Sinious
Both characters are exceptionally gifted with telekinesis.

Who will prevail and who will get ragdolled?

DarthAnt66
Revan

Sinious
No one else?

S_W_LeGenD
Based on latest disclosure, Revan would prevail.

Marco1907
Revan, unfortunately.

And RotJ Vader didn't become stronger in the force, more skilled maybe. He had already become a TK beast right after his suit.

Sinious
Its both characters in their peaks so ROTJ fits.

Can anyone list Revan's major TK feats?

Without game mechanics, collapsing a building I guess, according to Darthant's respect thread.

Karpyshyn said he could theoretically collapse a building as/of the Revan novel, yeah.

S_W_LeGenD
Not just a building, a skyscraper.

No, buddy. A building.

"And, if the situation was right he might be able to collapse a building; it would really depend on his state of mind and the circumstances."

I am the person who originally had a conversation with Mr. Drew about this matter and I mentioned a large building in my query, if I recall correctly. The author understood what I am asking and responded in kind.

If this is not good enough, I can ask him again.

S_W_LeGenD
Collapsing a building requires destruction of its foundations. Height doesn't matters if the foundation crumbles.

Marco1907
Skyscraper shouldn't even count as a building. A castle or a palace maybe.

Skyscraper is a large building.

They did that front of two Jedi master, with breaking their force shield. So... And I am not talking about one specific occasion either.

Vader's got better feats, but I like to think Revan is more powerful, however slight.

Revan's feat of ragdolling Satele Shan and company is superior to any feat of Vader in combative situation, and by a big margin.

Hardly. Now, had he effortlessly pinned them a la Sidious/Maul/Savage, that'd be one thing. But Vader's got Revan beat by feats, not to mention going toe-to-toe with Starkiller and his clone, who arguably have the best TK feats in the mythos.

WildBantha88
Plus Revans new feat is kind of far outside of what the character has been shown being able to do. It likely he was amped

Or if not more powerful than Vader in the strictest sense, certainly the more effective warrior.

Watch this:

This is effortless rag-dolling of some of the most powerful Force-users of the mythos.

And I am surprised that you lump Satele Shan with the likes of Darth Maul and Opress Savage, she is considerably better then both.

Vader no longer outclasses Revan in feats. In-fact, I recall Starkiller rag-dolling Vader around after injuring him by throwing an explosive towards him. Starkiller's feat of manipulating the movement of an already falling Imperial Star Destroyer remains unparalleled because no one else even bothered to attempt such a thing in galactic history with exception of Tulak Hord. The latter pulled down a large starship from space into the ground with his raw power according to Khem Val.

Hardly.

Revan's quick dismissal of Darth Nyriss is another feat which revealed the true extent of his insane power.

Regarding the feats, Revan kinda reached Vader with the expansion don't you think?

I've already explained this to Ant: that's an in-game mechanic and, unless it's in a cutscene, it's never been considered valid. I'd probably even be open to a quicktime event. But gameplay isn't valid.

She's... really not.

Sure. After a lengthy duel of attrition in which Vader was exhausted and overwhelmed.

Proof that no one but Hord and Starkiller attempted it?

And when Khem Val can show me a cutscene of it happening, I'll believe it. 'Til then, I don't.

Besides which, that's not even close to Starkiller's best feat.

As an overall combatant? He's definitely on par at least. As a telekinetic? No, Vader still has him on feats.

I haven't played this expansion yet so I will leave this matter to DarthAnt66. However, I do understand from experience that some actions during the fights in SWTOR are scripted and they don't necessarily happen in cut-scenes like in KoTOR I.

SWTOR is different in its presentation of scripted events then KoTOR I. This can confuse some people.

Originally posted by The_Tempest

She is.

Here are some of her feats:-

- Unleashed an esoteric power which simultaneously launched 3 Sith warriors up in the air and eliminated them.

- Held Darth Malgus at bay with one hand and used the other to pull down a gigantic tree even though she was under pressure from the powerful Sith Lord. Trees of that size weigh hundred tons or more.

- Absorbed lightsaber blade with bare hands and then proceeded to dominate Darth Malgus with her powers with which she also disintegrated an enormous rocky formation as a side effect.

- Disintegrated a blastdoor with a simple touch.

- Blew apart a dozen hex droids with a single gesture, these droids are tougher then most in the mythos.

And officially stated to have prodigious powers.

Satele Shan is definitely superior to Darth Maul and Opress Savage.

Originally posted by The_Tempest

So how exactly is Vader better then Revan when the latter have actual history of dominating powerful adversaries/prodigies?

You provide an example.

Ask BioWare.

But this is the best hint we have so far.

Originally posted by The_Tempest

Starkiller didn't bring down the Star Destroyer with his power, he just titled it to some extent to shift its direction. The starship was falling on its own.

I meant in TK. Overall like you, I've always considered them as equals. However, with the expansion I think a replacement is necessary.

Intrepid just crushed Tempest so hard I doubt this from can ever recover.

That's all fine and dandy, but it's still gameplay and it still doesn't count. That's been a universal rule here and elsewhere for the better part of a decade and we don't make grand exceptions to accommodate Ant's boytoy. erm

She's definitely not. Between them, they have better feats and accolades.

Vader's TK feats are better.

I... don't have to? You were the one who made a definitive claim: no one other than Tulak Hord and Starkiller has ever attempted to pull down a Star Destroyer. Not only is that an exceptionally dumb argument to make because you can't possibly prove it, it's also irrelevant. Might as well say that Vitiate definitely can't be stronger than Yoda because Yoda never tried to nom nom the galaxy.

In SWTOR, scripted events are authentic actions and will occur every time during a play-through, they are scripted for a reason and cannot be ignored for consideration. In this manner, BioWare confirms a talent or demonstration of power of a character in SWTOR.

As an example: During confrontation with Revan on The Foundry, Revan always conjures up a protection bubble to protect himself from external attacks before teleporting himself to another location/region, ending the battle in a draw. Revan always conjures up the protection bubble in scripted manner during the play-through before teleporting himself so this development is authentic and cannot be ignored.

Revan have rag-dolled entire Strike Team of powerful Force-users. Show me a comparable example from Vader.

In the comic, Starkiller overloaded an ore canon on the ground that actually split a falling starship in to two.

In the novel, Salvation starship was badly damaged in a space battle. However, Starkiller piloted the starship down towards the planet with such a speed that it began to disintegrate during its descend from the immense pressure until only the fore section of the starship remained containing Starkiller which he blew apart with his raw power before it would hit the area where Juno was present. Very impressive, but too vague to evaluate from the description in the novel.
