But for real, the Encyclopedia does credit Revan's absorption and deflection of Nyriss' lightning as a demonstration of his raw Force strength. Bane has never displayed such power.
Nah, after the first 30 seconds the pain stops as the anus softens. And then its all aboard the Bane train!
Which encyclopedia? Also disagree, Bane has fantastic feats in more than just one area. Revan's tutaminis is great, but thats about it. Bane would take him in a TK battle. At the least, Revan's not going to be doing shit to Bane with the Force, making it a pure lightsaber fight.

Force strength is pretty much what determines one's telekinetic power. When Bane displays such Force strength, we can talk.
Your mastery of telekinesis is what determines how great you are. Just like every other Force power, your ability with the technique in question is the the deciding factor of how good you are with it. Are we to assume that everyone is just as good at all aspects of the Force as they demonstrate with a single one?

I'm not sure why you're mentioning other aspects of the Force when we're talking about the telekinetic aspect only.
You both [Intrepid & Nephthys] have a point.
Generally, I think it's a safe assumption that a powerful adept will be naturally gifted in the core applications of the Force: superhuman strength, speed, reflexes, telekinesis, telepathy, etc.
But, to Nephthys's point, there is a difference between power and skill. And if raw Force strength always determined telekinetic prowess, then Anakin's TK should eclipse Yoda's.

No, mastery refers to how well you can wield it in general. Including how much you can actually unleash.
What the ****? You're the one who brought up Revan using Tutaminis as proof that he's better at TK than Bane. 🙄
This point is ridiculous anyway since Revan is not more powerful than Bane.

Exactly.
