Yeah that is what I am talking about.
you have to take into consideration that it may have been ritual-induced, as opposed to a spur of the moment ability he has access too.
It was not a ritual he was in the senate at the time and he didnt sacrfice anyone likle he did wtiht eh Massasi at the end of the comic.
In addition, mind-tricking isn't a combat feat. It's been established that force abilities belong to categories, which is why most force users "excell" at certain things. While impressive by its own merits, being able to mind-trick mass amounts of people is not indicative of an ability to repel a temple destroying force wave.
Well its probably harder to sue against force users bit it could be used in combat. Kaan was able to mind control force users for exmaple and he was a weakling.
Also, he might be able to use the amulets to block the force wave. If he unleashes one of the building sized ones it should cover area pf force wave and push it back.

Do we have any evidence that his Amulet-blast can push back Force waves?
Sounds like two different mediums to me.
Also, I agree with Blax.
In a Force fight, Bane could just charge up a powerful TK wave, and likely release it in the same way that ended up killing Kas'im.
Depends which is more powerful but i dont think the force wave will just pass through the blasts and i think they would make contact, as long as blasts are wide and tall enough.
In fight against Kasim Bane has to powerup during kasims speech to use force wave. Im sure it will take at the least several seconds. Kun cna spam blasts at will and leisure.

I've never heard of pure energy making contact with TK.

True.
We're still missing the fact that the amulets increase Kun's rage and by extention his connection to the Dark Side exponentially. By the words of the narration alone, thousands of times. This is a man who shrugged off the Wall of Light technique from the foremost practitioner of said technique, ragdolled or dominated every Jedi to step up to him once he acquired said amulets, and toyed with Vodo before destroying him in saber combat. Literally, the instant Kun decided the fight was over, he clove through a stick that was, and I quote, made "stronger than a lightsaber". That's not to suggest that a lightsaber itself would break under Kun's strength (although the user would certainly suffer) but that's an immense amount of strength he can apply one-handed. Look at Kun's blade once both blades are out - there's literally no way to put all of his strength into a swing, yet he decimates Vodo's staff and the Jedi Master in a single continuous swing.
Bane's no push-over. I think if anyone can defeat Kun or at least come damn close, his name would be one I'd pick. But let's not sell Kun short either. He was a titan in Force powers, and his amulets boost him to levels beyond the rank and file.
By DoE Bane is a Titan. He is a master of defensive fighting (see the rain feat) and he is insanely powerful with the force, and can make a cocoon of dark energy at any time (fight with Zannah on Doan, he made it during her saber swing, and it protected him then exploded)
On a nexus (maybe off one, but he only performed the technique on Prakith) he can create an aura of pure dark side, which instantly saps the life of anybody who enters it and transfers it to him.

Didn't happen.

That feat is wanked. The book notes that the temple is rundown and ancient. Then when Bane uses his force wave it destroys the entrance to the temple which destabilizes the structure causing the rest to collapse. It's still highly impressive, but not as great as some make it out to be.
