Gambit weapon question & theory

#1 Posted by Namor1987 (1848 posts) - 2 years, 6 months ago - Show Bio

If Gambit used a gun couldn't he speed up the bullet's speed that which it travel through the air & make it more deadly upon impact? Also couldn't make himself do a sorta of automatic quick draw if he sped up the particles in his body?

Techincally he SHOULD be able to do that because his powers deal with the manipulation of kinetic energy. He should also be able to rob kinetic energy and render things motionless.

Theoreticly gamit should be able to charge the bullets and control when the explode after he fires them.

He could also turn Cyclops' powers against him like if he put his fingers on Cyclop's eyes/glasses or whatever & charged them/it up he could technically burn out or cause Scott's eyes to explode in his head, right?

Lol who say its not a fully functioning rifle? But maybe he wants to test the boundaries of his powers & think out of the box

@Namor1987:
This is what Gambit can do if his powers are able to reach their full potential...

I was talking about at his current power level & state but also that Cyclops' powers run off kinetic energy could he do that in his current state?

@Namor1987: The Cyclops theory is actually pretty interesting. What form of energy is Cyclops's beam? I know he has to absorb solar energy to use his powers, but what is the beam itself?

Cyclops' beams are ambient solar energy like from the stars & sun but it's says the beams come out as kinetic energy

@Namor1987: So couldn't Gambit just manipulate it indefinitely? If he wanted to he could turn them on and off whenever he pleases, lol

#13 Posted by nightshroud1 (64 posts) - 2 years, 6 months ago - Show Bio

gambit can only charge objects with kinetic energy he can't manipulate them like havok

#14 Posted by Namor1987 (1848 posts) - 2 years, 6 months ago - Show Bio

@nightshroud1: But with that being said couldn't he charge the vizor that Cyclops wears & reverse the flow of kinetic energy aka Cyke's optic blast back in to his own head causing him to die or have his eyes explode? BTW doesn't his current powerset allow him to charge inorganic & organic materials?

Gambit isn't immune to his powers once their active, he blinded himself at one point in time due to one of his throwing cards blowing up right in his face.

wouldn't Gambit using his powers on a gun be like Orson Randal using the Iron Fist on a gun

I'm not saying that neither one is awesome but they sound similar
Also why doesn't Gambit use a bladed weapon since if he charged that it cause a lot more damage like cut through Iron Man's armor atleast

well, he used to charge knifes before playing cards but i don't know about now ,so if gambit as new sun can charge planets
and make them explode with the power of an exploding sun and still survive, would that make him the strongest omega level mutant or what?And i know that he can't reach that level but if he did.

When Remy had his gray matter put back in he was able to manipulate the energy to travel through time, so theoretically he should be able to control Cykes power but thats at full power, he should be able to do what namor1987 says, he should also be able to speed steal. speed steal is a technique that DC's Flash can use to stop a persons motion by robbing them of thier energy

Also it's been said that Remy can block bullets fired from a semi-automatic weapon by spinning his bo staff fast enough. So theoretically he can stop bullets with just that at the least. That's not even deferring to his ability to manipulate the kinetic energy itself of the bullets.

I think we all can agree that his powers are to complex for him to just throw exploding cards.

Gambit

Gambit is a charming master thief turned X-Man. He possesses the mutant ability to charge inanimate objects with kinetic energy, causing them to explode. Gambit's signature move is throwing charged playing cards.
