Darth Thanaton runs the PT gauntlet!

new guy, by that logic, thanaton >>>> kenobi, which is simply put, not true.

Why not?

Because SWTOR sucks, bro.

👆

Thanaton can use force lightning to fly like Sith Iron Man.

Your point is invalid.

first of all: on what basis are you claiming nox > kenobi at that time?

more importantly: it wouldn't stop there. sorry, but darth tyrannus > darth thanaton imo, overall. i might be able to admit thanaton > ROTS kenobi, but he does not completely dominate over kenobi. kenobi's saber skills outstrip thanaton's, but thanaton probably has better force feats.

I'm glad you mentioned that because (and this is NOT a problem confined solely to SWTOR) the way the EU often portrays the Force is downright sucky.

We've got Darth Stark there, Karpyshyn's dark side tentacles, Denning's dripping Force essence, etc.

Good God, when did it become so damn cartoony?

Who is arguing Thanaton>Dooku? And honestly, I would NOT consider Thanaton the superior of Kenobi, but for the purpose if this battle I'm not sure how Kenobi would defend against Thanaton's Sith Sorcery.

:v

The stuff I mentioned?

I'm not really seeing how Thanaton doesn't own Kenobi like he did Nox. How would Kenobi block Thanatons ritual attack?

hmm, i suppose i can agree, but without that little ritual, i'd say that they're about even.

Talzin's magicks are native to Dathomir and don't really bother me.

The fact is that Star Wars is science fantasy so goofy magic powers aren't out of place. It is cartoony but so what.

And if it were a random witch on a random planet wielding said random planet's eldritch powers, I'd be cool with that.

The Force is supposed to be a bit more subdued. Force Lightning is about as blatant as it gets in the films.

Also I guess I should add Thanatons other appearance:

YouTube video

Displays a neat lightning bubble ability here that would hinder most of the list from engaging him and survives all the power in Nox's body exploding wildly. Pretty neat.

i'd honestly agree with this, considering we have manipulate black holes luke, force storm by getting angry palpatine, and i drain planets but dont amount to such power in combat situations nihilus, and the same with vitiate most likely.

Subtlety is overrated. I love all the crazy lightning storms, rituals and wacky shit. Subdued is fine, but I like the OP Force powers a lot more. Just so much cooler.

In TOR theres nothing quite like popping a Force Storm and watching entire areas be decimated by your raw power. Its awesome.

And that shit is stupid.

Doesn't seem all that usable in combat.

see, i don't understand that. the force is infinite, why should it be subdued?

There is no hope for you, my son.

but i'll admit, i liked it back when it was like "HOLY KRAP LIGHTNING!" although there is no reason as to why they cant use those rituals and what not, since the force is infinite.
