Says that as if A “whole episode” is such a long time to get used to brand new legs lmao.

He doesnt just need to get used to walking on them, but actually fighting with them. That seems to have been his first fight in them.

Heck he seemed pretty stiff (mobility wise) that whole episode. Certainly not on the mobility level he was at fighting Sidious 2 episodes later.

So your evidence is "he seemed pretty stiff." Which particular scene/s?

You're yet to explain how his robotic legs relate to a small Anooba matching/exceeding Maul's force-enhanced upper-body strength for over thirty seconds, lmao.

Its pretty good supporting evidence to an already established rule in Star Wars canon (looks to Vader), yes.

Because he wasnt in great shape at the time. I dont get whats so hard to grasp.

At first I thought you guys were just purposefully trolling Maul fans.

Now im starting to think this is actually a serious argument from you against Maul erm

So a guy who is encumbered in a life sized suit is comparable to robotic legs.

laughing out loud

Yes its half his damn body!

But the principle of getting used to new cybernetic parts is the same and established in canon.

Well you made a seriously lopsided comparison. A life sized suit to robotic legs is lulz worthy.

100 percent to 50 percent is a 2:1 ratio albeit a horrendous comparison.

I was, and still kinda am. But it doesn't mean this isn't a bad showing. You're the one who chose to respond to an obvious sarcastic comment, and of course I'm going to reply back.

The half of his body irrelevant to the topic at hand. His legs have nothing to do with this, lmao. This is Erkan tier drivel.

I mean, by the time Maul confronted the Hutts(and Embo's 'dog'), he and Deathwatch had already overtaken Black Sun and the Pykes.

So while all of this did occur within the same episode, there was clearly a significant time-lapse. IOW, Maul didn't wake up with new legs and begin fighting the bounty hunters 10mins later -- he should've had more than enough time to acclimate to his new prosthetics.

The Pykes just gave up right away. Maul hardly did any fighting against Black Sun. Savage was doing the assassinations and Deathwatch fighting the battles.

How much time do you need anyway to be back to peak performance? I know some time passed in that episode. All I am arguing is we as sensible analysts on the matter should allow him any low showings for that first episode at least.

We dont see Maul do any kind of impressive fighting at all that entire episode.

We didn't see Maul do excessive acrobatics against weak enemies, ergo he was having trouble with his legs. What a poor line of thought.

So you're of the opinion that Maul had to engage in rigorous physical combat in order to acclimate to his Mandalorian legs?

I would disagree there. Especially since they weren't the first set of prosthetics Maul had. In fact, they appeared far less clunky/complicated than his previous legs, and certainly were not implied to be inhibiting his movements at any point in time. /shrug
