Our strategy for Angry Birds Star Wars Path of the Jedi level J-16 is to fire Luke into the Force-held TNT block, throwing mini asteroids into the stand-in Vader. The debris can pop most of the pigs. Use another Luke to trigger the remaining TNT and pop any remaining pigs.
If you have a different strategy feel free to leave a comment below; however, don't just post your score via the comments, as that's what the leaderboards are for.


Didn’t know where the 3-star-cut-off really is.
My first successful trial yielded 62k-something, which I hit the center TNT and make all little rocks flying and kill all the pigs. I haven’t manage to detonate the second TNT. Maybe if someone is able to, it will help increasing your score.
Aim Luke on the black TNT right and make it explode with the saber. The asteroid will fly all around and kill all the pig.
1 birder possible
Sorry aim on the boulder
It’s important to aim on the pile of boulders and not on the TNT. You will get that other TNT more or less 100% of the time.
66840 1-birder, I aimed at the junction between the boulders and TNT. :)
I finally hit it right , 68210 :)
Yep. On the boulders & one border guaranteed usually..
This one can score higher points, but takes a lot of try-and-miss to achieve.
Flew very low on planet, aimed for pile, this set off chain reaction killing all pigs..total 65,420
Yes absolutely yes you are right one birdie enough . I got 64 900 following your idea . I try to increase my score. Playing again same method .
Genius! I got 11k higher almost immediately after reading this strategy! Thanks so much @traneric! :)
U r welcome, I’m pleased I could help.
used the same strat! got 66k
Thanks @traneric — Your strat got me 69890 and 2nd place for the time being.
@traneric….a great strat. Thanks.
This is a very promising method. Haven’t managed the 1-bird yet (I keep missing the “Pork on a Rope”), but I’m going to keep trying. I like the idea of getting more point by setting off the extra TNT.
In the meantime, I did get the 1-bird with @steely59 ‘s method. Without the black TNT it yields less points, but is easily repeatable.
thanks @traneric got 4k improvement:)
U r welcome
Great strat @traneric ;-) I had got the one birdie by going straight through the middle but your strat got me up to 69030. Thanks!
A 1-birder is defiantly possible, but for all the work it took, the result was very disappointing. I shot Luke at the pile of rocks next to the lowest TNT. Just before Luke arrived, I activated the light saber to cause a powerful enough explosion to forcefully send the stones and Luke everywhere. After many tries, I finally got lucky with the blast dispersal and everything was destroyed. The score (64,880) was very disappointing, being 1410 points less than my prior high of 66,290.
I’m done with this level since I obviously don’t stand a chance against the arbitrary point awarding system.
No don’t quit! All you had to do was hit the boulders THEN activate the lightsaber. All of the bird powers can still be used on this game half a second after impact.
Hope this helps.
BTW @traneric I did not realize I could improve on this level until I finally cracked and decided I had to blow up the black TNT on this one. Took me forever to figure something out, but if I had come here it would’ve been a million times faster. In the end, this way got me the 2000 extra points that gave me jedi addict.
Thanks @Traneric! This yielded me 2000 more than the method @steely59 mentioned. Keep up the good work!
@traneric thanks for the strat..worked great only took a few tries:) ty ty..:)
Ur welcome @kathy
@traneric thank you, I lucked out and did it this way first time but when I came here and read that it was working I kept at it and got a much better score! This is definantly the way to go. :)
One bird: 63590. Same technique as the video, accidentally clipped the left-most bird as well
65970…I launched Luke at the TNT on the planet. For me, a LUCKY one birder.
“Traneric’s” strat. 70k. thanks.
Another way to get a one birder is to go north just on the inside rim of the orbit, go through the rope where the the pig is hanging and use the laser sword to set off the TNT.
Im surprised nobody else commented on this, this method is so easy. Flung Luke high, through pork-on-rope, saber the TNT, bobs your uncle as everything else dies. It’s cake.
Got 65390 by going north and and slashing roped pig, but Traneric’s strategy gave the better score for me: 68340, but some luck required either way to take all with one pig.
Slip of the tongue on prior comment: take all with one bird
I got it w/ 1 bird too about 2 weeks ago, but the score was low. I’ll have to come back to it someday and raise it some more.
The easiest way to get one bird, 3*s every time is to aim for Darth piggy and swing the saber just as you hit the TNT. I got 63,240 the first three times I did it. However, the better score is def with Traneric’s strat. Took awhile but got 70K even.
Aim right between lower TNT and asteroids and use light saber to set off TNT. 68130.
Just launched Luke straight at the rock pile on the planet as others had suggested, waited a split second after contact, then used the saber. After 100 or so tries, raised score from 66,000 to over 70,000. I took a screen shot but not sure how to show it here. I’m sure my high score won’t last, but it would be nice to have the ability to post links to screen shots here as others have done. Sometimes I even see images here on the board. Any suggestions on an easy way to post a link or an image?
Let’s see how tis works:

Send Luke around the top side of nearest planet just missing rocks hanging down for second planet, breaking string holding pig dropping him on other pig, use light saber to blow up TNT, and Luke should come around green rocks and kill the last pig. My score 64,690.
