Force choke, duhhhh.

force shield, force choke, guided lightsaber toss, force pull.

Vader can use force powers from a mile away? lol, prove it.

vader is a Close combat melee fighter whose only true ranged attack is a saber throw that can be easily dodged.
Not true.

Iron Man does win in his classic armor. I don't think it's necissarily a stomp. Vader is extremely proficient with Force TK. That saber throw you are referring to can be guided through Vader's command. I do think Vader might be a bit mismatched here though.

EMP blast and Vader loses his saber and can't breath any longer?
Doubtful. That would give Iron Man to Vader on a silver platter; defenseless. Vader has crushed Imperial Walkers with the Force.

So says Galen Marek's father.

proof the force can be used from a mile away? ok:

notice how small that ship looks

notice how big the ship is compared to him.

the ship is supposed to be .99 mi long and over half a mile wide.
the distance between him and the ship in the first video has to be around a mile or more.

in theory that would work. but realistically, no.

a force user that had truely realized that "size matters not" could do it i think tho.


It wouldn't even work in theory.

and why not? a force user with sufficient realization could crush an entire solar system at once

GTFO! we're using video game Vader? Ok, he stomps the shit out of classic Iron Man. Video game Jedi can take out Superman.

Have you played The Force Unleashed? I assure you Vader isn't powerful enough to "stomp the shit" out of any modern version of Iron Man.

the thread is classic red and gold

Vader has tanked force lightning, so I'm not sure that an EMP would have much more of an effect..

Rockets and bullets would be easily deflected via TK. Lasers could be blocked via a force, force-field, or his lightsaber. Also keep in mind that Vader's bare suit was durable enough to block Han's blaster bolts AND was only minimally damaged when Luke smacked him in the arm with his lightsaber (ESB.)

he can always put up a force shield. pre-cog ftw.
👆

Any fight where Boba Fett stands a chance or holds his own against the likes of Darth Vader is pure PIS. Vader is extremely proficient in Force TK and a master lightsaber combatant. No amount of blaster fire, rockets, flight, etc. is going to do any good. Don't even get me started on Fett holding his own with Vader in lightsaber combat.

What I want to know is if Darth Vader could block a repulsor ray.
Most likely, yes. Not only could he deflect them with his lightsaber, he could likely block them them with his hands.

can the light saber damage the armor ?
It'd likely go through it without any problems seeing what Adamantium had done to it.

Answer me this, do you think Vader's armor was more durable?
Against? Pure brute concussive force, projectiles, explosives, and energy based attacks? Not even close. Against lightsaber attacks? Yes. Vader seemingly took a baseball bat swing from a lightsaber wielding Luke Skywalker without any major damage.

Has the force lightning ever shut off tech as a direct or collateral damage?

then, why when i asked for proof that Vader can use force powers from a mile away, you presented to me, evidence from a video game? 😬

Modern meaning any suit that is post-Tin Man armor. 😉

I haven't seen anything to the effect of him using anything from a mile distance. What many refer to is him chocking General Veers by seeing him on a television screen. They imply that Veers was on a seperate ship. He's on the Executor along with Vader. That is an impressive feat, however.

Couldn't find it. Those armors in the force field section are way more advanced (Silver Centurion, Pentagon, Extremis, etc).

We're using this one:
