Who is Darth Nox and where are his TK feats? Dooku is an enormously talented telekineticist so I'm hesitant to give this guy the nod in that department without ample proof.
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 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.

That's in Mizukage's link?
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.
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.

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.
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?
Smuggler, duh.
He can kick you in the nuts!

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.

Also, the whole Voice thing, again, is an extension of the Emperor's will.
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.
