<p>This can be answered from the information in the bonus chapter, <em>Threat Level</em>, in <strong>Volume 15</strong>.</p>

<p>The threat level and hero rank comparison shown in the chapter are:</p>

<ul>
<li>Wolf Level - needs 3 Class-C heroes or 1 Class-B hero</li>
<li>Tiger Level - needs 5 Class-B heroes or 1 Class-A hero</li>
<li>Demon Level - needs 10 Class-A heroes or 1 Class-S hero</li>
</ul>

<p>Disaster or threat levels above demon (dragon and god) were never compared but based on the events in the manga, this might require multiple Class-S heroes, depending on the ability or capability of both the monster and the hero facing it.</p>

<hr>

<p>There are different threat levels decided upon by the Hero Association. The decision on the threat level depends on </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>factors such as strength, aggressiveness, and the estimated difficulty in defeating [the monster].</p>
</blockquote>

<p>It was also noted in the same chapter that </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>hero ranks are an imperfect representation of combat ability due to inconsistent factors like battleground conditions and monster compatibility.</p>

This can be answered from the information in the bonus chapter, *Threat Level*, in **Volume 15**.

The threat level and hero rank comparison shown in the chapter are:

* Wolf Level - needs 3 Class-C heroes or 1 Class-B hero
* Tiger Level - needs 5 Class-B heroes or 1 Class-A hero
* Demon Level - needs 10 Class-A heroes or 1 Class-S hero

Disaster or threat levels above demon (dragon and god) were never compared but based on the events in the manga, this might require multiple Class-S heroes, depending on the ability or capability of both the monster and the hero facing it.

This class of heroes was originally created to include characters who can defeat **Demon level threats** on their own. That said, some of the **high ranked S class heroes such as Tatsumaki** are capable of fighting **Dragon level Threats** by themselves or with the assistance of other S class heroes. Another good example is **Elder Centipede who is a Dragon Level threat** and was defeated by **Blast, the first ranked S class hero**.
