Worst Weapons Designs in Star Wars 

😂😂

I just want to get there that looks so cool

Perhaps this is the Polynesian Spa I've heard so much about.

Is that a moon in the background? That’s no moon.

@@brittonnevans2208 lol did he slip the death star in there?

Hey, it's the weekend. A judgement free time.

lol

Yup

pre or post yavin?

Steep discount

Yeah Jocosta just had to push it to the limit because the target was Vader.

​@@rabbitknight87 if you think about it blasters are the best weapons to use against Vader, (if you are a force user), his prosthetics severly limit his mobility and ability to dodge, so a rifle like that, that cannot be parried with a saber, is the best option.

Similar to a machine gun where you have to change the barrel after firing for to long

@@rabbitknight87 She's so extra.

@@arx3516 Blasters are definitely a more lethal weapon than Star Wars portrays them to be. Imagine firing at a jedi or sith on full-auto? They'd die within seconds!

true. and it would make more sense if the button was more of a grip safety feature (like what the Uzi has) and ow ya, still have a trigger.

Wonder how drunk the designers were, both in real life and in universe, when they gave it a side button. Couldn’t they give it a Derringer like trigger so it could still work despite the gloved hands?

@@crazypissman6721I’m sorry but is your profile the “I’m making piss!” Guy?

@@lelandholmquist2467 I can't reply right now. I AM MAKING PISS!

A stormtrooper got chucked into the forge and he instantly melted into nothing. Even his armor and blaster didn’t make it. And the craziest part is that the entire human being getting shoved into the forge created no impurities in the metal

You *don’t* want to heat your metal to the melting point if you’re forging it. I did that once on accident and had to almost start over. Total waste of time and metal.

Presumably a beskar alloy that is more heat-resistant than standard beskar

​​@@randombloke82 if you only have a bunch of tiny ingots you would want to melt them into a larger ingot then forge that. Unless Bescar is like bronze and must be cast then work hardened

​@@randombloke82I think they might be casting the armor plates. In that case you'd want it liquid.

Yeah, just seeing those long clones is enough give someone nightmares

That’s good point

Plus a bit of shock is helpful if you land the hit.

Realistically if you make contact with your opponent they're disabled at which point the supposed 5 seconds to kill is basically nothing

Sh!t you’re right

I agree, it’s my favorite as well

It’s really a shame Omega didn’t used her crossbow that Echo gave her

No Jedha had a mining accident, Alderaan had a cosmic fart

He’s on the planet where he keeps all the Bens

It's just a holo recreation. The flickering was a glitch in the holo matrix. 😢 Regrettably, Alderran is only a memory now. Unless you have a time ship.

Very interesting thanks for the info

We got the same itch

I think Ezra ditched it the blaster-saber combo for a normal saber because he couldn’t use both at the same time. It was either the lightsaber or the blaster. However, with a regular lightsaber he can use a regular blaster in his other hand freely. There’s also the fact that he has to put ammo in his saberblaster, usually Tibanna gas, to fire it. Ezra usually uses stun mode, which uses batteries/power cells instead (which are needed for the lightsaber anyway), but it does have a set-to-kill mode that would require Tibanna gas for a proper blaster bolt. Trying to fit that in an ergonomic and practical design is difficult, so the blastersaber’s handguard was likely where he had room for Tibanna gas. But, as you might guess, the handguard design itself is incredibly impractical unless you’re planning to be facing opponents who aim to disarm you by slicing off your hands. It’s what you see on thrusting swords, such as rapiers and estocs and fencing sport swords, aka you need to be heavily focused on thrusting the blade and being thrusted at for the guard to be significantly useful. I could see a second blastersaber actual work with Ezra made a third saber if he made it longer to hold Tibanna gas inside the actual hilt and got rid of the fencing-esque guard and instead used a crossguard more akin to stereotypical medieval swords that the blaster barrel could fit in. He could even put a side emitter above it to protect the blaster and his hands effectively from lightsaber attacks. In other words, a lightsaber bastard sword with a crossguard that houses the blaster barrel, side emitters (like Kylo Ren or Kestis) to protect the barrel-crossguard, and a longer hilt to allow better two-handed grip as well as to hold the Tibanna gas.

@guts60 excellent points. He still has his standard saber but I could see him tinkering around. If he ever learned of the lightsaber rifle and combined his knowledge with that design I would wager he could make a version that doesn't need to use a lightsaber as ammunition.

I honestly don't know why he didn't rebuild it in the first place. When his master had borrowed it during the one episode, it was shown to be insanely versatile and useful in ways that Ezra hadn't yet come close to pulling off. Personally, when I saw what it could do, I thought that it might eventually become the basis for a new generation of jedi weapons.

STRONG AGREE, HIS DOWNGRADE VIA LIGHTSABER AND DESIGN SUCKED HARD

If I was to hazard a guess (and this is primarily an educated guess.), I would say that the weapon originally was designed with a trigger. At some point, the normal trigger was removed for some reason, but the guard remained. Again, this is just a guess, but residual features happen in real life. (Can’t remember any off the top of my head unfortunately.)

Wonder how drunk the designers were, both in real life and in universe, when they gave it a side button. Couldn’t they give it a Derringer like trigger so it could still work despite the gloved hands?

The Dc15 is said to have 500 shots. If you don’t hit anything by then end of the gas cartage. Just go home.

​@@Odie125JTMprovided your somehow STILL alive by then after missing somehow THAT much

I don't care what any lore says for this specifically, the energy and plasma for the bow needs to come from somewhere, just like any other blaster or energy weapon in Star Wars. Given the size of the projectile relative to the weapon, its ammo is almost definitely much more limited than other weapons.

less that they don't know how to operate them and more they are extremely stubborn about not using ranged options.

Lighsabers use similar magnetic fields to push saber blades away from the hilt, which is why there aren't more lost hands in saber duels.

He wouldn’t want to damage his trophies and you know it XD

cloak and dagger is far superior

He was late on purpose because he knew it would piss him off, and a pissed off opponent is prone to make mistakes.

Exactly what I was thinking. It's pretty obvious by that point alone whoever came up with that weapon never actually shot a bow in their life

Tbh 1977 wasn't really hippy time anymore. Way more of a studio 54 situation

They do

They do, just nobody ever uses it. It's a folding stock. The E-11 doesn't have a stock, though. It actually does, just didn't realize.

​@@ALLMINDmercenarysupportsystem actually they do, they're just rarely used.

@ChaseBlackmoon Oh. Guess it was more hidden than the DC-15 carbine's. Or it could be that I just haven't seen it as recently.

@@ALLMINDmercenarysupportsystem yes, it looks like a front grip but it does unfold to be a stock.
