Who are the most powerful Star Wars characters canon AND Legends and why?

I can't say who is the most powerful - I haven't read, played or watched every story! But I would say characters like Darth Sidious, able to take down two lightsaber wielding, fearsome opponents such as he did, killing one, is very powerful indeed. Possibly inducing dark future dreams for Anakin, urging Anakin to kill his own apprentice, or Dooku to kill his. Urging Luke to kill his own apprentice, or torturing him, likely to the point of death, after he made his decision. Then, there's obviously Vader, able to destroy a room full of Rebels, using the Force and a lightsaber very effectively. Taking on his former apprentice, while both seemed to perform rather well, despite one ending up, at one point, better than the other. Or, killing an Imperial from an incredibly far distance, or matching his Master Obi-Wan in battle. But, what do you think? Of canon characters, Legend characters, all mediums, who're the most powerful - and why?

    Grogu will grow to be more powerful in the Force than all others before him... and then we'll all be left wondering where he was when the First Order reared its head... and we'll keep on wondering and wondering... cuz even Disney doesn't know...


    That is one of the big issues with having so many Jedi survive Order 66. Where were they during Episode 4-6 and why did Yoda just say there was another. Should’ve he have said there are dozens of others?


    Yoda probably meant thy only Luke and Leia had any real chance of defeating Vader and Palpatine as other Jedi tried and not only failed miserable but fueled Vader’s hate when they were fought by him. No matter how many traps, ambushes, or plots the surviving Jedi tried it always ended with a win for Vader and more dead jedi.


    What about Ahsoka?


    Ahsoka doesn't count because she didn't even exist when they were making the movies lol. But ye, she's already proven she coulda taken it on.
  • Judging by the fact that darth vader passively make enemies around him slower and less agile he would be an easy win against any jedi he came across.

    Both ahsoka and Kel Kestis really heavily on their agility to win fights
    Ahsoka is only slightly powerful enough to beat him but has inner conflict because of being abused by anakin. And ahsoka did technically die from DV but was able to be pulled out of time by Ezra due to the fact that she didn't save anyone by her death.
    Both Ezra and Kanaan had trouble even lasting a few seconds against Darth Vader.

    I am not certain of any other jedi besides Luke and Leia that survived 66.

    I think the Trilogy pointed out that Darth Vader couldn't be killed by anyone on the lightside but Luke because he is his descendant.
  • Satele Shan in legends was up there with Luke and Yoda at their peaks. (Lightside)
    Obi Wan when fully connected to the force is also massively powerful.

    Darkside there are too many to list….
  • I'd love to see Satele Shan in the game. Given that she was able to wreck Malgus, I think she's conquest character worthy....just wait until I'm good enough at conquest that I can get her.

    Considering that they have Malgus already and she's connected to his story (which I only learned just now from your post, lol), I think we might be able to hope to see her in-game someday. I don't know too much about her but what I do know of her sounds like she'd be great to see in action within the game.

    She's basically Bastilla on steroids without the spoiled princess attitude. And with the wisdom of Yoda minus the arrogance.
