Question about holding the lightsaber


Sayir

Recommended Posts

So lately I've been seeing a lot of screenshots on here with juggernauts/guardians holding their lightsabers like a two-handed sword, but my 26 Juggernaut just holds it like a sorcerer.

 

Is there a point where its actually held like that, or does bioware just use it for looks on the news?

Never played a Juggernauts, but my Guardian hold his lightsaber with both hands, definately, not like my sorcerer.

I love the way my Jugg holds his saber, like he's really about to mess somebody up. I had to delete my Guardian because he looked extremely unnatural with his saber, holding it like a baseball bat. I really hope they do not have plans to change my Jugg.

I don't mind the two handed look, but I wonder how it looks with a curved hilt, might be why the Jug's don't use the same anim.

 

I think my marauder still has a curved hilt.

They ever going to fix that?

They screwed that up. The character holds the curved hilt backwards, it should curve away from your arm.

Actually i played Jugg and Guardian too and i like more Guardian way to hold tje lightsaber. There is nothing wrong with two-hands holding. It's classic. Jugg is arrogant sith warrior, more confident so he got lightsaber only in one hand - so as Darth Vader. So easy to handle it. I guess not much for Jedies, they need more control of their doing.

The way a Guardian runs with his lightsaber held like a baseball bat looks so unnatural. Awkward and funny looking.

 

Seem only right, since the damage of a lightsaber is no greater than baseball bat. And it breaks like a baseball bat too.

Oh great. Now I'm trying to work out gameplay rules for "Blastball".

 

Okay. So the pitcher fires a heavy blaster toward the catcher (well-armored), and the guy with the glowbat tries to deflect the bolt over the outfield fence or otherwise put it in play...

 

Gym "How do you bunt a blaster bolt?" Quirk
