Someone else already mentioned Cortosis metal being an alloy resistant to light sabers. But I'll go one further. Cortosis was actually able to short out the blade of a lightsaber when coming into contact with the blade. In the darth krayt time period, the empire wasnt replaced by the first order and they had empire knights which were basically jedi who would use the dark side at times. Like they were encouraged to stay in balance and not fall too far to either side. Anyways, the empire knights wore cortosis weave gauntlets that covered their off hands up to the elbow and they would use them to block lightsaber attacks shorting out the blade and leaving the opposing sith or jedi near defenseless.

There is also mention of Cortosis in one of Timothy Zhan's Thrawn trilogy books. (the newer cannon ones) and without spoiling it also is shown to stop any energy weapon except a constant stream which can get through. I don't recall the title and I don't really feel like skimming through the books to find out which one it is but if I remember correctly most of these scenes occur as flashbacks for Thrawn (and maybe Vader?)

Lightsabers can be blocked by a variety of materials Amphistaff - "Snake skin" that resists Cortosis Ore - Corrosive/Toxic material used mainly for battle droids Felucian Skullblade - Creature bones resistance to lightsabers. Mandalorian Iron (Beskar) - Well Beskar Neuranium - Super dense material, Palpatine lightsaber constructed in this, can block lightsabers (somewhat) Orbalisk - Darkside creature skin, essentially "leather" armor resistant to Lightsabers but not elecriticty. Phrik - This is what electrostaffs are made out of and the Dark Troopers armor Songsteel - Super light shining material, blocks lightsabers. Ultrachrome - Superconductive material used during Great Sith Wars, can temporarily block lightsabers.

If you look up the original design for the Neimoidians you can see that the battle droids were designed to look like them - skinny limbs and long heads. When the decision was taken to not do the Neimoidians in CGI their look was redesigned so they could be played by actors in costumes and they no longer looked similar to their droids. Subsequently the idea of the BDs resembling their creators was resurrected with the similar looking Geonosians in Ep 2 - their look bears a resemblance to the original skinny Neimoidian concepts.

Not too sure the actual capabilities of a force user when it comes to speed of objects, but blaster fire always seemed slower to me, than the ballistic weapons. Not by *too* much, but prolly enough to make a difference? Though I'm also unsure how many a normal force user could actually stop if its being unloaded as full-automatic fire, compared to deflecting blaster fire repeatedly with their lightsaber least. But you're prolly right, its probably possible.

There was absolutely NO material completely impervious to Lightsabers. different materials had different levels of resistance. I think Cortosis was the Best, as it would short the saber and turn off the blade. But it was stupid rare, and even it didnt last indefinitely. Even regular Durasteel had a lightsaber resistance. Which is why Qui-gon had trouble cutting through the blast doors. I seriously dislike how the Mandalorian series makes it seem like Beskar makes one immune to a lightsaber, as that wasnt the case. They HINTED at it being able to be overcome with the spear. But how many blows did Djinn take on his gauntlets from the Dark Saber (Which is unusually strong for a lightsaber) and had 0 ill effects?

Cortosis ore stops lightsabers cold. Too bad it's crap against everything else. And no, no, no the service corps are not cool. They basically got cheated. They got grabbed from their families, had their entire childhoods swept away into training only to be discarded and used as the equivalent of laborers. If it wasn't for their indoctrination, they might have risen up to rebel against their fate, and I can easily imagine the early Sith having come out of such a thing.

Pretty sure within Star Wars canon, the Jedi didn't kidnap any children, and almost exclusively it was only with parents' permission to take them to the Jedi Temple to become Jedi. Given the option to still help the Republic & Jedi Order over going back to a life you've never known sounds a lot more feasible to me, and easier than learning to become a farmer, or whatever on whatever planet you were born on. As for the early Sith...I think in like super early Legends Canon they were basically a splinter-group, deciding to use their powers and skill for themselves, and thus caused the Force Wars, but this like super early timeline stuff, and long before Service Corps would exist, as for actual Sith? They were a race of aliens from Korriban, where many of the most powerful of Sith were buried. Eventually some Jedi end up on the planet to memory, see the Sith ways, and decide that sounds good, and eventually that lead to the Sith we know now. 0 clue how Disney/Modern Canon tells it, but I don't think the Sith come from anything the Jedi Order specifically did. Could be wrong. But I don't know, to me personally Service Corps definitely sounds better than being kicked out to the curb, or outright leaving the JO entirely to me. Sure the Order has faults, but it is probably a better life than the homeworld & life I never knew and thus have no attachment to, least that's how I imagine it for most. Don't really see what's there to really rebel against. Is it amazing? No, but, better than nothing.

@@theschwabmob8363 The Jedi didn't really give the kids' parents much of a choice. There was even one comic story starring Mace about it, but it showed that Mace was a good guy deep down and he let the parents have the kid. Standard procedure though is to scare the parents into giving the kids up by telling them stories about how they can turn into monsters. Classic Gaslight tactics cults use.

And I can see some maybe having some resentment towards it, that's pretty fair assumption.
