What's Vader's real speed tier ?

I mean seriously. Without hyperboles...

Nephthys The Gr8est!!!!!!!!

It's

Spoiler:
over 9000.

Faster than Maul.

EWWW.

Vader is fast enough to dodge blaster bolts easily

DARTH POWER Senior Member

He's a fast as Old Ben. (However fast that is).

That's rather amusing. A speed level in question compared to a speed level unknown for clarification.

He's so fast that he traveled a huge distance from that cult temple in Vader and the Ninth Assassin back to his ship in a second.

There's body and then there's arm.

Body wise, he's certainly less acrobatic than many. In terms of his ability to swing a sword, though, he's still able to keep up with just about anyone, and faster than many.

"Faster than anyone but Yoda". 😎

Nope. Vader's still pretty acrobatic, tbh.

Can you actually give a single example? Yes, he can jump high and move fast. But his body simply cannot twist well.

FreshestSlice Eternal Commander

I meant being able to move well and fast. Not twisting. Those things still fall under acrobatics.

Vader's got speed, but agility is not his forte.

You guys did see that scan I posted where Vader jumps upwards over some guys causing him to shoot his friend right?

I think that is a good argument for both agility and speed.

He's on Obi-Wan's speed class, though he's not nearly as agile.

This is probably closest to the truth.

Of course the reason everyone's coming out with different answers here is because what Lucas intended in his Old Official Canon, and what the Old EU Legends portrays and what the New Official Canon will show are likely all completely different. Then it didn't help that Lucas went around clearly contradicting his own statements on the matter.

Personally I'm looking forward to his feats and showings in the New Disney Official Canon.

Vader isn't even a villain. He's the protag, yo. Like Ulic.
