Field laser

Field lasers were lasers that could dispel plasma fire. In 40 BBY, the Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, used the lasers to assist a soulcraft that had been attacked by a plasma bomb above the Inner Rim planet Pijal. Though they began cutting through the plasma fire, a starship—which they later learned was the Meryx—fired an antiplasma charge and doused the flames.
