Force user most dependent on a nexus

1. Nah you specifically said he can't resurrect himself without the aid of a nexus.

2. 🙄 In Star Wars, we call characters "immortal" who for, under most-to-all normal circumstances, they can't die. Sion is included in this list, obviously.

3. Ignoring half a dozen canonical statements due to a couple character statements and your opinions on the matter doesn't mean you have an argument, just a cluster**** of BS.

It's clearly not rooted in dark side nexuses since he has done it off dark side nexuses, and most of the times he has done it was, in fact, off dark side nexuses. 👆

Either you have a ton of evidence you just haven't posted or you're exaggerating.

Whee are these "half a dozen canonical statements" about Sion being unable to be killed anywhere in the galaxy? 'cuz I've seen one and it's open for interpretation.

Where are these examples of Sion reviving himself in non-dark side places?

Also the fact you completely ignore what the character says about his own powers is rather odd......

Some are from overlapping sources, but:

Darth Sion is described as an animate corpse:

The ancient Sith texts at Korriban are rife with paranormal tales of death-defying Sith Lords. But none ever so ardently clung to his broken body as the hate-filled, animate corpse Darth Sion.

---

Darth Sion resurrects himself on the battlefield against Jedi during the Great Sith War:

As a marauder for the Sith Empire during the Great Sith War, Sion flings himself at the Jedi, seeking death, but instead, he finds the opposite. Regularly surviving the frontline pandemonium, Sion acquires a pain tolerance that convinces him of his immortality. Inevitably, probability has its day and Sion is struck down.

Yet death does not come for Darth Sion, and each centimeter of his failing body comes alive with anguish, multiplying that infinitely distant point of pain one thousandfold until his brain threatens to collapse. Improbably Sion gets up. And as he locks eyes with his attacker, Sion lets all his anger for being killed—all the hatred clotting his heart—explode.

---

Darth Sion's technique was confirmed to be an act off immortality (again):

Sion finds that keeping his decomposing flesh tethered together with dark side energy is inexplicably painful, and requires endless concentration on the rage that festers inside him - but immortality is immortality.

---

Darth Sion was "killed" many times during the First Jedi Purge but rose again:

Sion embarks on a Jedi-assassination spree, "dying" many more times, but always ending more enemy lives.

---

Darth Sion is in a state of eternal pain, suggesting eternal immortality:

Darth Sion's body had been torn apart and knitted back together into a patchwork of mutilated flesh. This left him in eternal pain, his broken body held together only by his hatred and the power of the dark side.

---

As already shown, he's said to be, once again, immortal:

Perhaps the most rage-filled Sith Lord yet encountered, Darth Sion is a shattered mesh of flesh and bone. Sion is in constant pain, but his body is held together by will and fury. He is a true, immortal manifestation of the Dark Side of the Force.

---

Also, I'm not "ignoring what the character says," but rather consider it to be highly speculative and can easily be interpreted into meaning a dozen different things. While, in contrast, we have a rather definite and constant view that Sion can resurrect himself off nexuses (as shown through dying countless times on the battlefield and assassination attempts). Likewise, it's said that the "player" believes that Sion can "escape death" a "nearly infinite" amount of time in one source as well.

Hm, fair enough. If you could cite those quotes, I'd happily concede. Sorry, I just took what KOTOR 2 said and believed it. Apparently there was miscommunication somewhere but facts are facts.

KotORCG for the first four.

TCSWE for the fifth one.

Insider 88 for the final.

POB for the "nearly infinite."

There's also prolly stuff in TORE, and the prima guides too tbh.

All good my nigga. Sorry if I came off as aggressive, you seem pretty chill.

I used to post and debate here a long, long time ago but nowadays I just enjoy reading topics more than arguing them.

There are a few people still around that I remember. SW Legend, Neph, quanchi....

Okay I kinda only wish Neph was still around of those three but what can you do.

It's nice to meet you.

You can murder them.

Sounds mildly excessive.

Re: Force user most dependent on a nexus

Strange that Bane doesn't been mentioned in this thread.

Darth Maul in the basement of Quans mothers house.

I honestly don't get the Bane nexus jokes. Sure, he was on them a lot, but he wasn't dependent on them. Not as far as I remember it.

I can't remember a single big fight, in which he wasn't on a nexus, tbh.
Againdt Kas'im, againdt the Jedi on Tython, against Zannah on Ambria...

Surprised nobody has said Bane just to piss DMB off lol.

up

Ommin would die without a nexus. Vitiate is the biggest nexus whore, though.

Ommin, Vitiate, Bane, Vitiate, Vitiate, Zannah, Vitiate, Vitiate, Vitiate.
Maybe also Vitiate.

You forgot Vaylin and Arcann.

Wrong.

You are confusing dependability with choice.

It's hard to tell whether Vitiate just chooses to be on nexuses all the time or depends on them given that he's... on them all the time.
