Dude razed an entire world, warping landscape and killing its inhabitants, and the notion that he blew away some random statues is supposed to shock and awe?
Well drain applies on the living and the force itself. Destroying structures kinda suggests a more advanced attack was used and possibly was more related to Vitiate's raw power than rituals.
How on earth is the absence of statues more indicative of raw power and not a ritual?
Obviously the feat is impressive. But this thread is the intellectual equivalent of stepping over a dollar to snatch a penny. Vitiate ate a PLANET. A world. Disintegrating statues isn't exactly earthshattering (pun intended).
Not going to lie, you're starting to sound more and more like LeGenD everyday, Ant, going so far as to talk about what we all thought, as if you knew what was collectively inside our heads.
Bane's ritual in Path of Destruction caused a swath of destruction that consumed a considerable chunk of Ruusan. There's no established rule that I'm aware of that precludes physical carnage as a consequence of rituals.
Yea I'm not sure what the point of this was. He's already eaten a planet. Who cares about statues? I mean it's pretty and shit but doesn't add to the impressiveness of the feat.

Calm down, people were suggesting the feat only targeted living matter to minimise the impressiveness. This proves differently. It makes the attack a little better.
When Vitiate unleashed his power, its intensity even shook the Space Station orbiting the planet Ziost. Therefore, the power may have destroyed lot of stuff on the planet.

Not sure how, considering living things are the only thing that matter in any applicable verses scenario. Nihilus' feat also destroyed buildings, and as noted, people still consider that to not be impressive. People will always call such things unimpressive. This won't change that.
You're both trying way too hard, honestly. I have nothing against Vitiate personally. In fact, no one has anything against Character Trope personally. He's a copy-and-paste character in a MMO, of all things. The point is no one needed this clarified and no one cares, so why did you feel the need to tell anyone what you think they thought?
Though this does go further to legitimizing my belief that most Vitiate fanboys are really here for Revan, and more evidence is never a bad thing.
