Frieren could just catch the bullet with a magical barrier, not probably not everyone could and you could merc some spell fags but not the elf.

You'd need an infinite ammo cheat - or a mana->bullet cheat otherwise your gun is a paperweight in universe. And really a 9mm isn't ideal for the big demons, you'd realistically want a good single or burst fire rifle with some sizable mags. Especially for the war scenes - there are tons of demons in those and you'd want machine gun level suppression at that point, lest you get surrounded and turned into a meat pulp.

Of course I am assuming you aren't a little bitch and is someone who regularly whips it out and pops demons in the head without a care, like a quick draw western. ONLY then can you take out mages and shit with shields - being faster than them at "casting" bullet into forehead than they can cast shield or some shit.

Though really I'd prefer to have a belt fed M240 or M249 when going up against a mage, I'd assume they would be bullet sponges and would need a box to take em down.

Why nobody bother to invent gunpowder in Frieren universe ?
>>
>>284766696
no one thought to unlock that branch in the tech tree yet. the world is like low medieval, several hundred years before gunpowder is introduced to europe; the real-world geographical analogue.
>>
>>284766494
She's got an ego on her. So if we assume "FPS player in Isekai" rules where you can mag dupe and have zero mana in universe, Frieren is probably gonna see your ass as a non-threat because she will detect 0 mana coming off you. I don't know how normies are in her universe since they don't talk about them, but if we assume they also have 0 mana coming off them, you will blend in.

That means you can kill her easily. She won't see you coming. You can pop her from in front or from behind, she won't have defenses up. So long as you don't fight fair and warn her ass you are going to kill her, she's dead 99% of the time.

Especially if you long shot her ass with a sniper rifle. You can down the whole party if they aren't in an urban environment that way.

And that is before we talk man-portable artillery and rockets. That is a literal EXPLOSION spell that can be spammed.

You would only win if you ambushed her. if she had any reason AT ALL to suspect you could inflict a wound on her at range very quickly, she would have a thousand years of being a high-level magical operator on your ass.

if you could take up a sniper post in a bell tower and nail her in a town, yeah you could probably destroy her that way sure. high powered caliber, no chance she could put up a barrier, even if she did have one the caliber would be a huge amount of penetration, it might not matter.

still that's batman with prep time. she is the superman of that world and can destroy you easily. also once you pop her Fern will be on the hunt.

I think the day a single mage is killed from a gunshot all other mages in the continent gonna research for a projectile protection spell

>>284766696
Magic is gonna trump gunpowder when it comes to human laziness. Why manufacture items that cost a shit ton when you can fire off EXPLOSION for free and repetitively, just on cool down? Or fireball. Or ice lance. Or whatever the fuck projectile magic you want. Meteor strike is an artillery/missile equivalent.

Remember, guns require tooling, precision manufacturing, metalworking, wood working, and of course sufficient chemistry to make gunpowder. The lower tech you are, the lower the accuracy, so early guns are going to SUCK compared to any mage going "FIREBALL" which zooms in a straight line to the enemy. So even if someone invents a basic ass black powder blunder bus, a mage is gonna be FAR better on all levels than some scattershot firearm. Which takes a minute to reload, IF you have ammo.

Mage doesn't need ammo, can speed load via mana potions, and can fire a lot faster for more damage. Guns just can't compete. You really need to be a FPS gamer mage with access to the full weapon tech tree AND mag duping to be functionally equivalent to a 1st class mage. AND those fucking mages can fly!

Oh yeah, for sure. In a proper 1 on 1 duel, she's gonna be a right terror to fight. You would literally need modern FPS cheats (self-healing) and decent armament to deal with her, and settings/cover matters. Once she's airborne shit gets even harder if you have no heat seeking missiles on you. You'd be dead meat with just a 9mm sidearm.

Fern magic is literally "shoot as many small lasers as fast as possible at the target"

She is even praised for that
>>
>>284767307
Or maybe it's just inefficient when a child can melt right through a boulder that would take at least a tank cannon to get through (and possibly not in one shot) with a magic beam. Oh and you can produce a dozen at a time and they can be made to follow an arbitrary path.
>>284767368
A magic beam, not a laser. has very few of the properties of a laser. Either way, as a child she could fire one that put the biggest ship-borne laser currently in existence to shame.

Trying to match magic (breaking of the laws of physics) with science (using the laws of physics) is not a winning move.

>You'd need an infinite ammo cheat - or a mana->bullet cheat otherwise your gun is a paperweight in universe. And really a 9mm isn't ideal for the big demons
yeah, that's why I said I'd use a carbine. you can realistically carry over a thousand round of ammo and it will perform a lot better than any handgun. and if you're going to think about it logically you need to ditch the whole "solo the whole universe" part. it doesn't matter how good your gun is if you're outnumbered ten thousand to one, you're probably going to die.
>>
>>284766985
true. and I'd be willing to bet there are already spells that can stop a bullet. the problem is you can't walk around with it activated at all times.
>>
>>284767577
>artillery
Those are all incredibly inefficient on normal humans that walk, would be even worse against humans that can fly or create a 5m deep foxhole for themselves with a snap of their fingers.

Those aren't tactical weapons, you'd use those against buildings etc, but that opens a whole other can of worms with magical barriers and whatnot.

If you can beat planet buster mages with a stick, OP is canonically right about this.

>>284767773

simple solution, don't walk up to them. use a rifle and shoot them from a concealed position 100 yards or more away.
>>
>>284767974
Ok but how is this different from using magic to accelerate a metal sphere at someone the same way? If you look at the amount of matter mages throw at each-other, replicating a bullet would be no biggie.

Yet despite this mages are not easily assassinating each-other all the time in the Frieren universe.
>>
>I am built different
>>
>>284768067
because a giant fuck off laser beam is deadlier. and mages don't seem to be randomly killing each other that much anyways. any strategy that would work with a gun would probably work with magic.
>>
>>284768067
perhaps it is easier to vectorize the magic beams than it is to vectorize a metal ball

Human reaction is no less than 500ms, by the time a high caliber is heard from less than 100m, it's too late

SHE IS LITERALLY IN THE UNIVERSE
SHE IS THROWING THE BULLETROCKS
SHE IS A SECOND CLASS MAGE
SERIE FAILED HER ON THE SPOT
Ehre is actually noted to be very powerful, but also simplistic. Her only displayed spell is essentially opening a gatling barrage of pebbles on her target. It can be blocked and dodged for a time, but most mages will just get overwhelmed and gunned down because it's not like she's gonna run out of rocks. It was power worthy of first-class qualification all on its own, though her lack of confidence in herself (and summary lack of ambition) meant Serie won't give that to her.
An automatic weapon will get you decently far in Frieren. But yeah, not even top 10%. Just top 20%. Ish.

>"fling as many small rocks as possible as fast as possible at the target
During the 1st class exam Richer explains that current meta is flinging massive non-magic matter against barriers.
This was shown twice, when he almost demolished Kanne and Lavine and later when he got flushed with a like a 2 tonnes of water after Frieren broke the big barrier to let the rain in.

Those bullets have higher kinect energy and penetration, THOUGH.
>>
>>284781097
>higher kinect energy
Than the huge rocks and entire hills they throw? Absolutely not, not even close.
>penetration
Meaningless and undefined. A .50 BMG can be stopped by wearable chestplates, there's no wearable chestplate that will stop a 50kg boulder going at a few dozen meters per second.

The point remains, they are shown shooting rocks many times bigger than just about any projectile short of battleship shells at supersonic speeds. If bullets would be so good in-universe, then they'd just replicate a gun with magic by just throwing small rocks very fast (which they are shown to do a few times). Yet that isn't anything more than yet another attack in a mage's arsenal, so we can easily conclude that bullets (fired from a gun or via magic) aren't any better than a bunch of other ways to use magic.

I seriously doubt they can throw the big rocks as fast as a bullet shoots, there's was that one bird during the mage exams that was supersonic and it was treated as unreasonably fast. Also, the penetration does matter, there's better energy coupling, also what about the pressure, nigga? What's the point of shooting a big boulder at reasonable speeds if only 10% of its total energy gets effectively delivered all spread out into the barrier to damage it?
>.50 BMG can be stopped by wearable chestplates, there's no wearable chestplate that will stop a 50kg boulder going at a few dozen meters per second.
Lol, what the fuck kind of logic is this?
>"Car are actually effective on land and all you need is to learn how to drive it and remember to fuel it, but they're a shit means of locomotion because they just sink in huge bodies of water, this is why it's better to just walk"

Yeah, no shit? The chestplate is specifically made to stop bullets from killing you. On the other hand, if you just shoot a big boulder at a magical barrier at reasonably fast speeds and it breaks, naturally a piece of metal flying at the speed of sound towards it with much better energy coupling and extreme pressure will be much more effective. It'll pierce it, and then hit the mage behind it.
>>
>>284781097
Energy = Mass times velocity^2 divided by 2.
An 8g 9mm bullet at muzzle velocity of 350 m/s has ~ 500J.
That's in the range of a modern javelin or discus throw - so things thrown by a strong man > pistol bullet.

A 100kg sprinter running at 100m in 10s gives 5000 J, so being body slammed by a normal knigth ~ 10 pistol bullets
