He is not a Jedi at this point anyway.


Most members don't rank Marr and Shan very high, so the feat isn't regarded as something beyond Yoda.

It definitely puts Revan significantly above those like Vader. Although that was obvious even ignoring the feat. 😉

They tend to perceive Revan as a Jedi and try to place him below Yoda, without realizing the fact that Revan is neither a Jedi and nor a Sith.

Darth Marr and Satele Shan are legitimate powerhouses.

I'm providing the rules Chee established. You, self-admittedly, are ignoring them, lmfao.
Orly? You must have special glasses then (or special needs) as I'm not seeing anywhere Chee even mentioning video games specifically, let alone outlining which mechanics are and are not canon. 🙁

It can be interpreted as probability rolls in video-games too, ****ing retard. 😬
Right, do you know what dice are mate? I can provide pictures if you like.

Even if you don't want to, that's not my problem. Revan's doesn't fall under that boat.
Doesn't matter as it's just an example, yeah.

As if Star Wars has never had questionable showings before.
Is that the best you can manage? Star Wars has had questionable showings in the past yes, but not ones that ride roughshod over established settings within the same source material lmao. The "galaxy's greatest champions" to food for fodder, how far they've fallen. 😂

Revan's is canon. 👆
Keep reaching. 👆

Malgus and Soverus stuff is also timed to happen, not just random.

Loving Beni's desperation. 🙂

........ Excellent!

Plo Koon = Dooku due to both having +7 force powers in the Clone Wars campaign guide

Right; because you can totally find feats for them and gauge their Force power through a guide for an RPG.

Ant, when even LeGenD sees the light before you do, you know something's wrong. Wake up.

As long as there's a chance quarter wits like Geistalt will buy it, he won't. 🙁

Well, it's never going to be a win for Revan. Either we don't accept all of the boss ragdolls, or we accept all of them. If it's the former, then Revan doesn't get the feat. If it's the latter, then the protagonists are so shit/inconsistent that Revan's ragdoll means nothing anyway.

Yeah if anything it's just embarrassing that they managed to beat him. 🙁

Unless new evidence is provided, I don't even consider it up for debate - just a fact that I will try to get others to recognize as well.

I think you understand too that any rationalize interpretation of the various quotes I've provided will recognize it is technically canonical.

For whether a bias against Revan, or ignorance against other SWTOR showings, you want to ignore the facts presented in front of you.

That's the case for Beni at least, who directly admitted that he's just ignoring canon policy in favor of his own preconceptions, which is wrong.

FYI, you'd be surprised how many people already accept the feat as canonical. 👆

All video games as of now are under the old Legends continuity. The Legends continuity has a very specific statute about game mechanics. They are n-canon. Now this quote can be applied to any future games released under the canon.

Quote? The old EU has tons on quotes on the canoncity of game mechanics, all of which upheld its legitimacy.

I'm aware of a couple of Revan fanboys, yeah. Even LeGenD doesn't accept it, and he wanks TOR.

This is just payback for "Ulic > Valkoriate."

He didn't originally because he didn't understand the full context behind the feat, but after I explained it, he agreed to support it.

Unless he changed his mind somewhere above?

Last I saw of him, he was still questioning it and never officially claimed to support it.

Regardless, the funny thing is that Beni's rebuttals still stand.

🙄

Uh, how about the question, which asks about video-games.

What, you think Chee forgot what the question asked from the time he read it and the time he began typing?

Try Dark Disciple. 👆

The fact they're new characters doesn't make them fodder either.
