Why Darth Plagueis the Wise is WAY More Powerful Than You Realize 

I love how he stoped saying “acolytes in the force” for his intros lmao

Tenebrous and Plagueis were one the most interesting sith in the lore. Their view points, abilities, and their roles in society.

The stories you talked about makes Darth Plagueis sound like those old Chuck Norris jokes.

Anytime you're compared to Vitiate, you know you're dealing with real power.

You know, guys, we all know this, that if Darth Plagueis the Wise was not sick or was not drunk, he could have defeated and killed Palpatine alone, all by himself. He trained him, and he used a dirty tactic to kill him.

No doubt he is so powerful he was one of the few people Palpatine actually feared. By attacking him in his sleep by surprise was proof enough how terrifyingly strong this guy really was. Still a force to be reckon with

yes. we've needed more Darth Plaguies since 2005. i never leaned forward in my seat more than when Plagueis was mentioned in Revenge Of The Sith. another Sith?!!! i was beyond intrigued. the novel is excellent and yes tells the entirety of his story, but, it is the in between that has soo much potential.

To be honest, I never gave much credit to Plagueis or Tenebrus. I always had that oversimplification in my head that he was "just" the master of Sidious. The recent videos about him really changed my views on him.

This is an absolute gamechanging video. I will say, the showrunner for the Acolyte said what's in store for Qimir and Osha in terms of Plagueis seeing everything in the background. They don't stand a snowball's chance.

I need to read the Darth Plagueis book.

If we want to get into his potential, Plagueis was on the verge of Godhood: Plagueis was litterally said to be capable of any power during- Chapter 24 pg 283 Of the Darth Plagueis novel. And following nearby context they directly list, Flight, becoming invisible, and Teleportation acrost space and time just beforehand (when Plagueis was a student of Vanamis before realizing Vanamis was wrong and he was capable of anything) indicating he is capable of these things. Which alongside further context of things like- Chapter 5 pg 61-62 And Chapter 13 Pg 164 Directly indicates he became capable of "any power" even with knowledge of the ancient sith "Force supernova" that could destroy entire stars, and Nihilus consuming entire planets. 😂 And this is all backed up by him legit reaching out to impact all beings in existence at once using his power, and scaring away the force itself with them describing it "-as if it was in flight from him." during Darth Plagueis Novel Chapter 24 pg 283-284 ^ Which is comparable in scope to stuff Abeloth did (as in primarily Plagueis and Abeloth are the only ones who were said to have sent the force running from my knowledge LOL). And this is the same Novel that indicates the celestials merged with the force btw as seen in Chapter 15 pg 184. So Plagueis being capable of this without the Force Dyad, BY HIMSELF is insane In scope and almost “force celestial”-like. And in the Darth Plagueis Novel Prologue they'd describe his death as shaking the stars themselves across the galaxy further backing up these levels of power. In fact… Across the Novel in Chapter 29 title and events. Aswell as the Dark-Side beckoning Sidious to slay his master in the Darth Plagueis Novel Prologue (where his death is shown), just to “annoint” Sidious afterwards as if Sidious did something good. Suggests the Force itself, who is in a sense God for this verse, had to step in itself to finish Plagueis off. Which in this context included the Dark-Side stepping in to convince Palpatine to murder Plagueis. _________________ Conclusion: It seems Plagueis was on the verge of Godhood via bruteforce. So the Force itself orchestrated his murder. Bro got DM banned by the Force. 😂 And Plagueis is the only instance of this occurring IIRC. Plagueis: *Exists and terrifies the force* The Force: “Fuck that guy in particular” Soon after: *The Force makes Anakin to counter Palpatine, and then steps in to orchestrate Plagueis's murder*

More Plagueis lore please

Force Speed is one ability I wish we could have seen more in Star Wars Live Action productions.

One of the best Stat Wars novels by far

All it takes is for one moment and all that power is gone

This isn't terribly shocking to me. Palpatine needed a passed out drunk master to kill him afterall.

Remember Palpatine killed Plagueis in his sleep. He didn't had enough courage to face him normally.

We need more of Him. I believe he could be Chosen of The Sith, not the Emperor

Man, all of Plagueis' feats would make him a good challenge for King Piccolo if he was in Dragon Ball.

It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord Of The Sith

Deepest thanks for this video after the last episode totally in the mood for lore deep dive👍❤️🔥

Somethings people need to get straight: 1) Sidious didn't plan on killing Plagueis that night. He didn't get him drunk on purpose. They were actually celebrating. Sidious in fact, was leaving the apartment, grabbing his cloak when a shiver ran down his spine as the Dark Side spoke to him. Only then, without planning did he resolve to kill him. 2) This mirrors Plagueis' own assassination of his master Tenebrous. He had not planned to kill him. But the gas explosion in the cavern offered him a chance and he took it. 3) At the time of TPM when Sidious killed Plagueis he was certainly not more powerful than his master. At the time Plagueis reckoned Dooku was as powerful as Sidious, and a better duelist. It is only after Sidious kills Plagueis that he grows in power considerably. However, by ROTS Sidious was more powerful than Plagueis had been, though not as knowledgeable. 4) Vader crippled as he was, was not at Plagueis' level, though was probably a better duelist.

Thank the heavens hes still a munn 😭🙏

God Damn. Now we need to see a movie or show with Plagueis now.

When talking about Darth Plagus, I see him being a character closer to that of Vitiate than Sidious. Plagus and Vitiate after a point were poor Sith, in terms of their ideology, but regardless were among the pinnacle of Dark Side users when it came to power. And they are both prime examples of how you don't need to be or think like a Sith to achieve true greatness in the Dark Side!

The Acolyte should have been from the sith perspective about Plageuis training and search the power to create life

I love your content! Thank you so much for the effort you put into these videos. I would really appreciate it if you made a tier list of the most powerful beings in the force, such as Revan, yoda, Bane, etc. Much like the tier list of the best duelists in Star Wars. Thank you!!!

They turned my precious Darth Plaguseis the wise into golem 😞🤦

I love these lore videos. More on Plagueis and Revan please 🙏

Awesome video!

Let me say what he said again, again! " A WHOLE CONTINENT IN AN ENTIRE EVENING!" and he was barely fatigued afterwards :0 some of us couldn't even imagine running down the street anymore, let alone a whole a$$ continent tho! Insane but "Impressive...Most Impressive..." Nonetheless ❤

Awesome video l, and very much in awe of darth plageius: a number of sith achieved essence transfer but only two found the parth of immorality. And unlike Emporer viatiate, plageius found the path to reverse againg and coporeal immorality without eternal suffering and madnesss. Truly one of a kind in power and control. As an udea for a future debate video, i would love to see prime vader vs prime plageius explored in a who the greater sith, duelist abd power in the force.

Kinda figured that was the case with Darth Plagueis, considering how Darth Sideous didnt even have the balls to challenge him face to face. But I never knew about some of the feats you just listed, damn he was an OP Beast.

I really like these kind of videos so please make more! I also love all of your content!

wait till they hear about Darth Tenebrous

Your the best man❤

The way he tipped the force out of balance causing the universe to create a chosen one is very similar to lord Voldemort causing there universe to have a chosen one in harry

Fantastic video!

I’d ask for a Darth Plagueis show or movie, but unfortunately, I know Disney would just screw it up. Guess I’ll just re-read the novel…again. Lol

Darth Pegasus is one of my favorite if not the best audio book I have ever listened to. I have listened to over 2000 audio books. It's not just the cold way it was written. But the accuracy and clinical exactness. I'm a fully trained and active lab assistant. The complexity and sureness of his experiments and work done in the lab are second to none.

The only good thing from that episode is that he's still a Munn. I'm glad he's not human

I read that book. It is excellent, one of my favorites. So yes, I knew.

more plageuis vids, hes the best

The power scale of canon vs legends is incomparable. If he had 1/3rd of that power in canon he would be the most powerful canon character ever displayed.

just throw lightning and vader is toast. Of course Plagueis was a beast otherwise Sideous wouldn't have to kill him like a coward.

More Plagueis!!!! I live hearing more lore on this sith litd. Questions for a video: what would plagueis have made if the yuzon-vong?, what would plagueis thoughts be on the kaminoans and especially the altered kaminoan Jedi master?, would plagueus be as powerful a Jedi as he was a sith?, if plagueis was going to essence transfer what species would he ideally want to become?, and finally, what would be plagueis’ thoughts and possible actions if he found himself in the world between worlds? Hope these get turned into great videos!

Amazing story at the end. So, the Acolyte serves its purpose as the introduction to Darth Plagiues, The Wise. "Awesome!"

They should do a Star Wars movie or show based on Darth Plagueis .

great video! I just reread the book and love that you shared how powerful he was! it was 2 out of his 3 hearts though ;)

Can you put “Disney” or “Legends” in the title please?

He wasn’t even around the time of the acolyte supposedly takes place, they pulled a ki adi mundi

I feel like Plagueis' appearance in the Acolyte was added in post due to the backlash they were getting. He is clearly all CGI and it just seems like a tacked on scene. Don't get me wrong, I like that we see him in live action finally, but I don't think he was suppose to make an appearance in the Acolyte story yet (probably figuring Disney might not get more seasons which is cause for hi earlier appearance).

While it is Palpatine's right and duty to kill his master and take the title of Dark Lord. It's such a shame that all of Plagueis' knowledge and power had been lost on his death. Though perhaps he was never truly the same since he was gravely wouned. I hope one day we get another glimpse of his wiseness.

I feel like I need to re-read the novel Darth Plagueis agan. I don't think I really grasped his greatness during the first read.

Vader was nothing more than a sith enforcer. He wasn't particularly bright, had no real strategic ability or foresight, and was easily manipulated. He wasn't a Sith for very long (comparatively), and never showed any ambition to learn any of the subtleties of the force, partially by Sidious' design. He may have had more raw force potential, but never trained to use the majority of it. Plagueis would have ripped him to shreds and Palpatine could have ended him at any time.

Darth plaguis is the master chest player he wins battles by calculating the best outcome with nearly the ability to see the future but in a mathmatical sense more so. He was fast enough to speed past a camera without being seen, ( like a phantom). He was also a master dualest and able to hold a mine cavern up from collapsing till he dropped it on his master and saving himself.

Yes, discuss him in greater detail

Okay, ...im going to read the Plagueis novel again now.

From Luceno novel. we learn that Plagueis came from a banker family. He should be smartly dressed in a suit and tie

Someone told me anakin being created by the force to balance it out after plagueis did what he did was retconned and not the case anymore. This true?

What about a holocron about holocrons, the differences between jedi and sith designs and functions

I think the fact that Sidious got him drunk and waited till he went to sleep before he attacked him said all we needed to know.

It was good to see Darth Plagueis in the Acolyte 🔥 #RenewTheAcolyte

Its a sith legend...

The Legend of Darth Plagueis the lush.

A fascinating Stih figure.

Disney Plus doing a Darth Plaguis Seasonal series like American Horror Story is needed.

Do you think you can give us power scaling videos on malgus, tulak hord, lumiya, and darth Krayt?

manipulated life, created the one of the darkest being galaxy ever saw, orchestrated the rise of the darkest days of republic. such glory, such wisdom.

I hope they dont mess Plagueis up,it might have been Legends but the story he already had was masterful imo

Did anyone not have chills but excitement to actually see him for the first time?. I dont think they need a second season.just leave creeper plagious

Call the Maladians assassins.

Technically I got this part spoiled, but this encouraged me to check out acolyte. Idk wtf fans are complaining about, I thought it was awesome!!!! So thank you for giving me the final push 😊

In my own head cannon, Plagueis transferred his essence into Palpatine, where he would have influence in Palpatine’s eventual Project Necromancy, in an effort to build Plagueis a new and “perfect” body. Vader’s failure on Mustafaar is the catalyst for Plagueis to begin his contingency plan in which the newly formed galactic empire will meet its end, as well as Vader, so that he can start back at square one.

I wish they made a series about Plagueis

plagueis sounds like an extreme character so dark he could have started the sith

Yes, but that’s the one from the book. God knows what they’ll do with him in the show.

If Disney was smart they would make a Plagueis series or movie. I really don’t understand why they haven’t done it yet. It would be an instant hit $$$$

I think plagues is one of the most interesting characters in Star Wars. I honestly can’t wait until they finally make a TV show about him and his apprentice Palpatine.

There's hope that We'll get to see more of Plagueis in Season 2 of the Acolyte.

Man, I am so bummed about how Star Wars is in the hands of Disney and Kennedy. I'm telling you, guys, DO NOT give your $$$ to Deadpool & Wolverine. All Disney will do is use that $$$ to make more crap Star Wars.

Most impressive. Arguably, Plagueis' only weakness was the lack of guile, which ultimately allowed Sidious to overthrow him - and which is still kind of surprising given that Plagueis was a top-tier banker and had almost the entirety of the Rule of Two lineage behind him. What brought him down was probably the characteristic Sith over-confidence - imagine how much of that must have a Sith Lord of Plagueis' caliber had..

i think the way theyre going with everything in acolyte the ritual that created anakin was either taken by plagueis from the witches in which he perfected it or the witches were servants of plagueis and almost perfected what he was attempting giving him the step he needed to perfect it but idk

Hi stupendous from the UK can you do a holocron on darth krayt.

Plageuis may have been the most powerful Sith of the Bane line. Plageuis had the ability to actually increase his midichlorian count.

I would to hear more about Plagueis

It would be great to see these levels of power represented in the movies or shows.

I’m just glad to see my favorite Sith come back.

I'd love to see a power scaling video for Darth Malgus and Vitiate

You should do Darth Bane next

Do a holocron on Darth Wyyrlok Darth Caedus Darth Nyriss power and ability

Kinda funny how the show seems to have introduced plagueis to the screen immediately after this channel talked about how the show should’ve introduced plagueis to the screen. Also I think it’s the first tv or movie incarnation of star wars that shows red lightsaber crystals being produced by dark side corruption

Quick questions for you Wave, I'm not as knowledgeable about Plagueis as you and a lot of other people. But I have to ask, now that he showed up in The Acolyte, should we take what you said in this video as canon anymore? I'm thinking of getting the book about Plagueis to find out about his origins. But now that he's finally in live action, in a show that most people feel isn't canon, should I even bother getting the book at all?

Darth Plaguis trembled when he saw Vader in force vison at his power and anger

Bro is not very wise working with Leslie Headland…

You may have already done this one, but i would like to see what yoda was like in his prime and how he became grand master

Everyone knows, that Ancient Sith Lords would crush even Palpatine.

You must remember that Tenebrous had Plageous bred to be stronger in the Force.

I just ordered the Darth Plageus novel. I’m excited to read it!!! I knew about Plageus before and it makes sense palpatine had to get him drunk and passed out to kill him

Speaking of Plagieus' physical strength. When he killed the Zabrak by him hitting the wall. The Zabrak being spoken of had a broken spine and a caved in skull. I don't know how many people know how strong a Zabraks skull is ,but it's many times stronger than a humans so that alone says how hard he struck the wall.
