I'm simply informing you of the facts due to your complete ignorance. Be grateful.I've no clue what you're raving about. If Vitiate had gained enough power to be at full strength and regain his form just via possessing Ziost and feeding on them then he wouldn't need to have wiped out the planet to do so.
If you like. I rather think be capable of wiping out the galaxy is impressive regardless of needing a few billion deaths as collateral. And for the record he is shown achieving this feat in a vision at a later point without any genocidal requirements.
Then tell me some of these 3 Jedi's ( aside from HoT and Tol Braga ) feats. 🙂 Tell me what makes them so powerful outside of your accolade.
Maybe he simply wanted to be even more powerful then before? Nah, that couldn't possibly have been a motive for a power hungry being to drain the planet.
Given we have no idea how much power is generated from a single death and have no viable way of measuring the energy drawing on billions of deaths is capable of generating you can be impressed with his attempted ritual as much as you like. It doesn't make it in any way quantifiable. What vision are you referring to?

The feat is impressive nonetheless, as he needed to concentrate all that power for use in the first place.
Given we're trying to quantify his power off the feats in question we can't very well assess his power off of that.
I.E. You can't assess someone's power off of a feat they attempted to accomplish using all of their power when you don't know what their power is beforehand.

But I in the post 2 above us I say that you say they're comparable not equal. I just don't understand why you thought I would think that.
Yeah.

Really?
The powerful electrical storms were a physical manifestation of the dark side power that engulfed the entire planet—a power that had brought the Sith back here a millennium before, when their very survival had been in doubt.-- The Old Republic: Revan
Not to mention the trio fought Vitiate inside his Citadel, the dark side energies of which Scourge explicitly noted he drew upon even at a considerable distance:
A decade earlier, when Scourge had first arrived on Dromund Kaas as a young apprentice, he had vowed to one day set foot inside the citadel’s exclusive halls. Yet in all his years of training at the Sith Academy on Kaas City’s borders, he had never been granted the privilege. He had been one of the top students, marked by his superiors for his strength in the Force and his fanatic devotion to the ways of the Sith. But acolytes were not permitted inside the citadel; its secrets were reserved for those in direct service to the Emperor and the Dark Council.The dark side power emanating from within the building was undeniable; he had felt the raw, crackling energy every day during his years as an acolyte. He had drawn on it, focusing his mind and spirit to channel the power through his own body to sustain him during the brutal training sessions.
