[Discussion Thread] How powerful is Darth Plagueis?

Started by XSUPREMEXSKILLZ6 pages

I an adderull'd yesterday 🙂🙂🙂

Don't see how Plagueis could possibly be considered beneath Vader, when Luceno himself stated that Plagueis could have defeated TPM Palpatine in a lightsaber duel, and by the end of the novel he'd become practically an immortal being.

On the other hand, I wouldn't put him above Yoda. Palpatine is suggested to have become stronger than his master by the death of the latter, yet 10 years later Yoda was able to all but stalemate him. Against Plagueis he'd have certainly succeeded.

On par with Revan, IMO.

Das nice, codex calls him a Sith

He is described as an ancient Sith entity only to make the readers recognize him as the former Sith Emperor. However, the same codex entry then reveals that Valkorion perceived Sith teachings to be archaic and embraced a new philosophy to bolster his power.

Valkorion is not a Sith. Full stop.

More powerful than eryone barring Sidious, Yoda, Luke, Valkorion maybe, entities and other fagguts

Valkorion maybe?

- Valkorion/Vitiate,
- Revan,
- Darth Malgus,
- Arcann (possibly),
- Yoda,
- Palpatine,
- Luke Skywalker.

Agreed except revan
Why do you hold him so so highly

Why do you think Malgus and Arcann are superior to Revan lmfao

Canon Vader, you fool. We don't talk about the Legends nonsense. Not that it matters, because unless RotJ Palpatine didn't grow at all in over three decades, it's a moot point.

Yes
Revan is definitely overrated

No, I was asking if you have any evidence supporting the idea that Arcann and Malgus are indeed superior to Revan.

No, Revan is immensely powerful. This time, we have quantifiable showings to prove his greatness.

Revan was capable of ragdolling Darth Marr, Satele Shan, Lana Beniko, and 3 other people all at once, at the same time, mid-combat. Not even Yoda demonstrated something of that magnitude (Palpatine and Luke did though).

And now remember he done that multiple times, granted, that stuff was interrupted by the protag, but it's no surprise he couldn't fight the protag while ragdolling 6 people at once, 2 insanely powerful included.

Marr, overall, was stated to be superior to Deceived Malgus; obviously it's just "overall", so we can't say he was as powerful as Malgus, but somewhere in that tier. And Satele? Easily superior feats to the likes of Dooku, Xesh, Sadow, Cade Skywalker, Shaak Ti and guys like that. Even Lana Beniko was around Asajj/Obi-Wan level in the Force. And Revan could still ragdoll all of them at once, repeatedly, even though it obviously taxed him to the maximum, since he couldn't do anything against the HoT/Nox/Wrath/Thor at that time. Even then, it's immensely impressive.

Then take into account that "SOR" Revan was damaged, half his mind separated, already dead, destroyed, ravaged. He was no way near his prime.

Plagueis is superior to Vader in all his forms. 🙂

And lets not suggest Vader would stand a chance against TPM Palpatine.

Q: Do you feel that had it come to a contest of lightsabers or Force powers that Sidious would have prevailed anyway?

Luceno: If it had come to a duel, I think Plagueis may have found a way to undermine his apprentice.

If you support this quote, you support Maul > Dooku.

Have fun reconciling that 🙂

Look ILS. I love Maul. But it's gotten to a ridiculous point. Next thing you know you're going to try to say Maul is on Plagueis's level. Hell you're already working up to it by trying to bring him up to Vader who is compared to Plaguies in some areas.
