Yes his soul would need to be destroyed by a powerful psyker, but it is safe to assume it only took the Emperor so much effort to destroy Horus' because he was a primarch. So it doesn't make sense that it would take someone of the Emperors power to kill Abaddon as he can never be as powerful as a Primarch, regardless of what pacts he has made with choas. Given the right circumstances any of the current legendary psykers would be capable.

@107 - I would say the same thing to you, Abaddon is not unkillable and no way it would require a psyker as powerful as the Emperor, as Abaddon is not as powerful as Horus, although admittedly alot more successful.

Definitely a good point about Abaddon not requiring as much psyker power to be truly killed. He still is quite powerful though. I would think his pacts with chaos would still render him nigh invulnerable to almost any psyker alive in the 41st millenium. So, perhaps Mephiston? Or maybe for a non-psyker killing him albiet probably not permanently, Bjorn the Fell-Handed, who also has a similiar amount of combat experience?

And with 10,000 years of combat experience, probably millions of daemonic pacts, a sword that can unmake reality-even daemons are afraid of it- is he really less powerful than Horus? He has taken the title of Warmaster of Chaos and has decried Horus as a weak fool, so clearly Abaddon thinks he is stronger than Horus.
