The 10 Forbidden Force Abilities Explained! 

My favorite Force abilities are Force lighting Force crush Mind domination Force fear and forces scream

All of them so I can dominate my foes and subjugate the galaxy

Force drain

Electric judgement

force crush probably and force scream

Anakin did still have his actual voice. We heard Vader's actual voice ROTJ.😂

It could have been given that all the medical droids were force crushed Which would technically mean vader didn't actually destroy everything there on purpose

Nope he did not, his lungs and vocal chords been damaged by fire... His suit was kinda breathing for him...

@@nightscarens well it'd still be a rupture in the force though right You may not need to fully hear the scream for the effects to take place not to mention with anakin/vaders power it likely would have brought down the building and maybe had thrown palpatine across the room if it were at full power

He actually did use a force scream, he caused a doctor to go permanently deaf with it!

Truly the most dread power af all.

Also make the whole universe uncanon, isn't that overpowered?

Surely the Dark Side is strong with this power!

😂😂😂😂

im sure it was Drain Force, since he was draining the Force itself. Force drain is kinda siphoning to heal yourself but feel free to correct me

What’s wild is that just putting on his mask would give you the ability to use the force even if you were completely force nonsensitive

@@NaDIOpoopenfarten I think both of them are called Force Drain regardless they siphon the health or the force from the opponent. Though i get what you're saying gramatically that would make sense :D

nihilus was a special case as he was a living wound in the force

That's right, besides, Palpatine could drain 20 billion people at the same time without killing them. But force drain is very ineffective in a duel and Nihilus wouldn't be able to use it on this same scale if he's fighting powerful force users like Revan or Anakin.

that would be for life drain not force drain

Like you said, those are AoE versions

I also heard in the novelization of Return of The Jedi, Luke threw his lightsaber down in part because he was NEVER told about force lightning by Ben or Yoda. How could they neglect teaching him something SO important? I agree it's one of the coolest abilities!

An EMP doesn't just drain the power out of something's batteries, it causes the target's circuitry to overload and the physical components, i.e. Capacitors to melt. If anything, Force Lightning would just make it worse.

@@koncan5 unless you could control the level of force lightning. Palpatines was purple which was stronger than Dookus blue but Darth Tenebrous had red force lightning that was the strongest. Maybe using minimal of it could work !

I think its cannon that force lightning is different from actual electricity and you'd need a special kind of converter or engine of sorts to turn force lightning into actual power for a ship or Droid But if it were capable of just jumpstarting a ship real quick or giving a bit of extra power to a Droid I'm sure we'd see force lightning used like lightning bending in the legend of korra It is really dangerous to use but God damn does it do a good job at keeping the lights on

​@@eldenvedetta635 It doesn't matter how much power you apply to a circuit if the components are fried. Putting a different/ bigger power supply won't fix a fried video card. Putting a bigger battery in a car won't fix a dead alternator

sounds like something a padawan would do lol

Honestly I would love a list of force abilites like this that are pranks or adjacent

Yeah,ripping Someones Heart out. Totally the Jedi Way..!

@@Zeus_Almighty I never said it was "the Jedi Way'. I was simply commenting on how the Jedi (or those who write them) are so fervent in their separation, that they attempt to call a technique by different names based solely on what it's used for, refusing to acknowledge that the underlying ability remains the same. Just because the Jedi don't (profess to) use telekinesis for direct attack, doesn't mean that other Force Users are not using Telekinesis when they do. It's merely a different application.

@@Zeus_Almighty And yes, I agree that a Jedi would likely be horrified by such applications of the Force. Which is why they have taken measures to distance themselves from those actions, going so far to come up with different labels for those actions.

@@forrestdudley8424 You where being a smartass. We know it's all the same stuff. Using the force to manipulate things in ways. Kind of like how if I put pressure on a cutting instrument to cut flesh to heal something then im performing "Surgery" but if I put pressure on a cutting instrument to harm or kill you im performing a "Murder". Or if I put pressure on a cutting instrument to carve up my food im "Eating". We give these things their own labels so we can effectively communicate. Hopefully you understand it now.

Don't forget her hand twitched just like Banes as she walked away, suggesting that the ritual to take over her body worked and Bane may still be wandering around somewhere.

@@Domicle While a fun theory the author has confirmed that Bane died and only a tiny part of him managed to transfer to Zannah.

@@DullUsernameBane has managed to transfer his consciousness from person to person down through the centuries just like Vitiate. And he will one day return to show the galaxy what the Rule of Two really means. Bow to the Darkness or be Destroyed!! (Honestly, we're gonna destroy everything anyway so... stand or whatever, I don't know.)

@@Domicle I shall accept my destruction while casually reclined.

@@DullUsername now that sounds comfortable 😆

Yup, free healing.

he used it like a bomb storing it up 2 an extremely dangerous level before unleasing it at the last possible second doing this is just as likely 2 kill you as the people around u which is probably why its wasn't used by other darksiders

Starkiller used force repulse.

That seemed to be what he was alluding to with the either meditation, with using it to keep someone alive while awaiting medical care, or to be able to survive a particularly prolonged survival situation. Luke used it in an EU novel when (if I remember correctly) he had to travel a prolonged amount of time in his X-wing (either because the trip had to be sub-light or because it was just that far (I can't remember which. My understanding was that Dark Side nature came from it being forcibly applied to slow the processes of another - thus killing them in an excruciating fashion.

Mechu deru was a dark side power not because it made its user a really good mechanic (although it did do that), but because it allowed for the creation of horrific cybernetic abominations. However, it wasn't strictly banned; some Jedi did employ it.

I belive what you are reffering is Mechu Deru Vitiate - an dark side evolution of an abillity neutral in its nature. I think even jedi in technical devision of jedi temple used it. That orogonal mechu deru was just used to beter understand and communicate/modify technology. At least thats what i remmember.

Yeah, unfortunately that was just made up for the sake of gameplay mechanics

luke skywalker in legends said the same, comparing them to tools or instruments that you can use and what really matters is the intent or path you walk.

@@DarthRevan260 thats such a shit argument

In Dark Forces 2 you could pick a mix of both, but it wouldn't let you get the most powerful abilities of each as it was tied to your alignment. I liked it better than just giving you all powers of both disciplines in the later JK games, which was pretty confusing when you just get all these random sith powers in JK2.

@@junioraltamontent.7582 you could only select one power point per mission aside from the basics like jump push and such.

All of these sound amazing, so I think the best balancing factors would be; Make them exceptionally hard to master Make them really draining to the the user Or make them very situational somehow

Force illusion is a force ability that exists in Legends.

@@isaiaholaru5013 oh yeah, that's why I just have a basic concept for them, unless the story is a power fantasy that has a ludicrously overpowered main character(s), there would have to be something to balance things out. The disintegrate and plant abilities both have conceptual backlash that I have notes for. Force Disintegrate - The wielders of that power have to actually focus on dismantling a target at a molecular/atomic level. On a small scale, say a single person, or part of a ship hull, or a giant boulder; the backlash from messing up the ability would cause it to essentially backfire and the disintegrating effect would fling back at the caster. They'd have just an instant to do something to stop it from happening, if not, then their arm or at least hand may get torn apart. Then on the large scale, say trying to disintegrate an entire star destroyer, a building, a mountain, an asteroid, a moon, or even a planet; first off, that level of power would have to take multiple casters working together or an extremely powerful individual (Yoda, Windu, Palpatine, Anakin, Revan, Meetra Surik, Nihlus, Vitiate, the Outlander, etc). But when pulling that much destructive power together, if the caster(s) screw it up, it could potentially cause a chain reaction that could spawn a small/temporary gravity well that destroys them and everything around them. Natural Abundance - To use that power in any form, the force user is using the light side of the force mostly, and they are actually tapping into the 'Life Essence' of various Flora. If they want to make things grow or move, that costs more of that essence, so they have to get it from somewhere. What it boils down to is, to even begin working with that power, the user has to understand the concept of the 'Life Drain' force ability, and then they have to reverse it, so they give their life energy to whatever plant it happens to be. Which sounds weak because basically the user is gonna make themselves weak in exchange for growing a garden in seconds instead of weeks/months, but it depends on the user as some have more energy to give away. HOWEVER, mastery of that ability allows the caster to draw on pure energy from the force itself, converting it into a usable state for the plants. It's one of those obscure powers that is so weak to start with that no one would ever think to use it in combat, but give it to say... Yoda? Give him 5 years to master it, and he can potentially alter the entire surface of a planet in a matter of seconds. Imagine him landing on tatooine and then he just slaps his hands on the ground, closes his eyes, and the entirety of every inch of desert you can see in front of you suddenly starts to darken, then a second or two later, weeds, grass, vines, roots, and entire trees start to spring up. That's an extreme example, but they are my concepts and I love them. Hopefully that helps to make them sound a bit better, I welcome any ideas you or anyone else might come up with. Seriously even if you think it's dumb or embarrassing, I live and breathe that kinda stuff so feel free to throw anything you got at me and I'll see if I can figure out a way to work it in or make something entirely new with it. While typing this I had an idea for a power that would let you channel hyperspace energy into regular space itself and start altering entire star-systems. I think that should be a power that requires 20,000+ midichlorians to even begin to use. So Palpatine, Yoda, and Anakin would be the only current people. Vitiate and maybe Revan could too. Legends Luke could for sure.

if I recall starkiller build up and stored an extremely dangerous amount of energy from his force lightning before discharging it around him at this last possible second which if done even a tiny bit wrong would destroy him

@randymarshislorde since you welcome an ideas here is mine: Shadows masquerade - manipulate opponent's senses to make caster disappear. Target can't see, hear or smell caster, also regarding the presence in the Force it appears as caster is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Further more with prolonged effect caster may force the target to see or hear whatever caster wants. To initiate the ability caster should do some distraction, like spinning his lightsaber very fast, or producing sparks with said lightsaber, or throwing something big in opponent, just split second of concentration switch is enough. Drawback is target should be in caster's direct line of sight all the time, so caster can't hide or run away. Ability affinity is dark side. Counter is light side combat meditation of highest grade. Crushing darkness - area of effect ability, increase gravity around caster twofold. Can be casted consecutively, with each time increasing effect twofold, so it like 2-4-8-16-etc progression. If target moves under effect there is risk of international injuries, also it affects target blood circulation and breathing, like at high g overload. Drawback is caster can't use other Force abilities while this one is active, and can't move fast. Ability affinity is dark side. Counter is target's endurance and ability to buff himself with Force. Would be cool if you find use of these, as I have none.

I agree, it deserves more attention.

That move was an absolute menace, along with the Strong style 1 hit kill leaping attack. So many frags on the Bespin Streets server from spamming those

true

Using insanity on all the bosses was super fun. If I remember correctly it even affected Kreia's floating light sabres.

Force poison?

if u put bad intent/emotions into a force ability it becomes dark side is how I see it
