Limits

"Sylar claimed that this spot was microscopic, requiring one to either be a good shot or have intimate knowledge of where it's located. He also claimed that this spot could be moved, apparently doing so to avoid death by Danko by knife, when hit where the spot should have been. (I Am Sylar)"

Sylar can only move the spot because of his shape shifting ability.

Suffocation

Adam was able to live in the grave, dying only periodically (presumably every time he suffocates). But, if he breathed all the oxygen in the grave and then sufffocated, there would be no oxygen for him to use when he regenerated, so he would stay dead until exposed to more oxygen. Am I right?--Boycool42 15:01, 21 March 2010 (EDT)

  • I think it's more he breathes in all the oxygen and suffocates. Then when he regenerates, he just goes straight into the suffocating stage again. --mc_hammark 15:09, 21 March 2010 (EDT)
    • So..what, he dies like every three minutes?--Boycool42 15:12, 21 March 2010 (EDT)

Delay

Second time we have seen a delay in this ability, that it didn't kick in straight away. The first when Sylar cut opened the top of Clair's head and she put it back on. The second was when Samuel detached Sylar's face and fainted, we didn't see the ability receive him or any skin being created.--50000JH 12:55, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

  • Third time actually, In Turn and Face the Strange Sylar is shot by Noah but doesn't heal straight away. Also, no offence but whats your point? --Leckie -- Talk 13:17, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
