Hello Selenial. I can reply directly to your response to me in the Swtor forums if that's ok with you:

Also, can you link that Neph guy to this post....Surik has severed people from the force on purpose, she severed Darth Traya from the force. We know this because Jedi master Zez Kai-Ell said that the only way to break a force bond was to turn away or be cut from the force, it is why the Jedi attempted to sever Surik from the force. Now, Surik is described as severing the Force bond and the Hand of Traya at the same time, which means she had to have severed Surik from the force (given that her own force energies remained)
Which explains why she could barely levitate three lightsabers, she only had the powers of Malachor to draw on, not her own.
Isn't this mere supposition on your part? It's a much simpler explanation that the Force Bond simply continued to exist up until Traya's death, which was what severed it. Traya had obviously lied about the Force Bond being fatal in the case of her death considering every Jedi Master reacts to that info with "wtf that sounds dumb".
And Zez Kai-Ell specifically says that he's not particularly knowledgeable about Force Bonds and that he doesn't know how exactly to sever one. HOWever, he also says that to break one "your feelings would have to change, or one of you would have to die". In the Exile's case both apply to her bond with Kreia. If it is stated that Surik severed the Force Bond by cutting off Traya's hand, then that the much more simple explanation is that that action met the first requirement and was such an act of violence against the nature of a Force Bond that it was severed.
Also, "barely levitating three lightsabers?" Even levitating and fighting with one lightsaber is a extremely masterful display of telekinetic control. Fighting with 3 at once is an astounding feat of mental coordination. Particularly since she'd just had her freaking hand cut off. 😆

It doesn't have to be. Plenty of characters have senesced nexi from orbit. If Vitiate is as powerful as you say, he should be able to tap into it. The fact that he can posse people across the galaxy, still in said space station, doesn't make me doubt that he could tap into the nexus miles below him.
And plenty of people have sensed things across the galaxy, that doesn't mean anything. Sensing something isn't the same as tapping into a thing. If a nexus empowers one by the area being heavily powerful in the darkside, then it only makes sense that if you're outside the area, you cannot get boosted by it.
