The kyber crystal is the heart of a lightsaber. A blaster operates like a real-world firearm, including a need for “ammunition.” Tibanna gas acts like a form of gunpowder and generates or propels a blaster bolt which behaves like a bullet. In-universe, lightsaber and blaster technologies are different. They only use them in EXTREME situations where a lightsaber is not readily available. They dont carry around grenades or blasters or rocket launchers. Not on other uncivilized weapons, as they view them. Did Jedi use blasters?Ī true Jedi relies only on his skill with the powerful ligthsaber. Most of the time, the Stormtroopers don’t actually die, they are simply incapacitated. When Stormtroopers are hit by blaster shots, they are flung backwards due to the kinetic force of the shots. The Stormtroopers die very easily because the plot demands that our intrepid heroes always succeed against the enemy. Blasters don’t use bullets, they use gas and energy cells. Technically ammunition needs to be a physical projectile, like a bullet or a rocket. It’d be more accurate to say that they have a fuel source and a power source, and those can indeed run out. Do Star Wars blasters have ammo?īlasters don’t use bullets, they use gas and energy cells. Many lasers actually consist of pulsed light, but the pulses flash by so quickly that the eye renders them as a continuous beam. A burst of laser light moves too fast from its source for our eyes to track as a unit.
