Is Sidious the strongest sith lord ever?

Lord said:

Nihilus is pretty powerful... He could destroy planets with the force.

Yes but the fact that he can only do that when he isnt "hungry" just goes to show how weak he is... a true master of the darkside could do that ALL the time.

Yeah Sidious was only strong with lightning

Have you seen him use anything else?
How do you know this?

I hate it when people say things like this... We know absolutly NOTHING about Tulak! This is all we know:

1) He has a tomb in the Vally of the Dark Lords
2) His tomb is guarded by Tuk'ata.

Thats it!
Viea said something about him being a pretty good duelist, but have we seen anything? No...

jeztz have you not played kotor 2 he was the gretaest duelist ever even amongst the great sith lords if sidious is so great than why did he have to disingage his saber just to throw some senate pods

jeeze boys, no reason to go for each others throuts, all you have to do is state you own opinion and then see what everyone else thinks

A good duelist maybe, but have we seen him in action? No...

Do we know about his force ability? NO! Just because he was good with a vibroblade, does not make him the greatest sith ever! Look where it got Maul!

if sidious is so great than why did he have to disingage his saber just to throw some senate pods

Its called a "Why waste energy in your blade when your oponant is running his little green ass off!" sorta thing.

kreia said that the jedi 4000 years ago (her timeline)were but kids compared to the oldies, you have said yourself that the jedi have stayed at about the same level going up to the prequals, the sith are there counter parts so it is logical to say they were at the same level than suddenly out of the blue sidious comes along who is so much more powerful than everyone else.

[Darick]

I don't think sidious is strongest.

No what I said was that the Jedi had not adapted their attitude towards a more modern galaxy... This makes them arrogant, following a code that had not been changed for over 10 millenniums.
This is Anakin's reason for being. He destroys the Jedi and brings ballance to the force, two sith and two jedi.
The two Jedi teach about Qui-Gon's "living force" and thus the teachings of old could be changed... Luke, the leader of the NJO, could teach his students about the living force.
That was the change.
...and btw, Kreia said that the Sith Lords were better duelers back then... not the Jedi... and this was 4000 years BBY!

Dont base your opinions on facts that can be misread.

kreia said that we are all but children playing with toys compared to the ancients that is what she said meaning the exile, sion, revan were all kids compared to the oldies, so the sith went along at that level sion power level lets say which would probably make sence until bane, bane wasn't uber powerful the best ever he was a damn good sith lord, so he trained an apprentice and it went on and on than suddenly a incredible sith lord in sidious came along who was so much stronger than the oldies were did that come from.

You believe Kreia?! All we have is a sith legend that has been passed down through generations. Do you believe the story of Hercules? Troy? etc... No... these stories are only here for a few reasons:

1) To inspire us.
2) a good story
3) So that one can seek more power to become like the hero.

second hand evidence from an old woman is hardly enough.

Sidious is very powerful...and functions like a true Sith would: Secretly. He manipulated his plans through years of paitence and corruption...truly something not to be overlooked...but still there are other Lords that seem to stick out in all our minds in certain areas...so to say that he is the Strongest is something that no one can really verify...

Not really...The True Sith didn't do stuff secretly. Only the new sith did that.

as in the sith species well they were behind the mandalorians wars and probably had something to do with the jedi civil war that is pretty secretive
