No time?! Are you mad? He was RAISED by palps. We never see him use force lightning but that doesn't mean he CAN'T 😛

yes, Maul was a rookie, Palpy didn't teach him yet. Maul was a duelist, not as knowledgable in the force

While we're at it, what about the Force choke? Did anyone BUT Vader use it in the 6 movies? I don't remember Sidious, Dooku, or Maul doing it...

No. Only Vader.

wtf, nobody knows anything.
Luke force choked the guards at Jabbas palace

That was force choke?confused1

yes, it probably killed them too, or maybe knocked them out.
proves that its not only a darkside power

It was. Look carefully, and you can see the guard putting a hand to his throat and looking like he's struggling to breath.

Maul could use lightning but never did in the movies, AND he was immune to it. In the EU novel when he kills the leader of the Black Sun crime syndicate--his bodyguard was a Dathomir witch and attempted to kill him with Force lightning but he just laughed and then fried her. Remember, that unlike Vader and Dooku, he had been a Sith since infancy and therefore had all Sith abilities and no fiber of good in his soul.

WTF did you think it was?

I thought it was a Jedi mind trick, but I see now.

Luke did one of those backwards "I can control the dark and light side in me" tricks. So he was able to learn choke with out turning to the dark side.

I see. It was a very light, non-agressive force choke.

Luke did not Grip them, like Vader did. Momentarily stunned them.

And watch Revenge of the Sith! What do you think Dooku is doing to Obi-Wan that makes him float in the air gasping for breath?

And Maul did not know the Lightning trick. He was a deadly swordsman, not a powerful Force-user.

I fully agree with all of your points.

Wow, that's the first time I've heard that in the Episode III section in a long time... 😂

Thanks, Matreid.

Though, Luke's slight stun thing does look like a Grip, I must admit; they do reach for their throats. I suppose it isn't a purely evil power...though, depends on your use. If you use it to stun someone? Not evil. If you use it to kill someone by choking the life out of them or making their heart explode? Evil.

However, lightning doesn't work that way. Sith Lightning is a concentration of the user's hatred/anger/fear/etc., so can't be a Jedi thing.
