Przemo_No Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I do not get that at all. I mean there are ENOUGH colors of sabers already. and in fact you can have it EVEN in double color, provided you bought the CE. So...what's the fuss about?

TheLonelyTusken Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 A whip saber. Dagger saber. Pike saber. Plasma shield. Fan lightsaber. Prong handled saber. Mini-scale saber. swords, axes and maces. Walking sticks for the force centered classes. New colors. More prominent hilts. That's all I came up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kheldras Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Jedi / Sith = Lightsaber /thread You dont want WoW-like glitter everywhere Weapons, right? And the last idea I got, is to enable legacy XP to level your weapon's DPS, sort of like the legendary weapons in LOTRO. SHHH! "Legendary" Grindweapons was the worst idea ever in LOTRO. At least, how they implemented it... Leveling huge amounts of weapons, then take them apart to level other weapons and combine 8 levels of lottery components.

BenjaminminU Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 there are still a few colors that would be cool i guess (grey, black, idk whatelse). also the idea of the black core/X color like black/yellow that are for preorder ppl...but mix it up like purple core/red or blue core/green etc etc. also a saber that has multi color like firefly's or the lava blades from swg: http://eternal-shadows.com/sitebuilder/images/LavaSaber22-345x600.jpg Lava Crystal would be incredible in game, although it would have to be a flashpoint boss drop. Or perhaps even have it craftable from 3 pieces like it was in galaxies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerokTalram Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Loving those chopsabersticks! I'd like to see new light saber combat animations and maybe we could dual wield a regular saber and a double bladed saber at the same time like in one of the intros, or maybe dual wield 2x double bladed sabers. Or the limp saber Mr. Herbert has haha. That dueling with a saber and double bladed saber was a one off thing and don't think Shan's Master would have normally done that. Normally I'm sure for safety reasons, you would turn one end of the double bladed saber. BW kept it on because they thought it looked cool. Adding it to the game would be a stupid idea and dual double blades is even dumber. No way anyone could properly wield that. Other then maybe a droid like Grevious.

cs_Kimmo Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 If lightsabres do not interest you, I don't know what the you're doing here on these forums, OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenyr Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Ok so the colors are already bring, magenta was lame, republic complained and got purple on vendors, and white!! How does bioware keep weapons interesting for force users? Im shadow and at this point would rather be using some huge pimp war staff, then a lightsaber. You can only do so many colors before your team needs to get creative with hilts and different takes on lightsaber weapons I think. thoughts? Pretty much the colour will be irrelevant when most likely crystals with multistats will be implemented. Having a unique colour on your lightsaber might make some players that they are 'special'. Who knows maybe legendary crystals will make those players 'special' For me is green which I like. I dont care is if rainbow crystal is just I dont like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymaniac Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 One thing WoW did right is weapons. Getting a new weapon from a raid, EVERYONE wanted to see what it looked like--and it usually didn't disappoint. Really not sure where they go from here...I would say fancier hilts...but some hilts are already fancy--just almost impossible to see clearly. Definitely. One of the most fun things, not just in WoW, but in LotrO as well for me was to dressing room every piece of gear, including weapons. Its too bad, we don't have the variety in weapons with lightsabers. Every saber is the same with just a different colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKDeath Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 This problem extends to other areas of the game as well. Since they're using an established IP there can only be so many lightsabers. Eventually that gets boring and doesn't leave them much room to innovate. Same goes with planets and flashpoints. No matter what new content they're going to come out with it's going to be droids and aliens, more droids and aliens, and yet more droids and aliens. Boooooooring. At least with franchises like WoW it's their own and they can add whatever they want. From dragons to robots and everything in between there's no limit to what they can do. The same just can't be said for the Star Wars IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfninjajedi Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Could add some protosabers? Some could still be around in this time period. Could be a drop or something. Edited March 16, 2012 by Wolfninjajedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andryah Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 "Transparent" crystals will be the new "white". Problem is, you're gonna poke your eye out with your lightsaber now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boooooooring. Different people, different tastes. Nothing is more satisfying then blowing the nuts and bolts off of droids and then scavenging them for materials. I could do it all day long. Beats the heck out of killing orcs, trolls, and Nelfs. NOW, if I could do it to my ship droid, SWTOR life would be perfect.

Jellison Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Lightsaber length selection. Yoda had a tiny one. I see no reason why someone can't dual wield small ones for increased attack speed/ energy regen at the cost of damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordRichardEW Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Maybe add some color crystals that add some visual effects to the blade. Possible effects for new color crystals: - blade takes on a rougher less focused appearance. - blade pulse - white or blade lighting that goes up only around the blade. - blade becomes more angler maybe something like Epyon's from gundam wing. - blade periodicity changes colors - blade looks like Foxie's from drawn togther....(yea might be a bit much) - ect Maybe have the hilt change things up bring cause a saber to be a short saber or a double side saber to come a light saber scythe.

Deewe Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Dude a light saber is already the most exciting weapon ever. How can you improve on that you ask? You simply cannot. That is until you use it as a glow bat in a Hutball game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
