Re: Understanding Exar Kun's spirit.

So given that people are making threads like these on a whim, I thought I'd do the same, in an attempt to make clear what Exar Kun's status really was by this point.Many people dismiss Exar Kun's feats in Jedi Academy as being amped by Yavin IV, whilst Kun's spirit does utilise the focusing points of the temples on Yavin IV, this merely sustains his will over four millennia:
Exar Kun instead subsides off of the residual energy of the students of Luke's Jedi Praxeum, allowing him to remain a presence:
Exar Kun eventually corrupts Gantoris, Streen and Kyp Durron; but even their Force reserves cannot afford Exar Kun his full powers:
This is interesting given that the Jedi Academy trilogy has stated that if Kyp Durron was corrupted to the dark side, his powers would rival Darth Vader's:
Exar Kun's plan infact is to resurrect himself by draining power from Luke Skywalker and all of his students:
This resurrection would entail regaining his long lost reserves of energy from before his 'death' and regaining physical form:
Clearly sources have established that Exar Kun had never reached parity with his physical prime, for if he had regained that power via any means, he would have taken physical form.
So Exar Kun in his living prime is clearly fully capable of replicating all of the powers he displayed in Jedi Academy, but with even greater magnitude.
These feats include dominating Master Luke Skywalker with Force lightning; Force choking the melded Jedi Streen, Brakiss, Dorsk 81, Cilghal, Tionne, Kam, Jaina, Jacen and Kirani Ti; Summoning vortexes capable of launching multiple Jedi thousands of feet into the air; Telekinetically manipulating the circuitry of the Suncrusher whilst it was stuck inside the core of the sun Yavin Prime; Mentally manipulating Kyp Durron from across the galaxy; and senses capable of becoming one with an entire solar system.
Finally someone did something to show how much underrated Exar Kun truly is. And he'd beat DE Darth Sidious. Hardly. But he'd do that. 🙂 ^^ xD

Darth Sidious is the fourth strongest Dark Lord of the Sith
And the rest is debateable...
Only thing debatable is what type of cancer you just gave me.

My first thread I posted on in this star wars section happened to be "Who are your top three star wars characters?" My response was as follows:
1) Count Dooku
2) Exar Kun
3) Darth Bane
Clearly I'm no Sidious fanboy. Now that we got this out of the way.. your posts have made me paranoid. I think I'm going to go to the doctor to get checked out. Make sure I don't have any growths or tumors. 😉
Originally posted by Freedon NaddSeriously dude, you can't just keep coming back once every 3 months, spread cancer, get humiliated every time, and not kill yourself after. At least by the 10th time you did it, I legit thought you killed yourself.

I prefer to be embarrassing rather than submit to the false hype that is older than time itself and no more correct than my words.
Palpatine's best feat ever is creating a wormhole to destroy a fleet. We have Sith who were able to drain an entire planet (not just its population), live for 1000+ years, instantly sever all ties to the Force of other powerful beings, use TK to hold and move a star destroyer, use a lot of esoteric spells, exist beyond corporeal form or sustain their body that should've long ago turned to ash. Some Sith grew in power for a much longer time than the entire lifespan of Sidious; most of them lived during many wars and conflicts, where only the strongest were able to survive under a pressure of the constant competition and sacrifices. Palpatine never drained a planet (his weak syphoning of Byss doesn't count), he never even drained a Force user. He never used Sever Force. His Essence Transfer was flawed beyond belief. He was unable to move a pencil while existing without his body. He was unable to survive a mortal injury, unlike Sion or Revan. He never performed a destructive feat on a planetary scale, excluding a slow ravaging of one planet's surface with his precious Storms. He didn't defeat any other Force User as a child, unlike Vitiate, who managed to destroy another Sith and catch the world in his grasp before he was even an adult.
He never was able to split his essence or possess other people, he could only possess his degrading clones (who he couldn't even fix correctly) and failed miserably while trying to possess a child because of one mediocre dying Jedi. If he was so great, why couldn't he control his best spell - how Luke and Leia managed to break his grasp on his own creation and why he was rendered helpless because of it? He struggled with beating an old and tired Yoda, who is inferior to Revan, and was disarmed by him in ROTS script of their fight. He was unable to win a lightsaber duel against a newbie (albeit empowered) pre-prime Luke and lost an arm. He was unable to prevent a weakened and injured Vader from tossing him down the shaft. He didn't knew Fold Space or many other esoteric things that can make a major difference in any fight, while his own Wormhole can be countered pretty easily by the said Fold Space. He cannot replicate a lot ot Valkorion's feats, and Valkorion can replicate any of his feats aside from a Wormhole which he doesn't even need, because his Fold Space is a superior technique to Wormhole's teleportation and his lightning storm or planetary drain (which he performed alone and without even having a physical body!) can do more damage than the biggest Wormhole ever created. Nihilus used Sever Force on Kreia, do you think Kreia is weak? And he has no defense against a Sever Force. I can go on and on, but this is pointless...
