Exar Kun vs. General Grievous.

Sorry it took a minute, had to personally upload it. Here:

I don't think this was the case with Nomi though, btw. It's an earlier comic and makes no distinction as what Nomi sliced through as something that is lightsaber-resistant. Moreover, she hasn't even learned to use the Force at this point.

While it's a good strength feat we need to know how much Bes'kar can endure physically. Being resistant to a Light-saber is being resistant to heat. Dunno the biggest Kinetic force that hit Bes'kar though.

Eh... a good point of reference would be Boba Fett's armor I would think, although I mostly have feats for him from his pre-Beskar days. He was still tanking missiles and having debris dropped on him, surviving head-first drops into wells, survived jetpacking through a Gorog head-on, and even tanked a strike from Vader head-on, without significant damage to his armor. He can also nonchalantly absorb blaster fire which has a fair bit of kinetic force behind it IIRC. And these are all pre-Beskar feats.

Kun would have to be pretty strong to bust through a wall of the stuff, I would imagine. He seems cool, I'm going to start reading up on him.

You're cool.

You're cool too.

I would hope Bobba's armor is of better consistency than the Death watch Mandos armor. I rewatched that clip of TCW Maul's fight with Pre, and right after that random female Mando dropped one of the other guys with a single blaster shot lol. Its supposed to withstand lightsaber blows, but a single shot from a small blaster dropped the guy? That's funny.

Yeah I know. And they had access to Beskar - their prison cells were made out of the stuff. Just TCW shitting on continuity as per usual.

Agreed. 👆

I don't see any difference in skill between the two, to be honest, and TCW Maul doesn't really have better physical showings. Well, he has similar strength showings but his durability and speed was best shown during TPM.

I don't see TPM Maul stomping Savage Opress, beating Season 4-5 TCW Obi-Wan that ease (which was very close to RotS Obi-Wan), holding his own against Sidious, fighting against Mace Windu while Aayla was helping, stomping Grievous (physically as well), speedblitzing MagnaGuards.

TPM Maul should be at the same level with Savage Opress & (or Asajj Ventress) tbh, still TPM Maul would win against them in a good fight though.

Le sigh

I don't see TPM Maul doing some of that either, partly because it's fan-fiction.

Nah, partly because you like TPM Maul for some specific reasons.

Still denying his power up is kind of stupid tbh, we already confirmed this ;

Skill level O.K But their is skill diference. Maul his great to make good an agressiv combos, like the ancient tiger method (pre-kung-fu one made by Kalarypayatt masters...) Exept that's this technic as been created to over power the ennemy and also use feints to place deadly punch in critical weak points.

Exar kuun is more opporutunist disturbing is foe and the strike hard.

He change light saberparametters more often than master chief found a new weapon on the battle field....

And where maul get the best pgysical abilities he got the light saber edge his weapon is perfect !!!!

The only way to escape Grievous in light saber combat is keeping in mind than he is not a force sensitive where Maul or kun can counter/block you even if you are behind.. That's more difficult for grievous..... The problem is than Dooku learn him how to focus on his opponent and don't lost him.. Keep him in his sight.

Not personal power? Sidious is gaining power from senator while allowing him to carry more power !! He gain power that's not skill strengh or etc.. And what does he did in the show? He gain the power to rule on mandalore !!! And before he gained influence !!! That's an othe rkind of power.

Original moovie dooku win over TPM maul, just by a slighltly advantage :
Makashi against lighk saber staff. Maul light saber staff is a goo target for one who learn the technic base on disarming or cuting the opponent light saber. It was one the primary goal of a makashi duelist !!!

It's like you give to somone a massif arsenal of force pwoer and give to the opponenent the ability to private his opponement from this arsenal !!!

😮

I actually agree a little with ILS on this (not his hate and butthurt of real canon though).

I don't see any significant difference in his physical stats. And his skill set in TPM era still seems better (probably because he's utilizing his full Saber skill with the Saber Staff).

It's like when the ROTS novel says Dooku is an even more powerful Sith Lord than he was a Jedi. I never took that to mean Sith Dooku is in a different league to Jedi Dooku. Just a modest all around improvement. Same with TCW/SOD Maul next to TPM Maul Imho. There's obviously a big difference in Tk, but everything else if say is a modest improvement tbh.

The only time his Physical stats seemed far superior was with his Monster legs. He stomped Opress with the aid of those legs which clearly would have given him much greater strength Imho.

I didn't realize that differentiating between two sources means you automatically hate one and love the other.....

You're going to honestly pretend you don't hate TCW after regular and recurring comments like this:

😬

So I automatically hate something because it's inconsistent?

^ Yeah clearly you're just differentiating between different mediums 😬
