Ranking Tenebrous

This conversation comes up all the goddamn time here and at ComicVine. Tenebrous has exactly two official appearances: in Darth Plagueis and "The Tenebrous Way." Some people think he's a weak feeb, others think he's among the top 5 Sith of all time.

How powerful of a Sith Lord is Tenebrous? Discuss.

Tene is certainly a top 10 Sith, tbh.

Definitely not top ten. Probably top twenty though.

Top 10.

None of his feats were particularly impressive.

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt and say that via powerscaling it'd be weird if he wasn't at least above Dooku level. But he doesn't really have much of leg to stand on in that assertion other than the general idea that he should be close to Plagueis. This board is pretty hard on giving unknowns the benefit of the doubt based on assumptions, for good reasons.

Above Vader and below Plagueis I would say.

LAL @ above Vader.

He's probably the smartest at least in terms of IQ

RO2 Sith are hard to rank in general.

Well I mean, obviously a ways better than Bane and Zannah.

Better than Bane and Zannah for sure

Dooku level seems right imo, as in would probably beat Dooku in a good fight, giving him the benefit of the doubt what with lack of exposure and all.

Tenebrous is really badass, tbh. Being where he stands in the Banite Line alone is testament to his power.

It's hard to say. We have to scale him off of non-peak Plagueis, and Plagueis off of non-peak Sidious.

He's certainly a very *knowledgeable* Sith, and would certainly have a lot of power too, but ranking his specifically is tricky. His best area in the force was his foresight, which is traditionally kinda hard to rank power-wise.

Also, his focus on Science is somewhat unusual. Part of what made him formidable was, unusually, not-force-related.

'Brous has some pretty good barrier and TK showings, at least.

Who has him in the top 5, lol?

Somewhere between Dooku and Vader IMO

No one.
