10 Most Powerful Weapons In Star Wars

As highlighted in a few of the other weapons mentioned on this list, the galaxy has offered up a number of devices designed to dispatch a specific type of target, be that a robotic foe or even someone equipped with Mandalorian armour, for example.

However, arguably the most lethal tool to fall into this specially-tailored category made its presence known during the Clone Wars as the Separatists unveiled a cannon designed to nullify the threat of the Jedi and their army of clone troopers. The Defoliator, attached to a modified Armoured Assault Tank, possessed the power to destroy all organic life that found itself coming into contact with its blast.

If you grew, it was bad news for you, in other words.

Obviously this meant that droids would be completely unharmed by the weapon, giving them a ridiculous advantage whenever The Defoliator came into play. Although General Anakin Skywalker was able to take one out after its first appearance and test run on Maridun, its capabilities were witnessed once again during General Grievous' Massacre of the Nightsisters on Dathomir.
