Is Revan an Ancient Sith/Jedi?

Started by DarthAnt662 pages

Just because the Jedi Council were powerless to stop the freezing of the senate doesn't mean anything. 😬

No accolades of Kun crown him king of the ancients since the creation of SWTOR, Revan's best incarnations.
And nah, Revan wouldn't be regarded as "ancient" if we are discussing Exar Kun, which applies up to his time.

Nope, Drew specifically said he personally studied Leland Chee's holocron entry for Darth Nihilus, which would have higher canon authority that sitting through Kreia's subtle wanks on KotOR 2. 👆

@Ant - Kun being above the Council's a fairly impressive accolade.

And I'm aware Revan isn't an ancient, lol, I'm saying Kun > ancients puts him around Revan's level at least, so I find it hard to claim that Revan is demonstrably more powerful than Kun by a really noticeable margin.

What does Karpyshyn studying Leland's holocron entry for Nihilus have to do with anything? He still clearly didn't know what he was talking about, lol, and "command of the Force" can refer to mastery as much as power. And Kreia's wanking of the ancient Sith is something Avellone put in there, although we do know how much Avellone wanks them.

Not sure why you bring up this argument when you actually claim that you don't even believe it, lol.

Name a SINGLE thing Nihilus is known for besides draining planets. (which isn't even a real demonstration of his own power, he's a wound in the force that everyone apparently agrees only has limitations of OTHER wounds in the force)

I guarantee, I'll be waiting until someone comes up with a single feat.

What Revan has done sith his "rebirth" puts him above Kun, whether slightly or by miles.

Lol.

I'm still waiting.

TK, man.

You know, he has a host of feats in KotOR II, whether they be mentioned or actually shown - like Stunning the Exile's party with a raised hand. lol

There's also that he was able to dominate peoples minds with his mere presence alone, legions of which were Sith iirc. Not sure if they (the sith) were dominated though, but it wouldn't surprise me.

None of those things were really impressive though, tbh.

Bravo for naming feats, though. (Claps)

lol You asked us to name a feat and now you mock people for carrying out your request.

And how are those feats unimpressive?

Which legions? I'm pretty sure the guys on his ship were just corrupted, and the guys on Dxun/Onderon were just loyal to him, they seemed to have pretty independent thoughts.

He lifted a ****ing capital ship with TK you goon. And held it together through hyperspace.

Theres a ton of Sith on the Ravager and attacking Telos at the end.

@Nephthys - Yeah, the ship crew seemed just corrupted from his presence, like the Prima guide claims. The only thing Ant's respect thread has on Nihilus for TP is giving Visas the Vision, and I generally trust Ant to have all relevant/notable/hype-worthy quotes in his threads.

We're getting pretty off-topic from the actual thread, though. Revan is ancient by the time of the Clone Wars, but he's generally not defined as an ancient Sith Lord, probably because of his lack of affiliation with him (he was associated with Vitiate, but given the latter's longevity, it is understandable as to why some people don't really consider him "an Ancient Sith", though his birth date certainly suggests it.

Holy Shit, I forgot about that :/

The Ravager is literally a piece of metal held together by Nihilus TK.

I need to replay KOTOR II.

Maybe it's because I restored all the deleted content?

I'm sorry, I laughed pretty hard at that.

Ancient Sith were initially defined from the GAOTS comics. That is, Sadow would have been the last.

Nadd's confirmed to be among them, though.

God, my debate game is off-point, I need to sleep more
