Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums > General > The Lounge > Star Wars Question! Who is the most powerful Darth?

[Elite Lord Sigma]

I would say that Palpatine is the most powerful of the Dark Lords in the movies. Which other villains do you know that suceeded in almost entirely destroying the heroes, corrupting the Chosen One, taking over almost the entire galaxy, and almost suceeding in becoming the supreme ruler of the universe, all while slowly corrupting the Republic from the inside out?

I don't read the books or comics.

For the video games, Revan wins. The main character of KOTOR is actually Revan himself. He's one of the few Sith that fought not out of greed or lust for power, but to try to save the galaxy. He's also one of the few Sith that have managed to turn back to the light side of the Force after falling to the dark side. Destroying the entire Sith Empire and the Star Forge as nearly a one-man army is also pretty damn impressive.

For me, Darth Maul. Hes half bad-ass, half kick-ass, well really now hes just 2 halves. he was the first sith lord I saw do battle. And hes got an awesome design. ONly reason he lost was because he under-estimated Obi Wan. If he didn't, Vader would have never existed. And he had a dual lightsaber. That kicked ass.



Is it just me or does talon look like a mix between Ayala and Darth Maul?

Indeed, there are few games in which the player has ever controlled a character more insanely powerful, given what that character was able to accomplish, than the final "chapter" of KoTOR.

Spoiler: Sith minion: "I have news of the Jedi."
Darth Malak: "Did our droids pass their test?"
Sith minion: "No."
Darth Malak: "Strange..."
Sith minion: "It was Revan, Master."
Darth Malak: "Yes, that would explain it. Send out all the troops."
Sith minion: "Do you think they could stop Revan?"
Darth Malak: "OF COURSE NOT!!! But they'll buy me time to fully prepare the Star Forge's defenses."

Classic.

Darth Nihilus destroyed whole planets with the force alone, if I remember it correctly. You can't get much stronger than that, imho.

[Bloodline666]

I'd have to say Darth Sidious, as he manipulated the Clone Wars right under the noses of both the Senate AND the Jedi, and also kept his true identity as a Sith Lord a secret from the Jedi for a LONG, LONG TIME.

yes, Nihilus pwned all

[Nominus Experse]

Nihilus consumed entire planets. Some say that he was without control, but it must be then mentioned that he was capable of using the force to lift his ENTIRE flagship from its orbit around the planet of Malachor V, and kept it together even though it was not space-worthy. He also fought with an aggressive one-handed stance.

He may have been the most powerful.

I have to go with Vader
