Why Darth Vader Never Got His Own CORTOSIS Helmet! - Acolyte Episode 6 

"if I die, I die."

No darth sid wanted the chosen one killable simple

​@@Tay_NewNerdHe wanted Vader to be weak to his force lightning but he never wanted to limit Vaders power

Vader respected star wars cannon..

My lord 🧎‍♂️

But my lord, you dueled the younglings.

Exactly, he doesn't need a gimmick to win. The fact this guy got hit on the helmet or was forced to block with the gauntlet says alot about his fighting skill. If he didn't have it he would have died. Needed, that hidden short blade too, to kill the padawan that was pressing him.

Or his hands were just made of durasteel so essentially blaster proof

Cortosis is too soft for that type of battle alone, you would need to weave it into another material to make it structurally rigid enough while maintaining the flexibility that a rapier is needed to have. Going with in universe materials, to blend Cortosis I would probably mix Songsteel, like Beskar it's saber resistant but a great deal lighter in weight than Beskar, and takes annealing and other metallurgic coloring processes better than Beskar appears to (we've only seen it painted not treated chemically)

And difficult to mine

@@darylsdesigns6679 not to mention that’s more rare to find than beskar

true and requires more cortosis ore to repair any damages ...lot more...also it has more benefits like its very light and not heavy as beskar is very heavy and slow down the wearer ...vadar cluckiness walking makes him breath harder but for corosis...its make wearer do lot more in his moves that make him very stronger and faster with it ...teneborus use entire armor made of cortosis...it makes him make moves you can't imagine how quick he use life saber and use force efficient with red lighting due to effects of cortosis...basically...he the scarry villian not to cross path with...least to qimir ...he force to follow him around but warn him not jump into pool on planet ...it heals his wounds and give his youth almost immortal ...

Bescar armor with cortosis strategically placed in it would be the way to go.

On the bright side, while it shorts out lightsabers, it’s easily welded with an electric toothbrush. 🙄

But hey, *Star Wars Comics* is what it is. _Steadily losing credibility with every single posted video._

It did? wait was cortosis previously mentioned somewhere in the franchise, but mentioned that lightsabers could actually penetrate it? or another reason?

@@Perkunas_1 how about the sith being extinct for a millennium? How about ret conning Ki Adi Mundi? How about ruining what made Anakin skywalker special? Everything about this show is lore breaking. An no cortisis couldn’t block mind reading it only shorted blades. This show is a joke it’s not Star Wars it is in name only.

lol

finally someone with sense.

He has mandalorian armor?

God I hope nope

@brooklynsmokes151 yea ik right they should but how would that work

Shhh don't tell the haters that they think Disney made it up

I mean that did happen. Someone pulled it on Vader. His saber was deactivated. He grabbed them and snapped their neck took the blade proceeded to kill every Jedi that was there with it.

Canon not cannon. I know its nitpicky. However wrong word. Canon is officially recognized history. Its meaningless to everyone. Cannon on the other hand is a weapon that can and has killed people.

Canon not cannon, and you have no idea what is actually canon.

if canon dose not matter then there is no reason to write the story in the Star Wars universe

@@viktorgabriel2554 i agree with you. Disney has bastardized Star war so bad canon and non canon has literally lost its meaning. Thats was what i trying to convey before 😂

A new element being added to a story isn’t a ret-con. It’s only a ret-con if it conflicts with previously stated cannon. Cortosis existing does not conflict with the training for why palps made vaders suit the way he did, and why he didn’t ever upgrade it. Those facts were established later in cannon and did not conflict with the movies either. By your logic anything added into a franchise or universe later on would technically be a retcon, and this is not the case. Yes ofc cortosis was not in the OT, but it being added on is not a ret-con, it does not conflict with how we know his suit was made, or why he never upgraded it, it’s just an addition to the lore.

@@joshuacollins9316 I feel like you just jumped through some Olympic sized hoops in your head to make sense of adding new story beats to an existing story. If that's not a retcon you and I will have to agree to disagree. The point of my post was to say that story is more important than canon. But that's just somethinig George and I agree on that the fandom simply can't wrap their heads around.

@@ninetiesrelic2975 so by that logic and “facts” that you are stating, only the original movie “A New Hope” is part of the original source material? Or wait is it the full OT right? Oh but wait the holiday special came out around that time too so better through that in there. And oh yeah there were also some books written so all of that must be the original source as well. Or wait am I getting it wrong and it’s just a New Hope? So Yoda is a retcon, oh and Boba Fett, dang Jaba the Hutt too. WOW that’s a lot. Retcon Definition-Google : (in a film, television series, or other fictional work) a piece of new information that imposes a different interpretation on previously described events, typically used to facilitate a dramatic plot shift or account for an inconsistency. Things that drastically change the story or force you to Interpret it in a diff way are retcons, “like palps arriving after episode 6”, but small things like adding cortosis as a new type of metal that existed when Vader made his suit is not. It is simply and added story element that can be used to speculate on how it integrates with the cannon we already have. It does not impose (or force) a new Interpretation of events. Because it does not change how his suit was made, and why it was made the way it was.

@@ninetiesrelic2975 also yes when things are added by the owners of a franchise/IP to the cannon they are automatically a part of the world. Disney owns the SW IP, so they get to dictate what cannon is. And whether or not people may see it that way, that’s how it works. In the same way that DC gets to dictate what’s cannon to the current Justice League comics, or James Cameron does with Avatar. Whoever owns/creates the franchise gets to decided cannon, not the fans.

Could you explain what was woke in the episode?
