POWERS OF AMAZONS:

When Diana loses her powers during the Simonson era (189-194), we can see through her actions what "regular" Amazons can do:

Without her powers and memory and with the abilities of "only" an Amazon, she proves herself a cunning and powerful warrior, able to fend off a small army of demons. She hurls a sword a fair distance to skewer one of the demons. She leaps high up into a tree, though she cannot fly. With only an Amazon's powers, Diana easily lifts a stone column and then rams what appears to be a sixteen-foot tree trunk through one of the monster Scylla's heads. Diana goes toe-to-toe with the goddess Diana and manages to keep up with her.

We discover that Amazons without powers can be defeated by bashing them in the head with a cast-iron pan and then tying their wrists with duct tape (192), as Diana was by the possessed Vivian, sister of Trevor Barnes.
