The force, in the pre-disney days allowed palpatine to manipulate the entire galaxy into a war that completely blinded the jedi and led to their wholesale slaughter. It sure doesn't sound like decades of the empire slaughtering or indoctrinating force-sensitives wherever they can be found counts as a "Beneficial outcome" Unless you meant "beneficial to their outlook" in which case, that's what I meant. You get out of the force what you put in.
It seems like people are missing the point of my question. My question was intended to be along the line of 'can the Force give someone incorrect results if them acting on those incorrect results would be better for the galaxy as a whole', hence my example of the Force deceiving a slaver into being captured
...And there is also the for the greater good angle.
The closest is Zayne Carrick whom the Force humiliates and discomforts for the optimal outcome.
Would be funny if a group of criminals tries to "upgrade" by training its own people to feel and use the force, only to crumble over time because same members don't feel happy anymore participating in the crimes.
They released like twenty types of ships in Legends.
I really miss his comic series, even if its one of the ones with the best conclusions.

Nah. It was sometime after the Old Sith Wars when the Mecrosa Order stopped recruting Force-Sensitives and just used poisons. Otherwise they'd be dead for stealing from Sith Cultists.
I'm not sure the lightfoils/trashsabres are capable of loping off limbs, but quality may vary.
'Weaker' is vague enough that we can both be right.
I broadly agree here, though I think they'd probably have some philosophical answer to how the ability is different. It may just be that the Jedi call the ability mechu-deru when it's performed using the Dark Side, and have a different name for doing basically the same thing but not calling on the Dark Side to do it. I also tend to think that the Jedi use non-Dark Side Force Alchemy on their lightsabre crystals and holocrons, but don't use the word 'alchemy' to describe it.
Looking on the article, it seems like it may be a case of the Jedi having not delved much into it, while the Sith delved deep and using the technopathy as a foundation of Sith techniques, which later leads to the whole discepline being painted by the same brush, even as certain specialists in the Jedi order still tap into the same general discepline. And Lightsabers and Holocrons considered seperate from the sheer age of those methods.
From how it was made, a master Sith made it as a protection for his son, so it probably is.
