Hero of Tython vs. Darth Zannah and Luminara Unduli

Two Soresu masters versus Ancient Jedi hero

Don't know if HoT can handle two duelist of this caliber, but Zannah's illusions are definitely not helping her here.

Luminara will be basically a non-factor and I think that the Hero can resist Zannah's mental assault. But I'm unsure about HoT vs Zannah straight-up.

Keep in mind that Zannah's mental assault, whether or not it works completely, may at least lock the Hero down long enough for Luminara to kill him.

Not sure how Luminara's a 'non factor', her mastery of Soresu was compared to Dooku's mastery of Makashi. She isn't getting one shot or killed any faster than Zannah.

Are you seriously trying to claim Luminara=Zannah? :/

I never made that claim. As a swordsman probably but not by much, and obviously not as a force user,

Good because that wouldn't make much sense.

Not sure her illusions would work on him either, given that he's never indicated fear of any sort.

Assuming Luminara can survive that long. I'm inclined to suggest the Hero would one-shot her with the Force.

^ You might be right about that one.

IDK. He isn't one shotting her in sabers, but his force abilities can likely do the job. Zannah isn't lasting long against him solo.

As for the mental assault, the Hero could resist Vitiate's telepathy, which is obviously a massive indication of mental strength. And she could dominate Tol Braga's mind, which was exceedingly powerful as well. Lastly she resisted Sel Makor's influence in the Dark Heart, the apex of its power and a dark place so powerful Jedi, Sith and Voss Mystics go insane just by being near it and iirc the Hero never bothered to perform the ritual to protect her from it's effects. Sel Makor is a being powerful enough to be called a threat to all existence.

The Hero likely has the greatest mental defense in the mythos imo. But I still don't think it would be easy for them to resist Zannah's attack.

Yeah, but unless the hero has some stated fear, those mental resistance feats you listed kind of render her sorcery void. There is no sense presupposing he is scared of something for Zannah to exploit. Hero takes this then.

Set Harth and Sarro Xaj didn't have any stated fears either, that didn't help them very much though.

Except that Neph listed mental resistant feats that put Hero kind of above Zannah's reach. 👆

Yeah, it's more than just fears. Bane described it as being immensely painful as well.

Also I'd imagine the Hero would possess some lingering effects from their time under Vitiate's control as well as their defeat by him.

I do think the Hero can resist it though.

And Bane also has amazing mental feats. He still struggled with Zannah's illusions though.

Except that Bane has stated daddy issues, and Hero has none whatsoever 👆. Zannah's influence over Xaj and Harth is more of a plot device, and unless there is a stated fear by an opponent then they may or may not work. Her usage of illusions doesn't seem to veer into the realm of Kun's or Krayt's i,e using the force to trick rather than play on fear. If they did then you'd have a point.
