Why Vader Decided Not to Clone His Limbs - Star Wars Explained

"why didn't Vader clone his limbs?" The writers didn't think of it at the time.

I don't know, Sidious believed his weakened power was actually due to a mental block and i'm pretty sure he was briefly proven right in Legends.

You missed another successful clone as Luke himself had several clones of himself produced by Joruus, and Thrawn, and if both Starkiller's and Joruus' clones count Luke's should as well.

This helmet off thumbnail is the best artistry of Vader I have ever seen!!

I learned the other day that Obi-Wan grew another Anakin using some bacta in a bathtub and Anakin's severed hand

everyone: trying to clone force sensetives and failing marka ragnos: look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power

If I were Vader, I would have found another Force sensitive, cut off their limbs, then cloned replacements and watched what happened. Then he could see how he should proceed based off the results.

so happy you will be making a video for X1 and X2 was worried that you wouldn't say anything about them but am glad you mentioned them and really can't wait for that video

Thumbnail Vader lookin' like Sudowner.

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS

My question is, assuming that they survived, why weren't Vader's limbs not recovered and reattached...? For that matter, why wasn't Padawan Skywalker's arm reattached after that fight with Darth Tyranus?! It was laying right there in plain sight for goodness sake!

Anakin was NOT force sensitive , he WAS the force. The force created him . Even in the extremely warped Disney cannon Anakin did not die on the death star , he transcended into a higher form . The rules of force sensitives do not apply to him as they do everyone else . Who knows , he might have even been able to completely heal himself if he tried hard enough.

The first successful force sensitive clone was one made by Eldon Ax’s blood. When her mom created the clone she used chemicals to suppress her sensitivity to the force instead of weeding it out. I think part of the process to actually make a force sensitive clone is using something the blocks out the force during the process. I have a theory that if a force clone was ever made of Nathema then the process wouldn’t be disturbed by the force.

Poor Qui-Gon..... if only bacta and cloning was available in Qui's day....

Do you ever think about doing your show in the podcast form? I would love listening to your episodes on spotify.

Joruus was unstable due to fast growth using Spaarti cloning technology. Thrawn needed to use ysilimari to stabilize the clones so they wouldn't develop madness.

Also i would count the clone trooper Glitch which was more of a im not sure what to call it since he is a clone of a none force sensitive but somehow was connected to the force unlike his brothers

Im pretty sure people dont lose power from lack of limbs. Its not total medichlorians its medichlorians per cell. Yoda had the highest count in the jedi order per cell before anakin came along but yoda would not have had the most in total amount because of how small he is. This was explained in the phantom menace that its how many you have per each cell rather than how many total. The only thing that does affect them is their potential connection due to cybernetics but not their potential. Vader was explained to have been held back by his mental state and a mental block, not his loss of limbs.

YouTube recommended this to me so fast the upload time on it read as "1 min ago"

He should have done it,even if his own midis didn't spread out to the new limbs, (though they might) he'd be much more mobile, probably almost as much as he was before ending up as a pizza. Also, lung and eye transplants DO exist, so he could not have the breathing or eyesight problems if he so chose. I think it would have been worth the risk
