Dooku inflict Shock?

So, I don't know why Palpatine can inflict Shock and Dooku cant. Dooku's force lighting was not as powerful as Palpatine, but it was in no way weak. In the Clone Wars episode: Crisis on Naboo, S4 Ep. 18, 4 Ig-100 magma guards are pressing in an electro staff into Anakin, and he launches them off like they're nothing. (Those staffs can counter lightsabers so they're not nothing) and Dooku, disturbed by Anakin's tenacity, launches him into the wall and electrocutes him until he passes out. This to me shows that Dooku's force lighting is powerful. Granted not as powerful as Palp but still. His Force Lighting ability should inflict shock.
  • I agree. Dooku used to be great but his time has passed. This could make him relevant again and he could possibly work under a palpatine lead.
  • Yeah with Dooku being fast, he could throw in that shock before Palp even goes, putting one person on 2 turn stun. Never liked how the 2 turn stun was almost irrelevant because Palp never gets to throw out those shocks before AoE.

    Under a Palp lead, he will heal a lot, esp if stunning Jedi counters. His weak hp wont be much issue then

  • I don't have either but I think this would be a nice addition, since dooku is almost unheard of in arena now.

    He won't heal with buffs inflicted on counters. It is only during their turn.
  • Because nobody likes Dooku. And if the dodge meta somehow makes a comeback I will probably quit.
  • I wouldn't be against it, I like dooku both in the movies/cartoons and in-game. I could foresee dooku getting a cool zeta ability. I recommended in another thread giving dooku 100% more damage on basic if enemy is debuffed. This would give him nice Sith synergy, and make his frequent attacks actually meaningful
