To be fair that was on a Nexus

Vader might be "more powerful" but he's just a sloppy fighter. Also, Dooku's feat with obelisks, his precision is also pretty impressive.

Perhaps Kanan was... but at that point, it could be a ... mask? IDK, he wasn't amped before. On the other hand, Maul did a terrible mistakes in the past. That one could be just another. More then that, Kanan has his moments... He did better and better against The Grand Inquisitor, but even at their duel near the Tower, he was somehow inferior. Then he was captured, interrogated and when Ezra saved him, he obviously was out of his stregnths. And yet, he was able to reach smth like "pure clarity" and did a great job and dominated Grand Inq. Smth similar happend to him against Maul.

I don't see how Vader is a sloppy fighter.

I didn't see Maul make a mistake against Kanan. It's possible he underestimated him, but there was no visible mistake. Kanan obviously just had some huge Light side Force amp. So big that Ashoka could see it as well which is why she left him alone to face Maul blind.

So I'm not buying this "Massive" Dark Side Nexus boosting Maul and Vader's Saber abilities more so than everyone else.

Compare that to Maul who fought back.. Maul wasn't surrounded (had all the Pirates in front of him), had his Saber, and still got his legs blown off.

That said, Vader would have easily TK crushed all those pirates. He's just on another level Force wise.

Maul escaped while he had a disadvantage in having to protect his injured brother as well. Kenobi was also there converging on them. You always ignore the context.

Speculation and completely made up feat. It didn't occur so quit acting like your opinion is worth a damn. It isn't and never has been.

For future reference, has the effects of DS/LS nexi been explored in canon? If not, why are we applying "Legends" Force laws to canon?

Force and Destiny, 2015

Ah, I see. Thanks Beni. 🙂

That's Moraband, the planet they were on was Vrogas Vas, which had the remains of a Jedi Temple, not a Sith one.

Also Dathomir is a confirmed DS Nexus, and Morris a Gigantic LS and DS Force Nexus.

Where is it stated that malachor amplifies the powers of dark side users?

Is there anything about Malachor in Canon?

It isn't.

But someone on the Rebels team suggested the Inquisitors could only do that helicopter thing on Malachor. But even he said to refer to Filoni.

Exactly, so there's no proof that Vader and maul were amped on malachor

Nope. Whereas Kanan clearly was amped when he bested Maul.

Lol.
