HA! HA! HA! HAAHAHAHA! None of this is true anymore; Expanded Universe is NOTHING. Go watch Rogue One and cry yourself to sleep, SW:EU-fans.

I can't take this shit seriously. So silly. Also, RedLetterMedia's video about this is amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVzc20Bm8Xo

Some say it even gave the ability to defeat enemies who had the high ground.

pretty sure this is a recent repost.

So the shoulder armour could be the reason why all the saber fights were so "lame" in 4-6?
NoNamesPlz
I sense a disturbance in the Force, as though a incomplete dump of Vader facts has been reposted to ride the Rogue One hype.
zombiekiller0
Prob all non canon

if the sith amulets were indestructible, then how did they make them into gauntlets?
behrditz
I really hate those sith gauntlets. "The gauntlets were so powerful that after he died, just possessing one would give the powers of vader!"
Kofix
He got the suit installed at Emperor Palpatine's surgery clinic. I am not fucking with you, thats
Kofix
What it is called
mattbklyn
So the helmet has gizmos that can amplify a force connection? How so?
anarkitty
Technology that can interact with the force has been part of Star Wars for a very long time. Holocrons are the most well-known example.
WeylandYutaniCorp
It takes impulses and EM readings of his brain and channels them to bullshitichlorians. I know cuz I'm with the rebel alliance and a traitor
immodicus
Which button calls his parents to come pick him up?
alphas
This was what I was looking for
unicornfield
Also the emperor made it weak to force lightning, so he could stop him from rising against him
DoomSkuller
Huh. In LEGO Star Wars, Vader is resistent to Sidious' Force lightning. You can pick other characters up & kill em with it, but not him
ExcuseMe2
"In LEGO Star Wars..." Stop.
DoomSkuller
Well, most of the LEGO SW universe was based solely on the movies & what could be gathered from them, with a bunch of humour thrown in.
DoomSkuller
Ultimately they're more canonical than the Expanded Universe
StreaksOnTheChinaNeverMatteredBefore
But what about the 'uge Bacta tank in RO?
inevitableban
I think it was just insight into what he does to make himself miserable, even when healing. His castle is on Mustafar and he looks out 1/2
StreaksOnTheChinaNeverMatteredBefore
Yeah. I would guess he relied on the force just to keep himself going from day to day. In Jedi, I see that he actually welcomes death.
inevitableban
as he's healing. Probably likely that the bacta is adhering the synthskin or eating the necrotic flesh. 2/2
RetroPhantom
But can it protect him from his CRIPPLING DEPRESSION?!

No

How do you misspell Vader when it's right there on the damn image?

Because @op is a dirty reposter.

Darth Vader is Dark Vador in French, thus I think @op here is French and missed the memo

Is any of this canon? It's really interesting.
ElJefeLives
Well in canon he's able to remove his suit (as evidenced in Rogue One). In Legends, Vader was able to modify his suit but never fully 1/2
ElJefeLives
able to remove the suit. Strangely, these "facts" about Vader were made when Legends was canon, so it was wrong at first.
wafflestompa
Thanks!
andergriff
it used to be.

The senate has already been informed that your downvotes were an industrial accident.

fun facts about Storm Trooper armour.. it can't protect against shit.. I mean teddy bears with rocks and sticks.. come on man!!
zombiekiller0
It's about numbers not protection the empire dis not give a shit
LordxGodxKing
youtube.com/watch?v=zBbFhHmsAGo educate yourself
teh0khardic
Heavy rocks and concussions are no joke, though. Helmets or not
Khaydri
Not true, didn't you see Rogue One? It can protect only against other stormtroopers, and apparently can absorb like 20 blaster bolts.
Saxong
Bulletproof vests are vulnerable to stabs and dog bites still. Can't protect against everything.
TormentedPenguin
but they do protect against rocks and sticks..
Gregah
Bulletproof vests are also not protecting against drowning, which I honestly think is pretty fucked up. You spend all that money, for what?
TurboJer
You misspelled "Storm Troopor"
johnvictor
Having heavy rocks thrown down at you even in armour will hurt. There are weak points to jab sharps into joins like armpit or groin.
CaptainMcFloaty
They allowed troopers to be merely knocked unconscious by energy blasts that could pierce holes through solid metal.
aegis27
Unless attacked by stones. You'd think someone would notice this and start using ballistic weapons again.
WordofDJ
Lol oh so all the stormtroopers taken out by blaster fire were just rendered unconscious? They all wake up after the battle and have a laugh
BronzeLeaguePro
Yeah, pretty much. Unless they lose, in which case they won't laugh quite so much.
throwawayaccountthatmeans
Nah some probably drown some probably freeze to death depends on the planet you're on you could get eaten. But id take KO over dead
knokknokknok
and also hinders the aim while shooting
bluefacepaint
Except, Luke was an idiot who didn't turn on his helmet's combat display and that's why he said "I can't see a thing in this helmet" and (1)
bluefacepaint
(3) not to kill them.
bluefacepaint
(2) with the exception of Endor, every time the plot-armoured central cast went up against stormtroopers the stormtroopers were under orders
NotaMormonbutlookslikeone
In canon now most blaster bolts don't kill them but instead knock them out or wound them, it spreads the energy from the blast out
MediaMuerte
Lasers don't have momentum
kaboodlez
While a laser gun wouldn't have any recoil, the material vaporized by the laser would probably exert some force on the target
MediaMuerte
It's a burn
Spiceman
Wouldn't just be a burn with plasma. It would actually penetrate and cause exit wounds. Lightning, is plasma for some context.
NotaMormonbutlookslikeone
They actually use plasma, that's why it travels slower than the speed of light
Cere4l
ah but these are blaster bolts. they just look like lasers :noideawhatimtalkingabout:
whoopsywoo
Ewoks were a mistake
burgerandy
And then they repeated that mistake not once, but twice!

THOSE HACK FRAUDS?

fact that all the discomfort, all the lack of sleep, all the suffering that existing in this black shell did fed into Vader's anger and 2/?

hatred of himself thus increasing his connection to the dark side of the force 10 fold. This 'pain is power' process was used again in 3/?
inevitableban
Force Awakens where we see Kylo Ren punch himself in his bowcaster wound several times for agony and more strength. 4/4
freyjaboo
I loved that part in FA. I'm always fascinated by boys like Ben.
CaptainMcFloaty
Similarly it also was a fail safe so that Vader could never overthrow Palaptine single handedly, as all apprentices did to their masters
HighSlayerRalton
That worked out well for Palpatine.
inevitableban
Yeah, the Legends EU had Palpatine stocked with fail-safes so he could rule indefinitely. He only needed an enforcer, not an apprentice.
pyrrhlis
He chose not to convert to it because it would require talking all of his life support away briefly, and he did not trust the Emperor (1/2)
