MarcheseAMM Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Body Form =/= Spirit Form There's a difference between the 2 in power. He was awed as greater then Tulak Hord in body form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfninjajedi Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) He was awed as greater then Tulak Hord in body form. Tulak Hord who?.... Exactly that guy really has nothing on him other than character statements. Edited December 14, 2014 by Wolfninjajedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcheseAMM Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Tulak Hord who?.... Exactly that guy really has nothing on him other than character statements. Nah, his main hype is from characters but... "Lord of Hate, Master of the Gathering Darkness and Dark Lord of the Sith. These are but a few of the titles worn by the great Tulak Hord. His command of the dark side and mastery of lightsaber techniques won Hord many battles, and each victory earned him enemies abroad and within the Sith ranks. Of the many who challenged his might, none were successful." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "...In his time as Dark Lord of the Sith, Tulak Hord was known as a master of the mystical dark arts of the Force..." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "The secrets behind Tulak Hord's great power were many, and they all but vanished from the galaxy with the Dark Lord's death. Generations of Sith have obsessed over unearthing his ancient teachings and artifacts, but Tulak Hord hid them well." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "Lord of Hate, conqueror of the planets Yn and Chabosh, and master of Sith Sorcey..." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Encyclopedia "His...mastery of lightsaber techniques won Hord many battles, and each victory earned him enemies abroad and within the Sith ranks. Of the many who challenged his might, none were successful." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "Tulak Hord-a mighty Sith Lord with legendary lightsaber skills..." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Encyclopedia "One of Khem Val's proudest victories came during the Battle of Chabosh, where he fought by Tulak Hord's side to conqueror an army of Jedi 1,000 strong." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Encyclopedia "In the battles of Yn and Chabosh, Tulak Hord is believed to have used a ritual to draw the strength of his enemies to himself, growing his power and vitality. One ritual of Tulak Hord’s gets only a scant mention in the histories, but is the subject of myth and legend–a ritual rumored to grant eternal life. No one has ever managed to uncover this mythical ritual, let alone perform it." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "Incidents of Sith Lords imbuing their most precious possessions with some fragment of their dark power appear throughout Sith history. Such ritual imbuement can be used to inflict all manner of trouble on those who would steal these terrible treasures. The Dark Lord of the Sith Tulak Hord was especially known for this practice, and many possessions of Tulak Hord’s have driven their discoverers to madness throughout the years. Tulak’s Madness is unique in who it affects, however; ignoring whether a person’s spirit is dark or light, it afflicts only the weak-willed, driving them to delusions of grandeur and eventual self-destruction." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Codex Entry "Lord of Hate, conqueror of the planets Yn and Chabosh, and master of Sith Sorcey..." ―Star Wars The Old Republic Encyclopedia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nice...but we don't have any clue just how great Horde was. Yeah his skill with a saber is legendary....compared to....who now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcheseAMM Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Damn this game hypes the **** out of him. Yep. His slaughter of the Jedi on Chabosh is probably the second greatest combat slaughtering of numbers feat, first being Luke Skywalker on Datooine during the Yuuzhan Vong War. He's a pretty BAMF.

That's great and all, but it's not like other characters don't have pretty much that exact same thing stated about them, only they also have the feats against actual opponents to back that up. Anyway, back on topic now Edited December 14, 2014 by Wolfninjajedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great and all, but it's not like other characters don't have pretty much that exact same thing stated about them, only they also have the feats against actual opponents to back that up. I am with Wolf on this, ya ok so he is marked as a legendary swordsman, even the 1000 Jedi he was clearly not alone as Kem was with him.... who else was there? Was it just Kem, well we can Assume so, but you know what they say about Assuming..... Everything else is just people saying... that guy was awesome..... but not much of any substance..... Legendary swordsman.... ok Awesome so were dozens if hundreds of other sith and Jedi over the 20,000 years of History from the start of the Jedi. He was a master of Mystical Dark side powers... a claim almost every Dark Council Member has + more... the amount of people who share these claims is to large. Yes I will not doubt that he is probably above a good portion of people, HOWEVER, his accolades are unmeasured and untested do to not enough information all around that Era. Will I deny him POTENTIALLY being in the same league as Kun, no..... but I wont go out and straight say he is, the issue is with out more info using Hord at all is just to much guess work.

LadyKulvax Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 The problem here is that Kun's style isn't just Niman it's much more complex than that. Furthermore we can argue whom is superior in the Force but Kun's force defenses have not failed him once, be it sorcery attacks, sever force attacks or a starfighter assault.
