This like saying a Jedi has to go without eating to be considered strong.
Consume himself more than he already does? And it's not a certainty that a Dark Side master would be immune to his drain, even when his own Dark Side master wasn't. Or are you saying Traya isn't a master of the Dark Side?
Only on the TOR forum.
Ok first of all, I want to remind you that Im not debating about anything. Just pure assumptions since we got no proof on whether there is a defense against Nihilus' drain.
Yeah it was a joke though gameplay wise it was actually easier than most fights which was a disappointment for me.
Wow! Jedi eating food = Nihilus consuming? How is that even the same thing? Every organic being needs to eat but not every organic being needs to consume other people's essences to exist.
He just consumed his body. If he was triggered enough, he would consume his own force essence until he became complete nothingness. This is stated by Kreia not me. Also I never said a dark master could definitely survive the drain. I just said supreme dark lords like Sidious and Vitiate may have a chance to defend against Nihilus' devastating drain. Big difference 😉
The Withered Husk of Gideon would still be more than a match for any and all his would-be-competitors.

Well, I hardly care about the majority of people's opinions on these forums, but I expected more from the supposedly most knowledgable member on these boards.
You care enough about the majority enough to register and post here for the express purpose of "educating" them. Let's not be silly.

And he wonders why we take him less seriously the even LeGenD...

Right but she actually did put it up since it states the lightning tore through it. It only states she merely "tried" putting it up in a similar way as if you'd attacked me and I "tried" to defend myself but was overpowered. My defense wouldn't necessarily be weaker than normal just because it was unsuccessful.I do concede to the possibility that it was a hasty, lackluster shield, but theres no way to be definite. Regardless, the barrier was there and the novel does suggest Scourge and Meetra would be incinerated.
So, to quote myself:
Yet the barrier she threw up would have counted for nothing, Nyriss is described as putting all her energy into her final attack and this would have left her with nothing left to defend herself with - making her barriers easy to penetrate.
Now while this was not stated in the novel, it is the only logical conclusion to reach. If she had had her full barriers up, she would not have been incinerated, she would not have even been harmed. Because ultimately it would have been the equivalent of being attacked by a being of equal power. And an offense equal in power to a defense = stalemate.
This is reinforced by a similar incident in which Sidious had his Force Lightning, which he put all his energy into, redirected by Galen Marek, yet he emerged unscathed, if we ascribe to your logic he would have died like Marek.
Oh, and hi. 😛

Oh, they care, withered one. Feel free to exercise yourself if need be. Oh, and Neph too. This will be enjoyable to witness.
My son, do not embarrass yourself by attempting to bait a master baiter. Really, I am the master baiter: I practice regularly and achieve satisfaction in a most expedient fashion.
@ FreshestSlice
You really need to stop trying so hard to misunderstand what I say. 😘
Just justifying his placing.
One Ive never denied. Just said its not %100 like that.

Im not gonna argue about Nihilus consuming = Jedi eating if thats what you're going for. Thats just too obvious to debate.
Which is what happened in KotOR II, I doubt that it would be so easy to do, is all.
"Supreme" Dark Lords. Darth Nihilus is most supreme. 🤣
When did I ever say Nihilus wasn't supreme? seriously...
