Until Disney states otherwise Chee is the single highest authority in maintaining continuity and canon. As much as it may pain you Legend that is grossly above your own opinion in terms of authority on canon.
His responsibility is to maintain a database and ensure continuity in the lore. He doesn't get to decide power level of characters on his own.
I respect his opinion but it can be subjective just like those of other authors. For example: Luceno thinks that Plagueis would undermine Palpatine in a duel under fair circumstances. While possible, this is still an assumption on his part.
Also, ever heard of word "evidence"?
Originally posted by DarthAnt66 Vitiate is not god-level, lol. All these characters:
-The Ones
-Abeloth
-Luke Skywalker
-Palpatine (ROTS, ROTJ, & DE)
-Yoda (Yep, I said it)
-Darth Plagueis (Possibly?)
can beat him. And Caedus could come pretty close as well.
I don't know how you can consider Vitiate the strongest when Palpatine has so many accolades going for himself. Hate to ruin the threa-wait...no I would love too. So here is a link to the true Dark Lord of the Sith: http://www.killermovies.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=587671
It is funny that you do not pay attention to canon information at hand and it is easy to cast aside your silly statements:
Over 300 years ago, the great Jedi heroes Revan and Malak stumbled upon long-hidden Sith Empire's capital of Dromund Kaas, and its ruler - a mysterious, almost godlike avatar of the dark side.
The fact(s) that Vitiate overshadowed millions of Sith Lords and even kept the monstrosities such as Dread Masters subservient or loyal to him, should tell you something about him.
Also, this thread isn't about who is the strongest Sith Lord.
Finally, your list of potential superiors is laughable. The Father, Abeloth and Palpatine (DE) are the only Force-users in your list who are a match for Vitiate.
And yes, I am well-aware of all the hype surrounding Palpatine. Much of that hype stems from this character being a darling of G-canon lore. So it doesn't surprises me that Palpatine gets special treatment in EU content as well. Same is true for Yoda. Furthermore, Vitiate is a newcomer in the mythos so it remains to be seen how he will evaluated in the long run.
