    From Wookieepedia;
    Tulak Hord was renowned for his legendary dueling abilities.[6] Centuries later upon inquiry from Surik, Kreia remarked that Hord was "the greatest lightsaber duelist of the Sith Lords," going on to say that his skill was considered "remarkable even for his time, when many true lightsaber masters lived." Kreia also revealed that if Surik had to face an ancient Sith Lord in combat, she would learn that "we are as children playing with toys compared to the prowess of the old masters." Later, Khem Val revealed to Darth Nox that Hord single-handedly broke the sieges laid by Jedi to Imperial strongholds in the Yn and Chabosh. Over a thousand Jedi perished in these battles.
    Hord was a fearsome master of the dark side. He was extraordinarily competent in the matters of telekinesis; when Darth Nox approached the ruins of the Endar Spire, Khem Val revealed that "The great Tulak Hord once pulled a ship this size from the sky." Hord was also a master of sorcery

    A detail worth mentioning: Tulak Hord developed a sith ritual that allowed him to literally eat the souls of those who died in his vicinity. Adding their force energy and power to his own. Possibly permanently. If he had chosen he could have been Vitiate before Vitiate was even thought of. And more.

    So another feat that is stated in SWTOR was Tulak Hord's ability to spread fear. Whole systems would surrender the moment their force users sensed that he had entered the system. A good play on this might be a scene from the anime Bleach. When someone so much stronger than you arrives, if can feel like your drowning from the overwhelming pressure. Some could fight through it, others lost their minds.

      @@HVLLOW99 Vitiate was born with black eyes and didnt cry as an infant once. When he was a teenager he killed his family and then did a Sith ritual to suck out the life/Force essence of his entire home planet and endow himself with it. He then went to dick around with the Sith for a bit, and even as a newcomer teenager, Marka Ragnos himself was scared to mess with Vitiate, and named him Sith Lord pretty much instantly to placate him. Vitiate then proceeded to live for thousands of years, forming two empires. The True Sith Empire in secret, which Revan and plot of KOTOR reveals was whole reason for Revans story, and the Eternal Empire in secret from the True Sith Empire. His plan was genius. He used the coming of the True Sith as a beacon to get the most powerful Jedi of the time (Revan) to become a Sith and weaken the galaxy so the True Sith could come in and take over, but that was just a ruse so that once everyone was weak enough, his Eternal Empire from Zakuul would show up and stomp on them all. He was a beast in every sense of the word and so powerful he COULD become a force ghost after death cuz he wasnt just embracing the dark side, he used the light too.
      Actually I think the whole, "Empire to weaken everyone then second, real Empire to actually take over" plot is gonna be in EP9 and that's what Palpatine has been planning the whole time. But yeah Krayt is cool too.

    Definitely my all time favourite Sith Lord, even if his legends are less than accurate, I still find the character fascinating. I also respect Exar Kun and Sidious a great deal, but the Dark Lord Hord is just such a righteously compelling warrior, maybe due to the mysteries that surround his unprecedented abilities at the time.

    Don't forget that he lived in an Era, where sith sorcery and alchemy were at an all time high. And were basically sith super weapons. And not only was he an established sorcerer that probably knew some of that. But overcame and dominated it reliably with his swordmanship. He probably even had powerfull artifacts and talismans too that were destroyed or lost. After the hyperspace war.

    Sidious is canon, Tulak Hord legends. Sidious might be most powerful in Canon, but in legends I highly doubt it. Especially when there are beings like Vitiate who's power is almost godlike.
    Plus when Kreia said her famous line to Mitra Surik multiple lightsaber forms already existed.

    You guys hit everything good but you also have to remember that there was a lot of Sith Alchemy happening in the Ancient Ancient you know days of the Sith tulak hord might of Yusuf Alchemy 2 also power his armor so basically he was a lightsaber reflector along with his skills with a blade and his powers with the force that's a remember Sith purebloods can live a long time the oldest that I've heard can live up to 300 years and that was I think Marka ragnos or Lord scourge but still that's a very long time to live and then having a range of over a hundred years is still amazing and taking over a hundred planets and many battles he has seen more battles than most people in the Starwars Universe have had years upon them I just really wish we got a novel about to lock cord or they could somehow bring them into Canon and make a legendary you know story about him as a comic book or novel because I really think that this is a Sith Lord that we need to know about that pioneered every Sith sorcery every Sith magic every great fighting style that we know of witches Form 1 and 2 into the Star Wars Canon and just have them at the Pioneer that started it all and it would be interesting to seeing him in a novel or a live adaptation or at least in a cartoon movie style of Star Wars or heck even a fan film would be beautiful

    Ok so, he had 0 feats other than that he exists. So i made my own breakdown, i will use hype as sorta feats and add some logical head canon
    -Slays 1000 Jedi in 1 battle by himself with assist of khem val, this in itself contradicts makashi which is used for 1v1s at best.
    -Master of sith sorcery, possible immortality via draining rituals.
    -ragdolls a moving destroyer (350+ meters) from atmosphere.
    -"Best Duelist" i would like to believe he had custom form 3 back then which would be like form 8 by modern standards, possible combination of Makashi and Soresu and Ignition / De-ignition combat and telekinetic juggling of 3-4 sabers alongside force speed which would give him huge advantage against well, anyone who faced him for first time since he could block from any side and attack from all sides if he combined all of those together.
    -Judging by his crystal (There is a video on YT about it) he is master at force lightning, since suposedly he needs to steadily output force lightning to charge his saber and make it more powerful than average sabers or it becomes well, almost useless.
    Now for some fan fic
    -This is head canon but makes some sense, and is very possible that he had shatterpoint, it gives him an massive advantage against anyone and makes sense why he would be undefeated, also he possibly mastered force speed more than anyone else and could use it for dueling with his "Form 3"
    -He might just be capable of using some planet destroying techniques like -Thought Bomb (It can be used by pretty much any power house sith assuming they know how)
    -Force Storm (as he was master of force lightning, this makes sense)
    -Hyper Nova (He had some experience with Naga Sadow and Marka Ragnos i believe, but this is unlikely) and he was said to have conquered almost 100 planets so yeah such abilities would explain it.
    So in conclusion, even without head canon he would be comparable to likes of Vitiate, Marka, Exar etc.. would be basically more powerful than any TOR sith with few exceptions and well would be stronger than any and all post TOR sith.
    With head canon, around Valkirion / Exar level easily
    Overall? Underated and well featless which makes people just ignore him as another "scary strong sith from past"

    The best duelists were during Ajunta Pall's era because lightsaber duels between Jedi/Dark Jedi were common place. There were many Makashi masters during this era. After the Dark Jedi were defeated it became very rare for a Jedi to fight another Jedi so Makashi was seen as a waste of time. Later forms such as Soresu became more prominent because of the improvement of blaster technology while lightsaber duels became even more rare.

I don't think it would be difficult for Tulak Hord to be able to rival Yoda or Darth Sidious; especially Darth Vader. Take his lightsaber away, and he can still outmatch them in the Force. Darth Sidious was able to disarm Yoda using the Force alone. Tulak Hord would simply destroy the mere students, that are Yoda ans Darth Sidious, in combat.

The 1000 years of planning and conspiring under the rule of 2 was almost eventless regarding destruction of accumulated Sith knowledge so while overall much lore was lost, the basics and most if not all "common" and even "uncommon" appliances of the force could have been (re)-discovered by the undistrubed rule of 2 followers.

    I'll say this.. Cheve got disarmed twice in cannon.. Once from Windu (and he might have thrown that) and once against Yoda (he did get disarmed tbh but he won the battle of the force so... Yeah). I'd say that they were roughly on the same footing as per knowledge of the force. Yes.. TH knew things that were lost to future generations, but sisious, while not knowing most of those (mostly rituals likely) learned some of the things that were developed from the things that were later lost. Here, we come down to the old arguments of what was better.. General force power and abilities with it, or Sith magic and ritual. And sidius was a user of Sith ritual and magic.. He might not know the deepest mysteries of it but makes up with both shear power and thousands of years of development..
    I think it might be a more even fight then most would think but Sid has more options that could be used at the drop of a hat with less drain on him.. He would probe over and over with "cantrip" effects and find something that his opponent was weak against (if he knew what he was up against) and use that.. He'd find the weakness.. Just cause he could and would likely spam his attacks...
    Hmmmm..
    The more I think about this and other situations like this.. Makes me really wonder just how powerful Leah would have been in the EU if she was trained more as a Jedi sorcerer... Maybe food for thought.. The few that are known in EU are very similar to her (though.. They might have been based off of her personality)

Only another wound in the force was able to resist his drain and tulak was not a wound in the force so he would be easily drained to death by Nihilus. But this is the reason why i think Nihilus is too OP and so is Vitiate for many reasons too. Had your charecter in KOTOR2 (Meetra Surik) not also been a wound in the force, Nihilus may have consumed all life in the galaxy. The only others who may have been able to resist Nihilus Drain are the Yuuzhan Vong, with their near immunity to the Force.

    " Tulak hord didnt really know the deepest mysteries of the dark side" litterly the only one who has ever been able to open one of tulak's holocrons is Darth Revan, so while it is true that we lack specifics on tulak and his abilites its pretty safe to say he knew more than sidious about the force. but for those who blindly says tulak is more powerful than sidious should think some more, sidious was incredably smart and manipulutive while tulak, from what it seems was more up front so there would probably be a big chsnce sidious would be able to manipulate Tulak in some way and kill him and that is also power, i really think more people should play Star Wars The Old Republic since it has quite som lore about this if you psy very good attention of what is said👍 ( sorry for writing this much,had to get it out of my system😂)

    @cadmusravenstag4403 4 роки тому

    In Star Wars there are eras of discovery, dark ages, and then rediscovery. Tulak Hord lived during the golden age of force discovery for the Sith, which ended with the death of Marka Ragnos. Much of that Sith knowledge was lost after the defeat of Naga Sadow. Because it was common place for Jedi and Sith to destroy each other's secrets after wars. By the time of the Galactic Empire, the secrets learned by Hord and his peers during the golden age of force discovery, were still lost. The time of the Galactic Empire was another era of rediscovery for the Sith (or I should say for Sidious). So to say that Sidious would defeat Hord, because Sidious necessarily 'knew' more about the force, is erroneous.

You can't just base the match off of reputation alone. To dispute that Darth Sidious is the most powerful Sith Lord. I would have to say that Darth Plagueis is because it is also referenced that Darth Sidious did not want to face his master head on. You should do Darth Vitiate..

    I would argue against Sidious being the most powerful. Even as far as canon vs Legends on both sides of fence. I would say Vitiate/Valkorion is. Despite thousands of years of disparity, Valkorion was able to do countless things I've never seen Sidious being capable of doing. And his feats sometimes border on Eldritch horror kind of shit and the hearsay about him in universe definitely backs it up. His children too. Which also brings me back to main character of game, definitely op. But I think classic understanding of Sidious by multiple sources is that he's most powerful ever. But SWTOR practically slaps you in the face the entirety of the game and all DLC that Vitiate/Valkorion is borderline god sometimes and that everything, even his multiple deaths are by design or that it was just some old husk he was controlling with his infinite will. I'm open to discussion boss. And you should definitely cover him
