Satele Shan runs a gauntlet

Some claim she is one of the most powerful Jedi ever, but how powerful really is she?

Two scenarios:
1) One hour rest between each battle.
2) Full rest

Setting: Naboo plains

1. CW Maul and Oppress
2. DoE Zannah
3. DoE Bane
3. RotS Dooku
4. TFU Vader
5. RotS Sidious

One hour rest, probably stops at Bane.

Full rest, she may get all the way to Sidious.

Maul and Oppress have a good shot to take her down.

Agreed. I also don't see her beating Zannah and certainly not beating Bane.

At best, Satele could win after a tough fight against the brothers. Then she loses handily to Zannah and her sorcery. Satele might be powerful, but she's no Yoda by far.

Just because Bane failed against her Sorcery; doesn't means that others would too.

Last time I checked, Bane wasn't adept in the use of Tutaminis. Satele is and immensely.

Also, keep in mind that someone beats Zannah in RoT lineage.

Lol. You seriously think Satele is on par with Yoda? You know, the jedi who can lift x-wings and outduel Sidious in sabers while stalemating him in a force duel? So what is Satele is skilled at tutaminis? She used it after she was defeated in sabers.

What makes you think Satele has any defense against sorcery?

Is this the best you can come up with? As if I am not aware of this already?

Satele have demonstrated the ability to tear apart gigantic and immensely heavy objects and formations with her powers. She even blocked a lightsaber strike with bare hands. Later on, she developed shatterpoint abilities. A person of her calibre wouldn't find lifting an X-Wing a difficult task.

Sidious have lost to Mace and Luke as well. Yoda's accomplishment isn't unique.

You mean the tentacles? They are made up of dark side energies. Tutaminis grants the ability to absorb energies.

I will comment that, to my knowledge, only two people have used Tutaminis to actually block lightsabers barehanded. Even for people who use Tutaminis well, that is an extremely difficult thing to do, and she did it as a Knight.

Satele's TK is also extremely powerful. When approaching the fortress of Darth Mekhis of the Sith Council, Mekhis closed big blast doors in front of her, so, raised her hand, BLAM, no more blast doors.


I definitely wouldn't say she's very far from Yoda.

Despite being energy those tentacles still went right through a lightsaber. Blocking energy with a lightsaber would be Tataminis would it not? And Bane already tried that and failed.

Lightsaber does have Tutaminis like properties but it isn't going to be effective against every kind of dark side energy based power; it has its limitations.

In contrast, with practitioners of Tutaminis (Force abilities); possibilities are enormous. Such practitioners have demonstrated the capability to use their raw power to absorb harmful energies of different properties including blaster bolt, lightsaber blade and Force Lightning. The power of the Force is going to be greater in effectiveness then any materialistic object.

The properties of tendrils are different from that of Force Lightning but they are also made up of pure dark side energies.

Progress in RoT lineage suggests that someone defeated Zannah too. Where this happened and how this happened remains to be seen.

However, it is also illogical to assume that Zannah could summon tendrils at will in any setting; the setting in this hypothetical conflict is Naboo plains.

It was my understanding that absorbing lightning into a lightsaber was an application of Tutaminis.

well like i think satele wins cus she kinda beat malgus on alderaan, the same malgus who like kinda beat a guy who bulldozed like 6 fully trained sith lords like an offensive lineman and she can prolly swing her lightsaber in a blur so she definitely wins

not any of these folks have feats n quotes that comically outclass hers or anything

Well, considering that every combatant she faces here has showed similar TK or more, I don’t see how that’s relevant...

Also, even if her Force powers are so beastly, she seems to lack greatly in saber prowess. Just image what Bane, Dooku or, stars help her, Sidious would do to her...with a saber wink

Flawless logic...If only more people would see the obvious stick out tongue
