Star Wars Galaxies had so much potential.

It's a shame about Phasma. Great look, great actress in the armour. Utter lack of anything resembling a character to go with it.
and then cut by Disney, and later remade by Disney through TCW and MandoSo, pretty much Boba Fett until the EU got ahold of him
Edit: beat to it by Necrozius
To be fair, Boba Fett was just a goon initially. It was after the fact that he became a big deal. Phasma charted the exact opposite course. Sold as a big deal, turned out to be nothing of the sort.So, pretty much Boba Fett until the EU got ahold of him

The Clone Wars, acronym for the cartoon
Yes, and was in the show.Ah, I didnt know he was in that - wasn't he a little boy at that time?
....he got hit in the back and flew screaming into the Sarlacc pit.
Considering Droids came out a good two years after Jedi...Boba Fett was given a pretty significant build up - his animated introduction in the Holiday special (the only reason anyone sought that out), along with his inclusion and build-up in the Drids cartoon, and even in the films themselves - he was the only Bounty Hunter Vader personally spoke to, everyone knew his name ("Boba Fett? Boba Fett? Where?), and had a significant stage presence both in Empire and the beginning of RoTJ until....he got hit in the back and flew screaming into the Sarlacc pit. Even before RoTJ came out, the character was a fan favourite, and he had one of the most popular toys.
Ha, SW in a nutshell.Star Wars, thy name is retcon.

Vader spoke to Fett to tell him that he'd get paid off if Solo died. The no disintegration lone was to the group. That's it,thats Fett's dialog. He's on screen for maybe 3 minutes.
If you watch Empire and Jedi with the director commentary, Lixas freely admits he had nonidea how popular Biba Fett was. Which was down to the Holiday Special and a cool action figure. The character was written as just a no name bounty hunter. That toy was why everyone knew the name Boba Fett. I'm 95% sure he doesn't even get named on screen until just before he dies stupidly. Which was down to Lucas not realising how iconic the character had become.
And don't get me started on the armour thing. Fett wasn't even a Mandalorian originally. He wore Mandalorian Supercommando armour, but was just a bounty hunter originally.

Jeez that's dark.
Morons having a nerd fight on the net? With other words, nothing new.So... I'm seeing a lot of complaints about how all the blaster fire always hits the beskar when there are gaps between the plates. Are these the same people complaining about how the Skywalkers are the chosen ones, and why? And how the force works? Because, I'm sure there's a reason for why the beskar takes all of the incoming bolts that could be worse that midi-clorians...
Why not just leave some things to dramatic license? Because it could always be worse...
My own head canon there is that the electronics on the inside is not just dampeners, but helps by slightly attracts blaster bolts to the Beskar (or repel it from the gaps) as it can take the hit.
The compound inside is called Pluribus Luminous Originus Tractorimus...
So... I'm seeing a lot of complaints about how all the blaster fire always hits the beskar when there are gaps between the plates.
That’s also a little known spell in the Wizarding World.
It's weird how people make stormtroopers not hitting main characters an issue when it comes to Star Wars when you see the same thing in almost every American action movie ever. Especially as Star Wars even gives stormtroopers some time to shine, taking Leia's ship in Star Wars and winning the battle on Hoth.
My personal canon is that the blaster bolts miss the gaps because the likelihood of hitting those gaps is much, much smaller than hitting the plates.
My personal canon is EWOKS!!
I still think Troops should be canon.Stormtroopers are nasty to deal with as long as you aren’t the hero. I submit the case of Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru.
