In the game Jedi academy, one of the weapons you can choose is the Tenloss DXR Disruptor rifle. This means luke is willing to hand out illegal weaponry to all his students.
One reason to ban them which I'm surprised you didn't mention is that it is one of the few weapons that would have a chance of killing Vader, or even Palpatine (although less so simply because he very rarely was in a position of risk). Disruptor rifles are somewhere between difficult and impossible to block with a lightsaber depending on who you ask, and while Vader might have some protection against it, I doubt it would be much. Therefore, a single rebel or other enemy of the Empire with a Disruptor rifle would have a much greater chance of taking out Vader than a whole battalion of soldiers equipped with normal blaster rifles. So, what's the solution? Ban them and put the blame on ethical reasons.
There's one tactic that takes out lightsaber wielders extremely easily, which I don't understand why they don't use. That would be a civil war firing line. Jedi can only deflect so many bolts, or even like 1 at a time. If you fire an entire volley of bolts, there's no way they could deflect even half.
Disintegrator banning is 100% propaganda. No one would know if you would actually feel that way. So glad someone mentioned this as opposed to just stating it as fact
@@curbstompzombiekillerz wasn’t boba carrying a disintegrator? It being harder to collect on bounties wouldn’t be why the empire would ban them however

Honestly, i just think that they want it to be dark and gruesome for shock value, I doubt this thing would be able to cause the victim to experience pain for minutes if what its doing is simply disrupting molecules, there is of course no research about how this feels, so its really what the writers want physics to be. Also, kind of funny how it doesn't seem to destroy clothing. They could have said that it only affects organic molecules because of fictional space tech or do something more with the weapon, it being "so slow and excruciating" just feels kind of edgy and lame as a reason to ban it, specially if the weapon is so powerful.
@@marcusrauch4223 because its complete bs. its either terrible writing or actually in universe propaganda...which if science exists would be immediately debunked
The imperium maybe had more a problem with the "piercing almost any type of shield" and the "highly effective against star fighters" part than with the "it's so cruel" part.
Imperium is Warhammer40K lol. But I agree, it also would be 1000X more effective against Inquisitors, Vader, and Palpatine since I imagine it's near impossible to block or deflect due to the instability of the bolt (Though they can slow or stop the bolts, or just dodge). Even if it doesn't disintegrate entire vehicles, the ionic charge carried would probably destroy smaller craft's electronic systems, and EMP even larger Vehicles (Probably not ATATs though). So yeah I don't think I would want terrorists (in the Empire's eyes) to have guns that disintegrate people on contact and demolish starships. Also even if it doesn't cripple or destroy the Starship or vehicle in one shot, the structural integrity would be nonexistent by that point anyway, EMP notwithstanding (Starfighters would fall out of the sky and get crushed against the ground even if they don't get blown up on direct impact with the bolt)
Mentally taking a long time to die seems unlikely with the better question being how on Courosant could they possibly know that, the answer is that they couldn’t
@@MatSki it’s probably banned because it goes right through shields and that horrible death thing is something they made up so that the good guys wouldn’t use it

one more thing is even if the nerve stimulation excuse were true, nerve impulses only travel at ~200mph, so EVEN if your nerves were stimulated by being shot by the rifle, you physically wouldnt exist by the time the impulse reaches your brain i personally think the "possibly being anti mandalorian propoganda" thing is just an excuse for really shitty writing lmao

Fun fact: on Star Trek, Disruptor weapons also exist. And at least one of its specific types, the Varon Disruptor, is also aggressively banned by that universe’s interstellar Federation. Due to very FACTUALLY and VISIBLY what this disruptor is accused of. To the point that only a handful is known to exist anymore and almost all are confiscated and secured.
I can't believe I watched the entirety of The Mandalorian and never realized until now that his rifle was a disruptor and not a regular blaster. So everyone he shot with it was completely disintegrated and had no chance of surviving, and died in the most painful way possible. Damn, that's brutal.
Yeah that part of about a victim's molecules affecting their perception of time is bullshit. How you perceive time is dependent on one's "Critical Flicker Fusion Frequency", and how quickly your brain processes things. The slower your processes, the faster time goes. The faster your processes, the slower time goes. Therefore if your molecules are being shredded, especially in your brain, you're more likely going to die even FASTER from your perspective.
Might be different kinds of disruptors. Legends they could go through meters of even tougher SW metals. In Rebels it was stated they could disable vehicles. While Din's rifle plinked off an AT-ST seemingly harmlessly, exhibiting neither of the above qualities.
Me, who knew none of this and always used to give my ranged characters in KOTOR disruptor weapons so I didn't have to deal with energy shields: ...WELL NOW.
Bro. Banning this rifle reminds me a hell of a lot like the current ban on AR 15s in Canada and Australia and the push to do so in the U.S. Mando shows us to never give up your arms.
If all your molecules disintegrate simultaneously you wouldn’t feel a thing because impulse from nerve would travel slower than disintegration process occurs
Run a microsecond timed high powered shield through someone's belly, which is activated a nanosecond after you shoot them in the foot, then afterwards ask the remaining top half how it felt. I am curious now.
probably only when it suited them Any single time a Rebel mission might have caught civilians in the crossfire or were deliberately targeted, ez warcrime label. Discounting all the other times that the Empire did much worse-
I firmly believe this is a case of mistaken identity, a disruptor has been shown to fire pulses of electricity that can fry fighters and walkers in various depictions, if that same weapon violently and painfully electrocuted someone to death than I could believe why it might be considered unethical to use. Din's rifle, with it's complete inability to affect vehicles of any kind more than a regular blaster would, is not a disruptor, it is a disintegrator.
Or maybe a jedi got killed by one and could report the gruesomness of the weapon after returning as a forceghost. Edit: wouldn't be very devious if you consider the long feud between jedi and mandalorians

I would not want to get shot with this but then again, how do they know that this gun causes such pain if all the nerve endings are gone, paranormal activity?
Also bcz, at least in Legends, it was very power hungry, it drained blasters' batteries after few rounds, consider that with a standard blaster you can fire about 250+ rounds, with a disgregator you're lucky with less than 25, plus the range was inferior than a conventional one(always in Legends)
I gotta say, this makes no sense. You can not perceive time any slower or faster than time itself - or at the rate of entropy in your particular location as I'd define it. When you get an adrenaline rush, time does not slow down rather your sense receptors are able to process greater information at once which creates the illusion of time "slowing down". Get in your car, or a car or bus or bicycle even, then start driving. As you focus you get a sort of adrenaline rush which allows you to become more perceptive, not slow down time due to the speeds you drive. So a disrupter would excite your senses, but all of them. This, to my mind, would ultimately leave the victim in such shock that they literally don't know how to perceive what just happened. It sounds more like a painless, albeit confusing, quick death as you'd disintegrate in a matter of a second. In order to warp time itself it essentially bending gravity around you, which this gun doesn't do. With my limited understanding of physics, this propaganda is nonsense. I believe it is purely political. You know, just like how Joe Biden said a 9 mm pistol is capable of literally blowing out internal organs. Yeah, apparently it's that deadly.
"quick and painless" did you not see what I saw? the shock wave from the blast is acting like what would happen if you dropped a nuke. in a nuke situation the heat of those in close proximity of the initial blast will instantly incinerate that's painless... how ever those further away are less lucky... the shock wave is strong enough to tear trees from the roots, topple buildings and send all life forms flying into anything and everything. should you be unlucky enough to survive that you have the heat, and if you survive that.... the worst.... nuclear fallout. however we are looking at some sort of plasma beam which I'm basing purely off blasters, so it's heat...lots and lots of heat... but there was a shock wave with showed similar effects of a nuclear payload (without the ionising radiation) so all the above I'd assume there would be fallout but again no radiant to worry about.... just molten rock and debris... totally painless....right?
From a bio perspective we have already disproved the ability for the human mind to perceive things “faster.” But what the brain can do is perceive things “better.” So they might still feel all that horrible pain, but it would only be as long as that part of the body is connected to the brain.
I would imagine that feeling extreme pain for 1/100 of a second and then stopping to feel and think anything immediately is effectively the same as not feeling anything at all.
My ideal lightsaber would be mace windu’s lightsaber. I feel like as one of the few main black characters in stars it always gave me someone I could see myself in when I was younger look up to. he is portrayed as powerful, intelligent and has a dark side that that he controls with discipline. #giveaway #myfirstsaber #macewindu
Hmm... that reasoning is definitely sus. How would they know how it felt to be blasted by that thing if the target was completely disintegrated and can't relate what it was like? No. That's just from someone's imagination, and as you say, for propaganda.
Blaster: It vaporizes part of your body and boils the water in the surrounding tissue but doesn't necessarily kill you - a-OK Disruptor: It vaporizes you instantly, without any pain - BANNED! That supposedly altered perception of time sounds like a very lazy lore explanation why a a weapon that's much more effective isn't more widely used. I'm not buying it.
It has to be Imperial/Old Republic propaganda. I don't buy it for a minute either, but the propaganda angle makes the explanation make a lot more sense.
Seriously even if the perception of time for the body changes, I doubt it can exceed anything above a couple of milliseconds. in the end the perception of time and pain is generated by electronic waves passing through our body. So the time with wich our brain reacts to something is bound to the speed of electricity in our body. it cannot be signifantly faster or slower than that, since our brain is adapted for exactly this patters. so if every single cell in our body light up simultanously, the brain would only get the information about itself since the rest of the intel cannot reach the brain in such a short amount of time while everything breaks down in a fraction of a second. In other words: Its propaganda and the real reason why its banned is its precise effectiveness
Stop over using the term "war crime". They made it illegal, like in the USA certain firearms aren't legal..... doesn't mean owning or using one is a "war crime"

So a disrupter would excite your senses, but all of them. This, to my mind, would ultimately leave the victim in such shock that they literally don't know how to perceive what just happened. It sounds more like a painless, albeit confusing, quick death as you'd disintegrate in a matter of a second.
In order to warp time itself it essentially bending gravity around you, which this gun doesn't do. With my limited understanding of physics, this propaganda is nonsense. I believe it is purely political. You know, just like how Joe Biden said a 9 mm pistol is capable of literally blowing out internal organs. Yeah, apparently it's that deadly.
Imagine if they made a machine gun disintergator...
That would probably look like that gun in war of the worlds on the tripods.
@@marcusrauch4223 it would look more like the puckle gun because it has separate charges
Yeah i’m calling cap on that minutes or hours thing
Cool weapon, not cruel weapon!
1:31 what game is that ive never seen it?
Battlefront (2015)
The pain makes some sense, but I really don't get the time dilation effect.
Errr, not actual time dilation, just psychological. Still don't get the physics of it tho
"quick and painless"
did you not see what I saw? the shock wave from the blast is acting like what would happen if you dropped a nuke.
in a nuke situation the heat of those in close proximity of the initial blast will instantly incinerate that's painless... how ever those further away are less lucky... the shock wave is strong enough to tear trees from the roots, topple buildings and send all life forms flying into anything and everything.
should you be unlucky enough to survive that you have the heat, and if you survive that.... the worst.... nuclear fallout.
however we are looking at some sort of plasma beam which I'm basing purely off blasters, so it's heat...lots and lots of heat... but there was a shock wave with showed similar effects of a nuclear payload (without the ionising radiation) so all the above I'd assume there would be fallout but again no radiant to worry about.... just molten rock and debris... totally painless....right?
To everyone wondering how they knew it slowed time: Jedi Ghosts lol
I don't understand why stimulating all neurons would cause a subjective difference in time's perception . . .
From a bio perspective we have already disproved the ability for the human mind to perceive things “faster.”
But what the brain can do is perceive things “better.” So they might still feel all that horrible pain, but it would only be as long as that part of the body is connected to the brain.
I would imagine that feeling extreme pain for 1/100 of a second and then stopping to feel and think anything immediately is effectively the same as not feeling anything at all.
so its basically 12/70 flechette in tarkov
Imagine calling someone who didnt actually partake in a war a criminal
So its kinda just a blaster with a compressor.... like a normal dodge challenger compared to a hellcat srt
How do they know how time is perceived by victims?
Trench Gun of star wars
I feel they might have banned it because of how effective it was, and they wamted to make it easier to get for the rebels
Why did Grogu do nothing to stop using that disruptor rifle? Is he actually a Sith?
That rifle is as humane as they get, bruh, if it instantly disintergrates you, then how can it be cruel, if you immedeately stop existing.
2:24 did you watch that part numbskull
It was banned because of how effective it is. The cruel death part is bs and propaganda.
But how would they know?
how did the imperials find out about this?
I think Din is just a based Chad for using it. Man doesn't give af. Based
My ideal lightsaber would be mace windu’s lightsaber. I feel like as one of the few main black characters in stars it always gave me someone I could see myself in when I was younger look up to. he is portrayed as powerful, intelligent and has a dark side that that he controls with discipline. #giveaway #myfirstsaber #macewindu
Even if it was true, how tf would they have discovered this?!
I wanna know who thought all this up🤣🤣🤣
Beacuse Stormtrooper armour only stops leagal grade blaster bolts. The DR is brutal. not for civilain use lol :)
They themselves don’t want to be targeted. If they had a monopoly on their use - *Of course THEY would use them.*
How did they discover this is what happens to the victims??? How do we know that's true??
What game is that at 1:23 ?
I’m pretty sure that’s Star Wars Battlefront 1 (2015)
Hmm... that reasoning is definitely sus.
How would they know how it felt to be blasted by that thing if the target was completely disintegrated and can't relate what it was like?
No. That's just from someone's imagination, and as you say, for propaganda.
How do we know how the victim feels tho? They disintegrate?
WHat song is playing in the background!? It's the exact same tune as gunship - shadow fury: ruclips.net/video/kpuhy8iBvVo/видео.html
Sounds a lot like the current President’s view on any gun with the whole “blows the king out of the body” BS.
Summary: alr so basically this weapon kinda really super bad. But hey, that's just a theory.
Destiny 2 Arbelast
Blaster: It vaporizes part of your body and boils the water in the surrounding tissue but doesn't necessarily kill you - a-OK
Disruptor: It vaporizes you instantly, without any pain - BANNED!
That supposedly altered perception of time sounds like a very lazy lore explanation why a a weapon that's much more effective isn't more widely used. I'm not buying it.
It has to be Imperial/Old Republic propaganda. I don't buy it for a minute either, but the propaganda angle makes the explanation make a lot more sense.
@@KaaneDragonShinobi Yep, the weapon was banned because of how effective is it and how easy it would be to assassinate somebody with it.
Nope the target was instantly disintegrated. They didn't know what hit them. Period.
No need to try to imagine it to be anything else.
Seriously even if the perception of time for the body changes, I doubt it can exceed anything above a couple of milliseconds. in the end the perception of time and pain is generated by electronic waves passing through our body. So the time with wich our brain reacts to something is bound to the speed of electricity in our body. it cannot be signifantly faster or slower than that, since our brain is adapted for exactly this patters. so if every single cell in our body light up simultanously, the brain would only get the information about itself since the rest of the intel cannot reach the brain in such a short amount of time while everything breaks down in a fraction of a second.
In other words: Its propaganda and the real reason why its banned is its precise effectiveness
What if darth Vader was hit with it
Weapons are my religion. This is the way.
So anyways, I started disintegrating...
Stop over using the term "war crime". They made it illegal, like in the USA certain firearms aren't legal..... doesn't mean owning or using one is a "war crime"
who said it was?
i think this man needs to go back to school and learn how relativity works. "It works take minutes if not hours"
You need to get to the point in your videos, instead of spending the firsr minute repeating the title and asking the question 2 more times, then adding basic knowledge everyone already knows.
The reason is so stupid! :D
the time thing is bullshit it doesnt make sense
SHUT
No disintegrations...
yo dudes accent for youtube is a joke,
Goes from high pitch fast talking and finishes EVERY sentance, with a low pitch drawwnnn ooouuuttttt last wordddddd
