The Nathema ritual took place after the Great Hyperspace War, by which point Ragnos was long dead, and all the other Sith were dead too. 👆
Other than those some 8,000 that were on Nathema. Then again, numbers in SWTOR have always been retarded when taking other literature into account.

@NewGuy01 Yeah, you'd expect him to have grown drastically stronger after such a ritual, but it's difficult to buy that without either making his post-Nathema self a weakling - which doesn't fit with his backstory of Force severing and driving mad a sith lord when he was 10 - or his post-Nathema self some sort of Abeloth-tier god, which doesn't fit with his getting disarmed by Meetra on a dark side nexus.A Dooku - > Vader jump is an underperformance but still impressive enough to be believable. Vitiate was clearly more prodigious than Dooku, but then again, Palpatine was more prodigious than Anakin; potential seems to manifest at inconsistent times.

That quote isn't a thing.Ragnos was Vitiate's Master tho. 🙂
Ragnos was well-known for minimizing potential threats to him through his schemes and sound decisions. Ragnos could not afford enmity of Vitiate.
Vitiate is largely self-taught. Becoming an apprentice of someone (even the ruling Emperor) was beneath him.
