Spoiler:
It wasn't actually with TK.

Obviously not, because he never had a ship on Korriban.

Of course he did. But you're right in that I was referring to him raising the ship from Yavin 4 not Korriban.

But Kun did raise it with TK, just as Sidious manipualted the Lusankya with TK. This is confirmed by sources.

Kun didn't. It seems Palps did though.

Not sure, the emphasis could be on the act of burying it but could also be referring to the fact he made it disappear.

Yes, he made it disappear by burying it 🙂

But more to the point, fogging everyone's minds so no one would notice him burying it. 👆

I find this much the same as the Kun case, the ship has functioning engines, in this case it must have made it into the atmosphere, the application of TK is entirely unwarranted.

Yes, I believe that to be the case as well.

But the text states he did use the Force to bury it. This is not a matter of contention.

You're right that it isn't a matter of contention. Because he didn't use TK at all. His demonstration was the mind fogging. As that was part of his act of burying it, its included in the description.

Like Beni said, the ship worked. It didn't need to be lifted. Do you also think Palpatine dug up a 19000 meter trench as well? Lmao.

Neph, we're talking about the guy who can bend lightsaber blades here. A 19,000 meter trench is nothing to him. 😂

dang i didn't even think of that

Valkorion's lightning only killed the pilots, leaving the shuttles to crash.

Valkorion did Harambe.

That's true.

It doesn't say that, it says the act of burying it (in a disappearing act) was a demonstration of his dark side power. In which case fogging the minds of those witness to seeing it be buried suffices imo.

^ He buried the ship in a demonstration of dark side powers. Not merely facilitated the burial of the ship or concealed the burial of the ship, which we know already he did via TP.

The Fact File is pretty straightforward: he used the Force to bury the ship. Per other sources, he also used the Force to conceal the burial from witnesses.

Pretty epic.

Damn, great feat. 👆

Damn.

Lol to be fair isn't there a quote claiming that the ship was actually hidden inside a torpedo sphere or something?
