Dooku, Maul and Vader run a gauntlet

* RotS Dooku
* SoD Maul
* RotJ Vader
* Both Canon and Legends feats apply

Setting: The Senate Rotunda

1. DoE Bane, Barsen'thor and Katarn
2. HoT, Wyyrlok and Durron
3. Mace, Jaina and Cade
4. FE Malgus, Ulic and Krayt Reborn
5. Novel Vitiate and Wrath II
6. Plagueis and Tenebrous

They clear

1 is a solid fight but they win. They might actually lose 2, but probably not for a majority. They scrape past 3, but they could also lose 4. Assuming they make it past 4, they're either down at 5 or definitely down at 6. Most likely 5.

Can you elaborate on 5?

Do you think Novel Vitiate can take Vader/Dooku combo while Maul fights Wrath II?

Vitiate could probably take Maul/Dooku while the Wrath holds off Vader.

Yeah, but I can see Dooku/Vader duo engaging Vitiate, as they are the most powerful ones on their team. And undoubtedly they will sense his power too.

At the same time I think Maul is sufficient to fight Wrath II.

Maybe, but it's not as if who they pick would be who they get.

Even so, Wrath II and Maul is basically an even split while Vitiate might get the better of Dooku in an early exchange of Force powers, which leaves him with the upper hand against Vader.

Well, tbh they might get what they are after as long as they fight smart, which all of three combatants from team 2 has shown.

Either way, Dooku rivals Novel Revan in the Force while Vader surpasses him. Not sure if Novel Vitiate has an advantage here, if at all.

Nah, Dooku doesn't rival Novel Revan. He also doesn't have much of a response to Vitiate's FLS.

A being as powerful as Dooku can block it with a saber, if only for a tiny bit.

Also if Vitiate choses to FLS Dooku, Vader throws a pod at him.

A Lightning Storm could well affect both, and Dooku's saber defense/physical strength will only last so long. He doesn't have a way to get out of it.

Tbh I'm not sold on the notion that it will stall them both. If Vitiate tries that he will need to divide his attention to two beings that are comparable/superior to Novel Revan. That will not end well for him imho.

Not to mention the setting is something that Vader will relish in given his TK prowess.

In short their combined Force power is enough to overpower him.

BTW I hear Dooku gets new juicy Force feats recently. Anyone can confirm?

Revan's Tutaminis is well above Dooku/Vader's Deflection/Tutaminis. Vitiate dominated Revan - yes, it was on a nexus, but Dooku and Vader wouldn't be faring as well even off-nexus, IMO.

Not sure. Vader barrier feats are extraordinary. And Dooku does not need to go tutaminis. Besides both have different strengths to Revan's like raw power or refinement.

The latter part is interesting, yet still, pure speculation, as you know. Hard for me to address that as you may or may not be correct.

Vader's Barrier, as I recall, has only repelled blaster bolts. I believe there was also a more recent feat where it's logical to assume he repelled a pretty solid explosion. Which is good, to be sure, but Revan redirected Nyriss's Lightning, and Vitiate destroyed Revan's Force defenses with his own FLS.

Dooku has no options against it.

Vader barrier feats are more than that, but Id have to check if you want.

Dooku blocks it with a saber for 2 seconds.

I'd also would like to reiterate my previous point. Vitiate would need to direct his attention to two beings in Novel Revan's league. While he can defeat one,engaging two might be beyond him. Not to mention Vader has more raw power and better TK at his disposal.

Vader having more raw power and TK than Vitiate? I doubt it. His TK feats are probably better, but not raw power.

And what would happen after those two seconds?

Not really. A FLS is large enough to cover multiple people - it's not a stretch to say it could cover two.

Krayt Reborn might be the breaker here.

Revan > Vader tbh.
