Echo probably has the armor closest to clone armor by the looks of it, it's thinner at the chest and more rounded around the shoulder plates where as the rest of the batch are much bulkier at the chest and flatter on the shoulder, this is also good symbolism to show that Echo may be a bad batcher but he is always a reg at heart
Enhanced Reg. Even Arc Troopers would struggle to compete with this lot.
Tech’s armor leaves him vulnerable in multiple areas, as a specialist he’s never on the front lines usually so that’s fine, but their crowd control and overwatch dude isn’t with them at the moment, so that’s not very comforting. No offense to Echo but he’s not very good at eyes in the sky.
@@empress9554 Echo and Tech both.
@Kristopher Prime i really like that, makes him feel more like echo than just a random new bad batcher, one last part of domino squad’s story still going.
@@empress9554 since Echo is a good hacker, he needs a flying sentry bot for reconnaissance. Echo is kinda restricted.
Ohh, showing Leia flying through space, the plotiest of all armors
Everyone remembers leia doing this, but not kanan
@@pedriasr because it felt much more believable with Kanan
@@The_Haha_Man its not that far from reality. Leia was a force user so
@@pedriasr but she wasn’t as trained as kanan
@Lord Ludicrous exactly. same way rey just decided to use jedi mind tricks And they worked
When are they going to give Omega some armor? Poor girl is running around in combat zones wearing only jeans and t-shirt.
My guy she is already wearing the best armor the elusive plot armor but for real that would be cool to see
@@owlwithahowl7798 ah yes, she is learning from the best I see
Still blows my mind that they let her tag along into dangerous situations. But the plot demands she always be there to save the squad of highly trained and well-armed super soldiers.
@@youtoob4life highly well trained doesn't always means your the smartest. Sometimes you over think something.
@@sinisterisrandom8537 that's true
Plot infused armor, always the best option.
C'mon, it's a Katarn armor. Gotta respect the Legends
It still wounded him a decent amount.
Shhh ur not supposed know about that
I mean the other commandos had them in legends. Why not them?
Not unless you're destined to die at the end. I would prefer not having my life be in the hands of writers.
"First generation clone armor still holds up,"
- Captain Rex in rebels
Wasn't there an episode where Rex get's shot like 2 or 3 times in Rebels?
Gen 1 Clone armor is actually stronger than Gen 2.
@@lapisinfernalis9052 yes. One in the helmet, and one in the chest-plate.
@@PRRepublicOfKorea it is
Just that gen 1 tends to be more stiff than gen 1.5 or gen 2
@@ImmaLittlePip Rex only kept the chest plate and part of the old helmet. The only point of lower protection on the phase 2 armor was the chest
Crosshair: (glares) "Get me on the ship!"
(Proceeds to attempt to mercilessly kill his former teammates and friends with a pissed off look on his face.)
Yeah that was a good moment
Looks like our old bounty hunter dengar has a new brother
What’s even worst, the real Crosshair is probably screaming deep in the subconscious because he can’t control himself.
@@LordBeerusGodofDestruction exactly!
So want to see when they remove crosshair’s chip. How piss off crosshair going to be toward the empire or would he willingly join the empire. Usually, I think most clone hate being slave to their chip.
Hunter: *gets shot in the chest by a blaster*
Everyone: Oh no!
Me: *eating popcorn knowing that Kartarn Armor can take to full force of a grenade and be fine*
That was in Legends, but in Canon evidently Gregor survived a massive explosion, so they might be about the same.
@@MistahFox
But is Clone wars really cannon?
Not just grenades but weapons up to light cannons, verpine shatter guns ( basically railguns ) as well as having deflector shields and being EMP hardened.
Then there was also a model of Katarn armor called Night Ops armor that featured a special stealth alloy that shielded the armor against sensors and made the wearer almost invisible to the naked eye.
Yeah commandos had the best gear.
@@infamousfrovi2068 It sure as hell is and it's way more cannon than what the sequel trilogy was.
@@clonescope2433
I didnt say it wasnt I was just asking no need to be so hostile
Trying to sneak in that Cad Bane being a faster draw than the Fetts claim. Not a chance
I think Cad is a better shot
14 yo Boba did match cad bane (or atleast the metal plate on bones head heavily implies that)
I too got triggerred by the statement haha
This is gonna be the Han or Greedo shot first of our generation
Update: He was right.
For me the Mandalorian gun battles were even more unrealistic since the only person the stormtroopers could shoot was the person wearing full body armor.
Also, just so y’all know, I love the Mandalorian. It’s such an awesome show
Yeah. That always bothered me a bit., I mean.. They have blasters.. A RANGED WEAPON. And yet they either charge towards the enemy until they either get shot or they reach the characters at basically melee range and then get knocked out in melle, Orrr they just pretend to aim until they get shot, and when they do aim they can't hit shit... Or they hit the one guy who has blaster resistant armour lol.
There was no tension in season 2 of Mandalorian because how many times he got shot.
@@darthpalpalzang7914 especially when they rushed boba who was only armed with a melee weapon…
@@opticalorange2316 lol yeah. Was still sick though.
I don’t think Crosshair is wearing his old armor. I think they made him brand new armor and it’s also probably just as cheap as most phase 2 clone armor.
Does explain how he was able to get pretty messed up. I think his original armor would have protected him a little bit more
I'm honestly thinking he's wearing some sort of prototype death trooper armor. It's likely better than phase 2 or the new stormtrooper armor, but not as good as it will eventually be
You are right cuz in season 3 when they meet again wrecker gives him his old armor and says it seemed wrong to get rid of it. The batch kept it for crosshair
Anything named after Kyle Katarn is inherently superior to the standard issue equipment. Just because it carries his name.
Most people fail to realize that Clone and Stormtrooper armor are not meant to "stop blaster fire" but rather "stop blaster fire from instantly killing"; the armor is designed to disperse the blast, so if you can get medical attention near enough to the time of the injury you could survive. The issue realized by both the Kaminoans and the GSE is that an hour of bacta, financially, costs more than completely training and equipping a new soldier.
People need to rewatch the Original Trilogy. And look at what happens when a blaster bolt hits a wall. IT FUCKING EXPLODES. Imagine that bolt hitting you WITHOUT "family friendly" censorship reducing the damage. If stone and steel wall explode in a shower of hot plasma and sparks... flesh stands little chance.
@@runakovacs4759 Han has modified blaster
@@goodmind4940 the term "modified" has very little actual meaning
@@goodmind4940 it’s hard to really use han as a baseline. He’s using a DL44 heavy blaster as a base (if memory serves correct) it’s like carrying a .44 magnum of blasters. It was renown for its ability to pierce stormtrooper armor. It had a double charge up on the bolts so each shot was twice as strong as a standard blaster.
@@frodobaggins2328 it also varies on what the blaster since some tend to be more weaker while there's also more standard aka medium then you have heavy. If we wanna get more specific we could also say repeating based blasters of all 3 categories, emp based weapons and disruptor weapons aka im incineration you slowly and painfully.
Clone Phase 1 was designed to handle tough blaster bolts more related to that of heavier medium weapons(E-11) but it doesn't mean you will always survive.
While Phase 2 provided more protection it was I believe slightly weaker so survivability was increased but the possible chance of you not having internal issues is low.
Imho, the Bad Batch has probably the naratively best depiction of armor out there. It's not useless cardboard like usual but it also doesn't make them nigh invulnerable like Din. The fact that it allows them to sustain a direct hit or two but not without relevant injury just is the perfect compromise between making your heroes believably robust and still vulnerable enough for tension.
to be fair most real life armour in the modern period is designed to protect from shrapenal and blasts rather than gunshot wounds, only the centure plate is effective against rifle calibre rounds and even then that depends on the vest and the range. clone armour could easily also just be intended mostly for artillery/bombs, since those are the prime killers in warfare.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 That is one of it's main functions, actually. Stormtrooper (and clone) armor is not designed to let the wearer tank a direct blaster shot and keep fighting, but to make it so the wearer is merely knocked out, instead of outright dying. Same goes for artillery and explosions - the wearer won't stay in the fight but they will stay alive.
At this point I don’t even dislike Omega or anything. Think she’s n e a t, but wouldn’t it be awesome if the fish sociopaths got ahold of some of her DNA and make some new batch of clones? I want another clone revolt dammit.
Isn’t she a clone though. Wouldn’t that mean that they would still have samples of fetts DNA?
@DanRage47 yeah, is as easy as moving one chromosome around and BOOM clone army part 2 (electric boogaloo)
Officially, there never was a 'clone rebellion' on kamino
@@maestrofeli4259 Gimme animated anti troopers
@@RandomGuy0400 Unofficially...
Hunter also extended his arm during the duel, like how a soldier would. Special forces soldiers even in real life never fire straight from the hip like how Cad did. Hunter was just shooting the way he was trained
yeah he was shooting useing a technique made for accuracy and precision rather than speed.
This isn’t true at all. SF and LE train to draw their sidearm and hip fire to quickly get shots on target when someone is within close range and poses an immediate threat. There’s so many videos on the internet of people in the special forces community doing this.
@@leosburner1199 well this isnt real life
@@leosburner1199 and I watch TONS of US SF vids... I've NEVER seen what you're talking abt performed by any of them
@@skoshi_tempest it's a close range tactic, that's why you don't see it often. If they're close enough that you don't need to aim, mistakes were made. But the goal is to start shooting first, so as soon as your sidearms out of the holster you're shooting until you get into a better stance
Apparently, Wrecker’s plot armor is bugged, so he periodically gets shot
😂 the big guy can take the hits for the team I guess
Its a trope called the Worf effect, where you establish how powerful an enemy is buy having him defeat one of the good guys, typically the Big Guy who is usually the one who is the strongest and so it becomes more of an "oh this is bad" when the guy you can expect to carry the team through the fight goes down momentarily.
Named after Worf from Star Trek who despite being the big strong security chief born of a race well known for their strength in melee still winds up getting his ass beat on the regular by the new big bads of the week when they first show up and board.
I just wanna say that for commandos they seem to have gotten rid of their shields. Even Gregor didn’t have shields when he got shot in season 5. I guess they just have the armor in cannon.
Thing is, the shields have to be charged, and given how long Gregor's armour just laid around (after enabling him survive his arrival to that planet) I'd argue that his shields were depleted.
I got no argument for BB tho, aside from what Allen already said.
@@eXhaustedWisdom Well, there's a chance some things will be decannonized soon...
Anyways, things are better now than they were before Mandalorian, Bad Batch, and the Final Season of Clone Wars. Those were all pretty good additions that definitely help forget that the sequels are still cannon... At least for now.
@@olafgurke4699 A depleted shield would recharge. Of course it could have been burned out.
As for thee bad batch, they may have just had more basic katarn armor without the shields, as they were just defective clones and not commandos.
@@danielboatright8887 Well, they are structured as a Commando Squad, are used like one, and operate like one. I'd say they most certainly are considered as Commandos. But their armour is severely modified, so who knows what modifications there really have been made.
Well, Scorch had his shield when he attacked Batchers and Gregor.
Finally!! Some armor in Star Wars that can survive more than one blaster hit besides beskar
It is also possible that Gregor may have had his deflector shield on with low power.
Came here for Kyle, got Katarn armor
BITCH SAME
Hilarious, I see what you did there.
Yay Kyle Katarn, my fav EU character!
Man... When are they gonna bring him in? I'm hoping they do, he was a pretty dang cool character. Corran Horn too.
I think the helmet flying issue is actually a design feature. Helmets are surprisingly heavy for your neck and spine to support on top of a 10 pound mass with poor leverage, and most fatalities and head/neck injuries involved in explosions or vehicle crashes are from that weight snapping and whipping your neck around.
That why its important to get the proper light weight type of helmet which provides the best in protection and gives neck and head reflexology protection.
Fit and design with the dynamics of modern helmet is the reason many survive. With minimal head and neck injuries
@@raymondkisner9240 I say again, *fatalities* and head/neck injuries*. The US Army has helmets inside a vehicle as a unit to unit policy because people keep getting killed by their helmets in crashes.
@@raymondkisner9240 those aren't exactly shrapnel or bullet-resistant. The army has been desperately trying to make those for a century now, to no avail. The current kevlars are still the best we got, and still kill people in rollover incidents.
I’d love to see Kyle Katarn adapted into one of these shows
Would Kyle katarn wear katarn armor?
That would be fantastic. He was one of the ultimate commandos after all.
Yes, Kyle in his Imperial days. Before he met Jan Ors.
@@Straswa it was a joke. Kyle katarn with katarn armor
@@MercShame Oh, ok.
Alan is secretly the Dolphin Overlord. Don't trust him!
Morning guys, have a great weekend and enjoy the new episode!!🤙🏻
I'm fairly certain that instead of ruining his inhibitor chip it was the point of no return. Lets not forget that Tarkin wanted him loyal past the chips normal constraints and he's been living with this modified chip. I think that ion blast has the potential to make it so he cannot live without the inhibitor. Cue the death trooper theories or perhaps a final stand where Crosshair can apologize and say what he truly means but has no control over his actions like Rex in Clone Wars but this time he would need to be put down.
I hope that is how Bad Batch Ends.
What if Luke had gone with Han when he asks In the New Hope just before the Deathstar battle???? Like sixth time🥴
Wedge would’ve done it himself
What if Qui Gon didnt break his ship lol 😆 & we all know that dice was landing on blue soo Vader almost never existed Qui Gon!!
Yavin IV ceases to exist that’s what happens
Clone/storm trooper armor is very similar to our modern day body armor; it is designed to slowdown the incoming projectiles or provide a glancing blow. Bullets produce kinetic energy on impact, so modern body armor just as the clone/storm trooper armor tries to disperse the energy across the body. Modern body armor isn't bulletproof but provides an extra layer that bullets need to pass.
Note, Tech wears Clone Pilot Armor, not commando armor.
What a lot of people don’t get is when a clone gets shot they usually don’t die. The regular phase 1 and phase 2 armor was made of a lightweight plastoid alloy that was designed to disperse the energy of a laser blast throughout the armor. Blasters were extremely powerful, which is why you see the clones getting knocked back when they get shot. It was still painful for them to get shot and they would sometimes get knocked out, but due to the excellent design of the armor, most clones you see get shot end up surviving.
People sleep on the reg armor quite a bit.
Same with Stormtroopers
@@rookhousestudios3686 yeah even in rogue one we see a stormtrooper get shot multiple times before dying
@@easywork9777 yeah stormtroopers deserve more respect
Case and point, Commander Thorn high on adrenaline fighting to the death.
@@cryptosporidium1375 that was one of the coolest moments in all of Star Wars imo
The question is, if the Katarn armor is THAT good, why don't more troops have it?
The Katarn-class armor is expensive to get for all Reg troopers.
@@monkeymunchie9717 I see...
Still, why didn't ARC-troopers or others special forces wear it?
@@jotheunissen9274 Clone Commando have Katarn-Class Armor since they are elites than the Regs. But as for ARC, I think they use the standard armor just the rest of the Regs.
@@monkeymunchie9717 Thank you
Clone Commandos are well-equipped for ferociously missions, something that Regs and other cannot complete. So they have better armor and equipments to complete their missions.
Todays episode of the bad batch was great!! Omega is a pure Jango clone!!!! I had a hunch she was a pure 1st Gen & another great GT episode as always Allen you deserve a cameo in a star wars show IMO
Omega is the sister of Boba and might appear in the book of Boba fight.
Can you please not put spoilers in your comments? I don’t mean to sound rude of I do.
@Its Monke stop being an asshole,he didn't see the episode he shouldn't have it spoiled.
Ok but to be fair i waited till 11pm the day the episode was released am i not to talk on anything till everybody see's it lol and we all knew omega was the big deal from episode 1 lol coming from a cloning facility lol how could she not be a Fett 1st Gen DNA that is super sought after but darth vader is gonna darth vader ya know
In the scene where Hunter regains his consciousness the same sound effect that plays in republic commando when your shield recharges is used indicating that they in fact do have the same energy shields as delta squad
its literally the exact same scene
4:35 Every single time I see that clip I can't stop looking at that clone on the left that gets shot but they apparently forgot to add a blaster bolt hitting him.
My God, I'd never seen that. The guy behind the airborne trooper right?
he did get shot he got hit in the neck, it’s a very short period of a blast around his neck
@@turtlemasteralpha119 yeah you're right, he does take a shot that hits near his neck or shoulder.
Did a solid projectile hit him because there were some sparks coming from the armor
The Mandalorian: *takes the same amount of blaster fire that would overload a droideka's shield*
Also the Mandalorian: "That's going to hurt for a while."
Leia's space flight isn't plot armor. Her surviving an explosion thanks to a table protecting only her, that's the plot armor. But her flight is not.
Commando armor is basically mjolnir.
Tough material with shields.
As soon as you said that bane's hands are some of the quickest in the galaxy and superior to either of the fetts is when I subscribed, cad bane is so underrated love seeing him in the bad batch
Everyone keeps talking about the ion engine frying Crosshair's inhibitor chip, i'm wondering where the hell that even came from? The inhibitor chip is known to be on the right side of the head, Crosshair takes most of the damage from the ion engine on the left side of his head and face.
Furthermore, he immediately gives the command to keep after them and not let them escape while getting bandaged up. I don't get it, why do people think the ion engine somehow destroyed his chip?
Later Katarn Class armors can take an direct hit from an ship turbolaser, and the Armor is still intact.
But the price of an Katarn armor was the same of an Cruiser when I am correct remember.
Sorry for the meh english, not my native language.
As awlays, really impressive.. Love looking at the lore of Star wars
Meanwhile, regular Stormtrooper's armor:
"How does this protect us from harm?"
"That's the neet part, it doesn't" :D
Fun Fact: Not only the Katarn armor was named in honor of the famous Hero Kyle Katarn ( even 20 years before he was famous! ), the wookiees even named a dangerous creature of Kashyyyk after the bearded bad-ass.
Kyle Katarn is the monster Krayt Dragons tell scary bed time stories to their kids about.
About a month late but frankly having a helmet not strapped on is abit safer then having it strapped on, one main reason is the force behind a shot could in fact hit the helmet which causes the force and impact of the shot to be transferred to the helmet itself which as we know crosshair didn’t get shot but his helmet flew off at such a speed it would of either broke his neck or completely crushed his jaw and probably more if it was strapped on
Just here to say love the videos made and I look forward to the next uploads
Every suit has a single strand of His beard
Avg police distance during a gunfire situation is 3m. Avg hit rate for police according to police reports is 18%.
The Katarn armor has a hair of Kyle Katarn's beard woven into the armor plates,making it invincible.
The Republic Commando book series explains the Katarn pattern armor as having environmental seals, and life support measures that seem to be missing from The Bad Batch. Weird that their helmets can be knocked off so easily.
Armor named about one of the greatest Rebel and New Republic heroes just must be quite special.
It would be a better character arc for Crosshair if the Bad Batch remove his chip and he still follows orders regardless.
Damn, that's excatly what happened
I also think that Hunter has Bacta modules in his armor, since you can hear the Bacta dispenser sound effect from the game the second he wakes up.
I think that this might be the reason he's still alive.
Hey has anyone else noticed that crosshair looks a lot like Dangar after the engin blew up
Really Disappointed that they heavily nerfed the Katarn Armor since in Legends it made them stand out more from the Clone Trooper Armor
clone commando RC-8015 (Fi) jumped on a thermal detonator while wearing Katarn stealth kit (A derivative of Mark III usually referred to as Mark IV) he got rattled around a little bit before getting back up and continuing the fight, later on, while still in Katarn class commando armor it saved his life (barely as he suffered such a severe TBI that a medical droid thought he was brain dead.) after he took almost direct fire from some form of friendly artillery, likely the turbo-lasers of Venator class star destroyer his squadmate Darman who was about 15 feet from him was knocked over and incapacitated for a few seconds before getting back up both of them were able to walk back to a gunship before Fi collapsed unconscious.
I'm still so bothered by the fact that Tech just strolled into the open and no one stopped him, and I'm even more bothered that Crosshair missed an open shot by such a large margin... I guess the showrunners didn't want to ditch plot armour completely.
Sadly “more durable armor” never works in real life modern warfares.
If a 50 cal hits your torso, it is guaranteed to squish your organs to jelly, even if your armor somehow stopped it
Unless your armor isn't connected to your body such as a portable wall or something like that but other than that yeah expect jelly
@@freekill1018 or if it's connected to an exo-skeleton that could take the force of a .50
I’m pretty sure it’s like canon now that a 14 year old Boba headshot Cad Bane. Granted he also got headshot but that’s just an advantage of wearing a helmet over a hat
Clone force 99 still gets knocked by blasters even having armor while our plot armor boys with just a shirt eat blaster shots for dinner.
Should also be noted that in Episode 14 a clone commando takes 5 shots to the chest from DC-15s Blaster Carbines and was still alive and well despite being shot 5 times in rapid succession.
And Gregor Katarn Armor not only took several shots from E-5s, and Droideka's, DC-15s and a giant explosion.
Then you have Commando's in the EU jumping on grenades, taking point blank rounds from shatter guns ( which are basically railguns ) and tanking shots up to light cannon rounds.
So yeah Katarn armor was pretty fricking durable and when you had a halo style regenerating deflector shields the armor was pretty awesome at stopping lethal damage.
With the fact that Clone troopers and Storm trooper armour can knock them out getting hit, just makes me think about how Commander Thorn took multiple shots and didnt go down after his first.
Oh so that's why Hunter got knocked out in the duel with cad bane, well it reflected, and looked like he was dead to Omega who probably didn't notice or know this.
So is your next video gonna be you explaining yourself and the statement that Cad Bane is a better bounty hunter than either of the Fett's?
The disrespect contained in his statement was amazing, my man straight up forgot that Cad Bane was gonna be executed by a TEENAGE Boba Fett
As explained by Darth Plagueis, high skill with weapons and luck in battle are manifestations of Force aptitude, even if it isn't enough to make one a psychic. Han Solo is capable of death defying stunts in battle because he has a higher than average midi-chlorean count, though as I said, it's still not enough to make him sensitive to the Force. Well, that and his stubbornness. For all we know, he could be a Jedi if he'd open his mind to the prospect of letting the Force guide him.
i really dont like how recker got so easily knocked out because ''ooh shes good in hand to hand combat'' like first, obviously the armor that can protect you from a multiple story high fall, but also recker being superhumanly strong, and trained as a clone comando, like he usually seems childish and not super bright but in combat hes clearly effective, he isnt just a brute, but there he gets knocked out just like one
i mean, the fact she is good in hand to hand combat is a perfectly valid reason?? doesnt matter how big and strong someone is, a blow to the head is dangerous, and can very easily be fatal, and knocking someone out when you slam their head against a pipe, using his momentum as he dashed towards her pretty damn fast, is pretty damn easy
Kyle Katarn given armored form! (Just happy the name is sticking around at this point)
Hey that intro... ;-; Bruh.. WHERE DID YOU GET IT.. Also that voice and face I knew cringe was a commin
I still can't get over how weak the katarn armor in the bad batch is, like in the game, novels commandos not just survived direct hits, one time I remember in a novel one of Omega squads members got shot in the visor and didn't even get knocked out, katarn armor was almost as strong as beskar, they could take hits without a scratch like Din, but in the bad batch the armor is so weak, almost like regular clone armor, they get knocked down every time they get shot, even from a low powered e5, this is just ridicolous, like Hunter got knocked out and injurjed by getting hit in the most powerful area of his armor by a pistol??
Do you think the same logic applied to Rex back when he got sniped in the chest?
Straight up thought I watched Hunter get shot down right in front of me.
Straight up record scratch, jaw open, “no no no no no...” going through my head.
Fuckin hell, was not expecting that.
Clone Force 99’s armor seems like a less advanced than Gregor’s or Delta Squad’s armor bc they don’t have personal shields. Maybe it’s a Mark 2, or maybe they gave them the less advanced version bc they were the odd balls that no one expected to succeed?
Imagine if they made a suit of katarn Armor with beskar. Just imagine the engineering and beskar armor plating.
I wonder what happens if Katarn has a thin layer of Beskar?
Haha That was a good intro.
The Fennec Shan thing with wrecker was just stupid. There was no justifiable reason for that to have knocked him out. Under no circumstances was she strong enough to throw the man who dents floors when he jumps on them into a wall.
In Legends Fi jumps on a grenade and survives intact, it takes an entire building exploding to do any damage, he still lives though.
The comparison of the Ion Engine to chemotheropy made me laugh so hard
If Jedi and Sith can dodge blaster bolts, why can't Han Solo? After all, they are all force sensitive.
Hunter turns him and examines his scars after he stuns Crosshair and notices his burns are on the wrong side for the chip, so it may be malfunctioning, but he is not free of it yet. I think the next episode may take them back to the Salvage planet where they will meet Rex bringing Wolf to have his chip removed.
In the RC novels, they get hit by blaster shots and don't go down, and that was in the first novel, with only Mk I Katarn armor.
just remember that the weapons used by the security droids, Crosshair and Cad Bane use different level weapons in that order
Nah Crosshair's sniper rifle would be more powerful than Mr Bane's pistol
Watching this vid post-season 1 finale and I'm betting that glancing shot Crosshair gave Wrecker wasn't a miss at all, but was exactly where Crosshair wanted to hit him. If so, it only reinforces Crosshair's claims that he'd removed his chip or at least that it wasn't controlling him to the extent the empire wanted it to.
Clearly the armor was made from the beard trimings of Kyle Katarn which can only be cut with a lightsaber
"Superior to either Fetts" I don't know about that, Seeing as how it takes Jedi grandmasters to take a Fett out
So, the whole season is just a marketing campaign for the Katarn armor :D
Katarn armor is really as strong as it is just because of its association with Kyle Katarn. It's all in the name.
Can't wait to see omega get her armor cad got as good as he gave last episode
Just look at it, obviously it’s netherite.
Interesting thing to note is that Hunter was able to draw his blaster slightly faster than Cad Bane but because he was never trained to quick draw, he couldn’t fire first.
That moment you’re so badass, you get armor named after you before you’re even born. 😆
Plot armor is super tight
And hunter survived a blaster bolt from the bounty hunter cad bane, and wrecker survived crosshair's sniper blaster bolt. This is true armor I can use on my body and chest. That I would have a fair chance of surviving blaster bolts just as clone force 99 can.
One of the Commandos in Omega Squad takes a viscous fall in his Katarn armor and it puts him in a coma. They said the armor had protected him from injury but it was still like rolling down a hill in a cardboard box and mashed up his brain.
Please do a video on why the ARC-170 was misused by the Republic and should have been in a dive bomber role
I love echos helmet it’s the coolest by far IMO
Same but he's visor seems impractical because of how small it is
I'll just save you 9 minutes: because the plot demands it.
Wouldn't this shit be like.. really heavy?
Anyone else get a Dengar vibe off of crosshair?
The strongest material in fiction: plot.
If the katarn armour had deflector shields equipped to them for the clone commandos during the clone wars why didn’t Clone Force 99 upgrade or replace theirs with the versions that did have them?
writers didn't do research
The latest episode seemed to made it obvious now that the Kaminoan Uprising is inevitable.
Kaminoans: WE ARE INEVITABLE!
Palpatine: AND I AM ALL THE SITH!
