Summary. Darth Vader's armor is composed of durasteel and obsidian alloy, making it tough and resistant to lightsaber blades. The armor includes a breathing apparatus and vocabulator inside the helmet, allowing Vader to breathe and speak. The armor is heavy, weighing 264 lbs, and required cybernetics for Vader to move.
He weighed 120 kilograms in his armor, leaving deep, tank-like tracks in the mud wherever he walked, and was 2.03 meters tall in it. The armor also featured a remote to prep Vader's interceptor for combat.
In addition to causing content pain and itchiness, the suit is so constricting that it causes him to suffer from claustrophobia. He can only find relief by meditating in specially-constructed pressurized chambers where he can temporarily take off his suit and survive.
Solving for the mass of Vader (or as Obi Wan calls him in Episode IV, Darth). This gives Darth Vader a mass of 89 kg (196 lbs). Well, that's not too bad.
Because of the large amount of mass the overall armor contained (the shoulder armor alone weighed 12.2 kg), Vader did not often run, but was still capable of doing so if necessary. In addition, he was still capable of using Force speed, but rarely did so.
He can't use the Force against Thanos' mind, and he definitely won't prevail in a fight in the Marvel Universe if Thanos has the Infinity Gauntlet, but the Force will provide Darth Vader safe insurance. In the end, Thanos' neck is only as strong as his skin.
Weighing over 25 pounds each, Vader's shoulder pads prevent him from raising his arms above his head. This limitation forced Vader to combine several combat styles to suit his new body, resulting in him becoming one of the most talented lightsaber wielders in the galaxy.
As the foremost villain of the original trilogy, Darth Vader's towering character was made so by substantially increasing Anakin Skywalker's height with a specialized suit of armor.
Vader's suit took care of most of his need, which also included food. The suit feed Vader nutrients, which gave him the energy he needed to continue throughout his days. He also consumed RepMed vita paste through a straw, which was located within the grills of his mask.
1 Darth Vader Was 45 When He Died In Return Of The Jedi
Luke's faith in his father leads to his redemption, with Anakin turning against Palpatine at last. The greatest hero of Star Wars is redeemed when he is just 45 years old, finding peace in the Force at last.
While Vader and his suit will always be iconic, it's clear that Anakin's Darth Vader would have been much stronger without it. His fights with Ahsoka in Ahsoka episode 5 prove that, as even she is clearly terrified of her own master.
One of the things that made Darth Vader such a recognizable and powerful figure was the infamous armor he donned. Fully armored and with his boots and helmet on, he stood 2.03m, or around 6'7" tall.
How did Kylo Ren get the helmet of Darth Vader? Kylo Ren, while remaining anonymous, hired a bounty hunter to retrieve it from an ex Imperial stormtrooper named Jor Tribulus. Canon information states that Darth Vaders helmet was taken from his funeral pyre located on Endor in 4 ABY.
The tallest character in the entire Star Wars franchise is Chewbacca, played by the friendly giant Peter Mayhew, who at 7'2" is taller than David Prowse, who portrayed Darth Vader in George Lucas's original trilogy.
Ahsoka's Baylan Skoll knew that Darth Vader was Anakin Skywalker, a secret that very few people in the galaxy were aware of during the events of the latest Star Wars show.
Darth Vader's nicest moment may not be anything over the top or heroic, but when his life is coming to an end, Darth Vader decides he wants to see his son with his own eyes.
Above all, Darth Vader's mask enables him to breathe through a series of devices. If he took his mask off, Vader would rapidly suffocate and die. Additionally, all its other enhancements would fail, compromising many if not all his primary senses.
Once the Hulk reaches him, he was ZERO chance. Vader is (was) a heavy weight in the Star Wars galaxy but against one of the most powerful beings of the Marvel universe, he has no chance.
While Vader had his weaknesses, including vulnerability to electricity, characters like Emperor Palpatine, Mace Windu, Yoda, and Obi-Wan Kenobi all had the potential to defeat him in battle.
As further highlighted by Vader and Kylo's redemption stories, it was a lesson that Kylo Ren never fully learned himself, which makes Darth Vader the more powerful user of the Force between the two of them in Star Wars.
