New Lightsaber Colors

[Altmer1989]

But why a lightsaber "crystal"? You can use lots of stuff instead of crystals such as physical remains, shards of glass, and even special micro machinery.

Oh comeon physical remains who in the entirety of star wars have ever used that how could you even project a beam of light through it?

Jedi imbune their crystals with the Force before placing them in their lightsaber. The same can be done with just about anything. And light can penetrate through anything if it is focused in a sufficient amount. I don't know who uses this, but it is possible.

if im gonna use a unique lightsaber io want their to be ways to customize it for example a hooked hilt would act differentlly in a different form and a straight would to also their should be opsions to make your saber thick - thin and curved - straight and depending on your settings they forms would have different effects

and the black lightsaber sounds kool but id like to have all the other lightsaber colours and seeming how they have a white light shining from within their should be a black light shining from with in

p.s. yes i know that black is an absence of light but this is star wars i mean the fact that there are laser swords deminishes all relevence to real science

[Triggered]

How about a rainbow color or a lightsaber that flashes different colors?

Maybe thats a little to much.

Somebody already said that. Woopsy

I agree with the idea and concept but as i have said before Black is not the lack of color it is that gravity is heavier than what light can escape...yes all objects have gravity so it is possible to have a Black light saber and i think a Simatar or kitana shaped blade would nice battle Ax or a great sword...nah that would be to much

But a three piece broken staff (the one used in fearless by jet li) non the less a black body stone (which does existin real life) can be adapted to work and there is something called a black light (i know it purple) but its possible

ok kool you just added something scientific to justify my claims kool i feel special

[Openda Windu]

I like the idea but a black saber wouldn't work. If lightsabers did actually exist, a black one wouldn't work. Black is an absence of light, so when you turned it on, you couldn't see it and you would probably end up killing yourself.

But a white one would work. And i love the idea of the multi colour saber.
Imagine a double bladed on,

4 halfs:
1 half- Blue
1 half- Green
1 half- Yellow
1 half- Silver

[Revans mask]

I think there should be more ds lightsabers, theres really only violet and red now, kinda sux so i'd say yes to black. Silver is really basically white, but i'd like to see a gold lightsaber or like a mixture lightsaber or something. Orange is pretty cool though.

An orange saber? I created one back in kotor 2. You need a yellow crystal and blend it in with different variations of crystals.

How does my saber look like?

The beam is kind of flamemish with orange and yellow


I forgot the other color crystals you need to make orange.

[Lex.mkr]

Erm... there already is an orange color crystal in KotOR II.

[Revans mask]

I made mine flamemish orange. You have to make that kind of lightsaber beam

[Openda Windu]

what crystals did you use then?

[JCRayne]

Here's a thought

Have the colors actually do something. Colored light is pretty but what if say... Yellow was a hotter blade than red and so good for cutting through armor while red was better at deflecting blaster fire? Or Blue is the hottest and thus most likely to burn through victims and wielder so it gave you a boon in Reckless attack but a draw back in defense.
But... And I am just saying... Rainbow! Come on guys! Deck T-3 out in mirrors and hang him from the ships ceiling and find atton a date already! lol

[metalliwars11]

A black lightsaber would be hard to see.
I like the idea of two colour double bladed lightsabers.

or better yet how about a double bladed light saber with a black blade that gives off a white glow and a white blade that gives off a black glow,you know to make them easier to see. that would look so badass

please reply im lonely

why do that when specific crystals are there for such purposes? besides, it can ruin peoples' entertainment if they prefer to use, for example, yellow, but the yellow blade isn't set for the type of combat they're in. sorry, but i think coloured blades should remain colour only



on the topic of crystals, i had an idea. with the Exile's crystal, it was in tune with him/her, and re-focused by Kreia whenever you needed to adjust it. i also believe that the stats were affected by Jedi class and the prestige class, please correct me if i'm wrong.

well, when Kreia says that the crystal is in tune with you, i think it would have helped if it really was, so that the stats affected were based on your choices. that would really make it in tune with "you", so it's your choice what the crystal affects, not the class that sets the effect.

personally, when i play the game, i try to make up in the area that the class i'm playing sucks at (so if i'm a consular, i try to get strength increasing gear to make up for lack of attack modifiers). this would help a lot if the crystal could be changed by the player to suit their style (whether they want to balance out, or stack up in one or two particular area(s))

so what i'm getting at is this: if there's another character-specific crystal in K3 (i know Kreia said it was rare, but still), the stats affected upon refocusing can be like choosing powers/feats/skills/attributes, yadda yadda. so if we want it personalized, we refocus the crystal ourself and we get to choose the stats, or have the "master/teacher" on board refocus it for the "recommended" stats.

Why? Because the Jedi are mental beings, they remove themselves from desire and what not. Preference of a specific color because it's pretty isnt very Jedi of them.
I am just sayin make it a small increase decrease or whatever so that it actually means something when you take up an orange light saber.

that's the thing, isn't it? we're not actually Jedi or Sith, so what does it matter if we like a certain colour? if it's a small increase or decrease, then how can it "mean something" when you use it? just like the lightsaber forms, really. they don't make a whole lot of difference, so they don't exactly mean a whole lot

[metalliwars11]

4 words: two colour double lightsabres

yes both sides need the other to survive. a true master of the force must balence the dark and the light side.therefor to show that you have mastered the force you must have a double bladed,black and white lightsaber and must be intuned w/ your feelings.do not ignore them like the jedi but don't let them control you like the sith.you must balence them out also.are you:speech:?

please reply

I think that what you just said is one of the smartest things I have heard/seen in this entire forum, minus the double sided light-saber bit.....
O and just to set some things that are definitely confused straight, black is not the absence of color, "pure white" is, or "clear" which ever you want to call it, black is one of the 3 colors that the eye perceives (technically) incorrectly, because black is the easiest color to get, because it is the mix of many colors. Put simply, black is the "ERROR" color, so in the Dark, all the colors are not kept apart, by a strong light, and/or single strong color, so it becomes just a mess of black, or to are eyes Error. ever used night vision goggles? Notice how there is usually a refractive green of some kind on the part you see though? It helps organize the other colors as they enter the eye, thus helping you see in the dark, AKA though the color Black.

i could be wrong, but i thought the context of black here was black being an absence of light, not absence of colour. and really, every single colour can be black, since black is a shade, not a colour. make any colour, even something like yellow, dark enough and it'll look black. same goes with white, too, but brighter, not darker

[metalliwars11]

White is the absence of color. Black is the composite of all color. It could be feasible, it would look totally badass, and with what someone else said about adding some intertwining red into it. That as well would be quite exceptional.

either u guys are forgetting or yall havent heard there has already been a black lightsaber.i forget the name of the sith who owned it but he was the leader of a sith movement called ''the dark blade''.and to others who say it wouldnt be feasable because black is the absence of light a lightsaber isnt actually light its pure energy wich means that point is totaly irrelevent.
