Star Forge vs Malachor V

Which dark side nexus was stronger?

Which one held greater secrets?

Which one was more dangerous to the galaxy in terms of the threats it spawned?

Fools on both sides. All who thought the Star Forge a mere weapon, they didn't know. They never wanted to know.

It is the seed of worlds. Such power, even in a fragment...

A fleet, that's what I made of it. Almost laughable now. What of its smallest piece? It cannot build ships, no; What useless fragments does it generate?

Air. Life.

It feeds on the Force, on energy, on mass, on whatever you give it. And it creates. That is its nature.

It begins where we all began. A breath of air, a drop of water, the first chains of carbon.

Why bother with fleets, when one day we might build our own galaxies?

The Star Forge, and it isn't even close.

Yeah, it's pretty evident that its technological capabilities vastly outstrip a dead world's, lmao.

What about the nexus or Force-based secrets that it holds? I think these are the ones that are genuinely debatable.

Malachor probably holds more secrets, there is bound to be vast hordes of knowledge buried within the Trayus academy.

The Star Forge was a wound in the Force that threatened the Force's existence too, BTW.

Is it now? That's interesting.

Though the reason why I consider Malachor V "was more dangerous to the galaxy in terms of the threats it spawned" isn't merely because it could destroy the force but rather because it also spawned Revan's Sith army.

"There is no one left with the power to control the Forge, though many have tried. I have watched them be devoured, their life drained from them as they attempt to tap into its power. Knowing what we do of the Builders and their fate, I am convinced that Revan did not intend us to keep the Star Forge. To use it would mean the end of the Sith... and the end of the Force."

It's from the dark side version, but I doubt the Star Forge's function is different in the light side version.

That was a joint effort of Malachor V and the Star Forge, tbh.

Malachor got the Sith warriors. The Forge got the Sith droids. wink

Fair point, though. thumb up

Ah, so now you embrace DS in the KotOR games? Wonderful, lol.

Also, that quote doesn't prove it's a Wound in the Force.

Droids don't compare to the Sith, lmfao.

Pretty sure spawning Nihilus and the rest of the Sith Triumvirate would've been deadlier, tbh, especially thanks to the Drew Karpyshyn's stupid retcon making the Triumvirate kill tens of thousands of Jedi.

Ah, yes, I remember that now. Interesting indeed.

And of course, though by Sith army I was referring to the dark Jedi rather than the droids and much of his fleet that the SF would later create.
