Force choking and blasting a Dark Council member mid force lightning comes to mind. Darth Nox's canonical name is Lord Kallig, the Sith Inquisitor.

I'm lazy, give me time stamps. I skimmed the cutscene Yoda provided and didn't find any badass displays of telekinesis.

I imagine he means casually stopping Thanaton's lightsaber and then forcing him to his knees despite him clearly resisting.

No, its in the final confrontation. The video is at the top of the related videos section in Mizukage's link. Kallig switches to pwning with TK at around 1.20.

I'm underwhelmed, to be honest. At least with respect to Dooku's feats. It took the Inquisitor a full ten seconds to bring Thanaton to his knees and while stopping the lightsaber is rare, I'm not sure under what framework I should find it impressive. It's certainly rare, but I don't see how either feat would outclass Dooku.

Well personally I think it demonstrates an utter dominance thats never been seen before. Sure, Yoda can 'kick Ventresses ass' by casually stealing her lightsaber. But I've never seen a powerful Sith Lord be utterly manhandled in that way before whilst actually fighting back. But I agree that in terms of raw power, theres been more devestating displays (Marek for example) and greater lifting feats (Dooku and those pillars). I don't think Kallig demonstrated enough in that scene to own Dooku telekinetically, but imo enough to stop him from engaging him in lightsabers.

But of course, neither you or I have played through the Sith Inquisitor storyline. So who knows what Kallig and Thanaton demonstrate in other scenes.

That's the point. I agree some of it is impressive, but not in a context that involves the good Count.

As far as SWTOR is concerned, I'm currently trying to find where Vitiate is supposedly pwned on Voss.

How powerful is Thanaton alleged to be, by the way?

Found the Voss video. If this is pwned, not impressed. Sure, the Emperor is put on his ass (again) and is mystically bound within the vessel to such an extent that suicide is apparently not an option, but not what I'd expected.

Though there is a reference at 6:10 about the length of the rituals, once again pointing to the accuracy of my assessment of Vitiate.

This?

I guess after being killed here the Emperor gets a new Voice who is promptly killed by the Jedi Knight. Epic Fail.

The Jedi Knight seems to be the most powerful of the classes. Pwning Vitiate on a dark side nexus while exhausted? Who else in the game can compete with that?

You'll have to show examples of Dooku's superiority in the force that would give a better picture of how he's going to handle Nox. Also, the whole Voice thing, again, is an extension of the Emperor's will. Somebody post a picture of Darth Baras' death and listen to the entire thing.

Its unconfirmed that the being the Knight killed was the Voice.

I didn't say Dooku was superior in the Force, I said that "Nox" stopping a lightsaber and taking ten seconds to drop Thanaton doesn't come close to suggesting he's a superior telekineticist than the Count.

The Codex in front of me (which could be errant) says that the Voice's body is a receptacle for the Emperor's power and consciousness and that to have an audience with him/her is to have an audience with the Emperor himself. That seems to go above and beyond other canonical extensions of one's will, a la Palpatine's Hands and Dark Side Adepts.

I'll see what I can find on youtube.

The video where the Warrior walks into the dark council chamber, all up until the death.

Yes, but what part and what about it? I'd rather not watch 15 mins of game footage, son. I won't even do it for ME3, let alone this. :/

I watched it. I assume you mean the part about Baras 'asking the Emperor what to do?' Really I don't know what you think that proves.
