Ziost > Yavin 4

Check this out:

Looks like Ziost's a more potent Force nexus than Yavin 4.

Is it possible that it was referring to him possessing Ziost's population and drawing strength from them rather than feeding on the nexus itself?

Then why couldn't he just do so with Yavin 4?



What's the difference between a planet being a stronger dark side nexus and all the individuals on that planet having a greater net connection to the dark side of the Force?

He needed to feed on a population to regain the ability to drain a planet hence why he didn't just drain Ziost instantly.

Ah; good point.



Thought someone was going to leap to "Kun maid Yavin strongur!1."

To which I planned on countering, "Kun's not sharing his Force strength with Lana or Revan, either."

And where that is implied?

He had not fully recovered at that point in time.

Conflict was a source of food to him because it would lead to deaths and Tenebrae could feed on those deaths to recover his strength.

Let me help you:

The man now called Vitiate by those who once served him was not strong enough to usurp all life on Yavin 4 after his reawakening. However, he did gain power enough to flee the jungle moon and survive. Now that he has found in Ziost a suitable target to replenish himself--now that he appears to grow more powerful by the hour--what now? When will his unforgiving depletion of Ziost end? And when it does end, what fate will befall the rest of the galaxy?

Understand the meaning of word replenish?

Restore (a stock or supply) to a former level or condition. (Google)

Ziost was one of the major population bases of the Empire. It was an ideal destination to convert into source of feeding.

Actually, the fact that the only forces on Yavin 4 were all set to wage war should've only made turning them against each other easier.





If you ask me, the (Vitiate-induced) hate plague in the air on Ziost was pretty damn strong, though.

He didn't eat the people on Yavin because he needs to consume a certain amount of life to fuel his immortality.

Implying he could have taken over Yavin 4, had he been strong enough.

But he was evidently strong enough to possess Ziost.

As in, doing the same to Yavin 4 to replenish himself (and he wasn't strong enough).




It is so like KMC to take a perfectly good quote and stand against any use it has for measuring power.

He wasn't strong enough to drain the life from Yavin IV and apparently it didn't have the population necessary to empower him to that point.

Actually, why was Ziost a more suitable target than Dromund Kaas?
