Oh, I'll bet. And if Obi Kenobi's mentally scarred by his experiences, imagine how nightmarish and nigh-unbearable the trauma must be for Darth Vader--who in all likelihood has PTSD that's even worse. That i think is true. I wonder, aside from Darth Vader, who the most traumatized and tragic character in Star Wars is. General Grievous probably rivals the Emperor'a apprentice in these two arenas.

What about Mon Mothma of Chandrila, she has seen a lot. True. To my knowledge, however, she hasn't been in the line of fire as far as bloody battles or mass desecration go. Grievous and Vader, on the other hand, have such experiences attributable to their name in droves.

Legends Luke restarted the Jedi Order and became its Grand Master like his Canon counterpart, but also built it up and himself became OP as f--k. There's also the various conflicts that he participated in during his lifetime (i.e. the Yuuzhan Vong War), which certainly gives him combat experience comparable to, if not even greater than his father's.

Did Luke Legends version life longer than his cannon version.

Did Luke Legends version life longer than his cannon version. According to his Wookiepedia page, yes. While Canon Luke is listed as dying in 23 ABY (when Episode VIII takes place), his Legends counterpart passed on somewhere between 45 and 137 ABY--even becoming a Force ghost who'd go on to guide his descendants long after.

That bring me on a What If Luke Force ghost from Legends traveled back to young Luke at the beginning of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (cannon version) to teach him everything he knows.

To restart a thread that's been dormant for over a week now, here's a (albeit 6 month-old) video by that Jensaarai1 guy you've probably seen me mention more than once. As he announces in the introduction, it focuses on material belonging to Legends rather than the Disney-created Canon, which he harbors visible and repeated dislike for.

An Overview of Common Lightsaber CrystalsNice one Zyobot Thank you, it's good that you seem to have found the video helpful. Another series of videos that I think is worth sharing concerns a revamped version of Jensaarai1's initial descriptions of the various lightsaber forms employed by the Jedi and Sith alike--starting with the one below, and being fleshed out in this YouTube playlist.

Interesting video. There are actually plenty of others that also explore putting ships' stats in context, such as this one below from MetaBallStudios:
