Luke Skywalker

Powers and abilities

"The Force is strong with him."Palpatine Listen(file info)

Though he received little training, Luke Skywalker became a wise and powerful JediMaster, even indirectly serving as the chosen one by bringing Darth Vader to thelight.His skills with both the Force and lightsaber were exceptional. Luke had the Forcepotential to become what his father was supposed to becomethe Force potential ofthe Chosen One.[131][132]Luke Skywalker was one of the most, if not themost, powerfulJedi to ever exist, as he demonstrated powers and abilities that sometimes surpassedeven Grand Master Yoda.

Lightsaber training

Luke Skywalker's use ofForm Vis probably as much instinctive as trained. On Bespin,Luke revealed that he was an extraordinarily gifted duelist after only one brief sessionwith Obi-Wan Kenobi and a short time of study with Yoda. After that fateful duel, Lukestudied some lightsaber skills from Kenobi's journal and greatly advanced his abilities.Without a Master, it was Luke's unparalleled aptitude which contributed in theimpossible advancement of his skills. Onboard the second Death Star, Luke mirroredDarth Vader's own Form V technique and responded with his own furious demonstration

of Form V's raw power. Observing swordsmen such as Palpatine might be astonished atsuch instantaneous learning in a lightsaber duel. Finally, Luke was able to duel Vaderon an even footing, and defeated the experienced Dark Lord. However, Luke's particularform of lightsaber combat may, in the end, be something entirely new, with traces ofForm III,Form IVand Form V mixed together with his own techniques. It is doubtful thatKenobi and Yoda had time to actually teach him the finer points of the combat Forms.Just like most other things about being a Jedi Knight, Luke probably had to figure outwhole new fighting styles to replace the ones lost during theGreat Jedi Purge.

It is also probable that theJensaaraiwould have passed on knowledge of the lightsaberforms of theOld Jedi Ordersince their founders were former Jedi Knights andPadawans; in addition, it was known that the discovery ofThe Jedi Path: A Manual forStudents of the Forcejust prior to the Yuuzhan Vong War was another source ofknowledge on the Forms. In particular, Luke took the time to write in the margins noting

how compassion was a key element to mastering Form V, indicating he had somedegree of knowledge of the finer points in the Form as of at least that point .[133]He alsomastered thestrong style, a form of lightsaber combat that resembles Djem So that isused in theNew Jedi Order.[65][76]It should be noted that Luke advanced more quicklythan any other known Jedi before him in lightsaber combat, being as powerful as Vaderafter receiving about one year of training.[source?]

Luke's abilities with a lightsaber and the Force allowed him to fight his way throughcountless Yuuzhan Vong warriors in theSacred Precinct. After defeating numerousYuuzhan Vong warriors in theCitadelLuke defeated more than fiveSlayers; while KypDurron, one of the most powerful Jedi of his time, could not best even the Slayers who

were exposed toAlpha Red. Afterward, Luke slewSupreme OverlordShimrraJamaane, who was stated to be the best warrior of the Yuuzhan Vong, despite justbeing injured by the poison of theScepter of Power.

Luke managed to defeat the rebornEmperorPalpatinein a lightsaber duel, slicing offhis hand withcho mai. It should be noted that Palpatine was one of the best swordsmenin lightsaber history, and even Yoda, Luke's own master, was unable to defeat him.Leia, who was watching the fight, could hardly see the movements of Luke and theEmperor, but she sensed waves of power generating from themdark from theEmperor, and light from Luke.[134]

Luke displayed his amazing dueling skills with dual blades during the Yuuzhan VongWar. Regardless of receiving formalJar'Kaitraining or not, Luke proved to be one of thebest dual blade duelists in his era.

Force powers

During theBattle of Yavin, Luke managed to destroy thefirst Death Starby lettingtheForcetell him when to fire his proton torpedoes, while traveling at very high speeds, andnot knowing the distance to the port, and having no previous knowledge of protontorpedoes and their abilities. One should note that Luke only had little training with theForce at this time.[7]

Like his father, Luke was an expertpilotwho used the Force to help him fly. Without anyguidance except a handbook left byObi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker successfully builthis first lightsaber, merely three years after he was first introduced to the Force, andundergoing formal training for less than a year. Only a short time after being given alightsaber by Obi-Wan, Luke was able to instinctively block several blaster bolts fired inrapid succession by a remote, despite his lack of prolonged formal training.

Luke safely landed himself,Isolder, and Isolder's fighter from a free fall drop from orbitwith the Force.[56]During theBattle of Dathomir, Luke flew theMillennium Falconsingle-handedly using only the Force, manipulating its controls and operating it with a skill thatnot even a full crew could manage.[56]

Luke was able to knock down a crippledAT-ATby pressing against it with the Force; healso absorbed the initial cannon blasts from the AT-AT, before deflecting the rest withhis lightsaber.

During theBlack Fleet Crisis, Luke used the Force to rebuild Darth Vader's old fortresson Coruscant.[78]In addition, Luke later used the Force to crush the rebuilt fortress ofDarth Vader to rubble, shattering the building piece by piece and throwing it into theoceans of Coruscant.[80]

During theBattle of Dantooineof the Yuuzhan Vong War, Luke tricked a vehicle's dovin

basals into colliding its ownblack holeagainst itself by using the Force to hold the voidagainst the pull of the dovin basals; then reversing the direction of his own pull, adding itto the pull of the dovin basals, so that the void would collide against the spine of thevehicle.[96]

In the battle between theSinging Mountain Clanand theNightsisters, Luke was almostfatally wounded by a Force attack byGethzerionand a deep fall, but regenerated in thespan of mere hours.[56]

Luke also destroyed a group of hot-wired battle droids just by waving his hand, subtlydisplacing their master servos and causing the self-destruction of the group of droids.This Force power was first manifested byJedi MasterArca Jethduring theGreat DroidRevolution. Even then, with proper instruction, it was a difficult power to master.However, this power apparently came naturally to Luke.

During the time when he was re-creating the Jedi Order and was searching for potentialcandidates, he walked on lava while still throbbing with the Force after defeating aFirewormliving in the lava just moments before. Luke's performance impressedGantoris so much that he decided to become Luke's apprentice.[64]

During theEye of Palpatineincident, Luke subconsciously used his Force powers toovercome a particularly vicious form of brainwashing.[11]

During theDeath Seed Plague, Luke used the Force to communicate with the sentientcrystalsTsils. It is important to remember that the more dissimilar the type of mind, the

more difficult it is to communicate with via the Force.

[75]

Toward the end of theSwarmWar, Luke used the Force to call all the Jedi acrossthe galaxytoOssusto make theannouncement of him taking on the role asGrand Masterof the Jedi Order, and to issuehis views about the role of the Order to his Jedi.[111]

While searching for the kidnapped Solo children, Luke used the Force to create anillusion over his face in order to disguise his identity.[77]After theBlack Fleet Crisis, withnewfound knowledge from theWhite Current, Luke removed theTeljkon Vagabondfromview using the Force; however he admitted that he did not know how long it would last.After the Black Fleet Crisis, Luke taught the combined White Current/the Force illusion

skill to his more experienced students, which would help shield the entire moon Yavin 4from intruders during the War. During the early days of theDark Nest Crisis, Luke usedthe Force to generate a lifelike copy of theJade Shadowto fool the attackingdartships.This usage of the Force was so extreme, Luke burnt out and his face was temporarilysunken and shriveled like Palpatine's.[103]A year later Luke applied the same trick on

theDR919a, by then Luke already mastered the technique and would no longer burnout. Right before the Battle of Fondor, Luke made Caedus "see" a fleet of ships,causing him to panic in front of his navy. Luke directed it right at Caedus in general, toshow him what he could do and also to scare Caedus.[120]

In the middle of a massive midday meal food fight at the Jedi Praxeum's mess hall,Luke instantly froze every morsel, drop and item, solid and liquid in midair as if trappedin time. After scolding the students (and his private amusement), he left and with a briefright hand gesture, released the food to fall to the floor for the students to clean up .[66]

In43.5 ABY, after spending time with theAing-TiiLuke was taught theFold space

ability which allowed him to teleport objects.

During theKuellercrisis, Luke prepared himself for death in such a way that he wouldbecome a Force ghost. Upon death, Luke was able to retain his consciousness in theNetherworld of the Force, and could henceforth manifest himself inspirit form.

During theBattle of Yuuzhan'tarLuke reached a state ofOneness. He was described asa maelstrom of luminous Force energy, against which there was no shelter. So calmand focused was he that his actions were not interrupted by any thought. Luke mergedwith the Force to such a degree that the Jedi Master did not seem to be there,physically or as an individual personality. Luke's control over his lightsaber blade was so

great that he was said to might as well have been wielding ten, or twenty lightsabersagainst the Vong.[110]The Solo twins were astounded seeing their uncle in such a state.

Luke used a powerful and unique ability of the Force related to his signature greenElectric Judgmentin the chamber of Shimrra Jamaane. This technique had beendescribed to look like "green sparks," which instantly killed theSlayer.

While battlingUnuThul, Luke was able to resist the combined Force power oftheColonyand triumph. When UnuThul attempted to Force Push the Grand Master, Lukerooted himself in the heart of the Force so strongly that it was said that he had becomethe very essence of the immovable object, and that not even the black hole at the center

of the galaxy could move him.

[111]

On only the trip back to Hapes after the duel, Luke used a Jedi healing trance to healmost of the damage caused by Lumiya.

During the Battle of Kashyyyk, Luke shut his presence down after being fired upon byJaina to make it seem like he died. Later while Ben was in the Embrace of Pain, Jacengave Ben back his ability to sense the Force temporarily and Ben felt the life force of his

Other abilities

Luke applied the very opposite ofDun Mchon board thesecond Death Starbyinfusing love into Darth Vader's heart through spoken words. The young Jedi wassuccessfulAnakin Skywalker ultimately redeemed himself and brought balance to theForce.

Like his father Luke was an expert pilot, being the person who was responsible fordestroying the first Death Star and managing to evadeDarth Vaderhimself (albeit withhelp from Han Solo). He also landed a crashing Imperial Star Destroyer, with almost noloss of life, on Coruscant by allowing the Force to guide him at theLiberator's controls,mirroring a similar achievement by his father toward the end of theClone Wars.

Lightsabers

Luke Skywalker's first lightsaber was hisfather'sformer weaponretrieved and given tohim byObi-Wan Kenobi.[7]During the first three years of his adventure, Luke upgradedthe lightsaber by placing a shard ofKaiburr crystalin the focusing crystal hold andadding other parts such as an activator board. He wielded it until it fell into the depths ofCloud Cityafter being defeated by Darth Vader.[8]Years later after recovering it from acloneof himself, Luke gave the weapon to Mara Jade.

After losing his father's lightsaber on Bespin, Luke wielded another lightsaber ofunknown origin[136][137][138][139]until, half a standard year after the duel, he used designsin Kenobi's home on Tatooine to builda new weaponsimilar to the late Jedi Master'ssaber, a practical weapon with a greenSynth-crystalblade. Inadvertently Kenobi andSkywalker kept the tradition of the apprentice modeling their lightsaber on theirmaster's. Luke used it during the rescue of his friends from Jabba the Hutt, his final duelwith Vader, and kept using it up to and during the Second Corellian Insurrection.

During his time under the cloneEmperor PalpatineLuke used a red-bladed lightsaber ofunknown origin. Soon after he discarded it and resumed use of his green one .[61]

During theNagai-Tof War, after losing an initial duel to Lumiya and herlightwhip, Lukeconstructed ashototo counter her unique weapon. Years later, he would use it again in

a duel against theDark Lady of the Sith.

Luke practiced and specialized inDjem So, his father'slightsaber combatstyle eventhough he was known to use anAtaruopening stance. He was also known to utilize twolightsabers in theJar'Kaistyle.[140]

Powers and abilities

Lightsaber training

"If you had spent as much time practicing your saber techniques as you do yourwit, you would rival Master Yoda as a swordsman.""I thought I already did.""Only in your mind, my very young apprentice."Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker[src]

Anakin Skywalker was trained by the Order's most promising Jedi Knight, Obi-WanKenobi. Through him, Skywalker would inherit a rich tradition oflightsabertraining.Skywalker's style featured elements of many masters, making him outstandingly

talented, even at a very young age.[104]

BothForm Vvariants became the favored fighting styles of Anakin Skywalker, as theiraggressive and strength-oriented fighting methods fit well with his arrogant,confrontational personality type. Due to his natural talent for lightsaber combat, headvanced quickly, an achievement which fed his ego, and he came to consider himselfa match forYoda. His specialty in the Shien form stood him in good stead during heatedengagements with blaster-wielding foes, such as theBattle of Geonosis, and hebecame a formidable lightsaber duelist.[105][106]

However, Skywalker eventually realized how much he still had to learn when he

confronted CountDooku. Initially utilizing a dual-bladed variant ofAtaruagainst theCount, Skywalker was forced to revert to his standard Form V practices when Dookudestroyed the extra blade.[106]His skill was enough for Anakin to stand toe-to-toe withDooku even longer than his Master did, actually impressed the masterful Count with hisskills, but he was forced to draw heavily on his Force-abilities to match Dooku's speedand precision, tiring quickly. Dooku's far more energy efficientMakashi stylewon theday, and Skywalker lost his arm when he opened himself up.[107]

As theClone Warprogressed, Skywalker spent the following years of the conflictdeveloping his skills in the many pitched battles. He began studying the Djem So variant

of Form V and used brute strength to overwhelm his opponents. Evidence of hisprowess included confrontations with the Dooku-trainedAsajj VentressorGrievous'IG-100 MagnaGuards, as well as numerous sparring matches withObi-Wan Kenobi.[108]Relying on both strength and agility, Skywalker proved able to adequately fend off orevade enemy attacks while immediately offering counters.[109]By the time of theBattle ofTeth, Skywalker was able to effectively hold his own against Dooku, as shown by theirconfrontation on Tatooine.[110]However, as the aggressive Form V encouragedpractitioners to actively attempt to dominate their foes, Skywalker drew more and moreon his anger and rage, sliding ever closer to theDark side of the Force.[108]Whenconfronting Dooku for the last time, Skywalker relied heavily on these emotions to fuelhis offense, demonstrating both overwhelming strength and bewildering speed as he

bashed through Dooku's precision defense and sliced off both of the Count's handsbefore brutally executing him.[111]Before his death, Dooku acknowledged Skywalker asthe finest Djem So stylist that he had ever seen.[108]

It also proved to Sidious that Skywalker was ready to become his apprentice.[80]

When Anakin Skywalker at long last embraced the dark side and was rechristenedDarth Vader, he maintained hisForm Vmastery, but utilized it in an even more brutalfashion, becoming a frightening opponent. However, his aggression became his fatalflaw, as he would become so controlled by it that it would give way to his rage. Thoughyounger, stronger, more athletic, and a master swordsman gifted with more raw Force

power than any other Force adept, he still lacked the experience, calm, and focus thathis former master possessed. Though Vader could, and would call on the dark side tooverpower his opponents, his mounting emotions distracted him, clouding his judgmentand preventing him from executing his form as well as Kenobi executed his. WhereasVader's strength lay in his offensive barrage, Kenobi's strength resided in his staunchdefense.[80]

Kenobi was regarded as the greatest master of the passive styleSoresuin the JediOrder, and his absolute dedication to it would prove vital to his victory. Vader, frustratedby his inability to break through this defense, began making mistakes and leavingopenings that he otherwise would have avoided had he remained focused and patient.

Kenobi, similar to hisduel with Grievous, would utilize his "wait them out" philosophy,relying entirely on the defensive and energy-conservative monves until the opponentbecame frustrated or fatigued, causing them to leave sloppy openings in their offensethat Kenobi could then exploit. In both cases, this resulted in the detachment of hisopponent's limbs. This became Vader's downfall.[80]

In his mechanical life-support suit, it was extremely difficult to engage in the energeticacrobatics of Ataru, an act that would quickly tire him, defeating the purpose of theaggressive style. Initially after gaining the suit, Vader was forced to rely on brutestrength to batter his opponents, utilizing a clumsy method that utilized stiffly executedvertical strikes to wear down his opponent, although he included elements of Soresu

and Ataru blade work in this, as witnessed by Jedi Master Roan Shryne when Vaderengaged Bol Chatak.[81]

However, Vader was able to overcome this limitation fairly quickly, developing a refinedversion of Djem So that continued to include Ataru and Soresu elements, but alsoadded Makashi[86]and Juyo[112]to the mix. Rather than attempting to fight through thebulky and heavy armor, Vader fought with it, utilizing the armor's weight and hispowerful prosthetics to provide his blows with incredible force, while relying on the mainarticulation points at the elbows and wrists rather for precision.[81]With this new form,Vader regained some of his old agility, and his blade work was brutally effective. Henever utilized anything less than a killing blow, and his swordplay demonstrated

crispness and unpredictability, notwithstanding the two-handed grip he favored. Eventhe most simplistic moves contained enough strength to nearly disarm hisopponents.[81][86]

Vader proved able to apply this personalized variant in many ways, sometimes opting to

fight one-handed, relying on precision and economy of movement, but thanks to theadded strength his prosthetics afforded him, he maintained a great deal of power.[81][98]He demonstrated this method against the likes ofOlee StarstoneandLuke Skywalker.However, when forced onto the defensive, Vader would fight with a two-handed grip,elbows pressed tightly to his sides with the blade held straight out in front of him,manipulating it deftly with his wrists only. This method proved effective for protecting historso, and his vulnerable control panel, but it left his limbs open. Vader applied thisdefensive style againstRoan Shryneduring the subjugation of Kashyyyk andObi-WanKenobiduring their final duel on board the Death Star I.[81][113]

While he utilized his customized style to great effect, even against multiple opponents,

Vader occasionally fell back on the clumsy and stiff vertical strikes that he used duringhis first weeks in the suit, unleashing a relentless, offensive barrage, as demonstratedduring his duel against Luke Skywalker on Bespin.[98]Vader apparently learned hislesson from his duel with Kenobi, learning how to control his emotions when in combatand finding a way to call upon calculated bursts of the dark side while not being blindedby emotions run amok, fighting with determination and relentlessness rather thanrage.[114]Vader alsotrainedfrequently with combat droids to keep his skills sharp, usingASP-19sby 3.5 ABY. Based on theASP-series droid, the ASP-19s were lightsabercombat droids programmed with the knowledge of a hundred swordmasters and adozen fighting styles, faster and stronger than an ordinary man. Vader defeated themtime and again, and thus ordered new, improved batches of them. As his finesse and

skill improved, Vader found that they became too easy to defeat, so much so that hetook to battling them in a two-on-one matches.[115]

However, despite his skill, Vader's method was not perfect. While a strong andrelentless fighter, Vader could be outpaced by more agile duelists. This flaw was

highlighted during his duel with Galen Marek on theDeath Star I. While Vaderunleashed a frenzy of bone-crushing blows, Marek blocked and evaded them, dancingaround Vader's defenses while suffering only light cuts from the Sith Lord's missedattacks. Ultimately, Vader was quite simply too slow to keep up with Marek, and wasbrought down, despite the numerous small wounds the Dark Lord inflicted upon him.[86]In order to compensate for his lack of speed, Vader would unleash vicious telekineticassaults on opponents capable of outpacing him, with unfortunate victims including

Roan Shryne on Kashyyyk and Luke Skywalker on Bespin, though even this tactic couldbe beaten, as proved when Marek responded in kind.[86]

Another duelist who proved able to stand against Vader was his own son, LukeSkywalker. In their initial engagements, Vader proved superior, though it still took some

effort to defeat Skywalker, who displayed a great deal of skill despite his minimal levelof training. However, onboard the second Death Star, Luke managed to defeat Vader.Mirroring Darth Vader's own Form V technique, Skywalker responded with his ownfurious demonstration of the style's raw power. Luke proved able to meet Vaderstrength-to-strength, his marked increase in skill and sudden display of aggressiontoward the end of their bout caught Vader off guard, allowing Luke to drive back andoverwhelm the experienced Sith Lord.[104]

Force powers

Jedi Knight

The fact that Skywalker was born with the highest known midi-chlorian count in galactichistory and was considered to be the Chosen One leads to various conclusions abouthis Force potential and power. During his lifetime he did not achieve his full potentialdue to his destiny as a tragic hero, but before his fall to the dark side, althoughextremely young and having less than perfect training (due to his late age joining theOrder), Skywalker was one of the most powerful living Jedi. If he had reached his fullpotential, he would have become the most powerful being in both Jedi and Sith history.

However, after his death, he became one with the Force, thus achieving his fullpotential. Obi-Wan Kenobi said to Darth Vader just before his death: "If you strike me

down I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine." If that is true, oneinterpretation would be that when one unites with the Force, a Jedi reaches the peak ofhis or her power.

Skywalker's unprecedented midi-chlorian count made him one of the most powerfulmembers of the Jedi Order; however, it also made Skywalker arrogant. When he cameto the Jedi Temple at the age of nine, he began to develop at a much faster andaccelerated pace than his fellow Padawans, further feeding his pride and self-importance.

Skywalker was skilled in the use of telekinesis able to lift heavy objects with minimaleffort. During his duel with Asajj Ventress on Yavin IV, he easily deflected a large pillarback at Ventress when she hurled it at him [116]and immediately afterwards he used theForce to block her Force Push without even slowing down.[116]He was also skilled atForce Jump, and was able to leap massive distances.[116]Skywalker was also capableof a powerful Force Push;[116]however it should be noted that despite having a strongerconnection to the Force than Obi-Wan Kenobi, his Force Push was unable to overcomeKenobi's during their duel on Mustafar.[117]He was also skilled at Jedi Mind Tricks.[118]However, Skywalker also had a habit of using theForce Chokepower, a sign of whoand what he would later become.

During the battle of Geonosis, Skywalker displayed some skill inAnimal friendship,allowing him to ride the reek that was present in the arena.[106]

Because his limbs were severed and his body severely burned on Mustafar Darth Vaderlost much of his Force potential. As Darth Vader, Skywalker was believed to have hadroughly eight-tenths of the strength of the Emperor. But even still, Vader wieldedtremendous power and skill. Had he sustained none of his injuries on Mustafar, hewould have been even more powerful than the Emperor.

The Emperor, having gone out of his way to keep Vader alive, took an alternativeviewpoint. Though it was true to say that he had not bargained for an apprentice thatwas "more machine than man", Palpatine was initially of the opinion that most of thelimitations on Vader's potential power were not physical but psychological. He believed

that, were Vader to fully confront his choices and disappointments to completely shakehimself out of his despair, he would have been able to reawaken the incredible powerwithin him. Yet, while Vader made progress in this regard, he was never fully able toaccept who, and what, he had become. Sidious would ultimately come to realize thatVader would never be the apprentice he longed for. He would try to replace him on atleast two occasions with more powerful Force-sensitives,Galen MarekandLukeSkywalker.

One of Vader's talents was to be able to block blaster bolts with his hands because hisgloves are composed ofa unique micronized ironthat could deflect anything short of alightsaber blow.

Darth Vader also seemed to favor theForce chokeability, as he demonstrated itnumerous times throughout his life.

Vader also appeared to have great physical strength, able to lift a grown man by thethroat with one hand, and picking up the Emperor and hurling him to his death. Whetherthese feats result from his use of the Force or from the power of his cybernetic limbs is

unknown. However, it seems most likely to be a result of his mechanical appendages,as when he choked Kenobi in their battle on Mustafar.

Besides the life support it provided his ravaged body, Vader's Sith armor also offeredsome protection against the blades of lightsabers. In a climactic duel with his son in the

depths of Cloud City, a quick blow from Luke's lightsaber appeared to cut the armor onlyshallowly, although this was enough to draw a surprised cry from the Dark Lord.

Because of his decreased mobility, he was at a disadvantage when dueling againstbeings using faster and quicker combat styles like Ataru. To counter fast-movingopponents, he would use the Force to pull out anything from his surroundings thatwasn't nailed to the ground and fling the improvised missiles at his opponent. Withoutmoving a muscle, anything from the venue of the battle could be used as a weapon tocrash against Vader's opponents from all directions in a never-ending barrage. DarthVader first used this tactic in the Duel on Mustafar, slicing shards of metal from the wallsand shooting them at Obi-Wan Kenobi. Darth Vader also used this tactic to bring down

Jedi Knight Roan Shryne, and most famously Luke Skywalker in their first duel onBespin.

It should be noted that Darth Vader, despite being a powerful Sith Lord, was unable togenerate Force lightning. This was due to his cybernetic implants, and any attempt byVader to generate it would cause it to backfire, electrocuting his life-support systems,causing it to short-circuit and kill him. This is ultimately how he was killed, as his act ofredemption in saving his son caused him to be bombarded with the Emperor's lightning.Because Vader's Sith powers were limited due to his artificial limbs, Darth Sidious foundhim less than satisfactory as his heir to the Sith legacy, despite the effort Sidious spentfor more than a decade to recruit Skywalker. Upon the discovery of Luke Skywalker,Palpatine concentrated on turning him to the dark side.

Other abilities

Anakin Skywalker was a man of many talents. He was well known for his exceptionalpiloting skills, skills that earned him a name as aJedi aceand aTan; having such apiloting reputation that some would go so far as to argue he was the best star pilot in thegalaxy. During Skywalker's tenure as a slave, he made a name for himself by being apodracer. He was one of the few Humans and the youngest one with the reflexes to

actually pilot a podracer, thanks to his Force sensitivity. Skywalker even won the BoontaEve Classic race at the age of nine, an act that won him his freedom. Young Skywalkeralso attracted the attention of many in the Republic: during the Battle of Naboo, hepiloted a Naboo starfighter and destroyed a Droid Control Ship. His efforts no doubtsingle-handedly helped win the battle, but it was only a foreshadowing of his skills to

come. During the Clone Wars, Skywalker was one of the Republic's best and mostfamous star pilots. He perfected an assortment of strategies; most notable was his skillat opening fire just before passing through enemy formations, leaving little time forevasion. He also displayed relentless tenacity in chasing down his targets as well asshaking off target locks. The latter ability would later be displayed by his son, LukeSkywalker. His abilities garnered the attention of both Chancellor Palpatine and hispeers. At the Battle of Coruscant, Skywalker was able to safely land the huge cruiserInvisible Hand, despite the fact that he was only flying half a ship, and it was not evenbuilt to be able to land.

"I can fix anything."Anakin Skywalker[src]

Skywalker was also known to be an exceptional mechanic. He could fix anything from adamageddroidmotivatorto a malfunctioningrepulsorlift. The young Skywalker quicklyunderstood how things worked, and his strong knowledge of mechanical systemscoupled with his closeness to the Force allowed him to pilot most vehicles andstarfighters. He used his droidhydrospanner wrenchto reassemble hisOtoga 222andbuilt welding goggles with many settings from scratch to use for precise work and todiagnose mechanical problems. At the age of nine he created, even with limitedresources, the protocol droid C-3PO to aid his mother. For the Boonta Eve Classic race,Skywalker entered his custom-built podracer made from parts found in Watto's junkshop. As testament to Anakin Skywalker's engineering brilliance, his Podracer featureda number of amazing innovations built into its compact frame. Skywalker salvaged apair of Radon-Ulzer 620C racing engines that Watto deemed too burned out to be of

any use. Less crafty pilots often invested in larger engines in the hopes of gettinggreater performance. The trouble with that route is that the larger the engine, theheavier the racer. Skywalker side-stepped that dilemma by developing a new fuelatomizer and distribution system that sent more fuel into the Radon-Ulzer's combustionchambers, radically increasing their thrust and his racer's top speed to almost 950kilometers per hour. Skywalker capped each Radon-Ulzer with a trio of bright yellow airscoops that provided additional control when braking and cornering. When meeting upwith his former slave owner, Skywalker proved his identity to the Toydarian by fixing a

machine Watto was tinkering with. During the Clone Wars Skywalker extensivelymodified a Delta-7 Aetherspritestarfighter into a fully customized starship known asAzure Angel; modifications that would pave the way for the Eta-2 Actisinterceptor.Skywalker also often tinkered with his prosthetic arm as he did his starfighter. The TIEAdvanced x1 starfighter was designed to Vader's specifications, having larger angular

wings, a considerably longer rear engine, and thicker support struts than the standardTIE. In addition, Skywalker was fluent in understanding the electronic language ofBinary, the information-dense, low redundancy electronic language of most pit crew andsimple droids, thus, allowing him to interface with them.

Darth Vader was a brilliant strategist and was still, despite his weakened powers, one ofthe greatest pilots in the galaxy. His armor did not dull the precognition ability hepossessed since childhood and he was able to predict the movements of his targetsduring dogfights with pinpoint precision. He still possessed his former persona'samazing engineering skills, having personally overseen the design of both his TIEAdvanced x1 fighter and the second Death Star's construction.

Anakin built and used two lightsabers during his time as a Jedi.

First Lightsaber

Main article:Anakin Skywalker's first lightsaber

In 28 BBY, as a young Padawan, Skywalker traveled to Ilum as a test of skill toconstruct his first lightsaber. While constructing his lightsaber deep inside one of thecaverns, Skywalker encountered a vision of Darth Maul. After a struggle, Skywalkermanaged to defeat this dark incarnation, and, upon awakening, Skywalker discoveredhe had constructed a lightsaber that contained one of the sapphireAdegan crystalsthatgrew in Ilum's caverns, giving the blade a distinct blue glow. The design of the hilt suitedhis practice of Form V. He did not do what many Padawans do and create a lightsaber

to resemble his master'sinstead creating a personalized make that favored maximumpower. This lightsaber would go on to be used by Skywalker up until the onset of theClone Wars, when it was destroyed just prior to the Battle of Geonosis.

Second Lightsaber

Main article:Anakin Skywalker's second lightsaber

Skywalker later built a new lightsaber of a slightly different design. This weapon was apowerful creation that portrayed his skill of mechanical engineering; specifically built and

designed for a master of Djem So, as Skywalker was soon to become. In 19 BBY, afterhis duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar, this lightsaber was taken by Skywalker'sformer Master, which he kept with him on Tatooine.

In 0 BBY, Kenobi passed Skywalker's lightsaber, the one he'd retrieved from the blackshores of Mustafar, down to Skywalker's son, Luke, whom Kenobi had been watchingover. Kenobi must have modified the saber while he was on Tatooine since the hilt wasslightly different at that time, most notably the belt fastener was changed from a clip intoa ring. In the hands of Luke Skywalker, Skywalker's blade was wielded againstnumerous foes, even against Skywalker himself as the Dark Lord of the Sith, DarthVader. During his duel on Bespin with Luke, Vader sliced off Luke's right hand, sending

both Luke's hand and lightsaber into the depths of Cloud City. The lightsaber, along withLuke's hand, would later be recovered.

A few years after Skywalker's death at Endor,Joruus C'baoth, a mad clone of JediMaster Jorus C'baoth, would use Luke's severed right hand to create a clone of theJedi,Luuke Skywalker. Wielding the blade of Skywalker, Luuke went on to duel LukeandMara Jade. After Luuke was killed by the combined effort of the duo, Lukerecovered his father's weapon and presented it to Mara as a gift. The lightsaber would

After his defeat on Mustafar at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi and the subsequent theftof his lightsaber by the Jedi Master,[11]Vader was forced to build a new weapon. Hisnew weapon was constructed in the shadow of the Death Star, with Palpatine providingthe synthetic lightsaber crystal for the weapon, as well as his own lightsaber to serve asa model. However, Vader considered his master's weapon an antique, and sought tocreate a personalized design with more ballast. Attempting to please Palpatine, Vaderattempted to create a novel design, but the resulting weapon was little more than ablack-alloy version of his first Jedi lightsaber.[81]

This weapon featured a thick, ridged handgrip, a high-output diatium power cell, a dual-phase focusing crystal, forward mounted adjustment knobs, and a beveled emittershroud. However, due to the size of his mechanical hands, Vader was forced to make
