Suzsi Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Absolutely, he wanted to bring fear and hatred to every single citizen and member of the Empire. That sounds like normal imperial behaviour to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you just think that. In the end nobody's safe from resurrection in the SWTOR universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no outcome where Jadus dies. He is alive and well I'm all for Jadus to come back. Even the Emperor mentioned how Jadus was only 2nd to himself in regard to power, so he could make for a good baddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watcher Two is hardly qualified to make such a claim. Other members of the Dark Council likely have a very different opinion on the matter. She also probably didn't even know about Scourge, who most likely found Jadus to be childish (at best).

Firstly, Watcher Two is not in a position to accurately judge the "power" of a Sith in relation to other Sith, and second, the Dark Council is also described as second in power to only the Emperor, so Watcher Two could very will be meaning Jadus's standing and power level of a Dark Councilor. Valkorion saying that Jadus was the best Sith the Empire produced is not the same as saying that Jadus is the most powerful Sith the Empire has produced. Strong, most likely. One does not get on the Dark Council unless they are strong or there is a need for a completely nonsensical inheritance of the position as in the case of Zhorrid. I have always seen Jadus as a generic Bond villain, which completely fits with the generic spy tropes that the Agent story is rife with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opinion < what's stated clearly in game and the dark council is only answerable to the emperor - while the 12 make up the most powerful individuals. Which means they aren't all equal. And I think an espionage force would be accurate in understanding and knowing who was more powerful. They work for the sith after all, and they like to betray one another. You kind of need to know if you can do that. Here is a continued description of Jadus: Jadus rose to prominence among the Sith during the years of the Great Galactic War and the subsequent cold war, securing a position for himself on the sith's dark council and developing into its most powerful member. In fact his power was so great people would be in pain being around him due to the power of the dark side radiating from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact his power was so great people would be in pain being around him due to the power of the dark side radiating from him. It is rude to quote without crediting your source. Jadus was a male Human Dark Lord of the Sith. Presumably born on the Sith capital of Dromund Kaas,[1] located in the Outer Rim,[3] Jadus rose to prominence among the Sith during the years of the Great Galactic War and the subsequent Cold War, securing a position for himself on the Sith's Dark Council and developing into its most powerful member. Wookiepeedia, whist an excellent resource that is utilized by many, including myself, is not an official source. It is complied and written by fans. Also from Wookiepeedia: A Sith Warrior, Darth Marr was a remarkably powerful practitioner of the dark side; his strength was such that he ascended to a seat on the Dark Council while still in his early twenties.[1][10] He was able to maintain his position over the next forty years while the tenure of some Councilors lasted mere weeks. Even Emperor Vitiate saw the potential threat that Darth Marr as well as Darth Mortis had on his throne. Hmm, Vitiate would not be worried that Darth Marr was a threat to their power if Marr was not a power that was second only to Vitiate. What Watcher Two specifically said is "Damn it, we can't fight him on our own — his power is second to the Emperor's." And that is true for everyone on the Dark Council (except for Zhorrid). People read a lot into that "second to the Emperor" line. Edited December 9, 2020 by ceryxp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Best" is not a synonym for "power" in the English language. Watcher Two is stating an uneducated opinion Ergo, the game does not state his power level. Period.

Vaynr Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Lana mentioned Darth Jadus on Iokath. Although in the agent's vision by Valkorion, Jadus was dead but with other classes, you can't know. I would love to see him return, he is my most favorite sith in this game and despite being "second in power to the Emperor" he was quickly neglected. He must return.

RTCBrad Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Just no more big bad guys that are against both factions. I can see him as emperor or something, but lets keep the story aimed as the Sith Vs Republic Agreed, lets keep it this way for a while. Jadus isn’t a believable enemy, he would be far too weak compared to PCs given we can beat Vitiate (which I think is a mistake). And I absolutely don’t support him showing up randomly with an army of ships and troops again out of nowhere, been there done that and again its not believable. Bring him back as someone who dethrones Acina/Vowrawn absolutely that will also fix the sith leader which I think is an improvement. Meanwhile the republic story is focussed around electing a new chancellor and rebuilding the Jedi order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goreshaga Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Meanwhile the republic story is focussed around electing a new chancellor and rebuilding the Jedi order. Would be nice if Galena Rans could stay as Chancellor. She seems like a decent person, who would probably be good for the Republic. Jadus taking over Acina / Vowrawn would be nice though, at least there would only be 1 ruler for that faction, instead of 2 who can both potentially be dead when the other is Empress/Emperor.

boosterexo Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I just thought of something. For agents that become the Hand of Jadus, you are sent on a mission to recover datapads from dead Imperial Guardsmen on Hoth. In recovering these datapads, Jadus learns of the Emperor's plan to wipe out all life in the galaxy. And so Jadus leaves the galaxy. Given Jadus's disappearance and prolonged absence no matter what you choose to do on the Dominator, I think its safe to assume that he learns the Emperor's plans and leaves the galaxy no matter what. I think Jadus hasn't returned yet because the Emperor has been alive this whole time and the galaxy hasn't been wiped out yet. Someone as powerful as Jadus could no doubt sense if either of these things changed. With this in mind it would be foolish of Jadus to return when a galactic threat like the Emperor is still at large and could potentially annihilate the galaxy at any moment. But now the Emperor is gone forever, which means there's nothing keeping Jadus away. This is just a theory that I thought of today, but it does make a lot of sense. Hopefully with the Emperor gone we will see Jadus return sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanceDefender Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Yes, he left galaxy exactly because of Emperor's plans to wipe out whole life. But questions are like where he went? For what (except hiding and waiting)? Did he was doing something by his agents e.g to help us to kill Emperor? Was he creating his own Empire during all this time? And when he will finally return and for what purpose? To take Imperial throne or challenge Empire or maybe as ally? I'm as well waiting for Jadus return. I hope and it'd be cool if that would happen or maybe only a hint or cutscene with Jadus on 10th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
