How to Kill Darth Vader
Due to Darth Vader's slow movement speed, the best strategy is to maintain distance and attack him with long-range weapons such as rifles and Star Wars-themed weapons.
If you get too close, Darth Vader may use his abilities to pull you towards him with the force or fly in your direction periodically. In such situations, it is crucial to prioritize fleeing to avoid being within his melee range, where he can unleash devastating lightsaber attacks.
You should also seek cover while engaging Darth Vader, as he can send objects flying at you from a distance. Additionally, it is advisable to conserve ammunition, as Darth Vader can sometimes block projectiles with his lightsaber. So plan your attacks accordingly.
A recommended tactic is to stealthily search the tents in the area for an E-11 Blaster or a Wookie Bowcaster. These powerful weapons offer unlimited ammunition, providing a significant advantage against the dark force, Darth Vader.
