Force lightning makes for a neat renewable energy source, actually. Why is this not explored more in SW?

>>211399858 (OP)
There's only like three people who do it and they have more important things to do than sit and power a generator.

>>211399858 (OP)
Because they basically already had unlimited energy you cock sucking stupid fuck.

>>211399891
4 canonically

>the most powerful sith can shoot lightning from their fingertips
>the most powerful jedi can... absorb that lightning or something
why are the good guys always so lame?

>>211399948
dooku wasn't a sith

>>211400019
That Darth Tyranus guy? Pretty sure he was.

>>211400019
>no you don't understand he was actually a light-dark-grey-ascended 3rd option jedi
he was a sith

Why cant jedi shoot lightning? Does it have to be a sith only power?

>>211399858 (OP)
It's literally not renewable, using the dark side fucks up your body. Which is why they had to find out ways to extend life/prolong/essence transfer etc. .

>>211400107
>It's literally not renewable
Wrong. Its canonically unlimited power.

>>211400121
He discovered cloning though.And he makes clones of himself, so technially he is correct. He can use his clones to create infinite power, but the resource is the clones. They are worn down and destroyed by the power.

>>211399858 (OP)
Is energy issues ever mentioned in Star Wars? Considering the size of all their scifi crap, shooting lightning looks like pittance. Literally whole planet sized spaceships that shoot lasers so strong they blow up multiple other planets at once

>>211400121
Is it? I thought he was just aurafarming at that moment

>>211400176
If we were a real fan and had read the books you would know the Naboo conflict was over energy. Also they ran out of space gas in the Last Jedi.

>>211400099
Rey can shoot lightning :^)

>>211399948
Electric judgment btfo force lightning.

>>211399948
They can live on after death

>>211400436
So can the Sith. Big deal. Way more Sith survive as spirits than Jedi.

>>211400192
It did go pretty hard ngl

>>211400099
It's on the sith tech tree.

>>211400442
>So can the Sith
They quite literally, canonically, cannot. The Sith cling to this life because it's all they have, the Jedi let go of all things material and transcend as ghosts because of it.

>>211400442
Source?

>>211400148
>mfw the Sheev in the prequels and the original series was just a clone while Sheev-Prime was chilling on Exegol

>>211400442
>So can the Sith
in which one of the first 6 movies? (vader doesn't count, he converted at the end)

>>211400121
>Its canonically unlimited power.
I bet he needs to fuel up with a sandwich now and again

>>211400525
>He’s just like me

>>211400148
Image a death star powered by legions of palpetine clones doing force lightning

The entire EU.
>>211400504
Palps.

>>211400525

Absolutely disgusting.

Should've shaved his mustache while you were at it anon

Because Legend of Korra literally did this to lightning bending in Avatar and ruined its own world building. Force lighting is something only powerful force users can preform. Having it used for menial labor trivializes all that.

But that was Yoda's fentanyl induced vision. It was all in his mind, Bane wasn't an actual physical ghosts that existed in the galaxy. You've made my argument for me because it's these series of episodes that canonized Sith not being able to live on as ghosts, which is the reason George decided to cut Darth Revan from the episode.

>>211400625
> it's these series of episodes that canonized Sith not being able to live on as ghosts
They're not ghosts, they're essence.

>George decided to cut Darth Revan from the episode.
Canonically Revan goes back to the light

>>211400646
>They're not ghosts, they're essence
Bane was a vision, an illusion in that episode. How much clearer can I get
>Canonically Revan goes back to the light
And yet they planned to have his ghost in that episode until George stated Sith cannot remain as ghosts unlike Jedi

Sith using force lightning is like a reference to the mad scientist trope, Frankenstein type of thing, "what have I done" Oppenheimer meme, a Tesla vs Edison late propaganda about messing too much with the elements of this world.

The Sith talk about technique and development, they are industrial, they build, they hire, they arm themselves, they are actively trying to mold the universe in some shape or form. The Jedi are monks, farmers, samurai, they think industrialization is evil, they are afraid to interfere, they love the status quo and walk around in robes talking to other soft well behaved celibates all day through grand halls. While the Sith are trying to bring people back from the dead and experimenting with lightning, the Jedi are against it calling it Dark Side. Dark as in unkown, yet to be discovered, the Jedi think we should stay all the time in the light side, in the comfort zone. At the same time they are okay with manipulating a guard's mind, because what's the big deal. Hypocrites, the whole lot. Anakin's sin was fighting for his love and breaking the Jedi code.

And? They don't have to become ghosts. They do essence transfer. That's not the same as force ghosts.

>One night as Durron meditated and practiced his skills in his bedchamber, the young Human used the Force to extend his senses throughout the Great Temple, wondering at the vast power he was able to manipulate. As he did so, Durron detected a foreign presence and realized that an apparition had emerged in his chamber. Confronting the cloaked and shadowed figure, Durron listened as the apparition revealed that he could allow Durron to tap into his full potential and abandon Skywalker's restrictive teachings in order to unlock new powers and abilities. Durron found himself fascinated, although nervous, and demanded to know the apparition's name. With mocking laughter, the hooded figure revealed himself to be Exar Kun, a long-deceased Dark Lord of the Sith.
