Dread Masters vs. The Emperor's Hand.

😄

Nah but seriously even Styrak by himself was able to enslave/corrupt an entire cartel by himself, was considered an incredibly powerful master of the dark side, an "incomparable" sith alchemist, etc. Bestia single handedly crushed an entire slave rebellion while merely a sith apprentice, then underwent some cray cray ritual (all the dread masters got this) that gave them their so called, "unprecedented" power, and prolonged their lives for a millennium. Those 2 alone are insanely powerful, + the others, and I think they may be stronger.

They all sound like Vitiate lol.

That's really not *too* impressive for full sith. A One Sith, Kruhl, low enough to be considered *expendable* was used to make a planet submit.

Sith *should* be able to topple/take over large organizations easy.

Also, Styrak is incredibly powerful Sith Lord. Besides usual shit, he had developed such level of Force abilities that he could revive the dead and even shapeshift. Imagine.

Styrak gives the vibe of The Ones. He is so hard to kill that a 16 individual strike team is sent to eliminate him.

Its not like that, Styrak telepathically dominated every living being around him into submission, reducing them to drone status.

Ah, yea, that is more impressive!

We talking zombies, or...?

The whole concept of the dread masters turns star wars into black magic bullshit.

In the fight with him you kill his pet Kell Dragon then fight Styrak. After a while he gets pissed, reanimates his Dragon and it starts wrecking shit again.

Racist. Bet if it were white magic, you'd be cool with it.

white is right

Is Stryak more powerful than Vitiate? The latter was eliminated by a single being.

Not sure on this really, but the Dread Masters are pretty powerful in any sort of comparison. That alien shaman was draining them and with the fraction of stolen energy, turned around and Tk'd an Imperial soldier into a Rakata statue perhaps 15 feet tall and shattering it with the impact.

As far as the comparison is concerned, both are unnatural dark side practitioners, remarkably powerful in the ways of the Force. Sith Emperor's feat of keeping all 6 Dread Masters subservient or loyal, sheds new light on his abilities as well.

I think that Stryak is too hard to subdue in combat situations due to his incredible dark side abilities. It makes sense to take him out with large numbers.

SW was using black magic bullshit since DE. That's nothing new.

Dark Empire and Tales of the Jedi. They were early EU, and the authors like their magic BS, even though it really wasn't how the force was shown in the movies.

I will say that the Prequel Trilogies was good for significantly decreasing the amount of magic BS.... for awhile. I guess enough years have past that people are escalating again.

I thought the Hands were considered to be "another layer" above the Dark Council, according to the few that even knew of their existence.

Politically, not power wise. They acted by finding an agent to do work for them against a councilor.

Or at least, I *hope* not. It'd be really dumb if they did, "Oh, and there's yet more more powerful than seen before sith, who managed to get so without going through the sith-eat-sith competition of the councilors." Especially considering they needed others to do their dirty work.

Krayt's Hands >>>>>>>>>>> Vitiate's.

Agreed.

Just for the purpose and habit of feeling to counter everything you say, even if I agree, here's my two cents:

Revive from the dead: So could Cade...I assume you are putting Cade then on that level?
Shapeshift: So could Zam Wessel...lol jk, that's impressive.

Anyway, Dread Monsters stomp.

Kinda looks like cherry picking to me. Zam Wessel didn't shape shift using the Force. In fact, very few people have, so the ability requires either a decent amount of power and/or esoteric knowledge outside of the mainstream. Same with revival. I mean, if I want to be stupid, my Sith Inquisitor can use Reanimation, but that ignores context.

Looks like I found someone who doesn't understand the meaning of "jk" 😖mart:

What I said:

Assuming your unfamilar with Social Media, jk stands for joking...for I was joking off countering the Dread Master's ability with Zam Wessel...it seems like we learn something everyday eh? 😄

Around here it means "Jedi Knight" bro.

The more you know.

Despite your undisguised hatred for Vitiate, Our New Lord and Savior, the Coming-Again of the Epic Dark Side Spirit that was Adas, that was Ragnos, that was Kun, that will be Bane and Barriss Offee, etc. etc. amen, you're starting to become a likable member of this forum.
