Does Piccolo have to be near super saiyan level strength? could he be possible near goku and vegetas base strength?

Gero was unable to fully tank Goku's punch.

Vegeta knocked 19 away easily and then pretty much fully tanked 19's punch.

also both, Vegeta and Goku had a pretty big lead over piccolo before they started training. Why does he get super magic gains when it wasn't even plot required?

SSJ Goku: 100
SSJ Vegeta: 110

Give or take.

I remembered it wrong. Vegeta totally does not take punch before he goes ssj. Whoops.

Piccolo was still a relevant cast member at this time. In fact, his importance was arguably greater than Trunks's during the Android arc since he actually fought and damaged one of the cyborgs. He was Goku's primary backup when first encountering #19 and #20. Plus, when Goku was incapacitated, the Z warriors looked to Piccolo as the defacto leader of the group instead of Vegeta. I would certainly say that his presence carried weight.

Humongous power gains are nothing new for non-Saiyan cast members. The humans went from being inferior to Kami to easily disposing of Raditz-tier opponents using the same training methods that barely put Goku above 300 back in Dragonball. Just imagine how much benefit training with a Super Saiyan would give someone. Piccolo definitely knew. Hell! I could see Krillin and Yamcha pushing upwards to the tens of millions if they had taken Goku up on his offer to train with him, Gohan, and Piccolo.

Back to the question - I have Piccolo somewhere between 60-70% of SSJ Vegeta at this. So if for example Vegeta were at 300,000,000 against the cyborgs, Piccolo would rank at 180-210,000,000.

If Trunks is a step below Vegeta and Piccolo is a step below Trunks, does Piccolo at 60% truly fit?

I don't see why not. The gap between Piccolo and Vegeta is pretty sizable. Trunks could be anywhere from 70-80% of his father and still be superior to Piccolo. I'm leaning more towards Piccolo being 60% of Vegeta and Trunks being at 70% as AvatarReiko put it.

Trunks should be closer to Vegeta than Piccolo is to Trunks.

I personally go Vegeta 10, Goku a 9, Trunks a 8, Piccolo a 7.5.

In the manga piccolo and Gohan spend their time training vs ssj Goku unlike in the anime.

It still allows Gohan to be a 5.5, Krilin a 5, Tien a 3, and Yamcha a 2 with Chaozu a 0.5

Piccolo should've been given more respect with the way some of you are propping him up.

Why? Being 80% of Vegeta is essentially being fodder to him. Why would he be shown respect?

For real.

Wherever Piccolo is, there is no need for him to be "respected". Goku trained with him during he gap, he already knows what Piccolo is capable of. Vegeta doesn't respect anyone but himself at that point in time. Why would they respect him?

Vegeta won't acknowledge anyone who's weaker than him, excepting Saiyans.

Chapter: 383 (DBZ 189), P3.1
Context: after Cell defeats Kuririn
Vegeta: “Are you happy to harass a piece of garbage like that? Just like I thought, even after reaching your perfect form you still don’t seem like anything special.”

I doubt he can be much more than 10% over initial Perfect Cell.
I love building PCs. If you have any questions about it feel free to ask. I can help you with almost any kind of PC you'd want to build.
