They would catch it with the force if they realized what it was. But since their traning seems to boil down into deflect lasers, push robots, and slash things. I doubt they would be ready to face their first explosive weapon. I'm pretty sure that if they caught it with the force that would register as an impact and the rpg would explode and I doubt they have enough control to stop all the shrapnel or be strong enough to contain the explosion.TaborMallory post=18.53177.660071 said:Looking back, I found something intriguing (o hai thur, i spelt it correctly the first time!).
I'm not a superfan of starwars, but wouldn't the jedi just catch said projectiles with the force? If you think about it, RPGs and rockets don't usually go as fast as bullets do, which is why I didn't mention them in my post above.Limos post=18.53177.660013 said:As I think about it now, Jedi versus any kind of explosive projectile equals a dead jedi. Their response to projectile attacks is to deflect it with the lightsaber, you can't deflect explosive. Especially if it was one of the military types that is programmed to explode just before it hits the target so he'd get his lightsaber up to block and it explodes before it gets there and showers him with deadly shrapnel.
Mostly I think their first reflex would be to just slash it, which would then cause it to explode and they would be shredded by hot shards of metal and doom.
