Drain disabled? Nox wins.

Nihilus tk stomps nox into another galaxy

Nihilus TK is ridiculous. I'd be willing to give him the win solely based on that... But I'm not sure. Nox is a powerhouse and able to withstand a lot of Force attacks.

A single example of Nihilus' ridiculous TK?

Um, holding the Ravager together whilst flying throughout the galaxy and doing other things simultaneously...?

Hyperbole from Visas. Ship was intact after his death and they still needed to explode it.

Nihilus put the ship together and held it together with the Force. Do you have any other explanation? That's what the game, KotoR II, wants us to think. While it's not determined why after his death the ship was still intact, this is a fact. It's not only Visas who says this, btw.

What saber feats does Nox have? Nihilus was giving the Exile's party trouble even after he was severely weakened.

She beat Khem Val while an acolyte a month or so into her training, with a training saber. Khem then literally punches through a wall, so he's pretty damn beastly. He's heavily force resistant so it was likely a saber duel. She also defeats a Sith Lord in a saber duel after he'd drained her of her force power, which indicates immense physical attributes and skill to make up for his huge force advatage. And descriptions indicate she's as skilled with a saber as she is with the Force. And Nox is VERY skilled with the Force.

He was able to defeat a group of acolytes with a training saber with absolutely no training whatsoever.
He defeated Khem Val (Force resistant) as a mere acolyte, regarded as a 'Jedi eater' and 'powerful foe to any Jedi or Sith who faced him'. Also, of the Sith he faced, only Tulak Hord was able to best him.
Defeated a Terantatek (Force resistant), again as a mere acolyte with a training saber.
Defeated an army of Trandoshan bodyguards (although not necessarily a saber feat only).
Defeats Darth Skotia as a mere apprentice in DK.
Defeats Lord Paladius without the Force.
Defeats several other Sith Lords.
Defeats a Jedi Strike Team.
Defeats Zash.

I liked how all those acolytes were already advanced enough to use lightning and Nox still somehow beats them with no training and a practice saber. Slightly implausible if you ask me, lol.

Yeah, but I like Darth Nox as a SW character, so I'm ok with it.

Incorrect. Read the below statements:

"Darth Nihilus' dark will held the vessel and its crew together."
―The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia

"Darth Nihilus, using only the dark side, holds the ship together from his command post on the bridge."
―Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Prima Guide

He also telekinetically lifted the ship from Malachor V, an extreme gravity vertex:

"The Ravager was hauled from the gravity well at Malachor V by its new master. He used it to escape imprisonment on Malachor V."
―Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic: The Sith Lords

One cannot forget just how much power Malachor V provides him. His TK is very strong but it is also replicated by TOR characters themselves. Darth Jadus being an obvious case.

The gravity vertex on Malachor during that time outstriped the nexus by miles. He did it on the surface, not in the lower levels of the planet.

EDIT: And Nihilus seemingly kept an entire fleet together, not just his flagship.

Good point.

Darth Nox
