Darth Vader vs. Exar Kun

They TK'ed a bunch of rocks, lmao.

Collectively, this team isn't coming close to collapsing a Cathedral large enough to sport a underground labyrinth, something a half-dead, decade(s) before gaining several minuscule-to-substantial increases in power - Vader did.

TBH, they probably are, and then you have to consider how much weaker Kun is as a spectre, compared to basically redundant "power increases" vader recieves that don't even allow him to ragdoll Kanan and Ezra on a DS nexus.

Wrong continuity.

Does this thread say Legends only? I know you like to stick your head when it suits, but save me and anyone else the trouble and stick to making Ewok respect threads.

Let's stick with Legends.

But I would say that Canon Vader loses.

I'm still impressed by Exar's performance against Luke.

Well given since the start, Legends has been argued...well...at any rate, don't need to be rude, I was just saying is all.

More to the point is there any evidence that had been instructed in defence against the Dark Arts?

Lol kidding aside, that's a good point. The sith apprentices in PoD learned really early on to erect Force defenses, but I'm not sure if Luke would've prioritized that. It's telling that one of the apprentices (forgot who) got out of the grip with some trick about rushing his throats with air or something; if that were more effective than Force shields, I'd imagine someone would've figured it out by the PT era.

Luke had said that the apprentices were approaching the limits of what he could teach them.

That he did. Plus this

Ellimist, stop picking holes where there are none.

Luke says lots of things, like that Obi Wan is still more powerful than him in DE.

lmao

Lukes opinions on that are irrelevant. I'm pretty sure he knows what he's taught his own students. 😬

I'm pretty sure those weren't comparisons in power or combat, more that they had nothing to do with them.

No, Luke is just humble and downplays his abilities. He was trying to prevent them from learning too fast, remember.

Wait a minute; hasn't Luke studied under Palpatine? And didn't he read the Dark Side Compendium?

That- what? Being humble has nothing to do with it. Luke states he's taught them most of what he knows. Thats not really an opinion, that is him stating something he has actually done.

I see. It appears that either:

a) By JA Luke independently knows more than the combined works of Palpatine

or

b) His students were learning about the f*cking Dark Side Compendium

Spoiler:
or c) Luke is just flattering people.

I still think you're having a brain fart here, but to humor you, it says they were reaching the limits of what he could teach them. Obviously he can't teach them dark side techniques.

Lol, your interpretation was "Luke states he's taught them most of what he knows", and now you're reshaping the quote to mean "what he's willing to show them".
