    The Jedi Council's narrow mindedness did heavily contribute to the fall of their order. Have they never heard of a stun setting? Many blasters have stun settings whereas lightsabers don't tend to boast such a feature. Jedi should have been actively encouraged to become proficiant in as many weapons, tools, and skillsets as possible.

That's why I THOROUGHLY enjoyed Ezra Bridger's first lightsaber. It had a stun blaster built into the hilt. If he had incorporated a secondary power source for said stun blaster, he could have reliably used it in tandom with his lightsaber. A blade lock stun would be quite the equalizer after all.😁

    The attitude of using any accessible weapon in combat is permissible is just common sense. The attitude that excludes the use of a weapon because it is primarily utilized as an offensive weapon is asinine. Use whatever is at hand when it comes down to the protection and preservation of the innocent and if possible, even the guilty. That’s how I understood the philosophy of the Gray Paladins when I first heard of them.

  • @Hezigrimm
    @Hezigrimm 4 роки тому +10

    I still feel like the darkside can be used with the will of the force, so long as you adhere to it. Considering that darkside powers have you tap into your emotions, so long as you knew when to stop or kept a tight leash on your emotions you could direct them towards the will of the force. Something similar to what Momin had spoken to Darth Vader, however instead of letting the darkside of the force control you; you control your own emotions. The force is just the force, there is no evil nor good. Those who try to bend it to their will and own means is the imbalance. Those who use it to enact its own will will always be within the balance. How they direct themselves within the force dictates if they are Grey or Jedi. Meaning if they choose to tap into the darkside or keep wholly within the light.

    There were several force abilities that allowed a force user such as a Jedi to defend themselves against enemy attack without using a lightsaber, so the whole "lightsabers are defensive because you can use them to deflect blaster bolts" is kind of ridiculous. If you learn the right skill you can catch blaster bolts with your hands!
    Also, using the force to slow opponents or freeze them in place has traditionally been seen as a neutral or even light side power in most media from what I remember, instead a dark side force user would use the force to inflame an opponents negative emotions, such as fear, or physically debilitate them to gain the upper hand.

    I actually have the book where they originally appeared in, and read that whole series and the spin-off... The Last Jedi. Yeah, before the EU became Legends canon, there was a book called The Last Jedi. It was awful, and really justified making it Legends because of how contradictory the canon had become, with several examples appearing in that book as they tried to make sense of them.

      @@michaelandreipalon359 , well, as for the contradicting canons, Mandalore in various books and Mandalore in the TV show are far different not only in culture but geography (book Mandalore had some green, while the TV show's was blasted flat). Dathomir was also hit hard, with the Nightsisters being either human-like or more like Asajj Ventress, so they had both in the book. I didn't find the book very enjoyable either, as it too seemed all over the place. It's been a while though, so my memory's fuzzy.

      @@michaelandreipalon359 Another issue with the Last Jedi book that followed on from Coruscant Nights is that the author seemed to keep flip-flopping on how much time had passed since the Clone Wars. Most of Coruscant Nights was meant to take place within 2 years of Order 66, but there were a few odd instances of them rounding up the time since the events of Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter (set a few months before The Phantom Menace) to a full "two decades ago" so 17BBY might think it's 12BBY for a scene. And then in The Last Jedi they started doing that with the events of the Medstar Duology (set in the middle of the Clone Wars) so they'd seem to be randomly jumping between 15BBY and 2BBY even though the story took place over a matter of weeks. It's a shame that such errors weren't caught, because the Noir-esque feel of the Coruscant Nights trilogy was quite fun

    Now if the Jedi had also trained in projectile weapons like slugs throwers and blasters.. hell even as simple as slings and whatever is an ACTUAL version of bows an arrows an maybe like martial arts and explosives skills for example they coulda better understood what they was up against as well as their troops, on both sides of dealing with Clones and CIS Droids.. then they could been BETTER tacticicians an WHEN the Clones turned on them they might've had a much harder time wiping them out. While ALSO working on their various Force powers. If Jedi had acted an learned more like Paladins an been more flexible. Way more mightve been harder to kill or turn dark and been much higher threats to the Sith and large amounts of skilled anti Jedi shooters like Clones troops and Mandalorians. Jist about EVERY sorta weapon can be used both ways. It's just a matter of setting a situation up that way along with how you use it.

    I know Obi-Wan said that the light-sabur was a civilized weapon, but guns are actually more civilized because there much more officiant. Think of it this way: if jedi decided to use blasters instead, then they would be more deadly than they would be with a light sabur.
