True.

EDIT: Ah, I misread what you were trying to say there, nvm.

Yeah, it's ok though I figured out how to add resized images.

Kind of like how toothless when he found out about his hidden scales.

@UCanShootMyNova - Doesn't really compare with instantly killing the three Masters, lol.

Toothless' unfold-able scales do, though.

Eh, I'd say it does tbh.

But then, our opinions differ on physical Force feats compared to feats against other Force users.

It's not particularly uncommon.

Causing negligible explosions with a burst of Lightning isn't anywhere close to one-shotting some of the most powerful Masters.

Yes but we're not talking about his blast compared to the drain feat but his storm which we could scale up from the blast.

That wasn't what you said before.

That said, his Storm wasn't charged up the entire time. He unleashes several different bursts. I don't think each burst would really compare to Traya's Drain.

I'm assuming we're referring to this section specifically.

And like I said, it's probably our different perspectives on the type of feats accomplished.

What exactly makes this masters "some of the most powerful masters?" Most powerful compared to who else?

Compared to most characters in the mythos. Learning some of the most advanced techniques available to the Jedi and performing feats above the vast majority of characters is why.

They're certainly some of the most powerful Masters of their time, but that would probably not be seen as saying much, lol.

Well, I mean, one actually did something and the other didn't.

This is cheap lowballing of Darth Thanaton's power.

Darth Thanaton had one-shotted Darth Nox (before) so he is capable of one-shotting those Jedi Masters too.

However, unlike those Jedi Masters, Darth Nox was practitioner of Sith Sorcery, bind several Force ghosts to him and drew strength from them to counter Darth Thanaton's powers. Those Force ghosts also granted him virtual immortality; they could bring him back after being struck down. We have not seen anything like this before in any story.

People conveniently forget that some Force ghosts almost killed Palpatine. That is the kind of power they can bring to bear, collectively.

Whatever they had, doesn't compares to command of the Force of Darth Nox in the slightest - a Sith touted as an adequate replacement of Tulak Hord. And you know what Darth Traya thought of Tulak Hord.

Traya thought Hord was an excellent duelist. She said nothing of him in terms of Force power.

And so what if they don't compare to Nox? You do realize that not affecting somebody doesn't belong in the same library, let alone the same sentence, as killing three people instantly?

His storm staggered Nox if I recall. And that's a feat for Nox not a knock against Thanaton.

It's certainly not a feat for Thanaton.

And it only staggered Nox after an extended period, IIRC.

Why not?

Tbh that's kind of like saying that Traya's attack against the 3 Jedi Masters is superior to the Outlander's Valkorion enhanced attack against Arcann that took like 30-40 seconds to do anything to him. Which we know is nonsense (...right?). In that case, that is a fantastic feat by Arcann to block the attack for so long, but that doesn't take away from the fact that it's an extremely impressive showing for the Outlander/Valkorion as well.
