Why is Marcone such a heavy magical hitter?
forumghost:
And yet we constantly get shown how every magic user in the series is better then him.
Early Harry says he's gòod at tracking spells.
Molly -Harry's apprentice with a fraction of the experience- tells us 10 books later that he sucks at it.
Same with Carlos, who is again, far less experienced than Harry, and yet he can pull things apart from the atomic level for no effort, and all Harry has learned to do is explode things bigger.
How about Luccio? We see her from back during her young and reckless days, and she can already do those lazer beams without a focus, whereas in Changes Harry struggles to do one with a focus.
Marcone has apparently zoomed so far past Harry in skill that he can now do something that Harry would struggle to manage after a century of dedicated study (teleportation) and he's been learning for less than a decade, and started with zero magical talent.
Literally every Magic-user in the series has absolutely rocketed past Harry in terms of skills in the past 4-5 books or so. The only thing Harry can do is make a bigger boom.

Or it is not Marcone at all but everything magic is provided by Namshiel

Exactly, Marcone has all the cunning and ambition to make the most of Namshiel's magic, it is very much a partnership made in Hell.

Measure Harry's strength by the bodies of his enemies. He's changed the nature of a Fallen's Shadow, survived death, killed a whole species, forged a bond with the Caretaker of the prison of the Gods, imprisoned a Titan, caused the death of two Faerie Queens and fought and won against three Outsider nobles. Smoke that Carlos. You got you butt handed to you by an Ice Princess.
Dina:
I agree is a thing of efficiency. I suspect that in raw power levels. Harry is still stronger. So I really need him to begin studying and getting better.
