A thread where we can all post showings related to speed in the SW Universe. An example would be Aryn Leneer, who was able to amplify her reaction time in the Milliseconds. Comparable to that would be Anakin Skywalker, who in a dog-fight also increased his reaction time to be in the Milliseconds. Darth Bane's reactions was in the Microseconds, and finally Grandmaster Luke Skywalker had a reaction time in the Nanoseconds. Anything else worth noting?

I would prefer more quantifiable speed feat showings tbh, those are a bit hard to quantify. Things like "Weaving a hard light" I mean.

Anyways I guess a solid high-mid tier Jedi should have Millisecond reaction time, High tiers should have microsecond reaction time to reaching relativistic speeds (If you take the statements made in the ROTS Novelization at face value) to top tiers having Nanosecond reactions time, which is faster than even the speed of Light.

But why not? The narration states that's what their reaction time is. Although I would like to note how interesting is to see a boards different opinion on this. On other boards your generic Jedi has lightspeed reaction times. On others not even GM Luke is Supersonic.

Can someone provide the quote where supposedly Luke and Abeloth fought so fast that nanoseconds were slow for them? All I remember is Luke processing a thought in barely a nanosecond.

My love, we never talk anymore. Luke when he felt the Dovin Basal registered it in Nanoseconds. In his fight with Abeloth a Nanosecond barely passed when Luke dodged an attack from her, and then there was another nanosecond feat, I just don't remember it. So he has Lightspeed combat speeds. Bane can be scaled to other high tier Sith with his Microsecond reaction feats, which puts him and others at sub relativistic.

Why? Although moving at such a speed does sound wonky, so more or less I can agree, but for the bigger names it's not dumb.
The precog however, should be more easier to understand. So in that sense, the general Force User should be able to see things move at such speeds, but they necessarily don't have to have the speed to avoid or react to it.

Jedi only struggle because they essentially go for not wanting to kill, Sith usually get cocky or there are just overwhelming numbers, or the said Non-Sensitives have something in their favor that give an edge be it prep or tech related.
There's also being unorthodox with methods too.
Which then these Non-Force Sensitives would be above your average guy if they have access to such things, let's not compare every single Non-Sensitive being to a thug here.
Also of course, sometimes plot too.
