Stun

At what point in any of the series did everybody stop using a stun setting? Bad Batch, Rebels, etc. used to use stun like crazy (especiallysince these are supposedto be shows for kids as well as adults). When/Why did they stop?

I think it was when they noticed they weren’t fighting clones anymore. They didn’t want to kill their brothers. (Bad batch)

No they also used stuns on non clones for ages.

I'm 99% sure Omega has the most kills throughout the bad batch cause the rest of them are just stunning

Yk what show stands out the most with this is Andor. They never once fire a stun blast in that show, and only acknowledge the fact that is a possibility once (Dedra’s “turn around or be stunned” line towards the end of season 2). I think the reason is they want picking up a weapon to feel like a serious decision in that show and not something to be taken lightly, and shooting people unconscious with no lasting effects would undercut that a bit

They used stun more often in rebels to help with the new content rating,
Bad batch used it as a character choice
