As well, being so large and powerful, one attack would likely put any member of team RWBY out of commission, since they're basically bigger than smaller iterations of Godzilla, and the size alone means if a single attack doesn't kill any member of the team, I'm calling utter BS. As well, they're likely extremely intelligent, due to having hundreds of years of experience. They'll know that they won't be fast enough to keep up with the little Huntresses, but would also know their strength will overwhelm them with a single strike. And it took dragging a Nevermore up a cliff using Glyph-assisted speed to chop its head off. A Nevermore, with a Goliath being unquestionably more powerful. quoting myself "I don't think all Goliaths are centuries old, just that particular herd." that is the only place I ever meant that particular herd, I just don't see the goliaths being that much more powerful as a base species(if species even fits) my point was(and always has been) that Oobleck knew at that moment they(just himself and a somewhat tired Ruby) did not have the firepower to take on that herd of 5-7, and furthermore that they didn't need to, and yang was stated to be immune to kinetic damage, so unless it fires lasers from it's eyeball's or gores her, I think she could take the first hit(at which point she could probably crack it's armor).

if I were to guess at their power levels(in a 1-100 range) I would wager a base adult goliath close to level 30(with immature goliaths closer to level 20, that particular herd levels 40-60), while Nevermores range from 1(those really small ones in the building)-80(nothing this powerful would go close to a city unless it was burning) and while each member of RWBY I would place between 5-10(closer to 5), as a team I would place them at 30(when their teamwork is slightly off)-50(if they had perfect teamwork). for examples of enemies they fought I would place the players and pieces nevermore at around 35-40, and the deathstalker at 35-45(it was likely a powerful one of it's race) and the mech Torchwick used would likely be a level 20-25 booster.
