5.2 Strength

In a supposed re-enactment of historical events, Uxas had apparently killed Yuga Khan, his father by stabbing a scythe blade through his back.

Green Lantern / New Gods : Godhead #1

After the battle, Darkseid would travel throughout the DC Multiverse looking to conquer and destroy worlds in his conquest to obtain the Anti-Life Equation.

5.4 Immortality, Durability, Energy Projection (Multi-Galaxy)

The battle between Highfather Izaya and Uxas as Darkseid resulted in the destruction of the planet of Old Genesis. This is often misinterpreted as a simple planetary explosion however the size of Old Genesis dwarfs that of galaxies -> 3.2 but the explosion is likely to be even larger -> 3.3

Justice League Vol 2 #23.1

The Darkseid that fought the Justice League is an avatar as he is seen perfectly fine after the surviving the collapse of the Boom Tube. It is also revealed that Darkseid has been killing various Supermen across the DC Multiverse and showcasing his kills as trophies.

Justice League Vol 2 #23.1

10.9 Strength (Star), Speed, Durability (Star), Healing Factor

Still weakened after emerging from a regenerative slumber, Darkseid faces off against Batman wearing the Hell-Bat armor in a intense fight. He is able to tank some blows and dish out some of his own. Despite being in a weakened state, Darkseid is able to overpower the Hell-Bat easily and cause significant damage to it.

Batman and Robin Vol 2 #37

The pieces of the Hell-Bat armor are extremely durable as they were forged in multiple extreme environments including the heat and gravity within the core of the Sun, the rigors of the Speed Force, the crushing pressures of deep oceanic depths and the magic forge of the Amazons.

Batman and Robin Vol 2 #33
Batman and Robin Vol 2 #33

The Hell-Bat is strong and tough enough to stomp an army of Parademons and transverse all across Apokolips in a matter of seconds.

Batman and Robin Vol 2 #36

The Hell-Bat could also defeat Kalibak soundly.

Batman and Robin Vol 2 #36

This shows that a weakened Darkseid is far superior to Kalibak and Parademons. Here is confirmation that Darkseid was weakened.

Batman and Robin Vol 2 #35
Batman and Robin Vol 2 #35

Earth 2 : World's End #11

10.14 Telepathy (Multiversal), Cosmic Awareness (Multiversal)

Uses his telepathy to scan for and track down John Constantine throughout the DC Multiverse. He also mentally messes around with the minds of the people.

Constantine #22

10.15 Power Negation, Telepathy, Portal Creation, Teleportation, Dimensional Travel, Size Alteration (Star), Strength, Reality Warping (Universal), Space Manipulation, Time Manipulation, Gravity Manipulation (Star), Life Force Drain, Energy Consumption, Cosmic Awareness (Multiversal)

Whilst fleeing from Darkseid, John Constantine is trapped on Earth-2 where finds himself powerless to stop the Dark Lord who pushes himself through the universal barriers. Instead he resorts to using an illusion to fool Darkseid rather than flat out engage him in combat. There is a lot of feats to unpack in his sequence such as Darkseid growing to a size where the gravity of his presence acts like a Black Hole plus John Constantine stating that he witnessed Darkseid destroying and consuming universes which Darkseid himself later confirmed.

Constantine #22-23

John Constantine is strong enough to hold a being as powerful as the Phantom Stranger against his will and even send him away against his will.

Trinity of Sin : The Phantom Stranger #4

The Phantom Stranger is capable of fighting the Spectre on even footing such that the Presence himself had to intervene and warn them to stop otherwise they could destroy creation as a side effect of their petty dispute.

Trinity of Sin : The Phantom Stranger #5

John Constantine who can trap Spectre level beings was not to be able to do anything to Darkseid even though he had time to prepare and he knew Darkseid was coming after him plus he was already warned beforehand by Doctor Fate of the consequences. This is proof that Darkseid scales above Spectre-level beings.

Constantine #21
Constantine #21

Earth 2 : World's End #26

Alan Scott had previously absorbed all the other Elemental Avatars to become the Parliament.

Earth 2 : World's End #26

Alan Scott even later admits he feels the truth power and potential of the DC Multiverse. Even the most egregious lowballing puts this feat at multi-planetary even though it is a concentrated multiversal punch that Darkseid was able to tank.

Earth 2 : World's End #26

Justice League Vol 2 #44

Justice League Vol 2 #44
