Dark Reaper?

Dark Reaper?

Having never played the game it's featured in?

Figure one of you could be kind of enough to link me to clips of its feats?

Kind of curious about shit like that drain and destruction of that Kashyyyk moon forest :hmm

That and scenes where its active and Anakin is shown resisting its effects

I'm aware of how he does it (something about drawing from the Force in nature around him, right?), just curious how it looks for context sake :hmm

I've played it, I actually have it lying around somewhere.

Anakin's fight against the Reaper:

Harvester destroying a Forest

Here's a quote on Anakin...

"Anyone who comes near will be killed instantly. I'm the only one immune."

What happened to the Kashyyk moon.

Draining hundreds/thousands of Jedi during the Great Sith War.

You guys think Anakin was able to re-teach a good chunk of the Order this tech?

Well Mace already seemed to know about it, I would assume the Jedi went over their history when teaching so...pretty sure the Dark Reaper was covered.

PT = Immune to drain.

What now, KOTOR II fanboys? 😱

Everyone can beat Nihilus now

Pwned!

Though lets not go saying all the PT Jedi can resist draining because as Anakin said, he was the only one immune, anyone else would instantly die.

Plus if it was something that they could do normally, Anakin wouldn't have had to speak to Ulic.

All I'm saying is that as part of Jedi studying, they would go over their Order's history. So....pretty sure this would include everything up to that point.

Figure you could directly link me to the times relevant shit occurs in these videos? :hmm

Well, the first one anyway, already watched the second.

Not bad :hmm

Wookiepedia said it took out half the forests on the moon, any quote corroborating that?

Granted, I imagine the thing will probably still want to rely on powerscaling (super weapon, would hardly be a worthy war asset if a given capital ship outgunned it and produced far more energy) even then given the moons around Kashyyyk aren't incredibly large :hmm

Well Anakin said that's all there was left of the forests, so...I don't think it just took out half but all of them.

There is also the quote that during the Great Sith War, no army could stand against the Dark Reaper. The Harvestar is what powers it, which drains the living Force so take from that what you will.

I believe you, but figure either you or merchant could link me to the quote?

That said, impressive regardless if it took out the whole moon's forest covered surface.

Which certainly helps if powerscaling ends up being required anyway :hmm

Well the quote is just this.

"This is all that's left of the Kashyyyk moon."

You also have Obi-Wan saying there's been similar hits on other worlds too.

I believe you, would just like to watch the lines be said myself

Assuming its not too much of a bother to link me then via YouTube anyway :hmm

Thanks

Interesting to note?

We're told Ulic taught the Great Sith War era Jedi how to do what Anakin does

Which, as far as I can tell, is something of a benign force drain that only targets the living force around you?

While no one is specified?

It's a pretty safe bet the more powerful Jedi like Thon and Nomi were instrumental in taking down the Reaper with this technique.

Other candidates that are hardly famous likely exist which function as powerscaling fodder too I imagine. :hmm

Doubtful, Ulic states that learning this technique would make one more prone to the dark side.

One thing however I would like to note/ask, because I see many stating this. So I wanna see what proof there is.

But exactly how is the Dark Reaper's Drain different from Sith Triumvirate?

Both drain The Force from Force Beings and the surrounding life do they not?

So am I missing something with this? Or what?

The only difference as I see it, is that one is technology which is powered by the darkside and the other is used by darkside Force Users..

Man, my best friend and I must have dumped hundreds of hours into that shitty game. So good.

Cool ass boss fight too. That Duel of Fates music blaring in the background while Ulic monologues to you.

So the Dark Reaper spontaneously self destructed?

Ulic taught some Jedi how to take it down, so obviously this risk wasn't worth considering, especially given the circumstance

Who else could really do it?

Ulic's kind of deaf to the Force due to Nomi at this point

Who better than the ****er that sealed world razing dark side energy in a lake and his protege, the future grand master of the order, the one who led the wall of light, to learn how to resist and take this thing down?

Odan Urr is dead, Vodo-Siosk Baas is dead... named character wise?

We've kind of exhausted named characters worth a shit in terms of raw power

And, believe me, I'm more than willing to buy these 2 taking it down alone. Thon's got raw power enough in spades even ignoring Nomi.

That said, kind of figuring there's more than just them given how non-specific the narration of the conflict was.
