your legs will make a fine addition to obi-wan's collection
For a monk who supposedly fights only for peace, he actually has the highest dismemberment count of any prominent character in Star Wars.
 
Far more sources concur that blasters and laser cannons are plasma bolts, especially in-universe sources.

Also, there's normal laser cannons with continuous blasts, like the Death Star's superlaser and the LAAT/i.

I watched Friends and Enemies, and there's a huge cut if you watch the full scene. This is not some kind of speed feat. If anything, I'd say it's an anti-feat because ships don't travel fast enough for them to linger on the shots.

I guess you missed this edit. So I'll post it again.

Since they have canonical atmospheric speeds, I think we can go by that for blaster speeds.

^ This.

The very same ICS source that is used to support blaster bolts being light-speed describes them as plasma bolts contained in a magnetic field bubble.

"Plasma bolt contained in a magnetic field bubble" doesn't sound like your typical particle beam or laser beam.

Yeah, considering blaster bolts can instantly outpace Subsonic+ swoop bikes and shuttles, it's safe to say they're at least Supersonic. And considering sniper blasters ar meant to hit targets out to 5+ km, it's safe to say bolts from heavy blaster rifles and sniper blasters are comfortably Hypersonic or Hypersonic+ even.
 
Yeah, I guess. There is a calc Obi-Wan blocking the laser tho
Is it the Chaostheory123 calc? He himself said it's mid-end MHS, if my memory serves me correctly.

Hand blasters should scale to street tier people, they're currently listed as Subsonic for blaster dodging.
 
I've shilled this a million times before, but if you have a speed feat from weaponry in Star Wars, tell me and I'll calculate it here.

I've got Mach 1.5 feats for blasters.
 
Well mhs is like even over 800 times slower than sol even assuming near mhs+ so doubt is mhs unless the distance was that big
 
The prequels also had this same problem in some of the battle scenes, but it wasn't as egregious or prominent.
 
Uh Since i forget can someone tell me when ahsoka shown Precognition?
Her profile doesn't show scan for tjat
 
Also an friend asked
From where did jedi and sith augmented their with Force Precognition comes from

technically aren't all jedi and sith, excluding nihilus and a few others, glass cannons?

cause if they don't augment the force to protect themselves then they are street level durability.


Though if they augment their durability through the force. can they simultaneously fight and keep their durability at the same level as their AP?

Meant to put their speed💩
That what canon profiles say "augmented by precognition"

Yeah because their augmentation also helps them keep up with and track multiple blaster bolts moving at Massively Hypersonic. I mean look at Ahsoka during Order 66, even with Massively Hypersonic combat speed and reactions deflecting that many from a short distance against highly trained clones would be almost impossible without precog.

Precognition also helped Kanan keep up with Maul and Vader (although Vader wasn't going all out)

can a jedi simulanteously have their AP the same as their durability while fighting


also can they be caught off guard?
 
are jedi glass cannons if they are caught off-guard?
Not an SW expert, but in theory it should be the case.

Jedi and Sith for the most can be killed like any normal humans, they need to use the Force to had superhuman durability.

also i asked if they simulatenously can maintain augmented AP and Durability at the same time
Yes they should, unless they focus all their strength to one point, as they would be as vulnerable to sneak attacks.
 
That is, without a doubt, the worst page I’ve ever seen.

is there a reason why anakin was so easily manipulated by palpatine? Was it because of love?



also wasn't palpatine more powerful than both anakin and mace.

so even if anakin decided to step in and help mace kill palpatine while it looked like palpatine was weak.

he could of easily killed them both.
 
Pretty much every canon guide I've looked at says Mace genuinely overwhelmed Palpatine, and that he's in his/Yoda's overall league of power.

We see in The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones that Palpatine's plans aren't utterly immovable, so I'd just venture to say that Anakin's timely arrival was yet another happy coincidence that massively worked in his favour.

If you're talking about Legends, I'm not sure. The RoTS novelization doesn't seem to portray it as Palpatine holding back.

so if anakin had decided to join windu then palpatine would have been toast?


although is the reason palpatine being able to manipulate anakin is because anakin was too emotional?
