Which period of the galactic history is the golden era for the Sith?

What you just described was the equivalent of "nothing really". He hasn't distinguished himself from any other mediocre sith lord.

... yea, not sure how that stuff, especially the dish-feat, is supposed to be 'mediocre' ^^;;

So he joined with another imperial knight to move the dish. That's wonderful.

@Q99

That feat is not indicative of potential of one individual, useless to cite.

Do you think that Vitiate instantly "wtfpwning" Dooku is ridiculous?

Do you recall Darth Sidious's treatment of Count Dooku? Also, Darth Sidious's combat performance against duo of Darth Maul and Savage Opress versus Count Dooku's combat performance against duo of Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress?

Believe whatever you want to but Emperor Vitiate is more likely to WTFpwn Count Dooku then otherwise. All of those flashy feats of Count Dooku will not benefit him because Emperor Vitiate doesn't have soft corner for Count Dooku like Jedi Master Yoda had and the former is powerful enough to give Darth Sidious's treatment to Count Dooku with ease.

Gravid destroyed about half of the knowledge of his time. And having half the knowledge left is still a pretty ****ing immense amount of knowledge, because even at the order's first Dark Lord, Bane, they already had the knowledge of four legendary Sith Lords and a library full of Sith knowledge. With half of the pre-Gravid knowledge, plus the growth in knowledge in the centuries after Gravid's death, you get a pretty immense amount of knowledge. Plagueis had a huge ass ****ing library of Sith knowledge.

Here:

Sadly he could glean only so much from the texts, crystals, and holocrons stored in the library. Crucial knowledge had been lost during the brief mastery of Darth Gravid, and many of the most important elements of Sith training since had been passed from Masters to apprentices in sessions that had been left unrecorded. More to the point, Darth Tenebrous had had very little to say regarding death. (Taken from Star Wars: Darth Plagueis)

I accept your concession in advance.

they still had a ****ton of knowledge even with Gravid's twerking, and they had several centuries since then to get more knowledge. Hell in the first two decades of the Rule of Two, the order managed to attain the holocrons of four legendary Sith Lords, and a Library full of information. The Sith had centuries after Gravid. Are you seriously trying to make the argument that the Banite Sith are not very powerful, or that they are ill-trained?

The gap from Zannah to Tenebrous is a vast one, we have no idea how strong the Banite Sith are regardless of Gravid's mishap.

You do realize half of that feat is still really impressive, don't you? This was a huge object. It's a good feat for *both* of them. And he was the stronger of the two involved.

Not all that many masters have TK that strong.

Yeah, thats a great feat.

My question is- if you think any mediocre sith can do that, who do you consider 'mediocre'??

It would be mediocre for a TOR Sith. excellent

Marka Ragnos solos every Sith era.
Observe a fraction of his power:

Busts planets with ease on a day off:

Casually destroys a galaxy:

Not even Luke can stand against his power:

Defeats Bill Nye, Billy Mays, and Galactus:

How the **** did he beat Bill Nye?

I thought OxiClean could kill anything. I guess he is above anything.

With that power, and then Bill Nye, this is the greatest feat in the mythos.

Hah, I remember Jedi masters cutting down rank-and-file TOR sith left and right during the coruscant assault 😉

If Wredd was in TOR, he might or might not be Dark Council, but he'd at least be one of the people gunning for a slot.

Wredd would get manhandled if he were TOR Sith

Yeeea, I don't see many TOR sith wiith TK like that. Nor is he a slouch in sabers.

You do realize the wide majority of TOR Sith are chumps, right, and only a small minority are powerful lords? With Wredd much more resembling the latter than the former.

Wredd does not resemble one of the powerful sith lords. His only claim to fame was a combined tk. And his saber prowess is inconclusive since he's wielded it against an imperial knight whose skill is even more unknown.

A very big TK feat. Grab 5 random sith and I doubt they could do the same.

And his normal TK was pretty good too- wrapping a bunch of metal struts around Ania shows a lot of casual control.

And his saber prowess is inconclusive since he's wielded it against an imperial knight whose skill is even more unknown.

He's wielded it against said Knight (Said Knight having also fought Darth Luft, who was saw casually-pwned two knight initiates), and the Knight's master, and a few other sith.

Notably, Imperial Knights are a small organization that only gives the title Imperial Knight to people effectively master level to begin with.

My question is, just what is your standard of 'mediocre' if it somehow includes that? Mediocre compared to whom? Mediocre compared to Malgus? To stronger dark council members? That's not really what mediocre means. Or to compare to other sith lords, where I don't think he would be mediocre.
