Setting: The Invisible Hand during the battle above Coruscant.
Darth Tyranus is suprised to find instead of Anakin and Obi-Wan arriving to rescue the Chancellor, it's Jedi Master Arca Jeth and Ulic Qel-Droma, instead.
Jeth and Qel-Droma intend to attack Dooku together, and they do so.
Dooku for all of them. Its only close in the sabers, because Ulic is pretty frickin' haxxed. Arca Jeth might as well not be here. Dude died like a punk.

Ulic, without the Force, was able to withstand a vengeful onslaught from Sylvar at a severe disadvantage. I lost the comic scans I had for it on my old hard drive, but I distinctly recall Sylvar getting frustrated because she could not kill him. Add to that the fact that he was Kun's equal and it stands to reason he would be a handful for Dooku on his own.
I'm not terribly familiar with Arca Jeth's character, so I looked him up in ze Jedi Academy Taining Manual:
"Master Jeth is humble in victory and introspective in defeat. He is a master strategist who is well versed in lightsaber combat, but he rarely fights in duels." -- JATM, pg. 96.
"His mastery of the ability [battle meditation] grows with each use, but he is not foolish enough to think himself invincible. Just as lightsaber combat has evolved over the centuries, Arca Jeth knows there will be others who will build upon his knowledge, someday bringing entire fleets together as one."
Interesting.

Which makes sense. In general, the more you learn, the more you can progress in a particular area. Don't see why knowledge of the force, and/or skill with a lightsaber would be any different.
...Unless one were of the opinion that the aforementioned are unrefineable..?

Except that in Star Wars a great deal of knowledge is lost every few generations due to the constant fighting of the setting. The great library at Ossus was completely obliterated. Mlachor was too. Dark Side teachings and workings were actively destroyed by the Jedi. Palpatine purged the Jedi and gathered and hid their knowledge. Holocrons are actively destroyed, hidden or lost. Masters are killed before passing on their knowledge.
But when someone like Palpatine is referred to as 'the most powerful Sith Lord who has ever lived' (or something along those lines), should we not take that as a reference to him being more powerful than the Sith of old lore, iyo?
