3. I personally think Vader is definitely Bane's superior. As for the rest, perhaps or perhaps not, but that's not really my argument.
4. lol. One could say the same thing about Bane to you.
Nah. Marek is going to curbstomp him via the Force.
1. And even if he were generating 1/12th of the energy it would still be above what Galen did. Wait, he was? Oh yeeeeeah... 😉
2. Mareks feats indicate he's much more powerful than Vader as well. But we know he isn't. So lets clarify things. Do you think Marek would stomp... Dooku? Maul? Talzin? Vastor? Windu? Savage? Anakin? Plagueis? Because his feats are way above theirs too. As well as a number of top tier Jedi and Sith I could mention.
3. Your argument is that Marek can stomp Bane. I am pointing out the numerous opponents Marek fought who he did not stomp who are less powerful than Bane. Do you disagree?
4. One could, though I would of course ask that person to back it up with an argument like I do.
Nah, Bane is going to curbstomp him via lightsabers.

1. It was a ritual, he wasn't actually generating such potency. If he were, it would be a different story. But rituals aren't reflective of a person's power.
2. Problem is, we know Vader can hold his own against Marek because they've actually fought and Vader's actually done so. Bane hasn't.
3. Like I told you, maybe those guys are really just that good and Bane isn't as good as you think he is. 😬
4. You actually haven't presented such an argument.
😂

1. Really? That hasn't been your stance when it was Palpatine and Plagueis doing the ritual. Could this be... DOUBLE STANDARDS!????
2. Way to blow off my question bro. Again: Do you apply this stance of Galen Marek dominance to PT era characters too, or do you just wanna shit on Bane? Dooku through Plagueis haven't shown they can hang with Marek either. Does he stomp them?
3. Theres no indication that they're just that good. Their feats are well below his even in the same works. And yet, the ownage, it is absent. Hmmm. 😉
4. Yes, I did. That you refuse to accept it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. So lets hear your argument for Bane not being that great. According to the writer of the Bane books he's among the most powerful individuals in the mythos. You chose to listen to those kinds of statements, don't you? Also, dodging the question again? Tut tut.

1. Kindly direct me to where I've said as much.
2. I think Marek would dominate quite a few PT characters, bro.
3. Yes, much like Malgus and his tussle with a random Forceless mook by the name of Jace Malcom?
4. Nah. Bane being a lot weaker than Marek doesn't mean he's a weak feeb or that he's not one of the most powerful Force users ever.

1. Hell no. But we both know you've brought it up and in versus threads to boot.
2. Such as? I'm trying to establish your position on his level.
3. You mean how Malgus Force pwned him in a direct confrontation? And how Malcom was only relevant when he shoulder checked him out of nowhere?
4. You seem to think theres a much more significant gap between levels than there actually is.

1. Nowhere have I credited Plagueis or Palpatine's ritual w/ the Force as a product of their non-ritualized powers.
2. Would require some serious pondering and review of their feats/accolades.
3. Yes, Malgus sure pwned him by discharging lightning that Malcom tanked and then eating Malcom's thermal detonator.
4. Maybe.
Marek is hardly solidly above Vader.
And Bane is well above Vader in terms of lightsabers, surely.

1. You ****in' liar. Either that or you're finally going senile, lol.
2. How much pondering did you put into Bane's review? Because Bane's feats and accolades are superior to any of the ones I mentioned barring Plagueis.
3. Malcom was wearing insulated armor. And Malcoms thermal detonator barely brought him to his knees.
4. So your hierarchy is:
Sidious
Marek
Vader
Bane?
Yeah man, seems legit. 👆
Originally posted by Lord Starkall those characters levels are all over the place
Marek takes this.
Revan, Vader, Bane, and Malgus are all around the same level. Marek has shown he is solidly above that calibre. Won't be a stomp by any means, but he does win imo.
Bane>Vader>Revan>Malgus and the gap between the lowest one and the highest one is quite large

1. Should be a simple matter, then, for you to locate and produce such statements. I honestly don't recall any.
2. lol
3. Proof the armor was insulated? Still doesn't sound like pwnage, bro.
4. Agreed.

1. Its been way too long since you actively participated in these threads. I'm not hunting down a quote from a year old thread just to prove a point.
2. Its true and you know it.
3. Theres a picture and description of the exact Havoc Squad armor Malcom was wearing in Swtore and it has an indication that it comes with an insulated body glove that also protects against extreme heat. We know from The Third Lesson that Malgus' lightning is potent enough to burn through a powerful Jedi's torso after overwhelming his lightsaber defense.
4. Agreed with sarcasm included, I win. Bee-atch.
