Darth Sion & 2 Sith Lords Run The Inquisitor Gauntlet

Darth Sion and the two Sith Lords who were with him on M4-78 confront the Inquisitors in several rounds. All combatants are bloodlusted.

1. Fifth Brother, Seventh Sister & Eighth Brother in the Korriban Academy

2. Fifth Brother, Seventh Sister & Eighth Brother in the jungles of Ryloth

3. Grand Inquisitor, Fifth Brother & Seventh Sister in the Dark Temple

4. Grand Inquisitor, Fifth Brother & Seventh Sister in the Petranaki Arena

5. Grand Inquisitor, Fifth Brother, Seventh Sister & Eighth Brother in the Trayus Academy

What do the Sith Lords accompanying Sion have to their name?

Other than helping Sion virtually kill the Exile with their Lightning, they're Blademasters, but we'll get to that later.

Here's something for the standard Triumvirate assassins:

The Sith students of Darth Revan and Darth Malak are many of the same Jedi Crusaders that once fought for the republic. Already proficient in the Jedi arts, these marauders acquire new nefarious talents studying at the feet of Headmaster Jorak Uln - one of Exar Kun's original Sith acolytes.

During the Dark Wars, surviving Sith students submit to the triumvirate.

-- Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide

These Sith Lords in particular apparently have the Blademaster appearance, which means:

Established by Darth Revan and heavily utilized by Darth Sion, these surreptitious butchers specialize in practical modes of Jedi execution. They drain the Force from their targets to augment their own powers and expertly turn captives into Sith with a combination of torture, Sith poisons, and the dark-side-drenched masks they wear.

The most elite of these assassins are the Bladeborn - Sith blademasters who sometimes use lightsabers but more often wield dreaded tremor swords. Secluded on Malachor V, the Sith Assassins become pivotal tools for the Sith Triumvirate.

-- Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide

Traced to the Bladeborn, a Sith offshoot dedicated to sword mastery, these cortosis-faced weapons were given to “masterblades” who survived no less than 10 lightsaber-wielding warriors in combat.

Remembering that the average Jedi of this era > the average Jedi of the PT era.

It also mentions in the first quote above that these Assassins are supposed to be secluded on Malachor V, which makes them the top Sith of their time:

Only by fighting your way through the Sith's strongest guardians can you earn the right to confront your nemesis.

To reach the structure's core, where Darth Sion and Kreia await, you must face a legion of elite Sith single-handedly.

Based on what? We know the upper tiers in the PT shit on that of any prior era in history, what makes you think the average case is different?

I'd say 5 or clear.

@Ellimist - Upper echelons are obviously different. The KotOR CG claims:

The many wars of the era compel large numbers of Jedi to become experts in lightsaber and force related combat. Some become masters on the battlefield; others become highly skilled duelists capable of taking on Dark Jedi and Sith in single combat.
-- Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide

During this time, the Jedi Order is at the summit of its power and self-confidence.
-- Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide

Even more so than in the Clone Wars, these are the days of the Jedi in their prime. They do battle with the evil Sith, and defend the galaxy against the Mandalorian hordes.
-- Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide

The last quote says it most directly. I take it to apply for the average Jedi.

I guess if we assume it's talking about combative prowess, OK. That's interesting.

Spoiler:
Obviously it's talking about political power.

It is talking about combative prowess, since it mentions many of them becoming experts in lightsaber and Force-related combat and highly skilled duelists.

All of which depend on important political processes such as the funding behind their training, the military support they can develop, etc.

Really? In Palpatine's case, the political advancements happened to be increases in dark side knowledge.

Bump. Somebody interested in making a case for the Inquisitors?

I don't see how they can deal with drain.

Do you reckon they'll win if I remove Drain?

Tbh the Sith Lords are ridiculously powerful with precision Force Powers and utilizing multiple ones at a time. Not seeing how the Inquisitors can deal with that, plus Force Lighting too.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Ah. Yes, Choking one and using Insanity on another with only one gesture is pretty good. As is the Choke killing that other dude, and the insta-kill Lightning.

Kind of like Malak's feat on the SF, tbh. Only it was two Jedi in that case, not two subservient soldiers.

But point taken.

Hmm. Is the Eighth Brother devoid of Force feats? What are the Force feats for 5th and 7th? I know there's the one with the doors and Choking Kanan.
