Single bladed vs double bladed lightsabers?

[Samyrius]

So, I just got Nadia Grell, and I'd like to give her a single-bladed saber so she looks different from me. But, before I do, I want to know what the differences are between a single- and double-bladed lightsaber, statwise. Assuming even-level mods, what are the differences between these two weapon types?

Nadia will suffer from using a single bladed lightsaber mainly because single bladed light sabers have a lower weapon damage value. in my experiance, she still uses all her powers with a different weapon, but they'll do less damage.

 

Here's what i do instead: I'm artifice so i can whip up hilts like nobodies business. I went down to coru and snagged the moddable electrostaff and leveled it up with my artifice parts. I tossed that on her and she melted faces.

 

Not as many faces as Zenith melts, but that's a different topic all together.

 

in short:

Single bladed light sabers do less damage

 

You can give her an electrostaff instead, and it works fine, and she still looks different.

 

Zenith is awesome.

I always felt like it's way better when your companion looks exactly the same. Might be harder for some imps to tell who's who in the middle of an intense fight.
