Also ha at Han Solo being just a smuggler. He's anything but really.
That's my point, that context-less embarrassments aren't as embarrassing in context. Vitiate was also weakened, wounded and exhausted.

Not to mention, Sidious wasn't on a powerful dark side nexus, but when he is, even when dying, he can shrug off the crushing impact of a ton of machinery and disintegrate sabers, whereas Vitiate runs into one while on one.
Oh Neph was talking about Leia when she tipped Sidious bed over while Sidious was laying in it, after he had just goaded her into a fit of rage. The same Leia who casually ripped a cooling unit that weighed a ton from the ceiling, while on a DS nexus.

Vitiate got downed and died when he got stabbed, Sidious was going to use essence transfer to possess someone and would've succeeded were it not for the plot convenicnece of Empatojayos Brand.Totally congruent example 👆
1. Vitiate didn't die, he was using a host for his body.
2. Sidious didn't plan on being shot in the back. It's up to you to prove if you say so.
3. Plot convenience? Sounds like a very fanboyish thing to say. Vitiate would not have died had it not been for the plot convenience of the Hero of Tython! 😂
4. I sincerely hope English isn't your first language. LOL@congruent example. It's apparent you don't know the meaning of the word, or how it's supposed to be used.
Brand pretty much caught Sidious's spirit like a fly ball.
"Gotcha!"
"You can't hold me!"
"True. Good thing I've got help from Yoda, Anakin, and every dead jedi ever."
"Crap!"
"Now die with me."
Anyways, getting shot helped with his essence transfer technique. Or it simply failed to interrupt it, at least. Easier to move your spirit when it's not attached to a body, or something like that.
It's not like Sidious would've chosen to do differently had he not been shot.

Like Cart said, Sidious wanted to die anyway, and he wasn't on a powerful DS nexus at that point like Vitiate was when he ran into a saber. I pointed that out in my post. Missing the point is the norm for you, so it's ok.
Cart might make grammar errors. I do it all the time. But his grasp of context is far beyond yours.
What law school did you intend, BTW? I think someone may have lied to you.

And you're in no position to gauge anyone's grasp on context, especially when you're incredibly dumb.
Also don't worry about law school pumpkin, it's unlikely you'll get through college with a forest gump IQ.
He has sufficient precognition, sufficient tutaminis, and sufficient reflexes to stop anything he really wanted to stop. So he either didn't want to stop it or didn't care.
Look at what you created Gideon. We'd kill for at least one intelligent Sidious fanboy. Instead, you breaded an army of stupidity.

Yeah but he was also killed by a smuggler while Vitiate was fighting the most powerful Jedi alive.
Plus Leia's judo-throw was way more embarrassing, particularly since she stole a priceless holocron from him after doing it.
Sidious shows a decided lack of distress over being shot. Nowhere is he saying 'oh no, you shot me, my plans are ruined!' No, he just continues on with his plans like it never happened.
Vitiate dies in one of his man bodies, then returns back to his host.. So what?

Same difference. And I put him on ignore mainly because his posts are like novels but yes, the fanboyism was intense for someone attempting to appear objective. But for his faults, he seemed a tad more logical than S66, who just reeks of stupidity.
And? You've yet to prove Han's shooting him actually hindered Sidious at all. Brand is the only one there who actually did anything relevant, and even he had to die to do it.
1. The argument wasn't about hindrance. It was about Sidious' alleged intention to get shot. At least try to follow along without desperately attempting to change the variables.
2. Brand was already dying from Palpatine's initial blast of force lightning.
