PoD Bane runs the gauntlet

Arguably (though overall combat prowess basically and I factor in stuff like the orbalisks). I haven't read DoE so I'm not too aware of the circumstances behind his battle with Zannah, and I haven't read much of the NJO stuff so I'm not sure how consistently powerful Luke can be said to be. I'm open to others being better but I think he has the feats and comprehensive skill set to probably put him at number 1.

there are quite a few more powerful than bane my friend

luke and palps by a LONG shot

lord vitiate, darth caedus, maybe exar kun, yoda, etc.

Edit: Bane's feats (of his own power, NOT rituals) don't compare with the likes of these people

Yeah but it was a ritual. Its not actual Force lightning and PoD specifically says the ritual would 'unite the minds and spirits of the Sith through a single vessel' and while using it that 'Their minds drifted deeper and deeper into the well of power contained within each individual, drawing on their strength and combining it through a single conduit.'

Does it matter that it was peformed during a ritual? The ability he demonstrated wasn't a product of the ritual, it was a requirement. Those quotes are just describing the act of willingly joining their power with Bane's, the form it took was absolutely Force lightning.

You should read up on Vitiate though, the mans got the chops to surpass Sidious imo.

😐

vitiate won't surpass DE sidious... ever, because i don't think some 3rd party company's character will become more powerful than GL's personal sith lord

And Nihilus and Bane. Vitiate's basically the top dawg now.

vitiate is not the top dawg. he doesnt compare with DE sid, sid has one of the most enormous advantages possible in his saber mastery, and probably has greater force abilities (BM, force storms, very powerful lightning, moves faster than eye can percieve, etc.) he's mind dominated LUKE SKYWALKER, and not only did he hide his true nature from the shatterpoint-seeing mace windu, and the acute perceptions of master yoda, but he also clouded the jedi's vision in the dark side

That's... not what I meant by that. 😐

Bro, again I am just keeping it real here. Sidious is really damn powerful and is definitely the majority favorite for people as 'Da Best'. He is the Sith to beat, which is why I used him as an example.

Also Tulak Hord bro. Tulak Hord is really damn good now. Rips a 300 meter long cruiser out of the sky, solos armies of a thousand + Jedi, feeds off of their deaths and has legendary lightsaber skills.

I suppose tulak MIGHT be on yoda level, but we need more feats to say anything. also, tulak is canonically weaker than vitiate, who is canonically (and in my opinion) weaker than sidious

Edit: also we don't know the circumstances of the ship feat. we don't know if he only guided it, or if he was being amped, etc.

Could Yoda defeat 1000 Jedi? Lolnutz I think no!t Clearly Tulak Hord would utterly cream him in a fight and then pull a Star Destroyer down to sit on him.

That is, iff he isn't too small to hit! Hahahaaaahhahah!¬ 😆

Tulak Hord is homosexual.

Well he's obviously very adept at handling a saber, nowuimsayun?

lmao

my God, how the greatest jedi of the PT era is quickly batted away by some dashade/old lady's comments

Whatever dude, the guy pulled a battleship out of the sky. Thats just as good as Yoda's best feat in terms of TK and Yoda did it in an 'exaggerated' show. Also I'm sorry, but defeating armies of 1000+ Jedi singlehandedly is ****ing impressive as hell. Its unprecedented is what it is. Tulak Hords a ****ing beast, and obviously at least powerful enough to seriously challenge Yoda.

we dont know the circumstances of any of his feats, as this character has not been shown in-depth in any sources (as far as i know)

You can speculate that Hord used a ritual or charged up his power to pull down the ship but you can speculate the very same thing about Yoda when he performs his CW dropship feat. And the circumstances of him solo'ing an army of Jedi is irrelevant. He sallied forth and killed them all. What could be circumstantial about that?

yes, he soloed an army of most-likely fodder jedi, congrats (heck vitiate/sidious woulda just mind dominated them lol)

Edit: yoda could probably perform that same feat, with his blinding speed he'd blitz em all

Ultimately, yes, hord would give yoda one hell of a fight, but yoda just has FAR more feats than hord does

Which is all I'm saying.

while obviously you were halfway joking, this leads me to believe you'd think hord wins.
