Well, you don't simply desintegrate a target, that would be stupid in evey way. You still have to bring proof of the targets death. Boba probably still had something, but shooting first and thinking about the proof later will leave you without payment in this case.

[@Engine33Truck]

Realistically I feel like very common blasters would be excellent for bounty hunters. Reason being the commonality would make parts and such very easily and cheaply sourced. Which would be important for a bounty hunter who’s out in the field for an extended period. The bounty hunter might not have access to an arms dealer to replace his primary or secondary weapon if it gets lost, damaged, or destroyed.

[@jaxonmoore372]

Not to mention a very accessible supply of fuel/power for these common blasters

[@bjorndanielsen4680]

A common blaster would also have a ton of modification potential.

[@squilliamfancyson1080]

But when you're a #1 hunter like Jango, Cad, or Boba you probably have enough resources to make the fancy stuff worth it.

[@guibin]

I like something like Cassian Andor's blaster. Can be configured into an assault rifle or sniper rifle as needed, or just kept as a pistol for ease of carry and concealment.

[@Adam-oh3vu]

@The Polite Scumbag pretty much

[@hansyolo8277]

[@ABadassDragon]

A good sniper rifle, preferably with metal bullets instead of plasma, or a dc15a. Powerfull, long range, precise. No need to get closer than neceserry, no need to empty an entire clip, when one well placed shot could do the job

[@Canoby]

One shot one kill!

[@thetravelerformallyknowasw7912]

Star wars weapons use clips? Not power cells or gas mags?

[@ABadassDragon]

@@thetravelerformallyknowasw7912 its just a saying, but yes, they use gas mags (plasma weapons, aka most sw weapons do). The sentiment is still the same, it still uses ammo either way and if you can conserve it, why not

[@Engine33Truck]

So a slug thrower, like the Tusken Raiders used. Lightsabers can’t deflect metal bullets.

[@Canoby]

@@Engine33Truck Who really is to say given that lightsabers are a completely fictional technology, but if that wasn't the case I'd love to see that episode of Galactic Mythbusters

[@ronnoe6708]

I like the S-5 heavy blaster pistol used by the security forces on Naboo. Aside from being a blaster piston it has a dart launcher under the barrel. This launcher can fire a couple of different kinds of darts but can also fire a grappling hook with a liquid cable (to get to those hard to reach places). I think that kind of versatility would be something any bounty hunter would love to have in a weapon.

[@macekreislahomes1690]

Agreed. It's also a good swiss army style blaster for anyone needing as much versitily in a pistol.

[@MrTwistedLizard]

Slugthrower shotgun. Easy to maintain, portable, practical, and efficient We have lasers, phasers, lethal light sticks, poison darts, missiles, flamethrowers, and magical space bullshit but nothing will ever beat the go to classic of properly applied buckshot dispensers Good for anything between wiping out a squad of security agents to instant overwhelming a Space Wizards defense in a couple blasts.

[@sylphid1431]

More like a single blast.

[@peabrain6872]

the vanguard, it even makes you run faster

[@KirbyBWebb]

Except for the Mandolorian armor. BUT Buckshot does sound interesting.

[@UnThralls]

What happened to Jango's Westar-34 blaster pistols anyways? I figured that Boba would have it on him during the events of the Mandalorian but it just seemed like it was gone.

[@SalinaMoonfall]

We see Boba use them early in his bounty hunter career in clone wars, but I get the feeling he moved on from them by the time of the OG trilogy and Mandalorian. Basically, he started his career trying to emulate his father, before finding his own way and preferences for weapons.

[@Greasiola]

The ones that Boba have during the Clone Wars aren't Jango's. The reason Jango only has one on Geonosis is because he lost one on Kamino. These blasters were physically modified by Jango to make them as light as possible, so there's no way that someone could have the exact same pair as he did.

[@bobbymguire833]

@@Greasiola The other also gets cut in half by Windu on Geonosis. So Jango's pair are effectively gone forever.

[@Greasiola]

@@bobbymguire833 Exactly. Just another one of the many small, yet weird plot holes they’ll likely never explain

[@NathanChun-y6u]

Westar-34 were rare in the galaxy. They were replace by the Westar-35 and Galaar-15. Boba had his own custom pair which he used to defeat his mentor Cad Bane before switching to an EE-3 carbine

[@lerneanlion]

When I saw Jango Fett kept firing at Mace Windu before he will lose his head along with Alan was saying that the Mandalorians use the flamethrowers to create the distance between themselves and the Jedi, why don't he use the flamethrower to force Mace Windu to stay away from him?

[@zt2019]

I think he was saving the flamethrower, as he didn’t anticipate his jet pack not working which ultimately cost him his life. I doubt he’d want to use all his tricks straight away fighting someone as formidable as mace

[@Talon1124]

Or maybe because Plot demanded he die so he fought very un-Fett like instead using a hand blaster like any ordinary goon instead of his REPERTOIRE of OPTIONS specific for dealing with Jedi - as we seen him use a very effective style against Obi Won on planet Kamino Why didnt Fett do/use XYZ? same reason ultra precise stormtroopers ALWAYS miss the main characters - PLOT demands it which is the worst, lamest reason and an insult to us fans

[@nickvinsable3798]

On the surface, it looks like a cortosis covered lightsaber hilt with claws to disarm opponents in CQC (Close-Quarters-Combat). But, in-reality, its used as a laser pointer to designate targets for the bounty hunter’s personal ship to autopilot to & attack… The 3rd of those previously mentioned hilts has a vibro-blade attached, an actual vibro-sword, with a special coating to withstand lightsabers & deflect both blaster bolts & slug thrower slugs…

[@lukebroadhead8045]

Westar 34s are just classics. They make jango even more unique.

[@sylphid1431]

And now we know how a Gaderffi is canonically made, and I think it’s pretty interesting.

[@an-animal-lover]

That was my favorite part of that episode

[@miqvPL]

some kind of portable railgun or a slugthrower sniper rifle would be great for star wars universe since portable deflector shields aren't a thing. Should work well against beskar as well as the jedi since they can't vaporize the bullet with their lightsabers quickly enough to make it harmless while it should be too fast to be stopped via Force. And I'm talking a railgun that can blow up a 30 cm wide hole in you so no light wounds that the target can get away with

[@BossDosTV]

In EU the Mandalorians used quite a lot solid projectile weapons, because Jedi did tend to block them with their lightsabers, which transformed the solid projectile into molten, fucking hot liquid metal showering said jedi. Which seems cruel,.. but damn effective.

My weapon of choice would definitely be the DL-44, best armor piercing blaster pistol that is only truly rivaled by the A280 series

[@satchelgizmo5933]

If I were a bounty hunter/mercenary in the Star Wars universe, I'd essentially want a modified Clone Commando set-up. I'd make adjustments to the Katarn-Class armor, use the DC-17m as my primary weapon, carry the DC-17m attachments (if necessary), and replace the DC-15s blaster pistol with the DC-17 heavy blaster pistol for my sidearm. With retractable vibro-blades hidden in the knuckle plates and the option to support a jet-pack, it's a more than capable and adaptable load-out to bring 'em in alive or dead/fight another man's war (for the right price).

[@minicle426]

Swtor gives us Bounty Hunters the Carbonite spray.

[@whichDude]

I would say the grapple laso thing simply because on every TV or movie appearance it never misses. 100% hit rate. It either completely ensnares the target or momentarily slows them causing them to have to cut it off. Just have something else ready to shoot them when they are open.

[@buck342443]

Here's my own list: GRS-1 Snare Rifle, it's the perfect weapon for bringing in your bounty alive. CC-V 'Legion' Cryo Projector, with this gun you can freeze your bounties just like Mister Freeze, what's not to love? Deck Sweeper Stunning Blaster, a bit bulky perhaps but a great weapon if you need to bring in multiple bounties alive. The Farkiller, It's a lightsaber sniper rifle need I say more? Ezra's Lightsaber Blaster, the saber could've used a few teaks to make the stun blasts more effective but it's still it's a good weapon with decent versatility. Cal Kestis, Lightsaber, not use why more Jedi or Sith didn't use split sabers given how useful they can be. DC-17m, it's a carbine, sniper rifle, and grenade launcher all rolled into one, you can't beat that!

I never understood why force users always gravitate towards lightsabers. There's plenty of other weapons that could be enhanced by the force. ESB Luke for example still carries a blaster pistol. I think with a bit of training blaster bolts guided by the force would be devastating. You could shoot around corners. Use your imagination.

[@peabrain6872]

Ezra from Rebels had a blaster built into his lightsaber.

[@judegutierrez1573]

I thought they where called gahffi sticks?

[@pirobot668beta]

If I was hunting? High rate of fire 'slug-gun' and/or shotgun for close to medium ranges. Sniper rifle for distance work. Bullets might have a hard time against some armor, but for the most part bounty-hunter targets don't go about in clanky-suits. Any kind of energy weapon is too apparently too easily deflected or detected, so kinetic weapons would seem to be the way to go for a hunter. Compressed air, coiled springs, dead-falls...lots of ways to strike that don't show up on energy-scan!

[@AMoistEggroll]

For long ranges, a percussive pulse cannon. For close range, a scattergun. For all-around use, a concussion rifle with concussion grenade launcher. Or a micro grenade launcher.

[@ShadowJedi527]

Let's face it, a lightsaber is far more civilized than blasters.

[@muhammadirfanataulawal7630]

As advanced as Star Wars can get, I'm absolutely intrigued that they didn't have deadly, terrifying weapon like thermobaric warhead to deal against a group of Jedi or Empire soldiers. Imagine using Russian TOS-1A thermobaric MLRS against a group of Jedi and troopers, basically incinerating and also sucking air out of their lungs and intestine cavity at the same time.

[@REDcladSPECTER]

It would probably hard to find one but a DC-17m would be a great weapon for a bounty hunter. The modular system means that depending on the situation you have either a single fire high powered grenade launcher, a magazine fed high powered sniper, or a magazine fed high powered automatic blaster. Granted the magazine designs make sustained fire less of an option compared to other weapons but the power and versatility would be well worth it if you ask me.

[@ellnats]

id go with the solo pistol as my main weapon, i prefer smaller guns, but maybe if i could have a bowcaster pistol, that'd be cool, although an alternative would be the K-19 Bryar Pistol, it may be big, but it packs one heck of a blast

[@Donkeyearsa]

There are a few anti Jeti weapons that a bounty hunter can used. Flamethrower of course. A large caliber machine Scatter gun like a 6 gage High caliber slug throwing rifle with bullets that has a outer shell that is designed to burn away in a light saber to let the core bullet pass through the light saber to hit the jeti.

[@yagdtigercommander]

even droid poppers might handy in some situation if your bounty as their own personal platoon or legion of battle droids protecting them. But honestly I think some of best weapons are non lethal that are meant to stun or incapacitate your bounty as in many cases your employer prefers your bounty to be alive than dead. So having the option of both lethal and non lethal weapons will just had to the versatility of bounty hunters arsenal. because depending on what the employer wants you do for the contract they hired you on to do you need to be prepared and adaptable. So its always important for a bounty hunter before they do the job or mission to ask their employer do they want the target bounty dead or alive. Or is the pay worth more if they are dead or alive. Because no sense in killing a bounty that is going to be worth more money to you alive than dead in the long run lol.

[@cammando2363]

Kind surprised the cycler rifle isn’t on the list. Good against Jedi and regular people alike. Often unseen. And a weapon that was just as brutal and durable as it’s weilder.

[@lordemperoryodertthewhite7514]

bossk in bf1 was so op with that launcher

[@the_gdog_2374]

In my mind, a slug thrower or guns would make very good bounty hunting weapons it’s stated that laser weapons are much more lethal than weapons using chemical combustion mainly because it evaporates liquid in a creatures body killing through very rapid dehydration basically, so under that long logic if you were to shoot somebody in the shoulder with a normal slug throw or round versus a laser round you’re less likely to evaporate all the liquid and that things brain, so if you adopt me and I had to go bounty hunting give me a pair of slug thrower pistols a cowboy hat and a very cool set a background music and I’ll be good

[@matthewanderson9754]

I've a question, does force push move the air as well?... cause if it does flamethrowers are useless against jedi?...

[@yunofun]

Only useless if they are able to push the air enough to divert the flame. Additionally you would have to push a large bubble of air, if only what was in front of your palm got pushed you would have to be very close or the flame would simply envelope it. I would see this as both the user and target getting hit, the bounty hunter generally wearing non-melty armor would come out ahead of the jedi who is typically wearing fairly flamable clothing.
