Why was Jaden Korr such a weak character in Jedi Academy?

He seemed like he had SO MUCH potential. Not to be as powerful as Revan or anything. But he definitely had the Potential to be close to Maul.

Fated Xtasy
I wouldn't call a thirteen year old child who can TK a pillar, send a boulder flying, tank a shot from the scepter of ragnos, solo entire imperial facilities, disarm nearly every person he's faced, defeated Boba Fett, take down a powerful sith lord and is constantly praised by Luke Skywalker himself, Weak. jmanghan if you're trolling, Bravo. If you're not then.... then I wish you were trolling.

DarthAnt66
Yeah... a 13 year old kid who beats the "greatest bounty hunter in the galaxy" and the "most powerful of the most powerful" Dark Lord of the Sith is "weak." Mmk. thumb up

How exactly did he defeat Boba Fett?

DarthAnt66
He fights him on Ord Mantell. After defeating him in combat he forced Fett to retreat.

Are you serious? Jaden is badass and he was only 13 in JA? He looked 20ish.

About Ragnos, is it known how much of his power was he capable of using there?

He was a spirit, so people assume he was weakened due to him being thousands of years old.

Oh and he was born in 0.BY or something like that, so he is thirteen in JA, even the novel confirms this.

Nalaniel
You're obviously trolling.

Some retarded shitsquatting asswagon decided to give Jaden an official DOB without realising that it would make him 13 at the time of JA. Or they were just dumb enough to think that was a good idea.

Boba wasn't defeated, he just chose to leave because it wasn't a fight worth fighting. Maybe he wouldn't be able to win anyway but it was inconclusive to say the least. Kyle (I think it's Kyle...) says afterward that Boba nearly killed him when they had fought, and that he's not an enemy you want, so I'm kind of dubious as to if Jaden really could beat him.

But then it's obviously not as simple as that. Jaden could have Force pushed Boba or anything, and even then simply being on your knees doesn't mean you've lost the fight. Boba was more than capable of getting up and potentially killing Jaden. But seeing as he likes to pick his fights, and there was no bounty on Jaden, he didn't see him as worth the risk of a direct fight. He wasn't running away, he chose to leave, and there's no evidence that Jaden could have taken him.

FreshestSlice
I wish that when I was a thirteen year that I could have gone toe-to-toe with Boba Feat, slay legions of Stormtroopers and DoR, summon one of the most powerful and difficult to conjure Force techniques as the opposite alignment, topple pillars, jump 25 feet in the air. move giant boulders with my mind, defeat Haxvion, and an ancient Sith specter. I must have been a fetus in comparison.

Does not irk me at all. No non-force sensitive should ever take on a semi-trained Jedi in a fight without extraordinary circumstances. There is no reason why any Jedi couldn't just immobilize Fett's limbs and ragdoll him at will. Especially given that most Force users display physical abilities that are blatantly supernatural.

Going by our standards, Boba's physical displays are also supernatural, same with his father's who he is an identical clone of. Force users being superhuman isn't exactly news either. Batman is considered superhuman in real terms, even if DC class him as "peak human".

It's not as easy as you make out to ragdoll people. For the more basic Force Users it still requires concentration, and Fett's overwhelming armament and accuracy would allow him to kill plenty of Force sensitives.

Don't be an idiot. Nothing Boba Fett has ever done can compare to Anakin Skywalker falling tens of thousands of feet and landing on a metallic airspeeder, decelerating at a rate of potentially thousands of G's, without any physical injury.



Qui Gon and Obi Wan can put their faces next to superheated durasteel without feeling any discomfort. Don't pretend Jango Fett has ever done anything comparable.



This is either a rhetorical strategy or immense stupidity on your part; you think that because you can apply the same label to two different feats, they must be equivalent in magnitude. As though there weren't different levels of supernatural. roll eyes (sarcastic)



It is when your target literally has no ability to even understand the medium that you are using. Any Jedi who can do as much as lift a 75 kilogram object should have no problem ragdolling Fett, let alone Jedi such as Anakin that can rip bolted machinery.



So what? They can still do it casually.



No, because any trained Force user would rip his blaster out of his hands and then crush his neck with a gesture.

1. No... but you don't need to do that to be deemed supernatural, lol. I didn't compare Boba to the likes Anakin or Obi-Wan, so you're arguing a point I didn't support in the first place.

2. Again, you keep bringing Anakin into the equation even though I didn't bring him up in the first place. Strawman ftw.

It ultimately depends on the individual. You obviously don't know much about Boba Fett to be making the claims you're making, and I'm honestly alright with leaving you that way. If you want to believe that any padawan who can lift a decent sized rock can kill Boba Fett, that's your warped sense of reality which you are more than welcome to.

So then you're just being a pedantic twit by pointing out that Boba Fett may be *technically* supernatural by RL standards, and failing to actually connect this to the topic. That makes more sense, given yourself.



Yeah, let's pretend that all of my points revolve around Anakin, so that you can conveniently ignore everything you've no counter for by cherry picking what you want to respond to.



Notice how you vaguely accuse me of not knowing much about Boba, vaguely disagree with my assertions, and vaguely appeal to your own incredulity, and then refuse to actually explain your position or give concrete arguments for your sake? You are a horrible debater.

The real hilarity is that you've abandoned any pretense of actually debating the subject matter. You come in and exchange blows for a few rounds, then cherry pick a single insult as an excuse to just go off the deep end. It's not conducive to intelligent discussion, and it's not very indicative of your own intellectual faculties either. I don't know what else to say, ILS.

ILS
Maybe you should call me a virgin with a community college education or something, that seems to be your main shtick. smile

Skybreaker
roll eyes (sarcastic) Again, do you have any interest in actually debating the subject matter?

ILS
What do you want to debate exactly? All I was ever getting at is that the average Force User isn't going to just crumple Boba into a little paper ball or whatever. Him and Jango's shtick is being able to contend in a galaxy of beings where they are out of their depth and get by on a combination of technology and skill.

You say any random Jedi can just ragdoll Boba. I disagree. For one, it comes down to the individual. Savage Opress for example is immensely powerful (relatively speaking), but you'll notice that just prior to Maul's duel with Viszla, Savage was pouring a fair bit of concentration into simply levitating a Mandalorian. He's powerful, but it required focus for him to ragdoll one guard.

I'm not saying Boba is immune to telekinesis, because he's obviously not, but when you take what I said above and add it to the fact Boba is incredibly versatile and accurate, he's no easy target to take down. He can voice activate weapons like his jetpack missile, which would be ideal for getting out of a Force choke. He has a sonic emitter which he can use to disorientate a Jedi at close range, allowing him to create distance, as well as two flame projectors, nerve darts and a wrist-laster. His accuracy isn't shabby either, because it's literally "built into" his genetics - and he shares genetics with a guy who killed numerous Jedi at the battle of Geonosis, killed Komari Vosa on open ground, and has other impressive sniper feats. Boba himself isn't shabby, he regularly disarms opponents by shooting their blasters out of their hands or non-lethally incapacitates them, even out-drawing multiple shooters at once, and he gives Force sensitives some level of challenge consistently.

Except your average trained Force user will, assuming that your average trained Force user can move a 75 kilogram human. You just don't understand just how little force it takes for someone to pin your limbs; humans are not that strong. Every Jedi we've ever seen can summon far more force through the Force than your strongest human could deadlifting.



Yes, I'm well aware of their shtick. I'm pointing out to you that their shtick is f*cking stupid, because having precognition and an instantaneous telekinesis gives you the ability to kill any individual non-force user at your leisure in any remotely "fair" circumstance. I'm fine with non-force sensitives taking on force users; I'd even welcome it. But they must do so with more clever tactics than literally facing them in 1 vs 1 combat. Tales of Jango Fett taking on Jedi and killing them with his bare hands are what f*cking don't make any sense, when you consider the observation that Jedi have the precog-enhanced reflexes to deflect blaster bolts, and yet apparently can't defeat a regular human in a brawl.



How much force does it take to rip a blaster out of a human's hands? Any trained Jedi could muster that level of TK. How much force does it take to crush someone's knees? Any trained Jedi could muster that level of TK. What level of reflexes does it take to be unassailable in h2h? Certainly less than the reflexes it takes to deflect blaster fire.

Accept it: the ability to move objects with your mind and see things before they happen makes you unbeatable against a conventional foe in a 1 vs 1 confrontation. TK is instantaneous, and Jedi can literally pull it off before Fett even thinks to draw his blaster. That's what having supernatural abilities gives you.




Irrelevant. Being "versatile" doesn't mean sh*t unless he has an anti-TK device. Being "accurate" doesn't mean sh*t unless he has the quick-draw ability to out-draw someone who can react to things before they happen.



Don't be a moron. Voice activation takes infinitely longer than thinking, which is the requirement to rip Fett's eyeballs out. The human body is incredibly fragile, and so being able to apply force to it without any defense mechanism is an insta-win.



No, it wouldn't. Try using voice activation with your trachea being crushed. Pretend that a Force choke is not more like a Force crush, because it doesn't take much force at all to crush a trachea, far less than it takes to do any of the things Jedi regularly do.



The point clearly sails over your feeble-minded head; none of these gadgets can be fired faster than the speed of thought.



Irrelevant. Jedi can deflect blaster bolts because they see things before they happen; you can be 100% accurate and it won't matter, because the Jedi will just deflect the bolt back at you, and you can deflect them back.



Wow, you're a joke. You defend the realism of the Fett's taking down Force sensitives...by pointing out that they've defeated Force sensitives? laughing

Circular reasoning is something that many politicians do to bluff their way through debates; I've a feeling that you're actually doing it because you think it's a legitimate argument.

If you don't want to be called out for being an idiot, try to wisen up and not make momentously idiotic statements such as "it's realistic for Fett to stand a chance against force sensisitives...because he's stood against force sensitives before". Idiotic illogic like this lowers the quality of discussion for everyone, far moreso than a half-sentence insult sporadically inserted in actually substantive arguments that you decide to ignore to your own benefit.

But I do love that you yourself have, on multiple occasions, insulted myself and others on your own volition, but you obviously think it's OK because you're more passive-aggressive about it and don't directly call someone an idiot. It's the height of immaturity on your part that you clearly think insults somehow denote immaturity (as though political correctness were a measuring stick for maturity roll eyes (sarcastic) ) but fail to recognize your own warning signs:

1. You cherry pick insults that make up 5% of a post as an excuse to ignore the 95% of the post that you have absolutely no substantive argument to provide against.

2. You frequently resort to ridiculous sarcastic trolling in place of actual argumentation, but apparently this isn't as bad as calling someone an idiot, even though it is far more detrimental to intelligent discussion.

3. When things don't go your way, you flee from the actual debate and then find any excuse to play the victim and declare the debate over because the other person "isn't worth your time", because he insulted you (even if you'd been insulting him), or by simply resorting to your sarcastic trolling.

All of these problems actually take away from intelligent debate. Saying "don't be an idiot" or whatever every paragraph or two does not. Again: you are pathetic, because you try to compensate for your intellectual failures by trying to play manner police. It's pretty f*cking hilarious.

^yeah, you're the one to resort to being a smartass over substantive defenses of your position.

Face it: trolling an entire thread by talking about Mace Windu's master papercut abilities is far more childish and detrimental to intelligent debate than occasionally calling someone an idiot for using circular logic. The latter is just a compliment to the substantive arguments; the former is used as a substitute. You can play manners police all you want and pretend that you're being "mature"; we all know you can't actually defend yourself in a real debate.

If you were, you wouldn't have cherry picked 5% of my post as an excuse to dismiss the other 95%, and then proudly declared yourself the moral victor, as though it were OK for you to hurl insults so long as you did it vaguely.




Don't act as though this weren't reciprocated, or as if it takes me "psychotic lengths" to type 90 second posts.

That's your problem; you don't address my arguments point-by-point, you frequently drop arguments or mishaps and push them to the side, and you focus on trying to make attacks on my mental state rather than debating the actual subject matter.

Yeah, but you see, this is your problem here; you focus so much on trying to discern my hidden intentions over the keyboards, or the proper manners that I'm trying to use here, or whatever else you can muster, and to you, the actual arguments being presented in relation to the actual subject matter are the least important criteria. Do you realize how incredibly immature and petty of you it is to think that sporadic insults are more important than the real quality of debate?

This is especially silly of you to bring up when you consider the fact that the other member in question started this feud by throwing out insults against me in another discussion. But you probably don't care as much because he did it in a passive-aggressive, address-in-the-third-person manner, and this is OK, because you are more concerned with semantics than anything else.

I was only giving out some friendly advice, i say nothing to the other user because he is not as aggressive as you when he is debating, the granted i made a petty remark, though i had hoped people would see it as a joke and not take it to heart. All i wished to state is that, you should really watch how aggressive you are being as this will most likely lead to members reporting you and landing you in a two week, ban/suspension. granted this is the internet, and it shouldn't matter, but I just thought i should warn you. Despite the trolls, bait threads and constant BS you've no doubt seen on here, this place has rules.

Not to mention that insulting other users is not the best way to get started on here.

Wow, your reading comprehension is simply awful. I wasn't accusing you of not wanting to be judged. I was accusing you of judging other people, just as you do here:




Your hypocrisy is astounding, as is your befuddling of subjects and objects in simple sentences.

The irony is great. Please read the text I quoted from the Holy Bible. "Do not judge, and you will not be judged."
I judge, and in return expect to be judged. You judge, but in return do not expect to me judged.

Correct. He makes insults in a passive-aggressive, evasive manner, which many seem to think is better.



Yes, I understand this is practically unwise. I disagree with your insinuation that this is somehow a bad thing on principle, as though being an "aggressive" debater were somehow less moral than being a passive-aggressive one. If you do not mean to suggest this, then we have nothing to disagree over.

I've no problem with you "judging" me. But you run away from actually logically defending your judgments, given that every time I point out the hypocrisies and flaws in your argument, you just run away and quote a vague bible verse.

And here's another hypocrisy for you to evade and ignore: if it's OK to judge someone so long as you're willing to be judged, why the f*ck did you report me for judging someone? laughing

Excuse yourself, but you called it out twice (even though they are both invalid), and I put a Bible verse (the power of the Bible is greater then any word), once. So...?

There is a difference between harassment and judgment. Learn the difference. Thank you! big grin

Not in debating, i mean the insults could be troublesome friend, as some would take it to heart and call a moderator and get you banned. You're a decent guy i imagine, but the overly-aggressive insults will get you in trouble.

Now, could i ask that we please drop this subject, shake hands(via the internet), and refrain from allowing this "derailing" of the thread to continue. I would great appreciate that and I am sure the Original poster would also be thankful.

Apologies to you jmanghan.

You claim that they are "invalid", yet you never actually defend your argument. You judge, but fail to actually substantiate your judgment. This whole time you've been trying to play vague mystic cryptic keepaway.



Yet again you decide to vaguely make a point without bothering to substantiate it. I was engaging SW_legend in a debate regarding the subject matter he willingly engaged in, and then criticized his debating style. You jump into arguments you have no role in and decide to throw weird bible verses at me. Please tell me the former is "harassment", and the latter is "judgment".

DarthAnt66
Everyone knows they are invalid, why waist my time when you can simply go to a old topic of mine and read for yourself.

Your hostility to ILS is the reason I reported you.

NewGuy01
Nah.

Do not judge, and you will still be judged.

So not condemn, and you will regardless be condemned.

Do not lie, and you will still be lied to.

LOL, what a way to avoid a real argument.



No, that was in regards to SW_legend. But in either case, you obviously never bothered to look at context before you put your foot in the door.

The fact of the matter is, you've hurled your own share of sinister insults throughout this whole clusterf*ck, the difference is that you've made them with an air of self righteousness, masked in passive-aggressive language, and this somehow makes it more acceptable.

BTW, your Bible tells us that we should kill homosexuals and stone to death women who aren't virgins when they marry. I'm just pointing that out for you, since you refused to respect my religious conscience.

Making you do work for yourself can be rewarding for both of us.

Oh, I believe you are mistaken. I reported you in 7 different posts among the past several days. The chance you will not get banned/warned is like 0.
It is sad to see people view the truth as insulting. Wouldn't the greatest insult be not telling the truth?
Yes, times have changed. Note that the Bible was written for a culture and a time different from ours today.

This is an insult. But it's OK because you phrase it weirdly. It also shifts burden of proof. But it's OK because you never were interested in legitimate debate in the first place.



Wow, talk about having no life. laughing



THEN WHY THE F*CK DID YOU REPORT ME FOR MAKING ACCURATE STATEMENTS ABOUT SOMEONE'S POOR DEBATING STYLE?

laughing Religious zealots are always the funnest to observe.




Then why do you still quote it, if it contains verses about massacring children?

ILS
Huh, as a community you guys can really keep a lid on things when it gets too heated up.

I think it's fair for me to admit that I was being a smartass today, although I still think Skybreaker went over the top, and I think he continues going over the top when he unrelentingly badgers people to address his argument point for point and stick to the "subject matter". Fact is I simply cannot be bothered talking to you if you're going to sit and insult me, I have better things to do with my time. I'm not going to get upset over it, it's just pointless to sling insults over the web no matter how much we all end up doing it from time to time.

Can we all just call a truce on this one? At the end of the day the stuff we're fighting over is ridiculously unimportant in the grand scheme of life.

Strangely enough, I've encountered vs threads ranging from Jaden Vs Windu, to Jaden Vs Kyp Durron. There were a few people that actually tried to do Jaden justice, but they usually got shot down fairly quick. Plus, they never bothered to make a respect thread for him wink

The self of hypocritical self righteous arrogance/ narcissism I've seen in DarthAnt is quite disturbing, it's like he doesn't even realize how he massively contradicts himself every time he opens his mouth with his overbearing preaching about his nonexistent, genocidal deity.
