G-Seven Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Great model, but it looks like the perfect lightsaber for a Jedi who is overcompensating for certain anatimomical deficiencies! Try it out on a body type 2 character and compare it to other models. This must be an unintentional coding/design flaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovethebeard Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 imo it looks perfect! I love the new design on the saber, it takes me back to the movies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Seven Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 imo it looks perfect! I love the new design on the saber, it takes me back to the movies! Except that it's twice as big! Bigger is not always better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suromir Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 go figure...BioWare is terrible at scaling when it comes to weapons..look at DA:O for examples. yah it's a great looking saber..sadly..the size makes it completely ridiculous looking...at least the single-bladed version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmymillertime Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Do the weapons ever scale? I do not think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Seven Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 Do the weapons ever scale? I do not think so. Maybe this model was designed exclusively for body type 3?! I'll have to check my Jugg when I get home, because he is large and in charge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorroazul Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Maybe this model was designed exclusively for body type 3?! I'll have to check my Jugg when I get home, because he is large and in charge! You're quite right, pal. I've just checked with my sith juggernaut body type 3 and he looks OK with this model. Then I actually wanted to buy a pair for my female marauder, body type 1, who looks quite sleek and elegant but....-Sheesh! previewing these over-sized bats looks like she's playing with maracas!!!

Darth_Moonshadow Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 This is freakishly big? Please, I handle bigger when I use the urinals. There is a reason why I wear a robe, despite being a Sith Warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OddballEasyEight Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 well compared to its inspiration its just a bit longer. Not much bigger in general, just longer. And not by much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimG Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Do the weapons ever scale? I do not think so. Nope, and if they truly scaled, it would be really hard to even tell any difference between the lightsaber designs. I think they are purposefully a little bigger so you can actual see the different designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Seven Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 well compared to its inspiration its just a bit longer. Not much bigger in general, just longer. And not by much either. I think I could deal with the length, if the hilt wasn't so fat. It just looks clownishly out of place on body type 1's and 2's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackavaar Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yeah, noticed this in the preview, hence the reason I did not buy one. I predict the prices for these on the GTN will drop drastically when everyone realizes nobody wants a saber hilt that is larger than their legs. Really, the only characters this looks even halfway decent on are the male fat bodies (Body Type 4). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Apart from it being HUGE (fingers is clipping into it...) it doesn't even make appropriate sounds. What's up with cartel market blasters and lightsabers making those really weak sounds? I hate how this saber squeals on ignition instead of doing what hear in movies in most cases.

facesofderek Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I like it, I've been wanting a longer hilt lightsaber for my BT 3 Warriors and Knights because the other ones seem to just fit their hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you want for the CM stuff to sound better than the items we can earn by playing? I really don't care if the CM stuff is low quality......because I'd rather earn stuff than grind credits to buy something off the GTN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetsPatogga Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Does someone have a good picture of this Derelict Lightsaber in game depicting its hugeness? The shot on Dulfy is at an odd angle and I'm not really seeing the humongousness in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZachSDMF Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I have it on my body type 3 Jedi Guardian and it looks too big. Needs to be scaled down just a smidge. Otherwise, great saber. Looks like a mix between Anakin/Luke and Obi-Wan from Episode I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merwanor Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 (edited) Is it not typical, when they finally release a lightsaber model that actually looks great, they somehow scaled it wrong. It looks really stupid, way to big. It is like you are using a double bladed lightsaber as a normal one. Edited June 15, 2013 by Merwanor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radzkie Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 (edited) It is too big, but it's a nicely designed saber. Simple and sleek. I'm using it for my PvP set. Hopefully it'll be scaled down more in the future. Edited June 15, 2013 by Radzkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
