so...CW characters are ridiculously overpowered, but EU characters aren't? Please.
"It is said that the orbalisk's armor is so durable that lightsabers have a hard time penetrating it, making a wearer basically immune to lightsaber attacks."
So having a hard time is different then not being able to. And if shatterpoint can find weaknesses, then it shouldn't be too long before it gets through, if he doesn't shove it through his face first.
There is no weakness in Orbalisk armor, jeeze. If it's a weakness such as some acid that destroys it, thats not what Shatterpoint does. Shatterpoint locates fragile points of the body/structure. However I don't think that the Ban will feel anything under the Orbalisk armor if Mace attempts to punch him at some point. Maybe he can find a part of the Orbalisk Armor that is weakest , but that won't help much. Mace will have to push his lightsaber into the same spot many times. Bane is a skilled Dueler, he won't let that happen, comeone now, don't be silly.

And who do you know that there isn't no weakness in orbalisk armor, we are talking about maybe a crack at less the a milimeter, have you testet the armor for such a mistake ??? plus Bane has never dueled against a user with the combination of Form VII and Vaapad, who is using shatterpoints against him 😕.
Mace did to toe on toe with one of the greatest sith lords of all times nearly beated him, sorry but I cannot imagine mace not holding the line until he locates the shatterpoint.

Okay, there's no way you've read Shatterpoint.

Prove it...prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is absolutely NO weakness in orbalisks. And prove that its harder than durasteel.
First of all, the only weakness in the armor is like 1 mm crack, which not even a lightsaber can fit through, so it's no use too Mace.
Lightsaber cuts through durasteel, while orbalisk armor can block lightsaber. Added to that, at the time when Orbalisk armor was created, they probably didn't have cortiois ore, so it's no cortoise.
Okay allfg, I had enough of your retard argument of 'Coincidence that Anakin came when Sidious was disarmed?!? I THINK NOT'. It's not coincidence, it's cliche. I repeat cliche.
It happens in 3/4 of action movies. A villain is about to kill a hero, but suddenly a companion/sidekick kills the villain first. ZoMg, coincidence!! No, cliche. Star Wars is following the cliche. Sidious is a villain about to get killed by Mace, then the cliche comes, Anakin enters and chops off Mace's hand. Again CLICHE.
IT HAPPENS ON 3/4 OF ACTION MOVIES. STAR WARS IS ACTION MOVIES. George Lucas himself said that Mace owned Sidious. I'd rather believe him than your stupid theory.
Now please stop posting allfg, your reducing my IQ.

I like reducing IQ's, cause I am king of n00bs. Please quote it then. Cause IMO, it was cliche. How many times did you see, when some guys is pwning some guy, then the some guy comes and the beats the guy who was beating some guy? I saw it 50000000 times.

No. You showed Orbalisks are energy resistance.
A solid strike and a saber are two very different things. Care to explain next how Kevlar can stop a knife?

Lightsnake, it isn't an energy thing with orbalisks, as can be seen when they have the same effect against a lightsaber as they do against a giant bird's claws.

Out of story explanations in no way act as a valid explanation for why something inside the story happens.
Seriously, why are you even posting to me, go back to watching Doctor Who you wanabee Blaxican, debating isn't your thing.
