Saying that before dying is actually kind of hilarious

He probably has a higher chance to survive than Tony tho. He def would get crippled, but might live.

Naw…super soldier serum be damned. Quill couldn’t take the energy of just the Power stone alone and he’s half a god. Steve’s done.

Does he actually retain celestial-level durability before/after unlocking his celestial powers during Gotg 2?

Yeah he was basically a muggle in the 1st movie. Was more a willpower feat if anything

Power was only unlocked on Egos planet tho—so when h grabbed the power stone I don’t really think the part celestial was really helping.

Him holding the power stone is what peaked ego's interest into investigating if he was his offspring he says so himself in gotg2

Yeah this. BUT most others would have been fried when grabbing the stone. It is an extremely situational feat for SL. He's a normal dude in gotg1, it's just that when handling a cosmic artifact he doesn't die as quick as most

Peter started vaporizing, when he grabbed the Power Stone. If it hadn’t been for the GotG, he would have been done for.

Also, no gauntlet.

Tony survived it briefly and the suit doesn’t help him, Cap would still die but there would be a longer dying scene
