Ok, in EP5, on the brige of Vader's SD, He said to Boba Fett "I want him alive, No disintegrations" Leaving us to believe the weapon he used to have that ability.
At MBH there should be a special, that is only available if you have the MBH rifle equipped, that will disintegrate any NPC if it's HP are below some % of the health(leave the %up to debate)
The biggest downside to this would be with no body, no loot. unless we could loot the pile of ash left behind.
the upside is, if you are fighting a boss with 30k+ hp, this would be a good move to try along the lines of LD for smuggler to get yourself out of a jam, but not so similar as to incap you when you use it.
Now before anyone says "that would be unfair for pvp" an idea to fix that would be to not allow this move to work other than doing damage more inline with other BH specials, during any PVP engagement, including hunting of PC jedi.
This is not a finished idea, any insight, suggestions and argument for and against welcome.

Hmm, i'm not 100% on the weapon but i remeber that particular bounty being mention in EU.
As for what he used, i'd guess a flame thrower or nade

I don't care about the damage or any other game mechanics. All I want to know is:
Can we get the cool death graphics from Fallout?

I think your sig is funny MManes...
rock paper scissors... it almost makes sense... except... jedi are 1.5 rocks 1.5 scissors AND 1.5 paper all in one... according to the devs they were never intended to be equal to norms.

That whine can pretty much go out to every profession except the ones so broken they just want the devs to notice them in the corner there. There are too many players that think they should be able to beat anyone, and so when they lose they think that it was because the other profession was overpowered, not because they weren't as good.

^ teh rock paper scissors thing methinks
But anyways, why doesn't the Tenloss DXR6-B Disruptor Rifle disrupt your target at the molecular level, causing them to shred apart in intense pain
