The MOST DEADLY Weapons Of Cad Bane

Cad Bane is one of the greatest Bounty Hunters of all time, owing largely to his skill but also to his use of obscure and deadly weaponry. During his early years, Cad Bane had worked with and was mentored by the father of Boba, Jango Fett. From him, he learned about the rare and dangerous weaponry used by the Mandalorians that was often used to combat force-sensitives. If you wanted to be the best of the best, skill could only get you so far and Cad Bane knew this. Today we will be exploring some of the weapons Cad Bane had in both canon and legends, discussing how they worked and what made them so deadly.
But before we start I’d just like to say a big thank you for 200,000 subscribers over on my main channel. Ill probably only be uploading shorts and 1-2 minute videos over on Vader’s Fortress due to algorithm reasons but ill be posting longer content over on this channel, so make sure to subscribe if you haven't already.
Anyway back to the video. First of all, let's start with a legends weapon that was extremely deadly against Jedi. And I do apoligise for the lack of images, unfortunately there was never an official image of this super deadly and unique weapon. I’ve mentioned a few times over on VF how in actuality, regular guns or slugthrowers as they were known in Star Wars were highly effective against Jedi. Instead of being deflected like a blaster bolt, a slug would melt upon contact with a lightsaber, causing supersonic molten metal to fly into the face of the Jedi.
Of course, Cad Bane knew this and utlised skugthrowers for this very reason just like other bounty hunters such as Aura sing.. However, Cad Bane took this a step further. Especially during his early career, he utlised slugs made of pure cortosis. For those of you unfamiliar with this metal, it could vbe woven into armour to make an alloy that was almost completely resistant to lightsaber strikes. However, pure cortosis was even more unique and upon contact with a lightsaber would completely short out the blade for several hours.
Cad Bane had the absolutely ingenious idea of make bullets out of cortosis. Not only would the bullet melt and spray the Jedi with moltern metal, it would cause the lightsaber blade to extinguish, allowing Cad Bane to easily finish them off. However, the Cortosis shot as it was known did have its drawbacks. Pure cortosis was very expensive and also wrecked the barrel of the slugthrower, eventually leading to Bane abandoning this weapon.
One of the reasons he probably gave up his cortosis shot slugthrower was due to the effectivness of his modified LL-30 blaster pistols, or as Bane called them, his persuaders. Like Jango Fett’s pistols, these were made with a special alloy that dissipated heat very quickly, preventing them from overheating. This allowed for a very high rate of fire which would overwhelm the defences of most Jedi, making them the perfect weapons for a bounty hunter like Cad Bane.
Next up we have his breathing tubes. And these arent exactly deadly but they are extremely useful in countering the force abilities of Sith Lords so I thought they deserved a mention. Many assume that Cad Bane requires these as he is an alien species, requiring the appatatus to breathe in an oxygen rich atmosphere much like Plo Koon. However, this is not the case. Cad Bane was a Duro, an ancient species distantly related to the neimoidians who were very much capable of breathing in oxygen rich atmospheres. However, like most of his equipment, the breathing tubes were specifically designed to help him defeat force sensitives. Not only could they help him breath in hostile environments, they provided him with oxygen even if he was force choked, an especially useful weapon for a bounty hunter that spent a lot of time working for Sith Lords with the nasty habit of force choking those they were displeased with.

[@adambomb2236]

I always thought that the duel between him and boba fett did happen in canon, just not on screen, because that's how fett's helmet was dented and bane gets a metal plate on his head

[@KenwrathKDK]

In BOBF you're proven right

[@nofacedgoldfish6216]

The unfinished fight in The Clone Wars is still canon, but he never died. In The Bad Batch(as well as Book of Boba Fett's finale), you can see a metal plating on his forehead from where he was shot by young Boba. So glad they got their rematch.

Great video, and I have a question for you. Cad Bane vs General Grievous, who wins? My money is on the General.

[@VadersFortress2]

Hmmm, I'd have to say Bane. But it depends which version of Grievous...

My favorite character in all of the star wars but really love the Yuuzhan Vong so much then the force itself....

[@msmailey2]

First off, great content! Absolutely love it! As for the video, I don't understand how the breathing tubes work. Couldn't the force user just widen the "clamp" and squish the neck and hoses together? Or is there a reference I don't know about that could explain it?

[@VadersFortress2]

Sadly it's never been explained. If I was to guess, I'd say it provided oxygen directly into his lungs although I have absolutely no idea lol

[@bluefalcon6356]

Usually when people force choke they force choke. So even a split second of realization that they actually need to close the tubes as well would grant him a window of opportunity after they initially try the neck. That's just my theory tho. Could directly put oxygen into the lungs
