I am especially in the force not sure. Where do you rank the HoT, Nox, 'Thor and Wrath?

darthbane77
I have the HoT around Windu level overall. HoT>Nox>Wrath>'Thor

UCanShootMyNova
Nox I rate somewhere between Dooku and Vader as a force user and about mid council member level as a lightsaber combatant.

TenebrousWay
HoT = Obi Wan+ in sabers
Nox = difficult, probably Dooku+ level as Nova said
'Thor = Maul+ level in the Force, more or less, probably.

Dooku is my favorite character...

Why do you have Nox>Dooku?

Nephthys
Youtube the Thanaton fight.

Her performance against Thanaton is pretty huge. Semi ragdolled him and then immobilized him with telekinesis and forced him to his knees.

Thanaton by himself, killed Vitiate's apprentice as an apprentice, in a mission which he was expected to fail and ascended to the council soon after that and remained there until his death.

Also, note that I necessarily don't believe Nox's is definitely superior to Dooku. When I say Dooku+ I mean it's probably Dooku level and a case can be made to be superior than that. What prevent me than giving Nox a definite edge against Dooku is that the count's TK also impressed me as much.

Nephthys
I mean, Nox has the combined power of herself and 5 force ghosts. She's pretty legit.

chingchangwalla
All sub Dooku

MythLord
All sub Kenobi, besides maybe the Consular and Nox.

darthbane77
You guys don't have the SWTOR protags very high do you? Sub-Kenobi? Really?

They are all pretty shitty tbh

I don't think so, but to each his own I guess.

You're using ABC logic. The Consular is more likely to abuse, and really have, a power advantage over Kenobi who, due to his conservative/defensive fighting style, wouldn't press Barsen'Thor hard enough for him/her not to abuse said advantage(well he could, but not for a majority).

Ah okay. I meant raw power wise. Imo at least the HoTlander>'Thor, tho.

Ursumeles
Up
In sabers and force.
I am still not sure.

chingchangwalla
All below Maul.

You should just read respect threads or look at some of the old debates.

I've read the Wrath, 'Thor and Nox one, and still can't exactly rank them. Roughtly, yes, but not really good.

Nephthys
Then I suggest you just believe everything I tell you and rank them where I do.

Nox: Force - Approaching Vader level with the ghosts. Sabers - Better than people think. Can hold her own against Ventress, Maul and others.

Thor: Force - On par with Nox, through sheer skill if not power. Sabers - Meh, good enough.

Wrath: Force - Dooku level. Sabers - Dooku level. Possibly higher.

Hero: Better than the rest by a variable amount, in everything.

Ursumeles
Lol.
Momentary I have:

Nox
Sabers-a bit below the likes of Ventress
Force: a bit above Maul

Wrath
Sabers: between Ventress and TPM Maul
Force: around Maul

'Thor
Sabers: meh
Force: between Maul and Tyranus

HoT
Sabers: a bit better than Wrath
Force: a bit better than Nox|'Thor, through the HoT>all Jedi Quote

Outlander
Sabers: On par/above TPM Maul, but a notch below RotS Kenobi
Force: a notch below Dooku

TenebrousWay
Ursumeles, your ranking in the force is acceptable but you're severely underestimating the warriors in sabers.

NewGuy01
Each and every one of them is trash pre-KOTFE. On the bright side, they'd all still beat out the Exile.

Which warriors? I rank Ventress and Maul just a notch below Kenobi/Exile/Mara

TenebrousWay
Wrath/HoT/MVPlander

Ursumeles
Where you would rank them?
The wrath is <=TPM Maul, the HoT>=TPM Maul, and <Outlander<Kenobi

TenebrousWay

And you rank Maul above Malgus, even when it was necessary two force sensitive protags plus two of the greatest non force sensitive beings in the galaxy to bring him down?

Wrath is sub(but extremely close to) Kenobi, HoT is Kenobi and Highlander is sub Dooku.

Ursumeles
1. The fight is full of game mechanics, lel. I've ranked Malgus higher today, he probably approches Tyranus in the Force. Not sure about Sabers, tho.

2. So, I am "severly underestimating" the Wrath in Sabers, because I have him 1/4 tier or so, below where you have him erm
HoT hasn't done anything on Kenobis level in Sabers, imo. Outlander neither, but I can understand that you have him there.

1. The fact it was necessary the four protags to defeat him doesn't depend on any game mechanics...

2. I have the Maul/RotS Kenobi gap in sabers slightly higher than you, probably.

Ursumeles
1. Do you have a quote that sugest that all four were needed?
I mean, Anakin was also enough to beat him alone, Kenobi wasn't necessary.

2. Seems like it.

TenebrousWay
1. Err...that's basically the point of the flashpoint. Assemble a strike team to defeat Malgus, who is superior to the team members, individually. Anyone who suggests otherwise needs to prove that a smaller team could to the work.

cs_zoltan
By the same logic they needed 8 people to beat a rancor. So Malgus = half rancor. The ass half.

Interesting. So, Malgus>Act III protags. But that doesn't mean that he could easily beat or ragdoll them.

The rancor is an early game flashpoint. ._.

cs_zoltan
No it's a lvl50 operation. Karagga's Palace.

TenebrousWay
lol

I saw it on YT. It's pretty BS, zoltan. Even your hatred for anything TOR related must concede that.

Or TOR protags = 1/8 rancor?

A fair assumption, yeah.

Nephthys
Malgus does ragdoll a good portion of the Strike team, including one of the force users. So he can clearly manage it with some of them at least (I'd say Thor and Wrath are the obvious ones).

Depends on your double standards.

Nephthys
Theres a difference between a mid-boss during a flashpoint and the reason the team was assembled.

Also you need to factor in the armies you have to fight through during flashpoints. The obvious intention of them is that they're missions a single Protag could be overwhelmed by and against serious competition.

Ursumeles
Tbfh, while I disagree with Zolta, he is winning the debate, lmao.

TenebrousWay
I never did that flashpoint. If Neph is correct, though, zoltan's Rancor is irrelevant, since the original objective of the flashpoint wasn't to defeat the Rancor, unlike the FE flashpoint, where the objective is to kill Malgus.

The objective was to kill a hutt thumb up

Nephthys
In a tank powered by the most powerful energy source in the galaxy.

Sinious
HoT is the best combatant and arguably the most powerful one amongst them.

The Ellimist
As overall combatants:

Outlander - Dooku
HoT - Obi Wan
Barsen'thor - TCW Obi Wan
Wrath II/Nox - Ventress

NewGuy01
Well, from someone else's point of view what you're trying to pass (i.e TOR protags = 1/4 Malgus?) could seem equally retarded. Either way it's irrelevant, because the line of logic used to reach those two conclusions is the same is still the same; if you're going to use it in one situation, be prepared for another situation to bite you in the ass.

All the force using protag's before Kotfe are sub-Ventress level. smile

Why don't you compare their against feats and accolades against Kenobi, Ventress and Maul to known where they stack up.

Other than that I don't known what else, other than ask knowledgeable people.

Here are some of the HoT combat accomplishment's:

1. Being almost a Master level duelist as a non-fully trained padawan.

2. Having years of combat experience against force users and non-force users.

3. The HoT skills being considered by the Empire as legendary.

4. Becoming a Battlemaster at early mid 20s.

5. Having unrivaled lightsaber skills.

6. Fighting Arcann to a standstill while hindered and after being slammed into a metal wall and floor.

WHATEVS

Nephthys
Anyone is the strongest if they're the Outlander.

Smuggler included. yes

Petrus
Yes, of course, but we are assuming the 'Lander is HoT, yes?

Nephthys
Yes.

Also I personally think Wrath and Thor can certainly compete with Nox.

Petrus
I just think neither of them would've been able to pull off the absolute stomp Nox performed against Thanaton, and I also think his spirits are too much of an advantage in a conventional duel unless the opponent is far and above Nox, which isn't the case.

Dread Dark
Finaly im glad someone touched up on this, but how is HoT the best of all protags?

Ascendancy
Killing the embodiment of the Emperor I'm guessing would be the main feat, though Nox does some pretty high level solo work on Voss.

Sinious
HoT is mad underrated here.

Petrus
So is Nox tbh.

Considering personal strength, all are above Count Dooku, IMO.

The Outlander appears to be Yoda-TIER with his recent power-progression. On par with Revan at the least.

Ranking Darth Nox is really tricky. With several Force ghosts bind to him, he is a threat to all and would stomp most. Keeping in mind the fact that some Force ghosts mortally wounded Palpatine on Korriban. However, we don't get to see him use such raw power in newer expansions. So he let them go?

The Ellimist
Palpatine encountered several of the most prominent sith in history at the same time, that hardly compares to Nox having some ghosts on him.

Petrus
They're not just described as average level Force-user ghosts, though. I still hold that, based on his utter annihilation of Thanaton and the advantages the ghosts grant him in combat/life, he's well underrated.

The Ellimist
I think the Hero is intended to be the most powerful. S/he's outright stated to be the most powerful Jedi in the galaxy on more than one occasion, which would presumably extend to the Barsen'thor, and his feats outstrip Nox's, IMHO. Beating a weakened Vitiate is still legitimately impressive.

I'd say the Hero is on par with Obi Wan (pre-Outlander), which sounds lame to people who don't rate Obi Wan very highly, but I do.

SunRazer
Nowhere is it said that Palpatine was mortally wounded. They nearly killed him, but you can nearly die and still walk away unharmed.

Besides, if anything, that only speaks for the Force Ghosts on Korriban being extremely dangerous - and Palpatine may well have been very young then.

Regardless, it's a fact that Palpatine's many orders of magnitude above the likes of Horak-Mul in life, never mind as a weakened spirit.
