What do you mean by "potential"?

Nephthys
Vivicar. If he had succeeded in siphoning the power from the whole Jedi Order I imagine he'd be insanely powerful.

Freedon Nadd
What do people refer to potential?
Natural Force strength, 'artificial' Force strength(taken from draining Force energy)?

ILS
In this thread we're talking about the potential to acquire power and/or do significant/great things related to the Force.

Freedon Nadd
By acquire power you mean acquire Force abilities or increase your power by consuming Force energy? Or both?

ILS
The examples in the OP should make it clear that I'm not asking for specifics.

Darth Thor
Maul being strong in the Force and Son of Mother Talzin means he potentially could have trained in both arts and been a powerful Dark Side and Magic practitioner.

Freedon Nadd
So, a Force-user increases their Force strength via knowledge? I always thought Force-users have a specific Force strength and don't deviate from it(unless they steal it from others; e.g: Vitiate)

Malak with the star forge, he would of grown to Novel Vitiate level plus.

Azronger
No, I don't think anyone else had as grand plans or potential as those mentioned in the OP.

Since when does the Star Forge amplify your power in the Force?

Isn't it just a machine that feeds on the dark side to create robots and can heal darksiders? Isn't that the reason why Darth Revan wasn't willing to use it in the first place?

Nephthys
Taalon? Dude was on his way to becoming a One.

ILS
He's a good one. Also Galen Marek/Starkiller had stupidly high Force potential, enough to be one of the most powerful Force users ever, and comparing favourably to Vader as teenagers.

Ursumeles
Anakin Solo, maybe. He was on his way to become the next Luke, and was pretty popular iirc.

Well if we consider members of the Skywalker lineage, then Luke and Anakin Solo and arguably Allana are the ones with the most potential aside from Anakin Skywalker.

Kyp Durron and Maul are also worthy mentions.

Rockydonovang
Marek, Starkiller, Kyp, Ahsoka, Yaddle, Anakin solo, Ben Skywalker, Jaina, Revan, Windu, Ulic, Maul, and Toa(basically galen marek again)

Geistalt
Ben Skywalker and Vestara Khai could've replaced the Daughter and the Son. But, then again, anyone could have via the Font.

Zentrex
Jerec was pretty close to becoming quasi-omnipotent near the Valley of the Jedi. Jacen became comepletely one with the Force in his battle with Onimi, Mother Talzin when she almost used that Ritual on Bardotta to become as powerful as TCW Sidious, and pretty much all of the Celestials, since they could all become Ones.
Although, it IS unclear how that works, since the Father, supposedly born 999,000 years before the golden age of the Celestials, was far more powerful than the Son and the Daughter, who were born even less powerful before the whole pool of knowledge and font of power incident. And the Father was the only celestial (as far as we know) to ever reach Force Wielder level power. And Abeloth was even less than a celestial, but then became more powerful than the Son and the Daughter combined after using both the font and the pool.

Unbowed
Assuming Qu Rahn's statements were not hyperbole, Jerec - or any one that could master the Valley of the Jedi - would be #1. By far.

After that comes Plagueis.

The rest I find overrated.

Zentrex
What we get from Qu Rahn is that Jerec could have become a star-system level threat with just a thought or a whisper. Considering there are billions of star systems in the galaxy, he would have to output as much energy as billions of thoughts require in order to destroy the galaxy the way Vitiate almost did. And so, it stacks up to the point where he wouldn't be the kind of threat that the galaxy hadn't seen before. And The Terror From Beyond was also a galaxy-level threat, if left lose for long enough. I wouldn't say that Jerec, even if he'd succeeded wouldn't be that much more powerful than certain force entities like the Wutzek.

SunRazer
Leia could've been another Luke if she was subjected to the same training and practice.

LordOfTheLight
Surprised nobody mentioned Obi Wan. Then again, not really.

LordOfTheLight
More surprising is that nobody mentioned Mace.
