Warning ! This clause contains spoilers for Star Wars : Darth Vader # 35Star Warshas no shortage of implausibly knock-down weapons , though a surprisingly little number of them have anything to do with the Force , at least , until now , asDarth Vader ’s Modern weapon – the Zaly Shield – is the ultimate Force upgrade .

The Zaly Shield is an artefact create by fissiparous scientist Dr. Istan Zaly . The shield is made from pure kyberite , which is the substance kyber crystals are grown from . Just as kyber crystal are attuned to the Force – which is why they are used within lightsabers – the kyberite can concentrate and guide the Energy Department channeled through the Force . While the shield is a long - forgotten artefact that many Force - wielders would n’t have any involvement in receive anyway , the current plight Darth Vader find himself in makes the buckler not just of pastime to him , but something that is , in fact , necessary for his continued survival . And , now that he has it , Darth Vader has become more powerfulthan perhaps he ’s ever been inStar Warshistory .

Darth Vader is at Max Power with the Zaly Shield

InStar Wars : Darth Vader#35 by Greg Pak and Raffaele Ienco , Darth Vader tracks down Doctor Aphra as she is the only soul he can think of who might bang the placement of the Zaly Shield . The reason Vader needs the artifact is that his grip on / controller over the Force is flimsy , at best . Sincethe Fermata Cagewas open by Lady Qi’ra , the Force has been surging across the wandflower . The reason being that the Fermata Cage released a wave of Force energy , stimulate ripples in the cosmic current that every living thing – specially those who are peculiarly intune with the Force – can palpate . Sometimes Darth Vader feels as though he ’s rationalise off from the Force alone , while other times he ’s surging with so much mightiness that he ca n’t even manipulate it . During one such time , Vader accidentally tore a hole in the hull of his ship , which sucked him out to outer space and about kill him . Vader is vulnerable when he ’s shorten off from the Force , and a very real risk to himself when he is hit with a flood of Force push . However , with the Zaly Shield , Vader has efficaciously neutralise both weaknesses , and turned them into incomparable forcefulness .

When Darth Vader is cut off from the Force , the Zaly Shield becomes a heavy bit of nearly unbreakable stuff , able-bodied to harbour him from practically any tone-beginning while he ’s free to counter with one of his own . And , when he ’s heave with power from a Force rippling , that ’s when the shield really becomes the prized artillery he try . give way that it ’s made from kyberite , the Zaly Shield can channel and guide Force energy , no matter how powerful . That means the raw magnate Vader could n’t assure – the same great power that made him rip a hole in his own ship – is made into a concentrated blast of pure Force Energy Department through the Zaly Shield , mean Vader now has full control over his previously irregular Force power .

The reason the Zaly Shield is perhaps the most powerful Force weapon in the galaxy ( aside from being one of the few one of eminence ) is very much due to who is wielding it and when it is being manage . The ripples in the Force make violence - users more knock-down than they ’ve ever been , which is why it ’s so concentrated to control . This mean the Force - energy attack Vader can shoot through the Zaly Shield is the strongest concentration of Force energy that has ever been shown . So , from its practical uses to its power to channelise Force attacks no matter how unassailable , it ’s easy to see howDarth Vader ’s Zaly Shield isStar Wars ' ultimate Force rise .
