Feats from Ahsoka's Untold Tales

Nor do I see lightning “going into the saber”; all I see is it dancing across the blade as it is reflected back. If this was meant to be the intention all along, then it’s something that was badly presented as evidenced by the fact that, at least to my knowledge, no one has ever brought up the notion that Sidious can pour lightning down a saber blade before.

What? It's as blocked as any other Lightning usage in canon, and we're looking at a drawing her, and drawing conclusions from wording. You'd have to actually see it animated to determine any sort of difference. Not to mention, Sidious is supposed to be doing this through a door.

Uh, no, it's stupid to use it as a feat - and probably the epitome of retardation to point to it as proof she can handle Vitiate's lightning like you tried to do the other day.

If she's being incapacitated literally seconds after it happens, writing it off as a feat is laughable, especially considering the massive ****ing door between them.

Since we don't know what happened beyond the immediate scene of the panel, such a situation is possible if not likely.

Besides, it's not like an entire storm of lightning is travelling down her lightsaber, lmfao.

And Sel, they do that using some form of tutaminis. Nothing suggests it's an intrinsic property of the blade, which would make little sense.

No, but using a Lightsaber quite evidently makes it easier to channel the energy, so there's obviously some intrinsic property that aids in the absorption of Lightning. Hence if Sidious is attempting to send Lightning through a Lightsaber blade, he'd naturally suffer immense resistance.

Otherwise every Sith would have utilized this power more freely, Dooku and Sidious included.

You've substantiated this claim with absolutely nothing but hot air, on the other hand considering that Ventress was rendered immediately inert by the vastly inferior lightning of Count Dooku, yeah its a feat, and your attempts to suggest otherwise strikes of desperation. 😬

Wait a moment. When Jinn attempts to melt the door in front of him in TPM he seem to pushing the lightsaber in all the way to its hilt so that it's touching the door. Tano seems to be doing the same. Wouldn't it make more sense for Sidious's Lightning to have simply been conducted through the metal of the door so that it traveled through the tip of her hilt and out the other side rather then Sidious having a completely new ability?

"A lightsaber is a good conductor of lightning therefore its a bad conductor", lol I see no further need to respond.

So much trash. 👆

Slowly, but surely Ahsoka wank overtakes Kun as the most cancerous.

Where did I say anywhere that it was a good or bad conductor? 😬

Lightsabers are circuits that store, convert and recycle electricity. The Blade Emitter turns electricity into a magnetic field, and can convert said magnetic field back into energy to be stored. If Force Lightning is blocked by a Lightsaber, feeding the energy back into the blade to be recycled would be a natural thing for the Emitter Matrix to do.

To get Lightning protruding from the other side, one would have to pump more energy into the Lightsaber than said blade can contain or store, which given everything we know about Lightsabers, would be immense.

How much of Sidious' power would be required for this is impossible to tell, nor would how much power could be protruded from the other side. The fact is however the Lightsaber would limit Sidious' power, and given his refusal to use this technique against the likes of Yoda and Windu, it probably reduces the Lightning significantly enough to where it would not harm them.

Which is why I deemed this feat at the beginning of the thread:

@Sel, assuming your statements on how lightsabers work to be accurate, we do actually have an idea of how might be required to overwhelm a lightsaber given that Malgus was able to blow through Leneer's lightsaber defenses quite throughly.

And considering that Leneer is herself, extremely powerful, "immense" is a massive overestimation.

I don't know... between Ashoka's feat and Samuel Jackson's revelation of Mace's survival, Sheev is really loosing his knack for killing people. 😂

And considering that Leneer is herself, extremely powerful, evidently not very much.

Except she had initially been given no pause by Malgus' lightning:

His power met her will. The lightning twisted around the glowing blades. The force of it stopped her downward descent and held her aloft in the air for a moment, suspended on a column built of the dark side.

And then she overcame it. The lightning dissipated to nothingness and she, unharmed by it, fell straight down, landing on her feet atop a shifting pile of rubble and deactivating Master Zallow’s blade.

She was also injured in the second case, and Malgus had just received one of the greatest emotion-based amps we've seen.

So yes, Malgus could overpower a Lightsaber, that's not exactly surprising. Given she was wounded and could literally barely see straight, I'm not surprised she dropped her blades when they failed her.

Windu seemed to be enduring Palpatine's attempts quite handily. And this being a more concentrated and rage-filled Palpatine than one haphazardly attempting to kill Ahsoka.

And yet we have no idea how long she lasted. So again, for the third time:

As for Windu dealing with an "all-out" Sidious' lightning "quite handily", in what universe? Lol.

And once again, considering she was able to lock the door successfully it must have been for at least a few seconds. Which is yeah, a feat.

EDIT: This being assuming he did "overload" her lightsaber, rather than bypass it's absorption altogether.

But Yoda wasn't really "easily able" to do that, from what we see on screen. Other sources talk say he did, others say he struggled. What we see on screen is that it required far more effort than it did when Obi-Wan just blocked it with his lightsaber.

Which, is nice and all, but it doesn’t really address my point that Sidious’s lightning is more intense that Dooku’s.

It's not blocked if she is getting shocked by it, partially blacked perhaps but “blocked as any other Lightning usage”? No, certainly not. And of course I’m drawing conclusions based on what we have, in this case wording and a drawing. But we do this all the time when it comes to comics and novels and based on what we have here Sidious is doing something pretty much unprecedented.
