Who'd win? Boba Fett or Druge?

Boba would need a REALLY big gun to manage that I think.

Maybe, but to make sure, I'd go with the main cannons on the Slave I. Remember, Durge can regenerate even if he has only one cell left, although it would probably take a really, really long time.

To be honest I know jack shit about Durge.

Oh, well, I think there's a Databank entry on him. He's one weird mofo.

Depends on how it compares to the anti-armor missile launchers we see the ARC Troopers carrying around because Durge took a hit from one in addition to sustained fire from easily a dozen clonetrooper rifles.

Bombing an entire ship to get Senotor Amidala is "bring them in?" I'd hate to see Boba's methods, then.

That was Zam, not Jango.

BOBA FETT: "What if he doesn't survive? He's worth a lot to me."

I would say Boba appears to go for more about the income value.
Hence his capture of the Devorian in Tales of the Bounty Hunters. Alive = 5 million, dead = squat !

Given the sheer numbr of canon contradictions in that book, I'm not certain it is official.

Well, the clone troopers have PLX-1's, with . The later- and more powerful PLX-2M is standard loaded with 3t3's, comparable to the K26's Fett likes. Clouds of T12a's should also be useful.

Once (if) Fett breaks Durge's armour, a T12b would be extremely useful. Even a Gen'Dai should be knocked out by that much FGA-583.

Also everything i've read says that missile you're referring to is the little one on his arm. And there's still the matter of the truly ludicrous amount of fire he took from the Clonetroopers after his armor was taken out.

Yes, the MM9 is the little arm one. But it packs a punch (one K26 can annihilate a speeder bike).

Yes, the fire from the DC-15's is heavy (I'm basing on what others have, posted, having not seen any Clone War episodes) and I'm not sure if Fett can match it (or even survive long enough to match it), which is why I put an (if) in my last post. If he has his backpack launcher (whatever it is), it should help, and his EE-3 set to dump much of its power pack at once is also good. But really, I don't know enough about Durge to pass judgement.

EDIT: Is Durge's armour flammable? If so, then Fett's C-22 would really be useful.

The battle goes something like this.

Durge busts through the window in the Banking Clan HQ

He immediately comes under fire from a half dozen clonetroopers plus the ARC Trooper Sergeant. The ARC's got a pair of large blaster pistols and the clones all have standard rifles.

The fire takes out his pack and Durge hits the ground, still under fire from the clones when a second ARC trooper moves up and fires a missile from his PLX-1 Missile Launcher (Which we see destroy a Trade Federation AAT in an earlier episode). Everyone stops firing and clonetroopers move in to inspect the crater (note there are seven troopers here so that would seem to indicate more than just the half-dozen we see in frame with the ARC)

A tentacle like limb whips out and smashes the troopers aside. (here we see an additional 4 clonetroopers and when it cuts over to Obi-wan and the ARC trooper they have the half-dozen already accounted for. That brings things up to a minimum of 17 Clonetroopers plus the two ARCs). Durge pulls himself out of the crater and starts going after Obi-wan who gets clear of Durge using force speed just as he smashes the table they're on.

Grapple lines sink into Durge from the sides and Clonetroopers descend from above, firing their weapons. I count 8 coming from one side, six from the other. Durge takes quite a few hits before thrashing about, shaking the clones from their lines and charges Obi-wan whom he engulfs despite coming under fire from the ARC commander who then fires a dart and line into Durge's forehead and starts pumping him full of electricity. Durge seems to somehow send the current back down the line and blow the ARC off his feet before charging which is when Obi-Wan uses his telekinetic abilities from inside to make Durge explode.

Obi-wan gives himself a pat on the back, snaps off a one liner and when it cuts to a wider shot we see two puddles of the durge goo slithering off in opposite directions.

I could probably get a rough idea of how many hits he took using my VCR instead of the copy I have stored on my cable box if you like.

EDIT: And Durge's armor appears to be metal so I doubt it. Oh and in the previous episode he smacked Obi-wan around quite a bit despite having a lightsaber embedded in his chest (not to mention he was able to swing around a speeder bike like a baseball bat). And Boba's not the only one with a flamethrower either

Boba Fett · Post by **Boba Fett** » 2003-12-02 06:20am

What kind of armor Durge has?

Is it a normal body armor or some kind of "powersuit"?

SylasGaunt · Post by **SylasGaunt** » 2003-12-02 03:21pm

Star Wars.com referrs to it s High-Impact armor and we know it took quite a bit of fire before failing (not to mention it is apperantly strong enough that a lightsaber can't cut through it on its own, it needs the extra oomph of a stab or swing).

Rogue 9 · Post by **Rogue 9** » 2003-12-02 04:47pm

So does it employ cortosis ore? Wait, no, cortosis would overload the lightsaber and shut it off. Hmm. Wonder what would cause resistance to lightsabers...

*snip*

In that case, Boba would probably lose. If he's in the open, he can use his Z-6 jetpack to stay away from Durge while shooting at him, but I doubt he has the raw firepower.

SylasGaunt · Post by **SylasGaunt** » 2003-12-02 09:06pm

Durge is armed as well. 2 blaster pistols, a flail, a flamethrower, needle shooter, and a pair of force field generators that make little shields he can block a lightsaber with.. and he has a jetpack to

Well Obi-wan's lightsaber could still cut through Durge's armor but he had to be swinging or stabbing with it to penetrate. This is most noticeable after Durge smacks Obi-wan in the face, leaving the saber impaled through him where hte pull of gravity is apperantly insufficient pull to get it to cut through the armor. It's just resistant, not proof against sabers.
