The ight and dark sides Force powers who have demonstrated their skills in phenomenal feats. The most famous of these are, of course, the Skywalkers - Anakin Skywalker and his son Luke, stars of George Lucas' saga. But, as the franchise has expanded across the timeline, many other powerful Jedi have been introduced in different mediums in Star Wars. It is, of course, very difficult to compare different Jedi in of power level.

The Jedi venerate wisdom above raw power. Some Jedi hail from species with longer life spans than humans, meaning they have had more time to cultivate their gifts. And then, of course, there is the will of the Force and simple luck - the factors that mean a less competent duelist can successfully beat a more powerful Jedi in a duel. Still, going from what has been seen to date, here's a ranking of 40 major Jedi from weakest to most powerful - using their feats and accomplishments as indicators.

40 Gungi

A Wookiee Jedi who survived Order 66

A Youngling during the Clone Wars, the Wookiee Jedi Gungi was one of the more unlikely Order 66 survivors. It's difficult to say how he made it out alive; was it because of his Jedi skills, his Wookiee strength, or the sacrifice of his master? Whatever the truth may be, Gungi showed his power in the Force when he worked with Clone Force 99 on Kashyyyk. His final fate is unknown, but the fact he was on Kashyyyk - a world ravaged by the Empire - bodes ill.

39 Barriss Offee

Model Padawan turned Jedi traitor

Originally Luminara Unduli's Padawan, Barriss Offee became a Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars. She was sensitive enough to the Force to sense the growing darkness but lacked the wisdom to realize she needed to resist it as a Jedi. Instead, Barriss turned against the Jedi Council. Her power and skill were demonstrated in several shadowy combat scenes with Ahsoka Tano, but she never really demonstrated her true potential in the Force. She briefly became an Inquisitor, but left, ultimately evolving into a Jedi Healer.

38 Jocasta Nu

Chief Librarian of the Jedi Archives

Played by the late Alethea McGrath in the prequel trilogy, Jocasta Nu was a Jedi archivist noted for her wisdom rather than her power. She somehow survived Anakin Skywalker's sacking of the Jedi Temple and established a repository of Jedi knowledge that would ultimately help Luke Skywalker rebuild the Order. Palpatine feared Jocasta Nu's knowledge and with good reason; although she was captured by the Empire when returning to Coruscant, she was able to manipulate Darth Vader into killing her, so the Sith would not profit from her knowledge of the light and dark sides of the Force.

37 Eno Cordova

A Jedi scholar, not a warrior

First introduced (by hologram) in Jedi: Fallen Order, Eno Cordova is an unusual Jedi. A scholar first and foremost, he appears to have sensed the rise of the dark side, and he worked hard to secure the future of the Jedi by hiding records of Force-sensitive Younglings. Eno Cordova survived Order 66, but did not live through the Dark Times. He consistently demonstrated far more insight than raw power.

36 Yord Fandar

A by-the-books Jedi Knight

A straight-laced and by-the-books Jedi who served during the High Republic Era, Yord nonetheless demonstrated a great deal of creativity and adaptability over the course of The Acolyte. He was the only Jedi who really figured out how to use the Stranger's own cortosis armor against him, briefly deactivating his enemy's lightsaber, but sadly even this wasn't enough for Yord to triumph. He never had the change to really demonstrate his full potential.

35 Jecki Lon

A tragically ill-fated Padawan

The Padawan of Master Sol, the Theelin Jecki Lon proved something of a prodigy during the High Republic Era. Jecki was notable for her intense focus on training, continuing to practice combat forms even when she was accompanying her master on missions. Her skill was demonstrated when she went up against the Sith Lord known as the Stranger, because she was able to use Jar'kai - wielding two blades - and unmasked him. Sadly, she was unprepared for the Stranger's own treacherous methods, and she died before ever fulfilling her true potential.

34 Vernestra Rwoh

The youngest Jedi Knight of the High Republic era

A Jedi of the High Republic Era, Vernestra Rwoh was something of a Force prodigy, a Mirialan who was knighted when she was just 15 years old. Remarkably sensitive to the guidance of the Force, Vernestra - sometimes nicknamed "Vern" - modified her lightsaber into a lightwhip in response to its guidance, and this proved useful during battles with Nihil pirates and carnivorous plant creatures known as the Drengir. Rebecca Henderson plays the older Vernestra Rwoh in The Acolyte, but there's as yet no indication of her power levels by that point in the timeline.

33 Aayla Secura

A highly skilled Jedi Master

Hailing from the old Star Wars Expanded Universe, Jedi Master Aayla Secura was incorporated into George Lucas' prequel trilogy, where she was played by Lucasfilm employee Amy Allen. The Twi'lek Jedi was noted for her phenomenal martial arts skills, but unfortunately, most of her Clone Wars feats have been erased from Disney canon, making it very difficult to place Aayla Secura on this ranking of Jedi according to canon. Hopefully, Star Wars will revisit Aayla Secura going forward.

32 Stellan Gios

A Jedi Master of the High Republic

Stellan Gios was as notable for his political skill as he was for his power in the Force. Stellan protected Chancellor Lina Soh when the Nihil attacked the Republic Fair on Valo, and he became seen as a hero for his actions there. He tragically sacrifices himself to save others during the Nihil attack on Starlight Beacon, a space station they brought down on an inhabited planet. Stellan's true power has seldom been displayed, but he kept remarkable company, working alongside prodigies Avar Kriss and Elzar Mann. This, more than anything else, suggests he should be considered a powerhouse.

31 Depa Billaba

Kanan Jarrus' Jedi Master

The Padawan of Mace Windu, Depa Billaba is one of the few Jedi to have mastered the lightsaber form known as Vaapad. Unlike other lightsaber forms, Vaapad encourages a Jedi to embrace their emotions, using them to fuel an aggressive attack; Mace and Depa are the only known practitioners of Vaapad not to have fallen to the dark side. Depa is best known to modern viewers as the Jedi Master of Kanan Jarrus, briefly appearing in the opening scenes of Star Wars: The Bad Batch season 1, episode 1, when she gave her life on her Padawan's behalf.
