Meh, a hero needs to be inarguably good at their intended goal. Anyone who doesn't already agree with him is going to call him a dumbass, and rightfully so.

Do not appear to be a threat while not actually being a threat. Period. It's almost as bad as being in danger while having zero defense.

You wouldn't celebrate someone taking a walk in the woods with an empty bear mace can. This guy is doing the same thing: Going in to danger against wild animals with no actual defense.
