The lightsaber is likely a plasma weapon of some type. Minimum temperature would presumably be in the range of 1000 degrees Celsius, but almost certainly higher. Almost every material in Star Wars is destroyed near-instantly by a lightsaber blade, and, as thus, either has a very low melting point, or, lightsabers can reach obscene temperatures.PTSOXMONKEY99 said:
Not sure if intangibility creates immunity to mindhax like Vader's, and Vader isn't lacking in the range department either. As long as he can SEE Akuma, he can Force Choke him.ScarletFirefly said:
No, as seen in Empire Strikes Back, Vader was able to Force Choke someone while in another Star Destroyer.ScarletFirefly said:
To be fair, this is because nonfodder opponents in Star Wars have the Force, which they use as a shield againt Force attacks, including Force Choke. Even if Akuma could resist Force Choke (which I doubt), he'd still have to dodge a hail of thrown objects, from pebbles to trees, as well as whatever isn't bolted down around them.ScarletFirefly said:
That's a mistake. Vader and even Anakin have used Force Choke a plethora of times in the Disney canon. It's his signature ability in fact. Now as for the question of whether he can use it on Akuma, it depends on his mental state. Normally, he's never used it on anyone above fodder and I'm not sure if his casual Force Choke would have the AP to affect Akuma. But if he is angered enough, he could probably choke out Akuma. Ventress once when emotionally unstable managed to choke two High Councillor level Jedi whom she's normally no match for.ScarletFirefly said:
It can potentially cut through neutronium impregnated durasteel, which has High 7-A durability even in the Disney canon. I think the lightsaber can cut through Akuma indeed but not with a glancing slash. It has to be a dedicated power blow. Though an upcoming episode of Rebels could change this.ScarletFirefly said:
