      I’m still pretty salty about the way Disney made Beskar the most specialist and stronkest metal it’s so cool guys look at him ignore everything dangerous isn’t that exciting?!???!?

      Mandalorian steel was supposed to be blaster proof but not lightsaber proof, that’s why the Republic needed Jedi to stop them, because they’d curb stomp even elite troops between their better armor and warrior culture training fetish.

        For an even longer amount of time mandalorian was just the dude who got eaten by a sarlach pit. The beskar thing wasn’t even Disney’s idea because Fantasy Flight Games had it before they did and Lucas Arts before them. It originates from the Clone Wars animated series.
