Krayt's Sith Empire vs. The Galactic Empire.

"Barely did anything." lololololol

It didn't harm Sidious 'cause he's that good.

Don't mind Neph, he's silly when he's butthurt.

He's always silly. 😐

While that was impressive, I don't think it's quite the same thing as stopping an amulet blast that so far, has torn through everything it touched.

The blast didn't even hit Kota and the gang, when I pretty certain they're in the same damn room.

His butt is hurt because of your sexual treatment, Temp. Be careful with him.

It really is not as impressive as an amulet blast.

See, even Beefy thinks it was impressive, even though we disagree on its placement next to Kun's blasts.

Anyway, the blast caused visible damage to the Death Star and disintegrated stormtroopers as I recall.

Kun's amulet blasts have done nothing that I recall that puts them any order of magnitudes higher.

So I don't see them KO'ing Sidious.

And yet we see the room afterwards and not much is damaged. The floor is fine if a bit sooty, Palps throne is untouched, the ceiling and 'windows' aren't harmed etc. At best it blew up a control panel or whatever.

The point about the chair and Kota and others is a legitimate one, whereas the Sith Amulets tear a hole through the Sith Temple as well as the Sith Wyrm. Nothing suggests Sidious can defend against it. What he did against Starkiller was a close replication of the end of his fight with Yoda.

Sure it did, Neph. Sure it did.

I'm looking at the scene right now and theres barely any wreckage at all. Nothing was damaged by the blast.

Wasn't Kun amped by that Massassi Temple when that happened, mikemeer?

The blast causes visible damage to the Death Star, a sophisticated military installation intended to resist full scale naval assaults. Its replacement shrugged off a goddamn Super Star Destroyer.

It disintegrated stormtroopers as well. I don't see Kun's amulets being more impressive than all that.

Where did it disintegrate stormtroopers? I see from a distance it made some damage to the death star.

Did it?

Edit: A quick check of the novel says "no."

The novel says the explosion tore stormtroopers to shreds, my bad.

Anyone have anything comparable to add from Kun?

Btw for reference points on Krayt, we've got him compared to:

Anakin Skywalker
Obi-wan Kenobi
A shipload of Vong
Abeloth (and Luke's opinion of said fight)
A quartet of Imperial Knights
KotoR Jedi Master Celeste Morne (who fought Vader)
Hundred Year Darkness Sith Karness Muur possessing Morne (Vader felt that if he let Muur possess *him*, he could beat Sidious, but would merely find himself subserviant to Muur)
Cade Skywalker on multiple occasions (and Cade, in turn, has a huge force user victory count, duels against probably 7-8 other named force users with feats of their own, and plenty of big force feats)
Wyyrlok and thus by extension Darth Andeddu, feared Sith sorcerer of the old Empire only beaten in his own time by gang-up, and outmatched in his own speciality by the One Sith.

That's the points of comparison we've got.

Just left Legacy issue 8, where we see flashbacks of Krayt's laughably easy coup and further details of his brawl with the Knights. Still not putting them above Sidious laying waste to the Jedi trio in ROTS. At this point, I've seen nothing that remotely suggests he could take on Sidious with any hope of winning.

The coup against the Empire isn't the impressive part. A decade before, it was the Alliance that held sway. Getting them was the bigger deal.

And of course, you're at the part with armored Krayt 🙂
