How high do you think Goku could take the Kaioken multiplier from his buu saga base form?

KAAIIOOOKEEN.......... TIMES ZERO!!! goku hasn't practiced the technique in over a decade. he can't even use it anymore.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

I think that maybe instead of kaioken he just turns SSJ instead. In other words even if he wanted to use Kaioken, he'd just transform instead. A bit like Gohan activating his ultimate form.

He can probably do KK*20 well enough now, probably as even as high as SSJ, but kk's no longer needed; the ssj state alters the body enough (mass, denser muscles) to maintain the high power output.

Doesnt matter if he would use it. Considering his power at this point, how high is the muliplier?

I have two theories;

1. He would be able to use KK x20 and completely dominated
2. The Kaioken suffered a massive multiplier downgrade just like the SSJ transformation.

@Lunar: How do you KNOW he can't? Maybe he just doesn't because there isn't any need to. It seems like something you wouldn't forget, like riding a bike.

Personally, I think he would be able to do like KKx20 like the others are saying.

I guess Kaioken x20, although he had a hard time using that last time and was never shown to master it. I think he could do Kaioken x10 easily though.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Yeah probably just the 20

Although his body would be used to having way more power than that so maybe not it would probably do more harm than good going past 20 though
I still don't get why Krillin and the others never learnt it they could have been good imagine they had that against the androids and Cell

My theory is the Toriyama decided to phase out Kaioken.

Can't really think of anything else.

Yeah, AT most likely just dropped Kaioken after SSJ was reached (all like 'oopsies I got carried away') due to the multiplier being so ludicrously high it would kill any sort of conflict/tension which in turn kills the story. Either that or the only character who could possibly stand up to any subsequent threat would be Goku :o What would it be? A x1000 base multiplier for SSJ1? oh-ho-ho-ho, Vegeta is ready to commit suicide. There, there.

the reason i know he can't is because the kaioken requires perfection. to use the kaioken without potentially killing yourself, you have to have perfect control of a technique. goku hasn't used the kaioken in over 12 years. therefore, there is absolutely no way he has perfect control over the technique, so even a basic kaioken could kill him. the kaioken, because of the risks involved, could only practically be learned while dead, and the skill must be maintained, or it becomes too dangerous to use. if goku tries so much as a basic kaioken, he'd be on a quick trip back to king kais for a long class in "Why You Shouldn't Use Techniques You Are Rusty With".

I believe he can use kaioken to a sufficiently high level, especially after Cell Saga RoSaT, but there's really no purpose for using it after attain SSJ states; SSJs are just more efficient for maintaining the increase in power.

Base body max is base body max; the super saiyan body is just better. Even if Goku is used to fighting, and even living, as SSJ, his normal state body is not.

So assume that Goku uses Kaioken * 50:

  • his normal body is outputting 50 times as much as it's supposed; his ssj body's purpose is to output that much.
  • SSJ body is going to sustain 50 * power a lot longer than Goku's normal body is.
SSJ is better.

He doesn't use the Kaio-Ken technique anymore because he can turn SSJ,which puts less strain on his body but gives him more power.Goku used Super Kaioken(Super Saiyan Kaioken) agianst Pikkon in Other World Tournament.That measures up to 100x Kaioken,maybe more.It was quite powerful(he slammed Pikkon into the nearby Moon),but put too much strain on his body.He realised it and didn't used it afterwards.That's my theory.Imagine what strain it would put on his body if he went Kaio-Ken x20 while SSJ3.He would pop like a baloon.
