fuckingtest posted:EDIT: Is there "Force-Navigation" in the EU? Like can a Jedi calculate where he's going to jump in lightspeed with the force? I would swear I read a book as a child that said a Jedi could plot lightspeed jumps by using the force, but a cursory google search doesn't turn up anything substantial. This thread inspired me to replay KOTOR 2 (fully patched), so I guess the EU isn't completely without merit.

fuckingtest posted:It needs a navigator. Let's Just shove an Artoo D-2 in the front and call it a day... Yeah. Seems mostly based around danger sense. Darth Bane I think gets stuck in the deep core and has to baby step his way in and out with the force which amounts to some unknown combination of jumping blind only to drop back before you hit a planet and using the force to somehow sense the right path to take and telling the navi computer "take this path" and the navicomputer just does it because the story requires it. Kyp Durron flew in between black holes by sensing them and flying through the places that the black holes meet to not get sucked into either one. I'm sure there are other examples.

Somebody mentioned earlier about force-choking a Hutt and I'm 99% sure that came up in an EU book of some kind, and it flat out wasn't possible to do for some bullshit reason. So yeah, chalk another one up to "I wonder if that's in the EU--of course it is." So what's the stupidest light saber. I don't mean like, stupidest light saber type of weapon, I mean an actual old school light saber sword. I heard some of them have goofy poo poo inside of them instead of crystals and I never dug in to see how dumb the books ran with the idea.

Defeat the Force ghost that spawns. Once defeated, a Crystal Node will spawn near the Depleted node. From this you will obtain the Magenta Adgean crystal needed to craft the crystal." God drat it.

What's the worst lightsaber fight in the EU? I know it's probably the one between the Ewok Jedi and the Hutt Sith, but are there any other bad ones that I missed?

This race relied on a technology called entechment that involved extracting the life-energies of sentient beings and using them as power sources for their mechanical technology. They had a sizable war fleet and ruled an empire called the Ssi-ruuvi Imperium in the Ssi-ruuk Star Cluster near the galaxy's rim. "LIFE ENERGIES" technically, but if you're not going to explain it better than that, what can you mean but "soul?"

There was something posted earlier about Hutts eating some substance that makes them resistant or outright immune to the force. Or maybe the force just can't overcome that huge fat neck?

He built it using scrap parts from a ship, used some random emeralds and diamonds from some furniture for the crystals. Oh, and It's also a special DUAL PHASE LIGHTSABER, so he can make the blade like 10 feet long.

It would be great if just once one of these cobbled together lightsabers turned out to be incredibly lovely like you would expect a weapon made out of junk to be.

Oh, and Tenel Ka's first lovely lightsaber, made out of a loving rancor tooth and used crappy lava crystals. Didn't work out so well, the blade disappeared mid saber-lock, got her arm cut off, then the arm remains were destroyed when the faulty lightsaber loving EXPLODED.

It's like the author wanted one of those "special episode" lessons in the series for some dumb reason. Oh, and the heir to a major galactic power can keep her identity anonymous while a student of the only Jedi Academy in the galaxy, because when the books were written the authors didn't think that a massive information sharing technology would exist in the Star Wars universe.

Maybe you're thinking of Dune, which would be forgivable since I'm sure there's an EU novel that is literally Dune (even more than Desert Planets and Space Wizard Monks that were in the films from the get)

I looked up Dual Phase and apparently Darth Vader had one. I'm guessing the lightsaber lengths changed while filming due to special effects changes, so his lightsaber was slightly longer in some fights than others. DUAL PHASE god, I love when nerds rationalize prop inconsistencies with ~lore~

Tearsaslube posted:This is a random pull, but did anyone read darth maul shadow hunter? Itwas p badass I almost listened to that but went with the one about obi wan and qui gon and the conference on Eriadu, I'm only halfway through and can't recall the title. I'll check out shadow hunter after Tarkin. (Which isn't exactly bad but holy poo poo is every main character in a book a super Gary Sue, turns out Tarkin was a total badass that subjugated a violent space ape colony with his wits and a single spear, it's pretty dumb) Edit: and Tarkin's dumb super ship. Before this one I thought maybe Lucerno was a cut above the average EU author, silly me. Oh and the best part is Sheev desperately wants Tarkin and Vader to have best buddy play dates, it's kind of cute. Vvv Id listen to an audiobook of that, add a young obi wan. Newly knighted Jedi, Obi Wan, and republic general Tarkin with some clone trooper deadmeats chasing Dooku around a spooky castle with secret passages and armor displays that feel like they're watching you.
