How powerful is Starkiller/Galen Marek? I mean, I'm sure there are a lot of people more powerful than him but he seems to be pretty up there. He has killed Vader, could have killed the Emperor but chose not too, killed multiple Jedi, ripped a star destroyer out of the sky, can pick up and crush AT-AT's (I think that's what they're called), can create a shield of electricity, has destroyed legions of troops, pushed over a sand crawler (or whatever the Jawa's use to get around), was able to turn Luke to the dark side, managed to kill that giant creature in the second game, whatever it was called, and even killed Obi-Wan when he became "more powerful than you could possibly imagine." Also, is it just me, or did Starkiller become more powerful when he turned to the dark side in the first games dlc?

  • Well, technically Garen Malek and all the DLCs are considered non-canon by Disney, so all this is merely conjecture. He possessed a very strong connection to the Force, but he was even more skilled with a lightsaber. In a fight against a young Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, he would likely lose. His connection to the force, while exceptionally strong, was nothing compared to Anakin's, and his offensive Lightsaber style would be countered well by Anakin's own. They're both agile fighters, who frequently use telekinesis and force augmented abilities, but frankly, Anakin uses them better. In a fight against Darth Vader, however, he would win almost every time. Vader's midi-chlorian count was drastically decreased when he lost all of his limbs, and his suit greatly hampers his dexterity. Vader's lightsaber form now focuses on raw strength, which would easily be countered by Starkiller's agile form, and Starkiller's force ability now surpassed Vader's. Hopefully that gives you a good estimate of his power. I haven't played the DLCs, but I can still give a good estimation of his power.

  • I got another question: is it possible for General Grevious to use the force? Cause that would be cool.

  • He can't use the force because he is a droid, and he took the lightsabers from Jedi that somehow were killed by him.

  • Grevious was able to take down the Jedi he did through a combination of multiple factors. 1) Underhanded tactics. He had no issue with things like having a MagnaGuard stab a foe in the back or a sniper shoot them down during a fight. 2) Superior stamina/No fatigue. He could theoretically fight for as long as it took, while his organic opponents would wear down and run out of energy. 3) Sheer, raw power.
