Good point. Who knows how the duel would have turned out if Revan fought smart and used his blade to deflect Vitiate's lightning again.

Like that time when the entire jedi strike team used their sabers against Vitiate's FLS?

True. Shame none of them are on Revan's level. Otherwise Vitiate may very well have been dead there.

Vitiate's FLS in SWTOR wasn't charged or concentrated like it was in the novel. Perhaps Revan could hold his ground like Braga and HoT did against an FLS like that but against a concentrated attack? I don't think so.

Eh, good enough. Still not really evidence of any considerable increase in martial prowess.

2) I agree that they are superior but not by a margin. First of all, team Revan had an advantage. Because of Revan, they were able to resist Vitiate's mind attacks. They also have the advantage in numbers. Kun and his former apprentice won't be taken out as easily as Revan and Malak but I still don't think they can take the Emperor down.


I'd agree, but even a slight degree of superiority is enough considering this group was already enough to match Vitiate.

3) Scourge sees incalculable amount of possibilities of the future. It really doesn't mean that they were powerful enough to challenge him. IIRC, the novel kinda states that none of them knew if they actually had a chance or not. It's an unknown matter and using it as an argument doesn't make sense to me tbh.

Is power not an applicable feature in combat?

match Vitiate? So Scourge saw millions of scenarios and in some of them Vitiate was defeated and that proves they were powerful enough to match him?

Vitiate underestimated Revan and put himself in a vulnerable position. Once he used his most powerful attack, Revan was no match for him. And Revan was far above the other two as they were in no position to defend themselves against Nyriss. So if Revan was instantly overwhelmed by Vitiate's lightning, I don't see how the rest of the group could make a difference.


More importantly, Vitiate's mentality changed after that confrontation. He created Voices and was more cautious in general. You can also see this change in SWTOR as he unleashes his potent attacks right away against the strike team instead of fooling around. So in this case, he won't do the same mistake again against Kun and Ulic.

Kun and Qel.

Better suited for Vitiate's best combat attack than the jedi strike team.

3) Yes we do. Scourge sees a vision of the future with Vitiate dead at Revan's feet.


It wasn't Revan, it was HoT

IIRC Vitiate fears Kun alone in power, but he could probably still win a Force-only duel, or lose with tremendous effort on the duo's part.

If the duo get up close then Vitiate gets assassinated like Julius Caesar with 40+ stabs and then gets his throne thrown on top of his corpse.

Why would Vitiate have trouble beating Kun in a force fight? Revan has better showings than Kun in the force and Vitiate makes Revan his b*tch every time they encounter.

Vitiate. SOR Revan duked out against a strike team that was even more powerful than the one sent after Vitiate in the novel, and it's universally acknowledged in the same expansion that Vitiate is infinitely stronger than Revan, or anyone. Whether or not it's directly stated, Vitiate is obviously being displayed as far more powerful in recent SWTOR updates than during the novel.

Kun has frozen over 10,000 individuals simultaneously without effort and stomped Vodo whilst doing so. Tanked bombing runs with no visual sign of effort and shrugged off Odan-Urr's Sever Force attack. He is stated to have more knowledge of the Force than Darth Vader and in his time as Dark Lord of the Sith been the most powerful in the galaxy and was darker than any other Sith of the time. He has been stated to be far more powerful than Thon, Jeth, Odan and all other Jedi of the day.

Not seeing where Revan is more powerful in the Force.

Emperor Vitiate have no limitation in the matter of power progression. Using sorcery and powers, Emperor Vitiate continuously grew in power since his birth to the point when he was ready to initiate a ritual of galactic proportions. Further power progression had been interrupted when Emperor Vitiate's ultimate ritual was stopped by his enemies; Emperor was actually weakened by this development and had been recovering since, and the story is in progress.

It is impossible to establish that Ulic is on Nyriss level, based on available information.

This was 'among' the possibilities but not a definite outcome.

Swtore. It says his power was "ever increasing" as he fed on his Servants (and Revan).
