Interesting quote on DE Sidious and Force Storms (from Tom Veitch)
November 23rd 2019, 7:38 pm
The World Devastators innovated and re-introduced the concept of super-weapons in Star Wars. Then came the Galaxy Gun in Dark Empire II and Empire's End. Is it Palpatine’s lack of confidence in the power of the dark side even though he is able to create his powerful Force Storms? Or perhaps is it an unhealthy obsession with demonstrating the military might of his regime?
TOM: The super-weapons are there for visual and cinematic reasons...and to give Cam a chance to show his stuff. Also, they answer the question, "What would the Empire build after the Death Star?” The idea of a "galaxy gun" was something that seemed inevitable to me, considering the reality of hyperspace. I was pleased they picked it up for THE FORCE AWAKENS, although they fumbled the concept in a major way, imho.
Note on "Force Storms": The Emperor can't create Force Storms at will. They are in fact a phenomenon that occurs rarely, when the minds of two great Force users meet and struggle with each other at a distance.
Based on Veitch's claims, it sounds like something he can only do under very specific circumstances and it requires another powerful Force user opposing him to cause it.- AncientPowerSuspect Hero | Level Four

This is nothing new, yeah. But like all author statements, I don't give it any weight. The actual source material portrays a very different picture.

Star Wars Legends Feats happened because of Nexuses, Amps, artifacts, super weapons and special circumstances. This doesn't surprise me.
