Starkiller vs. Darth Nihilus (TK battle)

That was prior to the forum discovering just how difficult Nihilus' feat was. But thanks for displaying how invested you are in stalking my every post.

False and lacking context. Like most of your posts.

I don't see the rest of the forum sharing your opinion on the impressiveness of the feat tbh.

Nah, all of the people with basic cognitive analytic abilities does. Removing a fleet from a gravity well, which is what Nihilus did prior to consuming five planets. Is well beyond the individual support structures of that building.

Anyone wanna sig this?

So Galen wasn't in top shape when he guided the Star Destroyer? Never played that game but if so I wonder if he really can bring down a SD. He can't be that much weaker than clone SK.

Unless you can prove that the storms were exerting the same level of gravitational pull on the ships as when they were initially brought down, that's simply not the case.

Given your lack of response to Freshest on this matter, I assume you came to this conclusions based on your own assumptions rather then actual evidence...

The feat he accomplished prior took a far larger portion of his energies then guiding the Star Destroyer down would have. He and the clone have a sort of parity given Rahm believes the clone could be Galen though the clone is confirmed to be more powerful overall.

SK II charging a cannon that split a star destroyer in half which can withstand a petaton of energy before going down is more impressive than bringing down a SD. If OG wasn't in top shape when he guided it down and performed a better feat that makea far more sense than SK II being orders of magnitudes more powerful. A Petaton for the recor is 1 billion Megatons, most powerful nuke made in the 20th century was 50 megatons in comparison.

Yeah, I'm aware. That's always the logic I've used as well. 👆

Also note that:

1. Lightning =/= TK

2. It's implied (or rather outright stated) that bringing down the ISD was hard largely for psychological reasons.

3. It's non trivial to guide the ISD for reasons other than sheer lifting strength.

Js but the feat was calculated at being roughly a gigaton using a lowball mass for the SD. I brought a source that gives us the mass of a SD for Legends that bumped that feat to a Teraton. And true, I recall Kota telling Marek his version of "size matters not"

On topic, taking Nihilus stuff at face value Id say he wins I suppose.

Which "Nihilus stuff?" And I wouldn't take anything AP says at face value. He's a self admitted liar and forger.

Not sure if you can compare the various metrics that may go into telekinetically moving something to a simple gross energy balance. There may be limits in terms of how much force (the physics term) he can use across what surface area at what distance, etc.

Him holding the Ravager and a fleet of Sith Warships together with the Force and powering. Even if it was just the Ravager the Kinetic energy to lift a multi billion ton star ship to escape velocity would be compsrable if not superior to Mareks TK feats, and if Nihilus powers said ship that'd be even more impressive.

I've played KOTOR 2 admittedly years ago, but iirc regarding the MSG it no longer had any power and needed to be recharged by the cores of 5 Republic warships on the surface. At the same time, didn't the Revan novel state Meetra did fight against the affects of increased gravity?

"a multi billion ton star ship"

Wut.

Which is what source for mass?

Meant to say multi million. Im just guessing since it's roughly the same dimensions as a SD but chunks of it gone.

@Zenwolf it comes from this

EU writers suck at math, as mass figures for ISDs are absurdly low.

I'm pretty sure blowing 150 meters of frigate into what's described as:

"atoms"

"a billion pieces"

"small fragments"

would be better then lifting an ISD sized ship out of orbit. But you know the math better then me.
