Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius
Before the main story even began, Peter Parker has shown that his intellect exceeded normalstandards. At the mere age of 15 after getting his powers, he developed his signature web-shooters. As a sophomore, his aptitude for science help him win awards like the Fisk Science Prize. He also developed "Spider-Tracers" to track his foes. Created his own cell phone from parts he found dumpster diving. Developed insulators in his suit for his future battles against Electro, and created a jammer to disrupt Vulture's wings. Academically brilliant, he also gained a Bachelor of Science degree in Biophysics at Empire State University, with his A-graded thesis of neurotechnology. And while he did get an offer at Oscorp with a high salary, he chose to work at Octavius Industries. Over the course of the story, Peter has shown expertise in many STEM related fields. Examples include applied science, chemistry, biology, engineering, mathematics, physics, and mechanics. His skills is so impressive he can do calculus and physics equations in his head to make sure he swings correctly. He later developed many different devices and suits to help him against his villains such as the suspension matrix, concussive blast, numerous of web related gadgets, and the Anti-Ock suit. Otto Octavius himself even acknowledges Peter's intelligence and states that Peter has a talent for guerilla science like none other. Prime examples of this include synthesizing a counter-drug to Tombstone's invulnerability in an incredibly short amount of time, using only the lab supplies found in the back of a truck and being able to quickly make an antidote to Scorpion's toxin after being hit by it. Peter is also a formidable and proficient hacker as shown as he was able to hack into Fisk's console in the server room to obtain evidence to put Fisk into jail. Peter's also notable for his impressive skills in intelligence gathering and data interpretation, being able to pick up on patterns others do not notice, examples include by how he had to sometimes correct flaws in the mechanical appendages designed by Otto. Other examples include his work with the Oscorp research stations made by Harry all over the city, developing new ideas to solve problems that was presented in said stations.
Has defeated and outsmarted many foes with gifted intelligence such as the Vulture and Shocker. Even in his early career as a superhero, Wilson Fisk, a formidable strategist considered him a threat. After 8 years of crime fighting, Spider-Man is a highly accomplished and versatile hand-to-hand combatant. He is easily capable of doing numerous professional wrestling moves. Many specific lucha libre maneuvers have been noted in his fights, such as dropsaults, headscissors takedowns, reverse frankensteiners, and the famous hurricanrana. Casually took down entire units and camps of agents for Sable International, a mercenary-security organization that even in its early stages, was comprised of trained and hardened soldiers with highly respectable technology and battle tactics. His combat skills are so impressive, he's fought and defeated skilled combatants such as Wilson Fisk and Tombstone, fought evenly against extraordinary martial artists like Silver Sable, and was even able to accomplish all the combat challenges and defeat (while holding back) the mercenary Taskmaster who possesses a "photo-reflexive memory", allowing him to observe, assess and then instantly replicate his target's combat maneuvers as well as develop his own countermeasures against them through anticipating their movements and at the time had already fully studied and analyzed Spider-Man's moves during their final fight. It's also important to acknowledge that Peter is largely self taught in combat, having learned many of his fighting techniques from watching movies. By the eighth year of his crime-fighting career, he possesses an masterful understanding of his abilities such that he managed to train his partner Miles in combat, traversal, and stealth challenges he set up for him across the city while he was away with several holo-drones, which are humanoids manifested through hard light that are proficient in the use of martial arts, melee weaponry, and firearms, and analyze hostile combat tactics in battle
Weaknesses: Spider-Man's various suit powers either have a limited duration or can only be used once before they must recharge. The Spider Armor-MK III suit cannot reflect sniper rounds. When using the Undies Suit's One-Hit Kill ability, Spider-Man can also die in a single blow. Spider-Sense can't detect enemies if their are invisible and they aren't attacking him[12]. | The symbiote suit is weak to sound based attacks, however this weakness is removed once Peter acquires the Anti-Venom suit.
Notable Attack/Techniques:
- Spider-Sense: Thanks to his Spider-Sense, Peter can be warned of incoming danger and attacks before they occur.[1][2] This ability is especially useful in preventing himself and others from being harmed.[1][2] Regarding combat, his Spider-Sense's warnings will differentiate between attacks that need to be blocked or dodged when the other option would not work.[2]
- Web-Shooters: Spider-Man's iconic and main gadget. Mounted on each wrist, Spider-Man can use them to create web lines to maneuver around or interact with his environment. Capable of rapid firing shots of webbing to ensnare enemies.
- Impact Web: This gadget fires out a more intense projectile of webbing than the standard Web-Shooters. The Impact Web's effect is comparable to multiple shots from the Web-Shooters and has a more powerful knockback when hitting enemies. Hence, a single shoot can fully bind a target to the wall or ground. Also, should an affected target collide with another, it will also ensnare and bind them as well.
- Spider-Drone: A small, multi-limb drone. Spider-Man can deploy them to aid him in combat. The drone provides support with a small energy blaster that is used to attack and stun enemies. It can also be used for reconnaissance due to its small size and the ability for Spider-Man to see through its eyes.
- Electric Web: This modification provides a small electric charge to each of Spider-Man web shots before they fire. This can be used to power certain electronic conduits. When used on enemies, it will temporarily stun them with the electricity arcing to other enemies near, stunning them as well.
- Web Bomb: A proximity-triggered explosive that instantly ensnares all enemies in detonation range with webbing. Can be stuck to walls or objects.
- Trip Mines: A small device that can be attached to walls or even an enemy. Once it detects an enemy, it hits them with a web line and slams them into whatever it was originally attached to, binding them to it with webbing.
- Concussive Blast: This gadget emits a powerful sonic wave in front of Spider-Man, causing nearby enemies to be blown backwards with great force.
- Suspension Matrix: When deployed, this device emits a gravity field that leaves enemies suspended in the air and vulnerable
