Marka Ragnos quantified?

Not sure how many have seen this but check at 27:00



Luke says he and his entire order or at they very least those present will need their full strength combined to defeat Ragnos if he were resurrected. No real reason to doubt Luke honestly, where would Ragnos fit in your scaling with this revelation? This is 11 ABY Luke in case you guys do not know.

Oh I see, well to stir a debate would either of you say this quote indicates Ragnos>Vader?

Not necessarily. Luke's own word is only so reliable since he doesn't really know Ragnos, and he has a habit for exaggerating threats and underplaying himself too.

But I just remembered that I haven't added this to my Ragnos thread, so I'll do that.

Yeah, but then he did get resurrected, and Jaden defeated him.

Jaden is no pushover, even by that point, but he damn sure wasn't a threat to the entire order.

Even in his prime, Kyle Katarn is still above him by a sliver.

NJO did it again (even tho it's ancient as f-uck).

(please log in to view the image)

I should make a thread why NJO can't be taken seriously.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: inb4 Urs whiteknighting NJO and DC bringing up TFU

The likes of Nyax at least don't get bested by a padawan lol.
But yeah, at least NR is full of hyperbole accolades by Luke, most of which are reconnected.

Edit: DC bringing up TFU in such a debate? Really?

Luke is really modest ain't he? He's this all powerful Jedi, yet he keeps underplaying himself and propping up threats lol. I mean I get Luke, ya don't wanna fall to the darkside but man you don't gotta think so low of yourself all the time.

By that logic, there's "no real reason" to doubt Luke's claim that Kyp > Sidious.

@Thread.

Luke is referring to fully revived Marka Ragnos. That could perhaps translate to him considering A living Ragnos to be a major threat. This makes more sense considering the legends he could have heard from Vodo and Exar, etc.

Jaden never defeated a fully resurrected Ragnos, he defeated Ragnos' Spirit and Avatar, Tavion. So I doubt the quote applies to the Ragnos that got destroyed by a Thirteen year old.

Potential wise? He obviously was, especially during the time period the statement was made.

I wouldn't say Ragnos was resurrected. His spirit was able to manifest itself and possess Tavion sure, but that's not resurrection really, that's normal Sith spirit kind of stuff. So all Jaden did was defeat the weakened spirit of Ragnos, not Ragnos in his full glory.

Yeah, Kyp was originally intended to be the greatest Jedi ever until Lucas story group axed the idea. So, the quote was credible for it's time period.
