The force users of the SWTOR era are extremely underrated I wish we would get a clone wars style show set during that period there are so many awesome characters that deserve to be delved more into.
Yeah, I think everyone's minds go straight to Darth Malgus when they think of SWTOR Sith (or Revan and Bane if they think of the overall 4000 year period of the Old Republic period in its various forms) but Darth Marr is one of my favourite Sith Lords. And I'm surprised that Darth Jadus hasn't returned beyond a brief mention during War For Iokath. Also it's interesting to see various Sith "falling" to the Light Side, including a Dark Counc member.
The Galatic War 25 Years of Conflict between Sith and Republic like Storylines of Sith turning to The Jedi and forming not the jedi or Sith believes like the gray jedi pr another storyline of Sith Empire invasions of worlds Similtar to the Clone Wars Series
I like how because of their force bond instead of not caring about one of their brothers dying they straight up went ultimate suicide pack and planned to destroy the entire galaxy including themselves.
"Once, I thought myself a monster. I played in rivers of blood and laughed as innocents quaked. Yet when I touched the Dread Masters, I saw that my darkness was but a shadow of true depravity." - Hargrev
hargev was a dark jedi at best a true sith fears nothing as they use fear as they strength along with other dark emotions fearing death made the sith weak thats why the select few sith that didn't fear death were so sucessful
@@neilhannan7525 Now that's a insult, have you not read the holy text of IDW ??no Transformers Fan can cross into the Wellspring after his death if he hasn't read the TF IDW Bible. You will straight go to the Antispark, there is still time brother.
The Dark Side is an unnatural and mysterious, and while many Dark Lords have a great understanding of the Dark Side, the Dread Masters were so steep into the Darkness that they may be confused for the Dark Side itself. The Sith Emperor wanted the Dread Masters to be close to him, but they are no doubt rivals for him, and this perhaps allowed the Emperor to realized that they could pose an actual threat to him. The Galaxy shudders when remembering the dark history, but the Dread Masters were creatures of pure nightmares and to horrifying to be told in story.
Nah, the Emperor had them under his will. They followed him cause he was OP, and the only reason they didn't join the Sith Empire later on is because he left the known Galaxy. He's the ONLY person these guys feared and respected.
@ryandunham1047 Nah, at that point, the Jedi Temple would've been SCREWED 😅 imagine Anakin leading them and the 501st Legion into the Temple during Operation Knightfall? RIP to any Masters. Anakin wouldn't have lost on Mustafar if he had even one of them follow him to ensure the Seperatists and their droid armies were soundly defeated.
I remember encountering the Dread Masters for the first time. They balanced out the categories of 'terrifying', 'mysterious', and 'badass' so perfectly.
The dark side of the force may be dangerous for you and your loved ones, warning prolonged exposure to the dark side may cause side effects such as deformity, changes in behavior and eye color, and possibly mental instability. The list goes on.
Dark Siders who actually have loved ones. I'll be damned... EDIT: The Baanite Sith made a ritual out of severing emotional ties, Darth Malgus had a wife but chose to kill her as he felt their bond was a weakness. The Dread masters meanwhile were so close one of them dying drove the rest suicidal.
To bad Disney just threw out the SWTOR remake like it was a piece of trash… These sith lords would he the perfect combo for a old republic come back but you already know Disney is going to SJW it up.
see's like a common problem of the Sith Empire, that once the stabilising and unifying presence of the emperor vitiate disappeared . All manner of powerful sith rose up to challenge and overthrow the dark council to take its place; dread masters, Malgus and many others over the years and weakening the empire from within before war with the republic broke out again.
The emperor’s power stoked fear in the hearts of the rest of the Sith. Without Vitiate to deter any would be upstarts or keep the powerful in check, the empire stood no chance. As Kreia once said: “To be united by hatred is a fragile alliance at best.”
@@emperorrevan6992 Indeed and well said and same can be said of the galactic empire under Sidious as once that fear and tyrant falls apart, the centre cannot hold or endure.
@@wedgeantillies66 The sad reality is I can only think of two who technically avoided that pitfall, Marr and Lana, but they are extreme outliers among their peers. While Darth Vectivus didn’t rule at all.
Haha that was the toughest dungeon in SWTOR for me back then. We managed to finish it on Hardmode. But I remember we were wiping like crazy on Bestia. But what a cool dungeon. Ah all those beautiful memories of SWTOR 🤩😍😍
Likely just some fan-art imagining a merge crossover between SW & TOH, with Belos looking like one of the Dread Masters [which makes some sense, given the similar look of his robes & mask with theirs, along with their natural ability to instill fear into their subjects (Dread Masters through their raw power, Belos with his prophet-like charisma.])
To the Emperor, he is playing the "keep your friends close, your enemies are closer" game with the Dread Masters. Heck, I am even surprised why the heck did they remain loyal to Darth Vitiate so much despite the obvious fact that they can easily defeat him and they don't have any sort of relationship with the Emperor, let alone having stockholm syndrome that kept them under slave mentalities like Ymir Fritz, like at all. Does it have something to do with something like seeing the Dark Council attempted to overthrow the Emperor three times and failed?
They served the Emperor because he had power and a vision. They were his councilors, and after his disappearance to Zakuul, they saw no point in staying bound to his empire.
8:08 How did you get this photo? That's my character from SWTOR, Katualagka. My friend made that especially for me. I don't remember posting it online. I only know of one place my friend posted it, but you left out their signature. If you could let me know where you saw it, that'd be great. I'm just curious. I love the Dread Masters! They're my fave group of Sith. So much so, I have a SWTOR guild focused on a new group of Dread Masters.
super interesting, I didn’t know about these. love your content. to the editor: there’s a lot of white noise around the, “attention! sergeant on deck!” sound, don’t you want to clean that up? no disrespect, just an observation 🙃
I wish they would do a Star Wars movie involving some of these old Sith lords. Playing through SWTOR and defeating the Dread Masters was a blast... most of which you can do by yourself, but the big battles require a group (which is a ton of fun too).
Yeah it seems to be thing among the sith that most of them including palpatine are weary of fringe darksiders who care more about chaos and destruction for it's own sake rather than trying to actually rule the galaxy. At the end of the day if you're somebody who wants to establish and sustain his own sith empire and maybe acheive immortality down the line you still need some degree of order and administrative government with a chain of command and darkside death cults that just want to bring about the apocalypse could interfere with that. If your a typical sith, the darkside is meant to be your slave. You aren't supposed to actually worship and rever aspects of it.
6:26 & 11:05 - I was having fun with this video. Why, please, WHY did you have to reference this _festering abomination_ in a video that has nothing to do with *Disneytard-Canon?!* It's like making a delicious feast, and putting a giant, rancid pile of shit right in the middle of it! There are WAY better depictions of Force Bond in Star Wars franchise!
Not bad. BUT everything usually has its equal and opposite counter balances. Ought to do their Lightside counterparts that would or did beat them if they ever fought next
I'd say it's time for Disney to start telling the saga from the dark side. U know all Jedi who turned sith always had their reasoning to do so. It's wasn't always about the power. So I personally cannot wait for the Acolyte even tho I think Andor will show some of how the rebels were In a dark place willing to do anything to win the war. There were extremest factions of the rebels to
Right! Since there are so many questions about this, i figure i would just post a comment instead of replying to each and every question. Narrator today is Pat! Pat joined the Geetsly family during the Spider Droid monks video. You know, the Brain jar monks who used spider droids to move about in Jabba's palace? Pat usually comes in while Geetsly is otherwise indisposed. So say if geetsly is sick, Pat steps up and helps out. To what extent, i cannot say. All I can glean is that Pat is the narrator for the day. That said, pat does a wonderful job and I have noticed his audio is crisper than previous videos~ Great Job, Pat~ Thanks again for your help and an exellent coverage of the topic. ^~^ I do hope this helps you folks understand what goes on when the narrator changes~ Your's truely Bard Core
I never played the games, but I am actually curious about those strike teams. in the Darth Bane books, the most elite non-Jedi forces the Republic had were cannon fodder to Kopecz, I would have assumed that 6 Sith with the hype I always hear for this group would have torn pretty much any 'strike team' a new one, Kopecz was a funny child playing with party tricks next to any of them.
Being so powerful, yet so unsuccessful, were they really that inept or were they plagued by internal quarreling? How can all of that power and longevity of life be so useless?
There was one particularly powerful Sith Emperor before Palpatine who, for a long time, went by no other name. You can search him up by the names Vitiate, Valkorion or Tenebrae (I think; it might be Tenebrous). Basically, he was really powerful, immortal, lived for a very long time, and barely failed to accomplish his goals, then he abandoned the Sith for some reason and that's where my understanding of him ends.
@@samueldimmock694 THANKS BRO, I have heard of Lord Vitiate if I'm correct Valkorian was a force reincarnated Vitiate...but I think both of us could use a refresher course on the events of his life, apparently he was far removed from the events surrounding the Galactic Empire in a sort of self exile in the outer rim regions but again...a refresher is needed.
