tunewalker Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Which is why I said its inconclusive. That is effectively my point. We have no evidence to suggest that Fay can't perform Vader level feats and we can't use that as a basis for saying to can't. Noting the fact that she has displayed high levels of TK with relative ease demonstrates it as possible. always be careful of that word possible. with that logic any one who has shown high levels of TK mastery could theoretically be on Vader's level with it and didnt much opportunity to show it or just chose not to. While it is true the absences of evidence is not evidence of absence. We can not put a character over another character for something they never did. Example like Fay over who ever for TK feats she never preformed. If some one has better feats then her in any particular field then we take that at face value, we cant judge her abilities based on what she didnt do, and as I have said multiple times every power is very different each one needs to be judged seperately before being put into the catagory and THEN looked at as a whole. If we start judgeing people on stuff they DIDN'T do we could be typing for eternity. 12:15- 12:38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I'm instead comparing their talents in Force Healing and connection to the Living Force in general, and rejecting the argument that Vader's TK showings and those alone is basis for saying his more powerful than Fay. EDIT: However such a stance can't be held if it were Fay being as powerful as Vader in TK is impossible, which is why I was explaining that is is possible based on the evidence we actually have, not proven but possible.

Beniboybling Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) Anyway I'd really like to move on here. We have several options here: 1. We place Fay in the recommended position. 2. We leave her as she is. 3. We boot her off the list. So what's it gonna be? I'm open to all three options.

I know I just want people to remember to focus on what we can judge and not what we cant.... focusing on what we cant just takes to darn long and gets every body no where.

I feel that the information on her is too limited to accurately judge her in the face of her competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beniboybling Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) OK, well that's three for 1. and 2 for 3. So I guess we'll go with one. Anyway, the penultimate article is up, and I'll be posting a lightsaber version of this thread shortly. EDIT: I also expect that decision to be influenced by the discussion going on on Legends thread. Edited July 2, 2014 by Beniboybling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aurbere Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Hmm... next article. I haven't done full research on Mace Windu, but my initial thoughts are this: Meetra > Revan > Mace. In all honesty, if we choose to take the original Clone Wars series with a heaping of salt, I'd say that Dooku is more powerful than Mace. Granted Dooku doesn't get the recognition he deserves in this field, but that's a discussion for another time. So, yes, I'll agree to this article until I do some more research.

Warren-Stride Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Note that I'm not asking for a list of who you think the most powerful Jedi are. I'm in no place to vote on this because I've had little involvement in the discussion, but my thoughts are basically this. I feel like we're basing our evaluation of Master Fay off of too much of what we THINK. In other words, what we're assuming. There's not really enough information (for me, at least) to make a judgment about how powerful she is because I feel like I'm having to fill in a lot of gaps myself. Just my opinion.

That said, his TCW counterpart has impressive showings. In brief: Pushes an AT-TE off a cliff. Levitates a pair of clonetroopers over a large distance Force Pushes a dozen or so battle droids and interestingly, they implode on impact. Proceeds to drop a massive door on an AAT, crushing it. So still fairly impressive. I also I still think he could probably tear droids apart with his hands. P.S. Dooku is in the final article, recognition incoming.

Here's one I've found real quick: Force Throws two large trees like their nothing. I'll have to do some more research, but maybe I'll reassess my first opinion. To the PS, Most excellent.

This is interesting because I myself find Dooku more impressive than Mace in both Saber and definitely in use of Force Powers - he just looks more Technically Adept in both Spheres......

Aurbere Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I think we can afford to have two discussions up at a time, so I'm gonna bump this one.

I'm not entirely sure about putting Meetra above Mace. Revan? Yes, but not sure on Meetra. She seems more of a blademaster than Force user. And, yes, Kyp Durron most certainly goes above Nomi. I'm pretty sure he manipulated a Dovin Basal like Luke did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, otherwise Mace > Sidious > Yoda, and that's ridiculous to be honest. I can make a comparison I guess, meh. Edit: TBH they're close either way, the overhype of Nomi and underestimation of Kyp is much more important.
