How Powerful Is Ahsoka Now?

Also Bantha I know they used him to set up the future Inquisitors, I just..I dunno, guess would have liked to see more techniques from him.

Eh but I am excited that the GE Inquisitors are returning in this new canon.

No, I meant that some wouldn't want her to be *extremely* powerful, like giving Vader lots and lots of trouble, which I agree with. I was just asking how powerful they think she should be.

Are people really advocating for her to not be powerful? It seems most agree she should be powerful to a degree, it just depends to what degree that is.

Ahhh kk then.

Hmm, interesting question.

If her performance against General Grievous is anything to go by, she will hold her own against Vader for sure. TBH I'm expecting Ahsoka vs Vader to go down in that manner, I don't seriously believe they will actually make her at all a match for him.

But she will hold her own in a generous way.

As for how powerful. She is noted to be an above-average Padawan, but at the same time gets stomped by Offee... though she didn't have her second lightsaber.

I'm gonna go with what others have said and say Ventress level, in terms of skill and Force ability.

Which means she > most Jedi Council members tbh.

Yeah I'm thinking Ventress too. Which is fair.

But 👆 to everything else you said.

Meh, Ahsoka is a Jedi, and she quickly becomes focused as a you would expect from one. Though I'd agree in the respect that Ahsoka was on the defensive, she was responding rather than really fighting to win as Offee was.

Bariss definitely had the environmental advantage for sure, but I think the biggest reason is her lack of a second hand. Even Ventress was dependent on her second blade and Ahsoka appears to be too, her strength is visibly hampered for one.

At the same time though, there a points where it just looks like Offee is too fast for her.

But yeah I didn't mean stomp literally, just that she was handily defeated.

Yeah, I agree with that.

Offee also embarrassed Ventress in that episode. For whatever reason they jacked Offee way beyond what she had shown previously, such as when she and Ahsoka fought on the way to the medical station.

As to how powerful Ahsoka should be, I'd say pretty darn powerful. She was precocious as a youngling and then Padawan, and she was apprenticed to Anakin Skywalker (aka The Chosen One). She got crazy amounts of experience during the Clone Wars. How could someone with that pedigree not become a serious butt-kicker?

Barriss was under the control of parasites, so her performance in S2 against Ahsoka doesn't represent her actual ability.

“Ahsoka’s expulsion and trial shake her beliefs to the core, giving her a clearer understanding of the ways the Jedi Order has compromised its duty to the Force by serving the political needs of the Galactic Republic. When the Jedi Council admits its mistake and proposes reinstatement with a promotion to Jedi Knight, Ahsoka refuses the offer. Taught that attachment can bring ruin to a Jedi, Ahsoka leaves the only home she has ever known, thus fulfilling the prediction of her older self on Mortis that she faced a bleak future remaining at Anakin’s side.”

— Ultimate Star Wars, on Ahsoka leaving the Order.

So, she actually was going to be promoted to Jedi Knight. Shit.

I thought that was already known?

Was it?

Meh it was ambiguous, nice to get some clarity.

Has this book been released then?

I think it was released Wednesday.

About her becoming a Knight, but guess I don't remember. At any rate, it shouldn't come as big a shock anyway considering she was a main character and showed skill.

She's still 16. Promoting someone to Knight at that age is probably a record, lol.

Lol not to reign on your parade, but Jaden was a Knight at thirteen in old canon

Who's Jaden?
