Bastilla was labelled a force and lightsaber prodigy by the Masters on the Dantooine Council during KotOR. I don't recall Vader (cyborg or pre cyborg) being stated or supported as being one. She was also noted as having exceptional innate talent with the force, so she ticks all of the boxes really: force strength, force prodigy and lightsaber prodigy. As a padawan, she was already considered a legend among the Jedi, a rising star among their ranks, and beyond most of the then current masters despite her lack of age/rank/experience. She was extremely prodigious. Her ability to form bonds (with Revan) also strongly speaks for her massive force strength, and this was even noted by the masters.
She was labelled a master swordsman, and the doublebladed lightsaber was her weapon of choice, a weapon that was pretty rare by PT times, and thus would be much more deadly to someone like Vader.
The experience she received on her journeys with Revan during KotOR 1 would had made her extremely powerful (Revan's party comes across literally hundreds of Dark Jedi during KotOR, so it can be assumed that Bastilla faced and defeated quite the number. That's just Dark Jedi, she would have also received loads of experience on all of the quests that go on through KotOR). She was already an extremely gifted and powerful Knight, so by halfway through KotOR (where she becomes a Knight) and by the end of KotOR 2 (where she's a Master), her improvement rate would have been huge (given the huge experience she received, her youth and her prodigy). The fact that she survived Sion and Nihilus' Shadow Wars also speaks volumes, and the speed in which she climbed the ranks is tremendous.
Not only did she receive training in the lightside of the force by the Jedi, but she was also given extensive training in the darkside by Malak. This can be seen when she knows of such techniques as force lightning and force drain. She was also powered up by The Star Forge to some degree (given that Malak was relying on her impressive Battle Meditation to defeat the Republic, he would have wanted to power her up as much as possible as long as there was enough power left for him), and as we know the power up would remain permanent, so her already extremely impressive strength in the force would have been further augmented by an imaginable tremendous increase.
Her lightsaber skills were clearly incredible, given that when she was a mere padawan, she displayed the ability to lightsaber tool a powerful Dark Jedi that had been accompanying Revan in mere seconds (it's in a cutscene at the start of KotOR). The Dark jedi was accompanying Darth Revan, so he was clearly one of the more powerful Dark Jedi, yet Bastilla, while still a padawan, completely owned him. That kind of tremendous an=ability while still a padawan makes you wonder how powerful she becomes by the end of KotOR two, with all her extra training and experience, and after being SF powered.
The fact that she was even given the responsibility to be part of the strike team that was responsible for capturing Revan speaks volumes. Now I know people will say she was only picked for her Battle Meditation, but that was to only ensure that the strike team would be able to board Revan's ship. She wouldn't have also subsequently boarded Revan's ship with the other jedi if they didn't believe she had the skills to be an asset. So the fact that the Jedi Order gave her so much responsibility (also seen when that let Bastilla in on Revan's true identity) despite her young age and lack of experience speaks volumes for how gifted a padawan she was.
Now when Malak blasted on Revan's ship just before the Jedi could face him, it knocked Revan unconscious and would have killed him if not for Bastilla. Not only did she survive and remain conscious after the ship had been hit (which had enough power to kill Revan), but she was also able to use the force to heal Revan and keep him alive.
Now all of the above is mostly not even mentioning her force ability, which is what she excels at. First off, her willpower was so incredible that she was able to force dominate a fricking Hutt. That alone puts her will beyond any movie character, given they all viewed such a feat as impossible, and thought of Hutts as being immune to mind tricks.
Another thing supporting her tremendous will (as well as force strength) is how incredible her battle meditation was. It was above that of people such as Nomi Sunrider (who could literally visualise something, and it would just happen: force her will onto reality), and so strong that she had the ability to turn the tide of wars instantaneously for a side that was seconds away from defeat and losing badly. her ability with the technique was so great that both the Jedi and the Sith (when she was one) literally solely relied on it for the war effort.
She's also displayed the force strength to instantly stun two very powerful jedi (Jolee Bindo and Juhani) pretty effortlessly. I don't recall Vader ever being able to force own powerful force users like that. Now what people don't seem to get is overpowering any force user, no matter how you do it, always requires the same power, and that is the power to break through their force defence. In other words, if she chose to, she could have just as easily been able to instantly kill both of them on the spot. Now seeing as how people go on about Exar Kun force owning Odan-Urr like he did, and Traya owning those Jedi Masters like she did, you have to view what Bastilla did as even more incredible, given she did it instantly.
Her stats are also pretty damn uber (in comparison to the others), and they only grow way more powerful after she turns to the darkside. In sticking to the nature of her class when levelling up, she can become pretty uber. In particular, I’d like to note that Vader’s main strength is the fear he inspires in his opponents, yet Bastilla has a force immunity to fear.
Face it, Bastilla pwns.
Ill get back to this later and ill garentee you i will pwn you

I deleted the rest of your pathetic argument because it's stupid beyond belief. Vader crushes Bastila with relative ease.
]Bastilla was labelled a force and lightsaber prodigy by the Masters on the Dantooine Council during KotOR.
No, she wasn't this was never stated at all or even implied, stop lying.
I don't recall Vader (cyborg or pre cyborg) being stated or supported as being one.
Well lets take into consideration the fact that he went from a padawan getting shitted on by Count Dooku to a Jedi Knight who knew "all forms of combat even to most dangerous styles." and absolutely destroying the before-mentioned Sith Lord in 8 seconds, all in a few years.
She was also noted as having exceptional innate talent with the force,
Thats true but really so does every other main character of any Star Wars: game/novel/rpg/comic/movie/cartoon...you get my drift.
so she ticks all of the boxes really: force strength, force prodigy and lightsaber prodigy.
Except for your lying about 2 of those.
As a padawan, she was already considered a legend among the Jedi
LOL...no.
and beyond most of the then current masters despite her lack of age/rank/experience.
Pfft where the f*ck did you get that shit from? The only thing in-game that even comes close to that is Bastila HERSELF claiming she was hot shit, which of course is her VERY fallible opinion.
Her ability to form bonds (with Revan) also strongly speaks for her massive force strength, and this was even noted by the masters.
Again, no it wasn't, and the bond formed simply because she saved his life, and considering its heavily implied in KOTOR 2 that Revan could form mass bonds I'd say that him latently forming a bond with Bastila is nothing special.
She was labelled a master swordsman
LOL...no.
and the doublebladed lightsaber was her weapon of choice, a weapon that was pretty rare by PT times, and thus would be much more deadly to someone like Vader.
Here's what happened to someone who tried to use a Double bladed saber against Vader:
The experience she received on her journeys with Revan during KotOR 1 would had made her extremely powerful (Revan's party comes across literally hundreds of Dark Jedi during KotOR, so it can be assumed that Bastilla faced and defeated quite the number. That's just Dark Jedi, she would have also received loads of experience on all of the quests that go on through KotOR).
Gameplay element, genius.
and by the end of KotOR 2 (where she's a Master),
Proof.
her improvement rate would have been huge (given the huge experience she received, her youth and her prodigy).
The fact that she survived Sion and Nihilus' Shadow Wars also speaks volumes,
and the speed in which she climbed the ranks is tremendous.
Proof.
but she was also given extensive training in the darkside by Malak.
Proof.
This can be seen when she knows of such techniques as force lightning and force drain.
Great, so can every other neophyte Sith under the sun.
and as we know the power up would remain permanent,
Um...no. The power up is not permanent if she was cut from her power source then logically the power would you know...go away...
Her lightsaber skills were clearly incredible, given that when she was a mere padawan, she displayed the ability to lightsaber tool a powerful Dark Jedi that had been accompanying Revan in mere seconds (it's in a cutscene at the start of KotOR). The Dark jedi was accompanying Darth Revan, so he was clearly one of the more powerful Dark Jedi, yet Bastilla, while still a padawan, completely owned him.
Oh wow, random Dark Jedi must be powerful for the sheer fact that he was standing next to Revan 🙄
That kind of tremendous an=ability while still a padawan makes you wonder how powerful she becomes by the end of KotOR two, with all her extra training and experience, and after being SF powered.
Actually it doesn't since your lying about 80% of the shit said in your argument.
She wouldn't have also subsequently boarded Revan's ship with the other jedi if they didn't believe she had the skills to be an asset. So the fact that the Jedi Order gave her so much responsibility (also seen when that let Bastilla in on Revan's true identity) despite her young age and lack of experience speaks volumes for how gifted a padawan she was.
Not really, no, with the fact that its in Bastila's nature at the time to run ahead arrogantly, thats logically what she did (she did it on the Leviathan) and then theres this:
Bastila is brash and impulsive. She is overconfident and seems to walk invincible through her world, though that is hardly the case. - from gamebanshee
anther point would be the Jedi needed all the help they could muster to take down Revan and would have needed even a padawan to help, anther logical reason is for her to use BM on them while fighting Revan.
Not only did she survive and remain conscious after the ship had been hit (which had enough power to kill Revan), but she was also able to use the force to heal Revan and keep him alive.
No, she was able to use the force to keep him from dieing thats a BIG difference from HEALING him, she did nothing of the sort she simple (as she says in game) kept the spark alive in Revans body.
First off, her willpower was so incredible that she was able to force dominate a fricking Hutt. That alone puts her will beyond any movie character, given they all viewed such a feat as impossible, and thought of Hutts as being immune to mind tricks.
She's also displayed the force strength to instantly stun two very powerful jedi (Jolee Bindo and Juhani) pretty effortlessly.
LOL, your following point is void cause they kinda blew.
Her stats are also pretty damn uber (in comparison to the others), and they only grow way more powerful after she turns to the darkside. In sticking to the nature of her class when levelling up, she can become pretty uber. In particular, I’d like to note that Vader’s main strength is the fear he inspires in his opponents, yet Bastilla has a force immunity to fear.
gameplay stats...
Face it, Bastilla pwns.
No, not really.
Originally posted by allfgLol! Provide the quote where bastila was stated to be a prodigy, if i remember correctly which i do, No such thing was ever stated and According to the novels, anakin is a saber prodigy, Though vader has slowed down in dueling, he developed his style where it was stated it is highly unpredictable and it slaughtered countless jedis.
Bastilla was labelled a force and lightsaber prodigy by the Masters on the Dantooine Council during KotOR. I don't recall Vader (cyborg or pre cyborg) being stated or supported as being one.
Originally posted by allfgOOOO so forming bonds = super jedi, Nice logic nebaris . The exile could form bonds far better than bastila yet she was stated by the council to only be an ordinary jedi master. And her "rising star" status was due to her participation in the war by using BM and capturing revan which sadly malak helped to finish the job.
She was also noted as having exceptional innate talent with the force, so she ticks all of the boxes really: force strength, force prodigy and lightsaber prodigy. As a padawan, she was already considered a legend among the Jedi, a rising star among their ranks, and beyond most of the then current masters despite her lack of age/rank/experience. She was extremely prodigious. Her ability to form bonds (with Revan) also strongly speaks for her massive force strength, and this was even noted by the masters.
Originally posted by allfgDeadly? Vader parried mauls attacks with ease until maul switched to jarkai. And quigon fought maul climatically though it was the first time he fought some one with a DB saber, Again nice logic you demonstrated
She was labelled a master swordsman, and the doublebladed lightsaber was her weapon of choice, a weapon that was pretty rare by PT times, and thus would be much more deadly to someone like Vader.
Originally posted by allfgRight right, "hundreds" of DJ, If i remember its 3 on each planet right? So lets see 6 planets = 18 DJs. Oops! And she had revan with her. And surviving the war = uber jedi?
The experience she received on her journeys with Revan during KotOR 1 would had made her extremely powerful (Revan's party comes across literally hundreds of Dark Jedi during KotOR, so it can be assumed that Bastilla faced and defeated quite the number. That's just Dark Jedi, she would have also received loads of experience on all of the quests that go on through KotOR). She was already an extremely gifted and powerful Knight, so by halfway through KotOR (where she becomes a Knight) and by the end of KotOR 2 (where she's a Master), her improvement rate would have been huge (given the huge experience she received, her youth and her prodigy). The fact that she survived Sion and Nihilus' Shadow Wars also speaks volumes, and the speed in which she climbed the ranks is tremendous.
Originally posted by allfgNot only did anakin receive training in the Lightside of the force, he made dooku look like a joke, He became a cyborg and as of that state slaughtered so many faster jedis than he is and so many "uber" jedis who survived the war and thus bringing down tanks as big as an ATAT, Shaking down a building with only his rage when he was anakin(You bet vaders force mastery and powers are greater than that of anakin save for lightsaber skills) and tearing down a building with a technique in eaw.
Not only did she receive training in the lightside of the force by the Jedi, but she was also given extensive training in the darkside by Malak. This can be seen when she knows of such techniques as force lightning and force drain.

Originally posted by allfgnice logic again. Even as the scene started bastila was already fighting that Dark jedi and she could have been fighting against that DJ for ages. Vader on the other hand parried the attacks of 4 jedi masters at once pwning sia lan wez with ease and forced maul who was using juyo to use jarkai, Note that juyo form killed quigon.Her lightsaber skills were clearly incredible, given that when she was a mere padawan, she displayed the ability to lightsaber tool a powerful Dark Jedi that had been accompanying Revan in mere seconds (it's in a cutscene at the start of KotOR).

Originally posted by allfgIf bastila was so almighty powerful in the first place, why would she even need a strike team, Leia isnt as strong as luke in DE and yet she went to face the most powerful sith lord alone.
The fact that she was even given the responsibility to be part of the strike team that was responsible for capturing Revan speaks volumes. Now I know people will say she was only picked for her Battle Meditation, but that was to only ensure that the strike team would be able to board Revan's ship.

Originally posted by allfgWell lets see, remember more will = stronger force? Sidioius lifted an entire SSD and buried it in coruscant. The exile also managed to pursuade a toydarian, yet she is inferior to revan and nihilus and yet more powerful than bastila, Your point?
Now all of the above is mostly not even mentioning her force ability, which is what she excels at. First off, her willpower was so incredible that she was able to force dominate a fricking Hutt.

Now what people don't seem to get is overpowering any force user, no matter how you do it, always requires the same power, and that is the power to break through their force defence. In other words, if she chose to, she could have just as easily been able to instantly kill both of them on the spot.

Originally posted by allfgNo, vaders greatest feats is the immense power in his attacks and provide a source where it states bastila is immune to fear, right you dont

Originally posted by allfgFace it, you have been pwned again and vader has been proven to > bastila
Face it, bastila pwns
You can't nominate who you argue against. If you're wrong and everyone wants to argue against you, then that's how it is. Sorry.
Meanwhile, Vader takes this. Anakin/Vader wasn't a lightsaber prodigy, eh? Let's just forget that he was a better duelist than most of the Order by the time he was in his early 20's...and let's forget that he was the Chosen One and had tons of raw power, too. Which he honed. Yup...
Bastila was a prodigy, yes, but I don't think she was all that amazing. Her training with Malak was minimal at best, I should think; any powers she uses while on the Dark Side is merely gameplay mechanics.
And the Mind Tricking of Toydarians and Hutts is, again, just crappy gameplay mechanics. TPM and ROTJ established those races as having a natural immunity to Mind Tricks. The Wizards Star Wars RPG gives them this, and samples of the species say so themselves.
This will be closed unless a reasonable argument for Bastila's victory can be posted.
