Ranking the Banite Sith

Inspired by SunRazer's threads. Who is the closest to the following Sith Lords in sabers, Force, and all-out?

1. Darth Bane

2. Darth Zannah

3. Darth Tenebrous

4. Darth Venamis

5. Darth Plagueis

6. Darth Sidious (RotS)

7. Darth Maul

8. Darth Tyranus

9. Darth Vader

10. Darth Sidious (DE)

Sidious
Plagueis
Tenebrous
Dooku, Maul & Vader are interchangeable

No one cares about the others.

Ehhhh Bane and Zannah lol

I'd go further and say:

Vader
Dooku
Maul imo

All of you missed the point spectacularly, lol.

What is the point then?

Darth Bane / Zannah - dunno
Tenebrous - above the likes of Revan, Kun, Krayt & Novel Vitiate, but below SWTOR Vitiate
Venamis - between Dooku and Vader?
Plagueis- closest to,but above, Valkorion
Maul - RotS Kenobi or Rebels! Ahsoka
Dooku - Mace
Vader - Kun
Sidious - Luke

hurr duur Sidious is at the top, Bane is at the bottom

i rank

That which is in the OP: to list the beings who are closest to the Sith Lords mentioned in the OP. This isn't a top 10.

Darth Bane: sub-Dooku in DoE, higher in RoT.
Darth Zannah: sub-Bane in DoE, possibly Dooku+ at peak.
Darth Cognus: Inquisitor+ in DoE, possibly Dooku+ at peak.
Darth Gravid: Probably somewhere around Vader level, too little information to tell.
Darth Gean: Probably somewhere around Vader level, too little information to tell.
Darth Vectivus: Probably somewhere around Vader level, too little information to tell.
Darth Ramage: Somewhere between Vader level and Plagueis level.
Darth Tenebrous' Master: Somewhere between Vader level and Plagueis level.
Darth Tenebrous: Somewhere between Vader level and Plagueis level.
Darth Plagueis: Somewhere between Novel Vitiate and SWTOR Vitiate.
Darth Sidious: Valkorion+.

If you don't know where Maul, Dooku, and Vader stand, then I just can't help you.

Seems fair.

The position of Sheev's apprentices fluctuates for me constantly. But anyway, I'm looking for others' opinions, not my own.

Maul's like Grievous, he has his ups and downs. At his best he's right behind Dooku, at his worst he's... much less impressive than that.

With Dooku, just assume he's a tier higher than everyone else in this shithole has him. Dude's savage.

Vader's probably a cut above the best of the ancient DLsOTS, but beneath Exar Kun, Darth Krayt, and presumably the last ~250 years or so of Banite Sith.

Vader's beneath Exar Kun

😆

He is, in everything from feats to accolades to scaling.

Only the self-imposed delusions of Vader wankers say otherwise, so I'm hardly surprised that an imbecile such as yourself even dares question somebody like NewGuy in regards to personal ranking.

As distasteful as it is to shoot down someone who's trying to back me up, I can't really condone Vader>Kun being called a delusional stance, even if it isn't one I'm currently inclined towards. With the enormous wealth of feats and hype he has behind him, I think it's an easily defensible position to take.

Kun's debunked spirit feats/nexus ritual showings>> Vaders telekinesis/force power

Get with it

Tough match up, I haven't read the comics myself on Exar Kun but I feel I know enough to have at least a somewhat sound opinion.

In my eyes Exar Kun beats Vader.

Darth Bane: Around Dooku level in DoE. Higher as an overall combatant with orbalisks in RoT.
Darth Zannah: Around Maul level in DoE.
Darth Cognus: Jedi Master level in DoE.
Darth Tenebrous: Somewhere between Vader level and Plagueis level. Closest approximation I can think of is someone like Gethzerion or Caedus.
Darth Plagueis: TPM Palpatine.
Darth Sidious: GM Luke.
