The LL-30 blaster pistol fragments a meter wide foot thick area of decking, made of conventional metals such as steel or titanium. This much metal would mass in the region of one or two tons at the density of either titanium or steel.

If single blaster shots can fragment between 500 and 1,000 kilos of metal, tens or hundreds of blaster shots should fragment hundreds of tons of conventional material.

Note this decking is conventional metal not armour. Blasters only pock mark the surface of armour.

Fair use the clone wars
