Was his identity ever revealed?

Don't think so. Just that he's a Terrelian Jango Jumper apparently.

Was he even force sensitive?

Why wouldn't he be? He was an Inquisitor.

I ask because the jango jumpers are able to physically hang with Jedi even though they aren't force sensitive. I'd think the 8th borther was also a force user, but was it ever confirmed?

All the Inquisitors are former Jedi. The Eighth Brother is no exception.

I know that was implied, but if the 8th Brother was a Jango jumper, then isn't it possible that he wasn't necessarily force sensitive? Like I said; the Jumpers were able to physically hang with Jedi (which the 8th Bro did) even though they don't use the force. And on top of that, I don't remember the 8th Brother ever using the force offensively.

Again, the Eighth Brother can use the Force, and is a former Jedi...

I'm sure I can find more, but that should be enough.

Knights of Ren say hello

Hey, one of the KoR hit Ben with a Force push when they first started fighting.

I missed that

But I believe you, plus other posters have mentioned it too.

So most of the Knights are probably comparable to the Eighth Brother when it comes to Force abilities, preferring melee tactics instead.

It was a blink and you'll miss it thing:

I only caught it the second time through(yes, I watched RoS more than once .)


But yeah, using the Force offensively doesn't seem to be their 'go-to' tactic... At least against opponents who are noticeably more powerful than themselves.

Thanks for the gif

Really easy to miss, indeed. I've only seen IX once.

That fight was such a letdown. They were supposed to be the Nazguls of Star Wars... the "sub-bosses" of the Sequel Trilogy.

And they performed worse than Snoke's guards.
