations from Yggdrasil, just using powers of 1.15 which result in realistic numbers for stats in a normal game. We can demonstrate how massive of a difference in power 80% of LVL 100 is in comparison to LVL 80. 1.15 to the 100th is = 1,174,313 80% of that is = 939,450 1.15^80 = 71,750 1.15^95 = 583,841 Even LVL 95 is under half the stats of LVL 100 in this particular overly simplified example. LVL 80 is just over 6%. His transformation ability coupled with the fact that he has access to all of the guild members' equipment, which were stated to be largely responsible for a player's power, he would absolutely body any of the other guardians if his tactics are on point.

The descriptions on Doppelganger is 80% as capable. So a maximized magic fireball from a doppelganger impersonating someone would be 80% as powerful as the original, if for example the original was 100 damage the doppel's would be 80. Its incorrect to think its a straight stat based though as a 20% reduction in magic stats would have a greater than 20% reduction on output. Also skills and abilities can presumed to have stat restrictions, aka fireball requires a magic stat level of X to be able to use. Since a doppelganger is supposed to have access to all abilities of the impersonated if the original build just barely meet the restrictions if the stat was reduced the doppel would suddenly not have access. The likeliest answer is the stats are same as the original but the outcome is the only thing being reduced and so what that actually means in terms of level equivalent is a lot harder to pin down. Though its safe to say it wouldn't be a direct 20 level difference.

I was thinking the 20% debuff would work only on the output, not on stats; If the original deals 100 damage, then the copy deals 80. If it was like what was said in the video, it would make the race almost entirely useless in PvP, being extremely situational.

@@megadbow7379 Yeah, I haven't watched the supercut video, but based on what I remember of the original video on that part, he got it wrong. PA gets ALL of the powers, skills and spells of the forms, levels included. The 80% is only for the damage and effectiveness output of skills and spells. Then, for the summons, they aren't affected by the 80% because they are their own beings (this is further confirmed in volume 14). Then there's also how if the skill or spell in question doesn't have a variable that can make it weaker/stronger or less/more effective, then it won't be affected by the 80% thing. A good example of that is Ainz's The Goal Of All Life Is Death skill, which simply makes it impossible to resist the next instant death spell or skill used by making it ignore all resistances and immunities and also bypassing the ability check that would normally decide whether the target resists the effect or not. 80% of impossible to block is still impossible to block since the skill removes he concept of effectiveness.

@@sancturillore thanks for the explanation. PA is actually OP, looking that way. Still has lots of limitations. However, with due preparation before a fight or event (such as Ainz does), he could 1v1 many stronger characters, if not all we know (in my point of view). It is more a matter of strategy to him. And also, his mana cost and time between transformations is something to consider. He would also have to carry a mixed variety of items depending on the situation. Maybe, when thinking about 1v1 another lvl 100 NPC, he could choose a hybrid build that counters it (and he would choose to alternate between 2 characters in order to create OP combos). In fact, the combinations he could think of to defeat an enemy are only limited by his imagination. Specially regarding the fact that he has copied the form of all guild members and thus, has all kinds of classes at hand to play with. As mentioned in the video, in many situations he wouldn't even need to face an enemy in close range. Ie: access to high tier summon spells, channeling spells, abilities such as The Goal of All Life is Death, and then changing to a tank character while restores his mana, or an archer character to keep the distance while deals damage over time and finishes the enemy. In fact, Overlord's world is very complex and the 20% debuff dmg/def wouldn't be a simple math.

It seems that people are still underestimating PA's combat potential. Though he does have the 20% debuff on his stats (besides HP and MP) when he transforms, he has the knowledge and tactical acumen to transform into the hardest possible counter for his opponent, with even more options to spare due to having access to and knowledge of all 41 Supreme Beings and their specialties. He did it when he first met Albedo by turning into Tabula, the person she would have been least likely to attack had her character settings not been messed with by Ainz. PA also has the patience and cunning to play his opponents in order to get them to leak information about themselves, like when he duels PDL and manages to learn nearly everything about him combat-wise. Coupled with the World Items that he is in charge of safe-keeping, which can easily make up for that 20% debuff and then some, he can become a powerhouse tailored to each opponent, making it near-impossible to beat him unless you have the most min-max build possible, such as with Shalltear or Rubedo. He plays the fool, but in the end, the real fool ends up being the person foolish enough to get in the way of either him or Ainz.

if anything it was a good idea that ainz somehow placed a some sort of factor for pandroa's actor to play as a comic relif at times cause if he wasn't he's practically the most terrifying being in nazarick he's one of the most powerful can mimic other people and even supreme beings and to some extent copy their power or skill and he was set to be as smart or even smarter than albedo and demiurge and him having a curious nature which was brought up with him questioning ainz in a way to understand ainz thought's means he would be more lkely to play a battle like ainz than any other with orders and that means pandora's actor next to shaltear is probably the beste pvp character in the tomb because he will take almost to the same extent ainz's preparedeness when it comes to pvp

I was thinking maybe “lord of the castle” could also give you a discount on the upkeep of the tomb? It kinda fits perfectly and gives another reason as to why Ainz would have given it to him. If he knew that one of the perks was a discount on the monthly upkeep of Nazerick, you better believe he would have spec’d Pandora into it. Edit: Also, I’m not sure if it’s in the LN, but in the anime, he hasn’t tried using the staff on ainz to edit the flavour text of anyone else since being transported to the new world. Would it work? Because we do know that consoles n stuff still work, eg: the master source.

While generating gold is definitely a possibility for the lord classes, the bigger benefit in my mind would be the discounts since it's stated that Pandora's Actor has the role of allotting gold for the upkeep of Nazarick's various defenses. If Ainz was struggling to make enough money for the upkeep of Nazarick, having all the upkeep purchases go through one specialized in getting discounts would probably be worth far more gold in the long run over any amount that Pandora's Actor would generate passively.

I think something that should be taken into account when it comes to Pandora's Actor is that he likely has extremely broken special abilities, and this is based upon Shalltear's fight with Ainz who has a few powerful special abilities that are basically 'secrets'. Also taking into consideration of Ainz's personality, who is essentially a min/maxer, it's not hard to believe that PA would probably have a special ability called "True Copy", and its effect would be obvious in that it removes the 20% penalty. It might have restrictions as in "next form taken only" or a time-limit but odds seem to be really high that he would have something that negates the penalty. This would play directly into Ainz's style of combat: To act weak to gather information, then strike proper. People would engage with PA under the assumption that he only has 80% strength, even acting shocked and surprised when he 'fails' to do any damage to an opponent who had worked out that they could be 'immune' to PA's attacks, only to then land a mortal blow out of nowhere when they were convinced that PA was utterly helpless. If PA has more than one special ability I think another one would be "All from One" to allow him access to any ability of any form he can change into, this again would play into the idea of being weaker than you really are tactic. That his opponents would figure that he's limited to the abilities of the form he's using, but then when his opponents feel they are safe he launches an attack from a form that directly counters his opponent. Some others could potentially be instant access to all of the items in the treasury while he's in the treasury, so he doesn't have to run to particular chests/storage areas to equip items; probably instant equipping like how Ainz was quickly swapping between weapons when fighting Shalltear. Another possible one could be "True Potential" in where he can copy beings of lower level, but does so as if they were level 100. Instant transformation would be another useful one to have, though if an option would probably lower down the priority list of things to have. The last consideration that if PA is supposed to be in Ainz's eyes the manifestation of the might of all of Nazarick, then I could also see a possibility that one of his abilities allows for all of the weapons and armor in the treasury to be 'used' all at the same time. Which might be via the form of summoning an army of some sort that would be able to wear everything, or something that actually animates everything to attack invaders. Though this would probably be more for show than actual combat effectiveness. It would be quite the appropriate final and dramatic last stand: Animated statues of the Supreme Beings wearing their gear and an army of summons wielding the accumulated wealth of the treasury, facing down whatever had defeated the rest of the Great Tomb up to that point. If Ainz played into this kind of build I could see it playing out as whenever a summon was destroyed PA could summon a new one which would instantly reequip the fallen summon's gear that it dropped. One final thought is that PA might have needed to stand in for a Supreme Being in the event one of them couldn't show up for a dungeon or raid. He could fill in the role of whoever couldn't show up, and if this is the case then he could be additionally dangerous simply due to him being one of the few NPCs that would have actually fought alongside the Supreme Ones and has that kind of experience. The way I see Pandora's Actor is he's essentially Ainz, but without the emotion suppression. All of the NPCs in Nazarick ultimately adopted personalities similar to their creators and it's obvious that PA would be the same as well. I mean at the end of the day Ainz has a flair for the dramatic as well.

Shalltear didn't have any secret abilities. Ainz pretended to be surprised to make her waste skills and MP. If she figured out he was biding time to recharge his super tier magic she'd have rushed him down to a PK. Peroroncino was more a straight min/max. Ainz was a role playing "learn all" magic caster... id even say Tabula Rasa min maxed more than ainz.

i think you are underrestimating Pandoras Actor, having access to all the Vaults gear covers almost all of his weaknesses. Yeah a 20% idecrease could be devestating, but is it if you just pick a class that completely counters your opponent if not even tutoring yourself on the spot against a type or types of opponents. He might not be the Ace in any of the categories on his own but having a hand of kings is only beaten out by a hand of aces. Also having access to all those forms, means the he probably has a lot of info on many races. In a way he is one of the strongest floor guardians because he can negate basically any counter you might have against any class.

@@michaellaidley8644 Evil eye side story, it's a what IF story, it's happening basically in a parallel world to the original, in that world Ainz arrived 200 years earlier and alone with nothing but his sentient guild staff to accompany him, also as luck would have it Keanu's country was just turned into an undead country by Elder Coffin, the undead dragon lord, he meets Keanu and befriends her, he doesn't use Ainz as his name instead opting to use his real name Suzuki Satoru, he later fought and killed Elder Coffin and Hunts down the entire High Undead Community, basically the guys who founded Zuranoon which is itself a splinter cell organization of a bigger one, you can see them in Volume 15 in the main story, then after 200 years it cuts off to Ainz leading a pack of various races numbering 40 I believe?(memories a bit hazy) in a raging desert just to later stop when watching the beautiful view after the sandstorm, we find out that with Keanu's insistence in order for Suzuki to once again feel loved and happy, they ended up Re-Creating Ainz Ooal Gown with new local members, only this time instead of a PVP killer guild it's now geared towards Adventuring and exploring the unknown, ironically he really did pull off what he said to the E rantel guild master and became a true adventurer, then it cuts off to Keanu and Ainz sharing a room inside Nazarick 2.0 where Keanu is literally laying in bed behind Suzuki's back(eat your heart out Albedo 😆) while Suzuki reads a report about how all the countries located in the entire south continental region got completely wiped out of existence with the only thing that still exist is a country name Nazarick, which gave both Suzuki and Keanu a big shock. Also side note: We finally see the Guild weapons true full power when Ainz was fighting Elder Coffin and that it's actually a sentient NPC as well, albeit it doesn't talk and simply commutate via simple gestures, in it's active state it can basically double your attacks, for example if Ainz used fireball it will also use fireball, and since it's sentient that means it can work in tandem with Ainz and launch that fireball in a different angle where it will deal more damage.

I think Yggdrassil followed DnD's logic for potencies. I think that because they use a tier system for skills and magic, same as DnD. So for example, there is an ability that grants you a magic forcefield armor, it's damage reduction is fixed BUT, it's actual potency comes from it's duration, the higher the main casting stat for the characters class is, the longer the force field lasts. Let's say the main casting stat is Intelligence, at 15 INT, the duration of the force field is 20 minutes, but at 20 INT, the duration get's pumped up to 60 minutes, for Pandora's actor, I would say that the 20% reduction for this particular spell is it's duration, not the fixed damage reduction, because in many MMO's, there are such abilities called "fixed" skills, meaning no matter what your stats are, they have a fixed numbered effect which isn't affected by other means, for example in DNF, there are % skills and Fixed skills, % skills are affected by buffs, debuffs, ETC, but fixed skills do raw numbers dependent on the skill level. Now, if Yggdrasil also has skill levels/skill mastery separate from Skill tiers, the 20% reduction could maybe instead be towards the mastery and in that case it indeed is an overall 20% reduction in all regards, but in DNF a single skill level could have as much as a 40% increase in skills output, so in that case 20% in lowered potencies could be a massive loss, but as far as I know, Yggdrasil does not use a skill mastery system. So for example let's say the skill Fireball is skill mastery lvl 10, which is maxed, and at lvl 10 it does 5000% potency, but at lvl 9 it did 4100% and at 8 it did 3300%, that would be a massive loss in damage for that alone if it was -20%, but what if it was also -20% on skill mastery and anaother -20% on skill multiplier, that would make pandoras actor usage of fireball closer to only being lvl 6 instead of 8. On another example, if it was a fixed skill, lets say Fireball has mastery level but at lvl 10 the fixed damage is 25k, but at lvl 8 it's 19k, but again, -20%, so Pandora's Actor can use it at a lvl of a 8, however, this time the fireball skills also applies a 1 minute burning DoT which also does fixed damage, but again -20%, it's pumped down to a 48 second DoT 3rd example, there is no skill level, the fireball has a fixed base value of 1k damage + 500% of your INT stat. Now, does it first calculate your INT and adds it to the base value and then -20% or is it only 80% of the 500% multiplier? because if you first do the skill calculations and then -20%, it's a much smaller loss in damage than reducing the multiplier itself by 20%. In DNF, all these different variations actually exist, and it's meta to build % skills for PvE, and fixed skills in PvP.(because in PvP, your stats are all normalized to a set threshold to make the fights fair, thus fixed skills are more useful.)

Thanks for the video. PA is actually OP even in 1v1 fights, in my point of view. Still has lots of limitations. However, with due preparation before a fight or event (such as Ainz does), he could 1v1 many stronger characters. It is more a matter of strategy to him. And also, his mana cost and time between transformations is something to consider. He would also have to carry a mixed variety of items depending on the situation. Maybe, when thinking about 1v1 another lvl 100 NPC, he could choose a hybrid build that counters it (and he would choose to alternate between 2 characters in order to create OP combos). In fact, the combinations he could think of to defeat an enemy are only limited by his imagination. Specially regarding the fact that he has copied the form of all guild members and thus, has all kinds of classes at hand to play with. As mentioned in the video, in many situations he wouldn't even need to face an enemy in close range. Ie: in a fight, he has access to high tier summon spells, channeling spells, abilities such as The Goal of All Life is Death, and can then change to a tank character while restores his mana, or an archer character to keep the distance while deals damage over time and finishes the enemy. Imagine also playing the assassin, and then changing to a mage and teleport away. Or even, using a mage build to buff his attacks, and then changing to assassin to finish an anemy quickly. In fact, Overlord's world is very complex and the 20% debuff dmg/def wouldn't be a simple math. Specially because of the abilities that are not affected by this percentage-based debuffs, along items and potions that could be used.

The huge advantage of a doppelganger as you've described it however is that it can choose to imitate characters and classes that it's enemy has an inherent weakness against thus negating the 20% or 64% debuff issue. To simplify it to a Pokémon battle if your doppelganger is a mimic with three potential forms, Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur and your enemy is a Pikachu you're obviously going to go with Charmander as your chosen form because water types and plant types are vulnerable to electricity. Alternatively if Pikachu is one if your possible forms and you're up against Squirtle then of course you're gonna make that turtle ride the lightning because of it's electrical weakness.

A question that I've always pondered and hope we get an answer to at some point is: What are his other saved forms? Personally I think one of them is a denizen of the eighth floor hierarchy or maybe even Rubedo herself. It just makes sense he'd have the strongest entity of Nazarick in his arsenal.

Fighting PA is like fighting 41 members of the Tomb of Nazarick, he can freely transform into them despite having 80% of their full power that is ridiculously powerful along with their weapons. If Ainz gave him alot of that instant weapon change World Item he could annihilate hordes of powerful heroes alone. If he was fighting defensive with the treasury he would be unstoppable with all the weapons he can use.

mabey the higher levels allow it to "doppel" magical items or equipment. It would fit into his role in the tomb. He knows all the items, work with them etc.. and it would work within the "evolution" of skills and game mechanics into the new world. It would make him an absolut powerhouse last bastion in the heart of the great tomb

Sure the 20% is a drawback but his skills are based on knowledge. If he goes into a fight knowing an enemy's physical or elemental weakness and changes into a creature that is balanced in both he can be quite formidable.

I personally think the 20 percent decrease just means the stats like attack and magical attack they copy when they change form are just 20% less, so he would have 80 percent of ainz’s magical attack if he copied him. That’s all it really needs to be.

I am just thinking that Albedo asked Ainz to have Pandora's Actor as her adjutant on her death squad. Knowing that PA is absolutely loyal to Ainz and his wishes, and assuming he knows that Ainz really cares about his guildmates, there is a high likelihood that in the situation where Albedo and her death squad meets a guild member that they want to kill, PA will most likely decide to betray her and save the guild member for Ainz. Though I honestly think a scenario where Ainz would meet another guildmate in the story is highly unlikely since the story would already end in Volume 18. The more likely scenario would be that Albedo's scheme would get revealed near the end of the story, and Ainz would somehow have to deal with it.

Its also hard to guage how much of a limiter that 20% is since we dont know how level gain increases power... is it linear or exponential?? If its linear then transformed hed be a level 80 npc, if its exponential he might be from 80 to 99 depending on how steep the curve is on power increase

Floor Guardians are guards to stop raid teams, they are important. But Pandora's Actor is the guard of the vault, a treasury that houses the MOST powerful priced possessions by the supreme beings. That should give you the idea how strong PA is considering he is the impenetrable final line of defense of the most crucial area of Nazarick.

I remember in a different overlord video he said that the person with more opinions has the advantage, so PA is… idk where I was going with this. But thats cool. Another thing he said was that a smaller group of players are weaker because they have to spread themselves thiner than a larger group of players, but PA kind of doesn’t have those restrictions.

One thing that i would like to say regarding PA's ability to shapeshift is that i think it's actually pretty strong. While you may be "weaker" in each of the things you imitate, you can make up for that by reducing your weaknesses. If you're fighting an undead, shapeshift into your cleric friend. If you're fighting a tank, shapeshift into your assassin or smiper friend. He nay not be as great at each of those things as others, but he can change to counter whatever/whomever he's fighting at any given time.

Watching the video again: I could see a few incredibly broken combos: 1) would be to use Aurelo Omega's (secret pledaies sister) Shinto maiden's buff to get +20 lvls to bridge the gap of the lvl 100 copied builds 2) the other would be to copy Victim's floor guardians build. Whenever Victim dies, it rezz's all the other dead npcs. If Pandora's Actor could copy Victim, it would be an infinite loop. (Which would explain how the 8 guild alliance with +1000 players lost)
