The Eternal Empire saga would be cool as a movie series. Imagine the Republic and Sith at full power fighting together against Zakuul, who’s more powerful than both combined
Arcann: Star Wars's Zuko Half their faces are burned, they have big father issues, they are royalty who have chased someone halfway across the galaxy, and they are redeemed (in Arcann's case, if you spare Senya).
The hurt in Arcann eyes when he knew his anger costed him his best friend , to lose his brother to his own hand. Couldn’t imagine just how broken he must have been at that moment.
Sidious was a psychopath and a tyrant, but he was a wise man, as well. His statement to Anakin of “to understand the great mystery, one must study ALL its aspects…” to only study and utilize one side or the other severely limits the potential of the wielder.
We know that Thexan is the most Prodigy of his siblings, Arcann believed to be inferior and Vaylin the most powerful of her brothers. Some how Arcann is actually the most powerful of the Eternal Children because as a Dark Sider, he nearly kill Valkorion but killed his Brother Thexan instead when he saved Valkorion by force pull Arcann back, he was also more powerful against the Hero of Tython when his enemies aren't. As a Redeemer he keeps up with Vaylin and helped his Mother Senya and the Hero of Tython now known as the Alliance Commander to overthrow Vaylin and later she helped them overthrow Valkorion's Spirit. Arcann and Senya also helped the Hero of Tython saving Satele Shan from Tenebrae Spirit from infecting her and her students and unite Thexan and Vaylin to aid the Hero of Tython and his companions and fight back against their father.
As far as lightsaber skills go, Arcann outclasses her completely. I’m not gonna knock her own skills, but she can’t really compare to a master swordsman like her brother. He trained hard to hone his craft, and he was constantly out on the battlefield. Fighting in various combat scenarios and situations. While by no means would he be able to beat upper echelon duelists like Yoda, Mace Windu, or GM Luke Skywalker, he certainly can compare to them. In terms of his Force powers, Vaylin outstrips him as you said.
@@kevinsanchez4808 Here i agree, with lighsaber she was no match for Arcann, but if we take force in consider .. then the matter became more or less one sided. The interesting fact is that Arcann can leap 70 metters for a less than 2 seconds. The most powerfull foce leap ever. He prove it in battle of Zakuul when he alied with the Outlander.
I dont understand one thing. According Rule of Two, Valkorion must not contain Vaylin. He was immortal anyway. He was already achieve spirit transpher, why he did this to Vaylin ? When the apprentice became more powerfull, then he must take the matle. I don't understand why Valkorion do not respect that rule.
@@gushy7438 The rule of two was established by Darth Bane roughly 1.000 years before the battle of Yavin. SWTOR (and therefore Valkorion, Arcann etc.) takes place roughly 3.600 years before the battle of Yavin. There was no 'need' for a rule of two with millions of sith in the galaxy. ;o)
Lana freed the outlander, not Senya. Also the outlander actually kills Valkorian in the throne room unless you kneel which is more of a dark side version. And one more thing, the turning point for Arcann dying or living is at Voss. You have to keep Senya alive. Killing her makes Arcann dark and you have to kill him in chapter 6. Helping Senya heal Arcann returns him to his light side and he joins you in chapter 6. Good vid though. I would of loved to see more emphasis on all his abilities though. I just love this man!
I like to think of his yellow lighting as force judgement developed from the influence of his mother and brother. Senya emphasizing justice and thexan staying loyal to his brother
Arcann is definitely runner up for the most underrated character in all of Star Wars. Man is comparable to Prime Revan and its debatable who wins between the two. Prime Revan is not Shadows of Revan but him in Echoes of Oblivion. Arcann is above every version of Revan, including SoR, before echoes of oblivion. This video is also misinformed. Arcann was not a darksider he mastered both sides of the Force in a way unique to the Knights of Zakuul. The Zakuulan Knights wielded the Force in a way unique to them and gave them an enormouse edge against the Jedi and Sith. Satele Shan comments on this use of the Force being superior to anything Jedi or Sith are capable of and states Arcann is invincible and the only way to defeat him was to also master both sides of the Force in a manner similar to the Knights of Zakuul. This same Satele was part of a strike team that defeated SoR Revan yet saw Arcann as nigh unstoppable. Arcann also used Tutaminis to an insane degree holding back a weakened yet bloodlusted Valk's extended Force Lightning that was so large in scope it destroyed an entire fleet of nearby ships and anyone nearby with casualties in the thousands. Arcann defended and tanked this attack for a while before succumbing to the blast and falling off the ship. He is seen in the next chapter complete unscathed and in peak shape which takes place directly after this encounter.
Vaylin was scary. What ever happened to Kiara, on the jedi section of the old republic? Did she die while the main character was frozen? Can see that choosing the light or dark severely limits the later force users on both sides. I wonder if any of them (yoda, vader, etc) realized that learning about both would give them more abilities?
Yup, Arcann is one of few that actually BEATS the player character / Outlander in a fair fight, untill the outlander must learn that the Sith / Jedi or whatever teachings they had din't help, but had to learn to fight a enemy beyond the Jedi and Sith, is when the Outlander finally managed to stand a chance. Arcann Defeated the Outlander like 2-3 times already in a fight. Arcann was so much more powerfull then the player character.
if you play though the story as a darkside character, Valkorian tells you that you would be more powerful if you used both the dark and light side of the force... so his view as Valkorian is probably to use the entire force as a whole and not just dark/light sided abilities. I know this probably makes no sense but I think he would have trained Arcann to use the force as a whole and not holding back one side of the force because it was either light or dark... which is probably why Arcann's force lightning was yellow instead of the usual darksided sith colors. Also I think Vaylin was probably more powerful than the brothers, in potential anyways. Valkorian felt the need to limit her powers, but not her brothers, so that's saying a lot...
Lol,try to apply context.He only says that to turn you,he deosnt care about the light side at all. Theres also no balance between Light and dark.The Force Shamans said that the dark side must be destroyed. How could you have been fooled si easely by a fictional character ????
@@plagueisproductions9327 Because both Orders are dogmatic and outdated in their views. “There is also no balance between light and dark” Why? Because the Jedi and Sith said so?
Considering that zakuul knights don't view the force as light and dark and take a different philosophy, it would be likely that he was trained in both the light and darkside of the force.
@@kingatlanofatlantis3075 Because it doesnt make sense.The Force isnt Ying and Yang,Gl himself said that the dark side must be destroyed,Qui Gon he himself is against any ideas of balancing light and dark.In Legends, grandmaster Luke himself says that theres no agrea, you either walk the path or the light or you fall into Darkness.Revan's soul was split simply because you cannot be dark and light.The Bendu himself is a dark sider,the only diffrence being that he does not have The Sith ideology.Your alignement and The Force and your decisions arent the same.Jedi kill people,yet they dont fall,dark siders like Galen have chosen to do selfless things.Gl himself doesnt consider the Jedaii order to be his Star Wars.He himself explains that balance is the optimal state in The Force.Life is at its best when the dark side is not present.But I doubt that you have the discipline to even watch this Video
What I wonder is if Arcann's force potential is derived from Vitiate, or from pre-possession Valkorion. We know Valkorion was originally a powerful Zakuulan warlord, likely very powerful in the Force before being taken over by Vitiate. Vaylin seems to be a direct power-descendant from Vitiate himself, which explains his fear of her. Both Thexan and Arcann, though powerful, never seemed to approach that level of potential. This might also explain Vaylin's explosive temper, even before being imprisoned on Nathema (she kills two Knights of Zakuul by crushing them in their armor in a burst of rage as a young girl - very reminiscent of her father at that age, though less calculating) - she was a daughter not of Valkorion, but of the demonic Vitiate himself.
Yeah she was vitiates force child. Arcann maybe was a child of vitiate and valkorion. Thexan however, was just a child of valkorion and had nothing from vitiate
Would like to add. 1. By the time of Knights of the Fallen Empire, Valkorion no longer cared about the Sith Empire, seen through dialogue in-game. The joint forces between the Sith Empire and the Republic was what's left of the Yavin Coalition Forces back in Shadow of Revan Expansion, lead by the soon Outlander and Darth Marr who's looking for the Emperor after the events in Ziost. 2. The player are allowed to choose between refusing to kneel to Valkorion or kneel to Valkorion, although it has the same outcome. 3. On Voss, Senya survived the ritual that healed Arcann if the player decided to help Senya and Arcann, Arcann healed but he still don't believe the Outlander because he believe the Outlander is not alone after seeing the spirit of Valkorion. If the player choose the other option, Senya will face Mandalorian forces and Lana instead of Knight of Zakuul and Skytroopers, then the Outlander, she was allowed to talk to Valkorion before she died, Arcann escaped and unhealed. 4. Arcann returns depends on the choices in number 3, If the Outlander choose to help Senya, Arcann will join the Outlander. If the Outlander choose not to help Senya, the Outlander will kill Arcann. This takes place later the story. 5. Facing Vaylin also depends on the choices, If Arcann is redeemed, He and Senya will accompany the Outlander on the Spire, if they pick the second option, the Outlander is accompany with Lana and Theron. To take the throne and either become a Hero or Empress/Emperor. I may have missed more but that's all I can give.
There's another continuity in which Senya does not sacrifice her life and lives. She goes on to assist Arcann and the Outlander in defeating Valkorion.
No matter what he told himself, 'Valkorion' was never his true persona. He never truly decided to just be Valkorion, he was just somewhat deluded. In the end, he was the same little boy who murdered his own parents, trapped his father in a box for over a thousand years, and tried to eat the entire galaxy. Had he reclaimed the Eternal Throne as intended, he would've eventually gone back to basics and wanted to devour the entire galaxy anyway, most likely.
This was a rather interesting video. I would very much like to see the Eternal Empire either on the big or small screen, but then again its not just the Eternal Empire, all of the Old Republic needs, no, desperately needs to be made into a live action movie saga or series.
I am actually wondering what would the war between the rebellion and the empire be like if the eternal empire joined it midway through what the eternal fleet destroyed what remained of the empires fleet during key battles which took place in the movies
Valkorion: There is only one Emperor, and he does not suffer pretenders. I think he destroys Palpatine and Vader. The Rebellion just picks a new target to rebel against... the Eternal Empire.
Revan didn't defeat Vitiate lol. Lemme bless you with some actual real info. Revan was betrayed by his companion (forgot the name tbh, Sithari dude) and Exile was killed in the process when they tried to defeat Vitiate. Vitiate then has put Revan in some kind of mind trance prison, where he was (Revan) in a state of trance for 300 years. What Vitiate did, he saw his Empire as a failed project, so he kinda staged his death, but in truth he transfered himself into a man called Valkorion and he built a new empire, Eternal Empire. You're welcome.
I think Valkorion wanted to break his sons, therefore the psychological abuse since their childhood. Breaking them would mean he could extend even more control and use them as weapon. He bound Vaylin's power and I think ultimately the reason was that she was more powerful than him. Arcann and Thexann react differently to this toxic family setup. Arcann wants approval and recognition - in a form he is trying to connect to his parent, and his father's coldness and refusal, abandonment as a parent makes him angrier and angrier until he loses control and lashes out, Thexann tries to save Arcann from making a mistake and Arcann in his blind rage kills his brother. Thexann who seems to be more stoic and regulated emotionally, having strong connection to Arcann, may look like a nicer person from the outside, but I think he just survived differently, maybe more detached from this chaos emotionally, in this harsh family environment. I personally loved the broken family dynamics of Arcann, Thexan, Vaylin, Senya, Valkorion while they are also pretty much the most powerful force users of their time. For me it looked like a promising royal family saga. I would have loved to see more of Zakuul and that storyline.
Do you think you'll actually talk about kotar at some point? I'm just asking cuz I really like that game I found a way to download mods thanks to one of my friends he taught me how to do it now I've been able to play the game as a Jedi at the beginning of the game so much more fun especially when you can use your dark side Powers at the beginning of the game or light mainly dark Force lightning
When Arcann was healed in Shrine of Healing which is on Voss, Senya survived, later she joined the outlander vs Vaylin and Valkorion. Senya never died. Another thing i will add, Valkorion was not a Sith not his family was. He was near God. Valkorion told this to the outlander The outlander: Im not explaining democracy to a Sith. Valkorion: "I am not a Sith, and democracy is overrated.
Off topic question: Is there an actual Light side and Dark side to the Force? Or is the Force just one thing and light side people obey its commands/will and dark side people ignore it?
The Truth Is That : The sides arent philosophies.They "do" exist.When you are force sensitive,it doesnt matter at all what your philosophy is because you must be aligned to a side regardless. What people call the light side is in reality just The Force,theres no light side. What is called the dark side is a perversion of The Force that is used fueled by selfish intentions or emotions. Since the Force is a living entity,it doesnt like Force sensitives messing around and using The Force for selfish purposes since the Force is something collective and not individual. The Chosen One is meant to destroy The Sith because they are the main users of the dark side.The greater The Dark Side.The more The living Force is poisoned.Having too many jedi or no jedi at all doesnt cause imbalance because they obey The Will Of The Force.What causes imbalance is The dominance of The Dark Side in the Galaxy over most living beings.Whenever a dark sider rules most of the Galaxy,theres imbalance.So The Force wants to destroy them but when Jedi are the main leaders in The Galaxy, The Force isnt in imbalance
@@plagueisproductions9327 this is incorrect. The force is both light and dark. The issue with both sides of the force is they are exactly that… extreme polar opposites and not true balance which is exactly what Valkorion tries to teach any force using outlander. Not at all saying he was a good guy but he was correct that using the force requires balance to be truly powerful. As for the chosen one it is NOT his destiny to destroy the Sith that is a misinterpretation his role per the clone wars episodes on Mortis was to MAINTAIN BALANCE between BOTH sides of the force. The reason for this is that light cannot exist without dark and dark cannot exist without light too much of either one side is devastating to the force as a whole there must be balance between the two or there will be chaos. That chaos has a name… Abeloth the self-made celestial of chaos
Exaxtly this. Although the game doesn't do Arcann justice in representing the full scope of Arcann's power, you can read the incredible long list of his abilities on wiki. Arcann was an absolute beast and I wish they showed more of him this way and how powerful he really was.
Isn't he related to the corellian jedi? I think I read that some place. Most of them are descendants of his? which would be HI-FREAKING-LARIOUS because.. the ONLY jedi order to NEVER have a member fall to the dark side.. is descended from a dark jedi.
Be awesome if they actually made a game that would make give the old game Justice, and by that I mean that they should make a rated M for mature game, with all the nitty gritty stuff, dismemberment etc. You name it
what I don't understand is that vitiate was present during darth nox rise to power. But he said it was after revan fought vitiate which was I believe it was many decades before. So its kind of conflicting
Arcann is twice more powerfull than Sidious, i don't understand why everybody think that Sidious is ultimate Sith. Now, Vaylin is 3 times more powerfull than Arcann, only Valcorion is more powerfull than her. Little facts here, Vaylin can rip Sidious in half only with the force, she can desintegrate his body with the force. Valcorion can kill Sidious with just one single lightning strike. Plus you cannot kill Valcorion with a lighsaber or the force, he can create energy shield with the force. Valcorion killed Darth Marr who was the ultimate Sith with one single lightning shot. So those who believe that Sidious is ultimate Sith, well they are very very wrong.
@Lytral Well, Disney Star Wars is not star wars. The real SW was episodes 4,5 and 6. After that everything is garbage. I understand Lucas selling this for bilions, but .. he will regret that to his last day. Disney killed kils baby. About bigger hitters, i read that after Darth Marr was hit from Valk, he was crisp. Inside his armour his body was just ash. Also i wanna ask is there a ranking who has the biggest lightning power between Sidious and Darth Bane ? I'm not sure Sudious was more powerull than Bane at lightning. For force i am sure Darth Bane was far ahead.
All 3 of his kids could probrobly solo both the jedi and sith coucils attacking them at once. Note that the people on these councils could match Yoda and sidious.
Valkorian would’ve just used Thexan to continue to conquer, knowing that he would never rise against him. You would’ve fought him in Chapter One of KOTFE and probably lose when Valkorian joined Thexan in fighting you
*Me chewing furiously chewing on a snack while screaming in my head that Revan didn't beat Emperor Vitiate* X_X But yea Revan didn't beat Vitiate. He lost. Badly. And got imprisoned for 300 years.
I always believed that Arcane was haunted by the death of his brother and could have turned to the light and be redeemed and learn to forgive himself for cutting down his brother and finding peace in the end
Well, u said Arcann killed Valkorion ? That's not true. The Outlander did. Check your story again. Valkorion was bissy with Arcann and that gave a chance outlander to stab him in the back. Which was the Valkorion plan. Arcann was powerful but the ultimate power was in Vaylin. The only one who was more powerful than Arcann and Vaylin was Revan reborn, when we exclude Valkorion of course.
The Eternal Empire saga would be cool as a movie series. Imagine the Republic and Sith at full power fighting together against Zakuul, who’s more powerful than both combined
Imagine if the Eternal Empire was still around by the time of the Clone Wars. That would be a sight to see
The Eternal Empire should have the Clone Wars Treatment.
@@darylsdesigns6679 that would hurt lol

Arcann: Star Wars's Zuko
Half their faces are burned, they have big father issues, they are royalty who have chased someone halfway across the galaxy, and they are redeemed (in Arcann's case, if you spare Senya).
Facts.
And Vaylin is Azula. Although, I think Valkorion liked Arcan better because he wasn't a threat to his power like Vaylin was.
The hurt in Arcann eyes when he knew his anger costed him his best friend , to lose his brother to his own hand. Couldn’t imagine just how broken he must have been at that moment.
He was so broken that He became vulnerable to his fathers dark influence, turning him into a weapon of hate and darkness
he bacame like darth vader in a way
Sidious was a psychopath and a tyrant, but he was a wise man, as well. His statement to Anakin of “to understand the great mystery, one must study ALL its aspects…” to only study and utilize one side or the other severely limits the potential of the wielder.

True. He only spared the galaxy bc He wanted to inhabit the outlander. But once that was done, He would have struck

Valkorion reminds me a little of Star Wars's Suleiman the Magnificient ;d
Will we get a video on Vaylin and Senya?
Revan didn't defeat Vitiate lol. Lemme bless you with some actual real info.
Revan was betrayed by his companion (forgot the name tbh, Sithari dude) and Exile was killed in the process when they tried to defeat Vitiate.
Vitiate then has put Revan in some kind of mind trance prison, where he was (Revan) in a state of trance for 300 years.
What Vitiate did, he saw his Empire as a failed project, so he kinda staged his death, but in truth he transfered himself into a man called Valkorion and he built a new empire, Eternal Empire.
You're welcome.
The Sith who betrayed Revan and Meetra was Lord Scourge.
The twin brothers idea is genius
This was something I've been curious about. I never played the games so it was cool to learn about the brothers
I think Valkorion wanted to break his sons, therefore the psychological abuse since their childhood. Breaking them would mean he could extend even more control and use them as weapon. He bound Vaylin's power and I think ultimately the reason was that she was more powerful than him. Arcann and Thexann react differently to this toxic family setup. Arcann wants approval and recognition - in a form he is trying to connect to his parent, and his father's coldness and refusal, abandonment as a parent makes him angrier and angrier until he loses control and lashes out, Thexann tries to save Arcann from making a mistake and Arcann in his blind rage kills his brother. Thexann who seems to be more stoic and regulated emotionally, having strong connection to Arcann, may look like a nicer person from the outside, but I think he just survived differently, maybe more detached from this chaos emotionally, in this harsh family environment. I personally loved the broken family dynamics of Arcann, Thexan, Vaylin, Senya, Valkorion while they are also pretty much the most powerful force users of their time. For me it looked like a promising royal family saga. I would have loved to see more of Zakuul and that storyline.
Thank you very much for this video, I have long wanted to know who this guy's were and their connection to the grand tale of the old republic
This channel is better than anything Disney has made.
Arcann is one of my favorites characters in star wars old republic
Do you think you'll actually talk about kotar at some point? I'm just asking cuz I really like that game I found a way to download mods thanks to one of my friends he taught me how to do it now I've been able to play the game as a Jedi at the beginning of the game so much more fun especially when you can use your dark side Powers at the beginning of the game or light mainly dark Force lightning
This is such a great story such a shame they never made a movie out of this
I was under the impression that Senya may have practiced form 6 since there were moves like force pushes involved
When Arcann was healed in Shrine of Healing which is on Voss, Senya survived, later she joined the outlander vs Vaylin and Valkorion. Senya never died.
Another thing i will add, Valkorion was not a Sith not his family was. He was near God. Valkorion told this to the outlander
The outlander: Im not explaining democracy to a Sith.
Valkorion: "I am not a Sith, and democracy is overrated.
Looking forward to part 2:
The yellow lightning of force judgement indicates righteous judgement. Maybe arcann didnt feel anger when using it
“Twin in white, who ironically adhered more to the dark side” …. Lmaoo no not so ironic my friend lmao but GREAT VID.
Off topic question: Is there an actual Light side and Dark side to the Force? Or is the Force just one thing and light side people obey its commands/will and dark side people ignore it?
No there is sides like hell even planets have an attraction to a certain aspect of the force
Play the Kotor 2.
That will answer your question.
The Truth Is That :
The sides arent philosophies.They "do" exist.When you are force sensitive,it doesnt matter at all what your philosophy is because you must be aligned to a side regardless.
What people call the light side is in reality just The Force,theres no light side.
What is called the dark side is a perversion of The Force that is used fueled by selfish intentions or emotions.
Since the Force is a living entity,it doesnt like Force sensitives messing around and using The Force for selfish purposes since the Force is something collective and not individual.
The Chosen One is meant to destroy The Sith because they are the main users of the dark side.The greater The Dark Side.The more The living Force is poisoned.Having too many jedi or no jedi at all doesnt cause imbalance because they obey The Will Of The Force.What causes imbalance is The dominance of The Dark Side in the Galaxy over most living beings.Whenever a dark sider rules most of the Galaxy,theres imbalance.So The Force wants to destroy them but when Jedi are the main leaders in The Galaxy, The Force isnt in imbalance
@@plagueisproductions9327
@@plagueisproductions9327 this is incorrect. The force is both light and dark. The issue with both sides of the force is they are exactly that… extreme polar opposites and not true balance which is exactly what Valkorion tries to teach any force using outlander. Not at all saying he was a good guy but he was correct that using the force requires balance to be truly powerful. As for the chosen one it is NOT his destiny to destroy the Sith that is a misinterpretation his role per the clone wars episodes on Mortis was to MAINTAIN BALANCE between BOTH sides of the force. The reason for this is that light cannot exist without dark and dark cannot exist without light too much of either one side is devastating to the force as a whole there must be balance between the two or there will be chaos.
That chaos has a name… Abeloth the self-made celestial of chaos
I'd love to see this guy vs starkiller
Exaxtly this. Although the game doesn't do Arcann justice in representing the full scope of Arcann's power, you can read the incredible long list of his abilities on wiki. Arcann was an absolute beast and I wish they showed more of him this way and how powerful he really was.
RICK LONG CANBERRA NERDS INC ! 😀 KAMBAH REPS !
Isn't he related to the corellian jedi?
I think I read that some place. Most of them are descendants of his?
which would be HI-FREAKING-LARIOUS because.. the ONLY jedi order to NEVER have a member fall to the dark side.. is descended from a dark jedi.
Disney shouldn’t have tried the “pick up where Lucas left off” model, I feel like there’s far more interest in an old republic film series
THIS should be the next trilogy!!!
I know it’s not possible at all but I just would love a film of Sidious in these times and fighting sith and jedi. Would be so dope.
Be awesome if they actually made a game that would make give the old game Justice, and by that I mean that they should make a rated M for mature game, with all the nitty gritty stuff, dismemberment etc. You name it
How about a video on Thexan?
Arcann is my favorite in sw.
Am I the only one who heard him say darth maul instead of darth marr 7:03
Hey man Kendo could be used for a light sabre
Heck Yeah!
Just goes to show how strong the outlander is
what I don't understand is that vitiate was present during darth nox rise to power. But he said it was after revan fought vitiate which was I believe it was many decades before. So its kind of conflicting
what is the name of that dark SOundtrack in the backround PLEASE
Is this a movie/show or a game? If so whats it called
What music do you use? I like it, can anyone tell me the name of this dark theme?
Do him vs Raven
dunno... swtor suggests that zakuul was a force nexus of both light and darkside in balance. the knights of zakuul were all trained with this balance.
Arcann is twice more powerfull than Sidious, i don't understand why everybody think that Sidious is ultimate Sith.
Now, Vaylin is 3 times more powerfull than Arcann, only Valcorion is more powerfull than her.
Little facts here, Vaylin can rip Sidious in half only with the force, she can desintegrate his body with the force. Valcorion can kill Sidious with just one single lightning strike. Plus you cannot kill Valcorion with a lighsaber or the force, he can create energy shield with the force.
Valcorion killed Darth Marr who was the ultimate Sith with one single lightning shot.
So those who believe that Sidious is ultimate Sith, well they are very very wrong.
every jedi or sith master in the old republic puts Sidious to shame
@Lytral Well, Disney Star Wars is not star wars. The real SW was episodes 4,5 and 6. After that everything is garbage. I understand Lucas selling this for bilions, but .. he will regret that to his last day. Disney killed kils baby. About bigger hitters, i read that after Darth Marr was hit from Valk, he was crisp. Inside his armour his body was just ash.
Also i wanna ask is there a ranking who has the biggest lightning power between Sidious and Darth Bane ?
I'm not sure Sudious was more powerull than Bane at lightning. For force i am sure Darth Bane was far ahead.
Vaylin..... it's actually rather disturbing to think about, just how many NSFW fantasies I had about her, back when I was young and stupid 😅
Looking forward to his Sister she is a powerhouse
The judgment of darkness has arrived
I killed him as a Sith Inquisitor
I redeemed Arcan and I felt so bad for vaylin I wanted to redeem her too tbh
In my opinion Sidious empire wouldve not stand a chance against the Eternal Empire. They were absolute monster warriors
Didnt know the rule of 2 was a thing before Darth Bane
So is this canon, does it proceed the events of the skywalker saga
Ok what game is this?
🔥🔥🔥
All 3 of his kids could probrobly solo both the jedi and sith coucils attacking them at once. Note that the people on these councils could match Yoda and sidious.
Dam we need a video game
Senya doesnt die, at least in one of the versions
Cool
Rule of 2. Simple explanation for anyone who doesn't want to waste their time.
Darth Viciates New Sith Warrior Wrath kicked his azz easily.
I think the other bother was stronger and just was not in a state of mind to expect his brother to go full intent to kill on him.
So the dark side is so powerful 5:56
Eternal Emperor seems like a strong guy from Warhammer 40k universe who end up at a wrong dimension. This must be doing of The Pal.
I wonder how things would’ve turned out if Thexan was the one to slay Arcann when the twins fought in the throne room
Valkorian would’ve just used Thexan to continue to conquer, knowing that he would never rise against him. You would’ve fought him in Chapter One of KOTFE and probably lose when Valkorian joined Thexan in fighting you
@@garyfrombrooklyn Thexan wouldnt need Valk's help to beat Outlander. He can beat Outlander at that point in the story.
*Me chewing furiously chewing on a snack while screaming in my head that Revan didn't beat Emperor Vitiate* X_X But yea Revan didn't beat Vitiate. He lost. Badly. And got imprisoned for 300 years.
Thexan was better. In a fair fight he woulda kicked arcans ass
Where can I watch this cinematic????
Look up Star Wars the old republic knights of the fallen emperor
I’d recommend all of the cut scenes from Star Wars the old republic they are amazing!!
who is the outlander? The jedi knight?
Dude better than vader and kylo
So valkorian was possessed?
Perhaps he was dark grey not totally dark side though
Theres no dark gray.There is only light and dark.He was a clear darksider.His intentions dont matter.
NNNNNNOOOOOOO
I always believed that Arcane was haunted by the death of his brother and could have turned to the light and be redeemed and learn to forgive himself for cutting down his brother and finding peace in the end
He did, in KOTET you can save Arcann and he becomes a companion. I even have him at max level.
Well, u said Arcann killed Valkorion ? That's not true. The Outlander did. Check your story again. Valkorion was bissy with Arcann and that gave a chance outlander to stab him in the back. Which was the Valkorion plan.
Arcann was powerful but the ultimate power was in Vaylin. The only one who was more powerful than Arcann and Vaylin was Revan reborn, when we exclude Valkorion of course.
