Where do you guys rank Darth Bane?

"The fires had killed most of the other bouncers. The survivors had all gone mad."

Found it. ^ Note they went mad due to their telepathic nature.

In RoT, it notes there's at least one entire bouncer colony still around, I believe.

Also, many Jedi, Sith, and one young kid (forget his name) survived as well.

Okay, well they obviously didn't survive in an area that was otherwise completely incinerated. Zannah did.

This kid did: 😬

Above Maul probably, below people like Arcann and Dooku

Force: Vader+
Saber: A bit below Dooku
All Out: Solidly above Vader, moderately below Plagueis.

LMAO.
How can dude only be moderately below someone that has dozens of generations of power growth over him.

lel

Anyway, like, TUF Jacen level?

Absolutely no clue why you opted to name a character that no one has a definite rank for.

Because I like him.

There was an entire village of green balls that survived w/o shielding that they went back to after the storm, I recall.

Which is why I said the area they were in.

If you guy's don't mind, can someone please give me an in depth analysis on how powerful bane was with the force/how good he was in sabers? The books that he's in are written by Karpyshyn, and I absolutely refuse to read that garbage.

Also, how fast was he in comparison to other force users?

Best speed feat: Blocking every droplet of rain during a brief shower.

Best TK feat: Shaking a temple with a labyrinth located several miles below the surface down to its foundations on a DS nexus.

Being able to kill RoT Zannah with telekinesis in an injured state.

Best energy manipulation feat: Being capable of incinerating armored mercenaries by DoE.

Best skill feat: Being comparable to Kas'im ( someone who perfected all 7 forms of lightsaber combat ) as of PoD.

Best strength feat: Ripping a metal door off its hinges.

Best constitution feat: Surviving his own orbalisk amped lightning as of RoT along with the poison of the orbalisks that was released into his blood stream long enough to be brought to a healer.

Or something along those lines according to DMB.

He caused a temple that's portrayed wildly differently in different sources to cave in on itself. Per it's description in the novel and clarifications by Drew Karpyshyn, it's only 20 meters tall and shaped like a pyramid, but in SWTOR it's like a fvcking city.

Ant, do you have any evidence that the surviving Ruusanian bouncers were even caught in the blast? Laa wouldn't have survived without Rain's help, so I doubt any of the others would have survived either unless they could actually avoid the attack. And it's just a good feat for the kid if he survived it; it doesn't detract from the feat in any way.

The real crux of it is that the Jedi who were caught in the attack were utterly obliterated by it, which is why it's so impressive for Zannah, although she also has other feats as a kid, including levitating without practise, one-shotting fully trained Jedi, disintegrating limbs with a thought etc. So just imagine how powerful she would become with two decades of formal training, and even then she was only equal to Bane, who, keep in mind, had surpassed the power of his orbalisk suit on his own as of Dynasty of Evil. Even a single orbalisk made Bane more powerful than he had ever been, including when he was amped by Lehon, so just imagine how powerful an entire suit with potentially hundreds of orbalisks latched onto his skin and fueling his power would make him.

How would they have avoided the attack? The bouncers are seen traveling with Jedi before and after the ritual. They were in the proximity of the attack yet survived.

Countless Jedi and Sith survived the attack too, including Davorit, who is a kid noted to be terribly weak in the Force. Most of them are just shown to have minimal injuries.

Also it seems the Jedi and Sith were surprised for the attack. It's entirely possible those that died could have lived if they just prepared for it, given how weak the fires were.

the ds nexus doesn't need to be mentioned

kid zannah's tk feat was an involuntary one. To assume that a zannah who hasn't achieved her potential can replicate it is baseless

Force: Above Maul, below Dooku/Dooku's level.
Sabers: Ventress level.
All out: He'd lose a slight majority to ROTS Kenobi. So, someone slightly below ROTS Kenobi should be Bane level.
