Vader ripped Hans blaster right out of his hand.Precog. If they can tell where a blaster bolt will be they can tell where Russel will be and already be cutting him in half when he gets there.
There are limitations to how quickly they can react. Russell's speed seems greater than their greatest feats of reaction.
Would have replied but Neme already covered it nicely.
'sides glowing things, basing things solely off visuals is faulty especially when comparing to another fictions. To each style their own, same reason in some fictions we can't see bullets in mid-air but can in others. TB vamps are hitting supersonic at best.
Originally posted by BloodRainTB vamps have dodged bullets which are faster than lasers. They aren't faster than Russell's movements. Even if he glowed we wouldn't be able to decipher his movements.

Latter part is you comparing a fictions portrayal of speed, to which I point back to bullets being shown in some media but not in others.
Maryann and Eric (for him barely) only did so, yet both can be attributed to aim-dodging and showed sub-bullet speed in reacting to it. Then again we have several vamps routinely tagged with bullets, arrows and net-guns. They're supersonic at the very best.
>Can't find the Mach 1 Jango Fett blaster speed calc, but the ones from AotC and RotS had them in the battlefield part covering hundreds of meters in split seconds. Easily supersonic.

Nope. We can see them travel unlike vampires. Not even close.

Your argument to seeing blasters go hundreds of meters in split seconds is a nah, just cause you dont want it?
The Battle of Geonosis; we clearly see blasters bolts covering the area in split seconds.
Jango Fett's bolts travelled about 40 ft in a single frame (just got the frames for it).
Both are giving supersonic figures. If you want to complain how bolts wider, far longer and a great magnitude brighter than a bullet can bee seen where a bullet can't, knock yourself out.
But okay lets play the 'use lower feats only' game: Arrows tag vampires. Net-guns tag vampires. Humans with stakes tag vampires.
I don't trust any Star Wars OBD calc as a rule, to be blunt.
They look for only the demonstrations of blaster speed that support their case, rather than the ones that show them as sub-sonic.

12 seconds in.
The Jango one I checked is definitely over 10m in 1 frame. In you're one they're going around 100ft(ish?) in 0.12s.. only 3/4 supersonic, though whats the issue with these blasters being near-sonic and Jango's or the droids' ones being base supersonic?
Its the over Ma150 ones some claim that I'd agree with you.
Originally posted by BloodRainWe see vampires fly off screen out of the area unable to keep up. We see them run off in the distance far faster as well. Bullets are faster.
Mary was with the gun pointed at her (aim dodging rank, still impressive) and Eric ended up moving as fast as the running wolf.Your argument to seeing blasters go hundreds of meters in split seconds is a nah, just cause you dont want it?

I cited the most powerful Jedi without any distractions being tagged against a single opponent. Russell is far faster, stronger, and ruthless enough to kill them before precog says duck.
