I was joking, though he did take down two Gelumcaedus without them latching onto his vambrace, who are an awfully powerful species - literally "Cold-blooded Killer" without the mistranslation. He subdued a Hollentier - literally "Beast from Hell".

Under the influence of the toxin, he managed to survive a planecrash, clamber out of the burning debris, absolutely annihilate a bar full of people who came at him together (some were big, armed men), run miles through a forest and effortlessly knock down a door with a bookshelf behind it.

And lets not forget he crashed through a barn floor, got hit by a shovel and a huge wooden plank, and still gained the upper hand against a Blutbad, a half-Zauberbiest, and Hank (who could take down a toxin-influenced person in two seconds flat as shown here ) combined.

Aside from physical strength, he can hold his breath for an alarming period of time, his heart rate hardly ever increases, and he can hear and sense things from some distance away.

Believe me, it's satisfying to watch our Nicky absolutely destroy the evil Wesen, as well as witness the strength of a Grimm.

And it's super that this is how he's developing now, truly the creature that Wesen children are afraid of at night, but a character without flaws is static.

Now, Nick is gloriously flawed and very human. He is fiercely loyal and hesitates to murder even Wesen criminals (though he certainly likes throwing punches). But I merely feel that he's changed a lot and veering away from that path, physically and emotionally.

I apologise for the interminable ramble; notify me if this breaks the rules of the forums. I don't mean to come across harsh, and I doubt that you did too. It's always lovely to have a discussion on the characters, and I just thought that this needed saying.
