    It shows how selfless Dooku really is. He didn’t care about himself gaining all the power like Vader and Sidious did. He just wanted a less corrupt system in the galaxy since he though, rightly so, that the Jedi Order was corrupt.
    Also the most classy Sith of them all. He could always have a proper conversation and he had deep respect for all his opponents.

      LJLvids Dooku was good but he was not one the strongest in anyway he was skilled and had a well rounded fencing skill. But before he turned to the dark he held a Green light saber. He was very ambitious and wanted to be a face of a new era and instead like you said he became a pawn. He was never trained to be a sith. Think that's why he had an odd looking saber. His skill in the force however I have to change my opinion on and say you have a point he was good in the force but I think his ambitions kept him from being the best.

      The Jedi are incredibly hypocritical and have commited many atrocities and war crimes in the name of balance and pretending to be good, they let slavery run free in the very republic and many other horrid practices, that's why count Doku left the Jedi and hated them, same with general Grievous who hated the Jedi for their crimes.

      @willy_lime7465 6 лет назад +55

      If you pay attention to all of the movies, it's only when a Sith (or Jedi) allow the pain and suffering of the dark side reach a certain level. Usually it's by physical pain, like losing a limb, and giving in to that pain and anger and letting it consume you with hate. Palpatine had it happen when he used force lightning and it rebounded into him, Anakin had it happen when he lost his legs on Mustafar vs Obi-Won. Every Sith Lord you see in the comics have extensive cybernetics, and everyone that does has those sith eyes.
      It has to be the anger and/or hate from said pain that allows the cross over as a Jedi won't get sith eyes from pain alone.

    Another thing is, that Dooku was always emotionally stable, for the most part calm and collected - not prone to outbursts of rage or fear like Anakin, though he was passionate in his desire to clean up the corruption in both the Republic and the Jedi Order, he was never overcome by passion, but throughout his appearances were in control of his own faculties and dedicated to his purpose.
    He acted not out of hate, fear, or desire - but rather a rational understanding of the flaws of the existing political order, and a logical approach to fixing it; by overthrowing the Republic in favor of an (in his mind) incorruptible Empire.

    Out of all the Sith Lords, Dooku was the least evil. He was duped by Palpatine because he genuinely wanted to get rid of corruption and complacency in Galactic Politics and save the universe from itself. He wasn't selfish like Anakin who sacrificed the Jedi to save Padme, only to lose both. He wasn't a killing machine like Darth Maul, who never had a life outside of being Palpatine's instrument. He wasn't a machiavellian sociopath like Palpatine either. Dooku was almost decent, for a villain...

    The reason I though Dooku didn't have Sith eye's was because he was also using the 'Mask' to keep his fall to the Dark Side secret until the last moment. But also because of Dooku's advanced age (for a Human) he literally couldn't take the physical effects of going too far into the Dark Side. Since it would more than likely crippled his already elderly body. Its not a coincidence that technically Dooku is the oldest Sith we have ever seen on screen.
