Jedi vs Sith, I believe, outlines Force Lightning as an advance skill. TOR can't just override that. I also doubt the average Sith would have trouble with cattle.
Who says Jedi vs Sith is a more reliable source? You?
Also I'd like a quote for that.
Also even if it is a more reliable source what says that average force lightning can do what you claim?
Bantha's are a fair bit bigger then our type of cattle so don't try to undersell them.

"Force Lightning causes excruciating pain as it weakens an individual's life, and is nearly impossible to deflect."-Jedi vs Sith
I'm sure the average Sith has a nearly unblockable attacks that weakens one's life, and I'm sure a pack animal will be fine.
"A fire ignited in her eyes and her body went rigid as Plagueis began to trickle lightning into her. Her limbs trembled and her blood began to boil. Her hands grew hot and were close to being set aflame when he finally felt the light go out of her and she crumpled in his grasp."- Darth Plagueis
Obviously a powerful Sith Lord, among the most power, but given the absolute lack of effort on his part, and the fact that it was not noticeable, I doubt it's out of the possibilities of anyone who can use Lightning. He also speaks of the strength required to summon Lightning which is not what I'd describe as average.
I'll continue to look for how widespread the power is, but it's obviously a powerful one if it can set people and forests on fire. Now, I would like you to present evidence that a bantha can defend against it in anyway.
While that may be true, the lightning that ultimately killed the orbalisks was also powerful enough to leave the Orbalisk's shells blackened and brittle and disintegrate people. Clearly ROT Bane doesn't have a particular weakness against lightning compared to other characters just in the same way that Vader doesn't, and it would take really high tier lightning to exploit that vulnerability. Not saying Vitiate's lightning would be insufficient, just saying the vast majority of lightning wielders among the Sith would find little to no success.

It's not like TOR says most Sith can use Lightning either, though I'll admit I mixed up my sources."Force Lightning causes excruciating pain as it weakens an individual's life, and is nearly impossible to deflect."-Jedi vs Sith

Love the hypocrisy here considering all your talk of how the TFU video game is just as usable as the TFU novel. xD
Quote where Plagueis claims you need to be particularly strong to use lightning?
I can't defend a bantha until I know how powerful said lightning would be. We know that SOME lightning can set people and forests on fire but we don't know what weaker lightning would do.
An example of weak Force Lighting I guess would be Nightsister Migella, only real example I could think of and it was powerful enough to temporarily bring Maul to his knees when he was in mid-attack.
I guess a Non-Force User would have been fried by that attack. Although it's noted she was one of the more powerful Nightsisters, so not sure if you're just looking for someone like a Force Adept, but there's an example.

Now, unless you know of a bantha that utilizes the Force to a great degree or has a lightsaber that it's particularly adept with, you can stop anytime now.
