Strongest character that Luke could best armies of

Essentially, what is the most powerful character that Luke could defeat an arbitrary amount of on an open field, provided that:

- we ignore stamina EDIT: in the long term. But he can't do his most powerful attack all day long, say his stamina recharges every 60 seconds enough to rejuvenate him were he just fighting with his lightsaber, and as much that is otherwise
- they can't combine their powers via meld/meditation/ritual/etc.
- Luke is going all-out
- we ignore the possibility of flukes/Luke eventually making a mistake from sheer statistics/etc.

I mean this is a Luke Skywalker who never makes a mistake and can employ mountain busting TK ad infinitum then?

Just addressed loophole

Hmmmm. Average Jedi padawan. 🙂

How many ?

Arbitrary numbers that approximate to entire armies.

It hurts muh brain. Give me a figure pls.

Maul.

He can probably several thousand Vader/Dooku-tiers.

You cannot stop the Luke wank. Nobody can.

A clone army was enough to wipe out the golden age of Jedi.

The limit as n approaches infinity.

I'm going to be a bit controversial here. While I accept that Luke is the strongest, he is not busting armies of anything close to Jedi. Luke Skywalker did manage to manipulate a Dovin Basal in 25 Aby. He first focused on the force and felt it "like he hasn't in years". And with that intensity he reached out and probed the black hole and the dovin basals before taking any action against them. So, apparently, he needs time to reach a special level of attunement with the force in order to perform such feats. Yet, in 28 ABY, where he's 3 years more experienced - and very potentially - three years more powerful. He's unable to overpower a group of nine Krizlaws with his Force might in a direct contest. Even with the aid of his nephew Jacen, despite using a Force-meld to 'amp' each other:

"Luke and Jacen placed themselves at two points of a defensive triangle, with Stalgis and the other stormtrooper at the other corner and the exhausted Hegerty in the middle. The xenobiologist was only slightly older than Luke, but she had no battle skills. The type of expedition she was used to, Luke imagined, would have had little cause for running like this. Krizlaws spread out in a circle around them. Luke used the Force to discourage those who came closest, but knew it was only a matter of time before he and the others were rushed. There was no way they could possibly repel all nine at once."

- New Jedi Order : Refugee

And just to note, Krizlaws aren't particularly dangerous considering other creatures in the SWU (rancors). And more importantly, they have never been credited with 'Force sensitivity'. Luke was basically facing a pack of over-sized, pink-skinned reptilian creatures that moved about on their muscular hind legs. They're only notable quality was their lower jaws, which could detach for a greater "swallowing" radius. So in essence, they were mini-dinosaurs no bigger than 3-4 meters long. And rather then "repelling" these creatures with TK, Luke and Jacen's chosen stratagem was shutting down their minds one-by-one - could he do this to an army of Jedi however? I do not think so.

I actually agree with Ziggy, numbers has always been a big deal on Star Wars, and no matter how hard you guys try to peddle fan-fic, Luke and co. isn't that good.

Revan soloed armies of Sith. 👆
