ROTJ Palps is more powerful in the Force but lacks the physical stats for a fight with Seifer IMO.
ROTS sidious alone demonstrated incredible combat prowess by killing 3 of the greatest swordsman in the jedi order under 10 seconds despite the fact he has not fought for 13 years.
Again does it matter? Seifers gunblade is sliced in half.

But this is ROTS Sidious as seen in the OP.

That's why he's a decrepit old prune in ROTJ? It's even mentioned in the EU that his body was failing him because of his immersion in the Dark Side. By the OT, Palpatine was hardly in a great physical shape.
Again does it matter? Seifers gunblade is sliced in half.
That's if Palpatine is able to hit said gunblade which is doubtful.
Or palpatine can easily crush him with the force.
And Seifer can easily crush Palpatine with a Flare spell or any other kind of magic.

But hey i guess this quote says your wrong : . As the Emperor, he appears to be a frail, weak old man, but is actually quite supernaturally powerful. Palpatine may be viewed as the quintessential wolf in sheep's clothing.
You seem to forget that palpatine merely ACTED weak.
Really? If he is so damm weak by the OT as you claim, then why didn't vader or ANYBODY for that matter DARE to attack him or engage him in a duel?
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodLol your an idiot, if he were to strike seifer, seifer would put him his gun blade right? His gunblade would make contact with the lightsaber rigghhhht!!?!?!?!?1oneone!!!!?

Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodLaughable seeing that palpatine can simply deflect magic with a mere force shield and the fact that palpatine has techniques that seifer has never even heard off and the fact that he cannot defend against them.

Ever heard of a force storm? How about a force drain which has the capabilities to suck out a planets life?
Or have you forgot that palpatine as of ROTJ could kill 100 storm troopers with one blast of lightning? Or create a wormhole powerful enough to rip out a planets surface and destroy entire star fleets? Or use lightning to reduce his opponents to charred bones and ashes?
Or the fact that since he mastered every force technique, all he has to do is cloak himself and be invisible to seifer which would allow him to annihilate seifer.
Now. Go back to the games versus forums.
You're both partially correct. The dark side energies within Palpatine were so potent that they were killing him, as per the paradox of the dark side, according to both the Essential Guide to the Force and the Dark Side Sourcebook that "the more successful the dark sider, the more quickly that dark sider's body decays". However, the Complete Visual Dictionary notes that Palpatine oftentimes exaggerated his physical weakness, such as using a cane in public, when the truth was that he didn't need it. And in Dark Empire, his potency only increased, which is why his clones began to expire much quicker and why he had to resort to possessing a body of Skywalker-class power. In his final clone body, Palpatine was "barely able to walk", with every usage of the Force only speeding him along to his demise, and he still managed to overpower Leia Organa Solo, Rayf Ysanna, and Enpatojayos Brand.
Likewise, consider Yoda's own physical weakness and immobility, and yet was still able to draw upon the Force to enhance his physical attributes. There's no reason to believe Palpatine, even as of Return of the Jedi, could not do the same.
Uh only his clone body was "failing" him in dark empire 2 and empires end, Do your damn research before making stupid statements.
Do your own.
Every source supports Palpatine's frail body was failing him. including simply looking at him.
Obviously such skill has eluded you.
But hey i guess this quote says your wrong : . As the Emperor, he appears to be a frail, weak old man, but is actually quite supernaturally powerful. Palpatine may be viewed as the quintessential wolf in sheep's clothing.
Well no, it doesn't. It says appearances are deceiving... why are they deceiving in Palpatine's case? Because he can shoot you full of lightning or rape your mind.
It says nothing about his actual physical power.
Really? If he is so damm weak by the OT as you claim, then why didn't vader or ANYBODY for that matter DARE to attack him or engage him in a duel?
Probably because of his immensely superior Force powers.
I never denied he grew stronger in the Force. I'm talking about his physical condition and nothing more.
Lol your an idiot, if he were to strike seifer, seifer would put him his gun blade right? His gunblade would make contact with the lightsaber rigghhhht!!?!?!?!?1oneone!!!!?
No. He could use the advanced, seldom seen forbidden art of simply dodging the blade.
Laughable seeing that palpatine can simply deflect magic with a mere force shield and the fact that palpatine has techniques that seifer has never even heard off and the fact that he cannot defend against them.
Palpatine having used a Force shield in any fight he's ever been in...
But assuming he will that's nice. Quantify the damage thtis shield can take.
As for moves Seifer's never seen, Seifer is throwing out shit Palpatine's never seen.
Ever heard of a force storm? How about a force drain which has the capabilities to suck out a planets life?
A. This isn't DE Palpatine. No one ever said Seifer could beat that version.
B. Force Drain over a period of time can drain a planet. Yay. I guess Seifer will just pick his teeth while Palpatine does that.
Or have you forgot that palpatine as of ROTJ could kill 100 storm troopers with one blast of lightning?
Uh-huh...so, fodder storm-troopers vs. Odin...which is the more impressive one-shotting feat? Tough call.
Or create a wormhole powerful enough to rip out a planets surface and destroy entire star fleets?
DE Palpatine.
Or use lightning to reduce his opponents to charred bones and ashes?
I guess Seifer better not just stand there while Palpatine slowly lifts his hands and aims lightning at him.
Or the fact that since he mastered every force technique, all he has to do is cloak himself and be invisible to seifer which would allow him to annihilate seifer.
That involves actively forcing the mind of the person to think they're not seeing anyone. Seifer's will is a bit too strong for that.

And it was in empires ends when his body was actually failing him fool, the fact that at that time if he used the force it would constantly drain his body.
Does the same happen to him in return of the jedi?

Force users with this rare ability could use the Force to photokinetically bend light around themselves, rendering them invisible to others. Since it physically bent light like a cloaking device, this power could be used to hide from beings such as droids and the Yuuzhan Vong, beings normally immune to Force-based illusions.
If so, then how does one appear invisible to a JEDI whom can resist such "mind tricks"?
Oh right, i just remembered, if yoda can use the force to enhance his physical capabilities, i don't see why palpatine can't.
Obviously common sense says your an idiot. Again He was merely acting weak, hell that quote proves your wrong and you still insist on arguing about something you have already been proven wrong against.
Um, no it doesn't.
It means he looks weak but at the drop of a hat he can fry your ass with lightning.
Way to assume it applies to his physical power though. I like it when people think things based on nothing.

True.
Oh, one tiny detail, he was in a totally different body from ROTJ.
Kinda forgot to mention that.

Of course having the laser sword that can cut through anything probably helped..........
Again if his physical condition was so damm frail and weak, how the hell would he be even able to be physically strong enough to command the force?
Same way a near-dead Yoda could.
Same way a totally crushed Exar Kun could.
All the time? Then why is he even holding the gunblade in the first place?
Probably to use as a weapon after dodging? Counterattack and all that.
Ever read the dark empire source book where it states he masters every force technique?
Of course it does. That doesn't change he never used it.
To block attacks powerful enough to turn living organisms to a pulp, and this was demonstrated by an even weaker sith lord known as kasim.
Cool.

But Seifer has good durability.

1) You never named those sources.
2) The part you claimed when he stated his body was failing took place in his sabotaged clone body in empires end.
3) You said he is physically weak simply by the way it looks when that quote i posted stated that he acted weak and in fact didn't need a walking cane which eliminates any claims that he is "frail and weak" as you are implying.
The thing is fool, that quote DOES prove me right, i am making a claim that he isn't "frail and weak" and if he was wouldn't he actually needed the cane?

He was fighting at remarkable combat prowess seconds after he exited his old body and into a young body.
This brings up the issue that if he was so frail and weak in his first clone body on byss(Using your logic that he looks weak as of ROTJ, we should also not forget that his first clone body on byss looked the same way it did as of ROTJ)
, how did he have the strength and skill to practice with the lightsaber?
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodCorrect! But wouldn't he be "too frail and weak" to even swing a saber with enough momentum to deflect blaster bolts and cut an opponent in half? If he was "too frail and weak" wouldn't his lightsaber bounce back to him and kill him if he tried to block a bolt?

When has some one tried to fry him with force lightning? When has some one tried to blast him with an amulet?
When has anybody tried to force drain him?
Oh and before you ramble about how he let his guard down when he got force pushed, he was not serious at that moment and the fact that he was not taking yoda seriously.

1) You never named those sources.
The Essential Guide to the Force and the Dark SIde Sourcebook. 😄
2) The part you claimed when he stated his body was failing took place in his sabotaged clone body in empires end.
So you're saying his body wasn't decaying?
3) You said he is physically weak simply by the way it looks when that quote i posted stated that he acted weak and in fact didn't need a walking cane which eliminates any claims that he is "frail and weak" as you are implying.

Um, Palpatine never had Yoda-level speed and agility. He definitely couldn't do most of the agility stunts the pint-sized Grandmaster performed.
You made a claim that he is weak because of the way he looks, and i posted quotes which disproved your absurd and unsupported claims and you still insist you are right and claim those quotes "irrelevant".
They are. They simply say he looks weak...does that mean he isn't physically weak? Perhaps the deception lies in the fact you see a frail old man and said old man can fry your ass. There's nothing in those quotes that substantiates your claims he's that powerful or fast in physical combat by ROTJ.
And can you even raise your hands if your "frail and weak" let alone fast enough to kill some one before he even aims his gun at you?
I know plenty of people I could call old and frail. They can raise theri hands fine. But they can't jump or do flips or spin in the air.
This brings up the issue that if he was so frail and weak in his first clone body on byss(Using your logic that he looks weak as of ROTJ, we should also not forget that his first clone body on byss looked the same way it did as of ROTJ)
, how did he have the strength and skill to practice with the lightsaber?
Except we know one is a fresh clone body and the other is a well-worn regular human body...they aren't comparable no matter what they look like.
Correct! But wouldn't he be "too frail and weak" to even swing a saber with enough momentum to deflect blaster bolts and cut an opponent in half? If he was "too frail and weak" wouldn't his lightsaber bounce back to him and kill him if he tried to block a bolt?
I think you're confusing frail and weak with basically disabled and paraplegic.
I mean, waving a basically weightless sword doesn't put that much strain on a body.
Friend, you forgot that exar kun could Barely use the force at that state.
Didn't he um, heal himself with it?
Or to defend himself from strikes, didn't we see that in the ff8 opening?
Except now he's fighting someone with a blade made of energy, not metal.
Ill ask you a question, was there ever a time he needed to use this technique? Was there a threat large enough to use it to defend against?
What about when Senate Pod was thrown back in his face?
And having good durability won't save your from being turned to bones and ashes.
Why not? The Zantetsuken is stronger than Palpatine's Force lightning.
Hell if i were a soldier and armed with a machine gun and my opponent lays there with his weapons not drawn and staring at me, i can simply pull out my weapon slowly then shoot him...
And you'd be shot dead while doing that.
Quick draw wins the contest.
Force sense? Force precognition? Again do your damn research.
So what you're saying is that they're not invisible really. Just optically disguised.

Do you basically know what the whole metaphor was for? It basically meant a physically weaker character like yoda could use the force to augment his physical capabilities and seeing that yoda,mace windu, darth traya all could do this, i don't see why palpatine can't which again eliminates the "he is frail and weak" claim.
And to make matters worse, you said you conceded this point, then i ask, why the hell are you still bringing up a point you have conceded?
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodYou by far is probably the most stupid and idiotic forum member i have ever met other than evilangel.
They are. They simply say he looks weak...does that mean he isn't physically weak?
The quote itself is saying that he gives the impression that he is WEAK, and since your so stupid you are probably asking "Huh? What weak? Does it mean physically weak"?
You know what the answer is? Yes, he gave the impression that he is physically weak, which is WHY HE CARRIED A CANE!
The quote itself is eliminating your absurd claim that he is physically weak.
You made a claim that he is weak because of the way he looks, and that quote disproves you when it stated he merely acted that way.
So no friend, it isn't irrelevant, you saying so does not make it so.
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodPerhaps your far too stupid to realise the fact that the quotes were referring to him looking physically weak.
Perhaps the deception lies in the fact you see a frail old man and said old man can fry your ass.
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodAnd there is nothing to even back your claims that he is "frail and weak" other than claiming he looks that way when it has already been disproven by the ultimate visual dictionary
There's nothing in those quotes that substantiates your claims he's that powerful or fast in physical combat by ROTJ.
The only thing you have ever said to attempt to back your unsupported claim is "He looks frail and weak".
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodMaybe you forgot the whole reason why jedis can do all those flip jumps and spins is because of the force augmenting their physical abilities which palpatine has been shown to do.
I know plenty of people I could call old and frail. They can raise theri hands fine. But they can't jump or do flips or spin in the air.
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodI'm sorry idiot but the body we saw in dark empire before palpatine commited suicide was a worn out and decayed body as we saw in ROTJ.
Except we know one is a fresh clone body and the other is a well-worn regular human body...they aren't comparable no matter what they look like.Fresh clone body?
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodOh but using it with enough strength to block a bolt and not have the lightsaber tilt back and cut your own body would need strength... and skill for that matter.
I mean, waving a basically weightless sword doesn't put that much strain on a body.

Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodMaybe because he thought it would be easier to jump to another pod? Or maybe he learnt the technique after the jedi purge.

Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodOk.
Why not? The Zantetsuken is stronger than Palpatine's Force lightning.
Originally posted by Pyron_is_GodFair enough, but palpatine was toying with yoda at first, does not mean he always will "slowly" lift his hands considering the fact that he did it the instant yoda leaped on his pod.
And you'd be shot dead while doing that.Quick draw wins the contest.

I don't have to. YOU said he was frail and weak. I never did.

You should read Gideon's post.
LOL never heard of TPM sidious? When he moved faster than the eye can see during his training with darth maul?
Uh-huh...Seifer can do that too so....
Not like it matters since this isn't TPM Palpatine.

Because you're the one who kept bringing it up.

Thank you. You're the most raven retarded fanboy I've met since burning thought.
You know what the answer is? Yes, he gave the impression that he is physically weak, which is WHY HE CARRIED A CANE!The quote itself is eliminating your absurd claim that he is physically weak.
You made a claim that he is weak because of the way he looks, and that quote disproves you when it stated he merely acted that way.
Uh-huh. Nice assumptions. Come back when the quote even vaguely mentions how strong Palpatine was physiclaly.
Perhaps your far too stupid to realise the fact that the quotes were referring to him looking physically weak.
That's the whole goddam point.
HE LOOKS weak but he can shoot lightning at you.
It has NOTHING to say or do with how powerful he is physically.
If I had wrinkles, walked with a cane and generally looked zncient enough to be a person's grreat grandfather, I'd appear weak. But if I was a Jedi, I still could do shit like Force push you away with a thought.
That's all those quotes are saying and your constant reading into them is annoying.
And there is nothing to even back your claims that he is "frail and weak" other than claiming he looks that way when it has already been disproven by the ultimate visual dictionary
Well:
A) "Frail and weak" are your words retard. Stop countering yourself.
B) It is said Palpatine's body is decaying. I guess people with decaying bodies are in great physical condition.
Maybe you forgot the whole reason why jedis can do all those flip jumps and spins is because of the force augmenting their physical abilities which palpatine has been shown to do.[/quote[Yes, as of ROTS and a little while after. As of ROTJ you have no proof of how strong he is physically. The fact he is decaying is a good hint he's not doing well.
[quote] I'm sorry idiot but the body we saw in dark empire before palpatine commited suicide was a worn out and decayed body as we saw in ROTJ.
Sure it was. Continue with your assumtpions.
Oh but using it with enough strength to block a bolt and not have the lightsaber tilt back and cut your own body would need strength... and skill for that matter.
Fine.
Um freedon nadd was the one who healed him moron, please read TOTJ DLOTS again.
No it wasn't. I saw this whole debate on this forum in a topic lik ea weeka go.
Fair enough, but if palpatine can't contend with seifer in a duel, why would he do so in the first place? In fact palpatine prefers using the force.
And that's his best chance here.
Fair enough, but palpatine was toying with yoda at first, does not mean he always will "slowly" lift his hands considering the fact that he did it the instant yoda leaped on his pod.
tRUE.
Uh yes they are invisible dumbass, or else the exile or any force sensitive wouldnt need to sense them through the force.
So, optically disguised but other senses can find them.
