User:Rocco is a gamer/JoJo Durability Explanation

Pretty simple blog, basically throughout Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency it's consistently shown that Zombies, Vampires, and Pillar Men's Durability is drastically lower than what their Attack Potency is.

Vampires

• A Vampire from the beginning of P1 broke its hand by breaking a wall with Dio stating its body can't handle its own power.

• A Vampire destroyed their own arms while on a rampage.

• A vampiric Dio straight up gets harmed by a regular person.

• Jonathan was able to harm Dio despite his Hamon not connecting. Its explained that Hamon is able to destroy things as it travels through the object so the argument of Jonathan was still amped by the Hamon doesn't work.

• Dio was able to casually cut his own head off.

• Joseph was able to draw blood from Straizo despite his Hamon not connecting.

• DIO is able to slit his own wrist.

• High DIO is able to scratch off his own skin, and can even poke his finger through his head.

Zombies

• Without Hamon, Jonathan was able to harm a Zombie by smashing its head with a spear.

• Speedwagon was able to smash a Zombie’s head with a sledgehammer.

• Tarkus broke all of his bones by falling through a wall despite weaker Zombies like Jack the Ripper being able to preform far more destructive feats

Pillar Men

• Santana is able to fracture his own bones.

• Wamuu was able to draw blood from Kars with a single kick despite Kars being stated to be superior to Wamuu in power.

• Esidisi is able to rip his hand in half and rip off his nails.
