You know, I've been surfing these boards for over a month now trying to figure out what I'm going to do on the 22nd when the patch is actually implicated. It seems as though each time I come on here something is changed and important questions are left to ponder. I understand the patch is in testing stages and the fact that it's the biggest patch since release, but we do need to know these important things that are being done so that we don't make a mistake when we are forced to basically create our Jedi from scratch when the patch goes live. Please give us a little more of your time in answering these questions as they are of ut-most importance.
Basically I think one question can sum all of this up and I'm hoping this can be answered before the patch.. Here Goes!!!
What if any of the skills in the Force Skills tree pertain to "Jedi Skills"?
(i.e.) Does "Force Repair" work toward repairing your "Lightsaber"?
(i.e.) If none of the "Force Crafting" skills count towards crafting a lightsaber, why would anyone choose it?
(i.e.) Does the "Force Melee Accuracy" count towards your accuracy with a saber?
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I ask that these questions be promptly answered, as these answers will be a determining factor in how we choose our skills as a Jedi.

Your lightsaber never needs repairs, it's your pearls and crystals that degenerate. They can not be repaired.
All of the other lines of crafting DO work with lightsaber, just not to a great extent since we don't mass produce them.
I don't know if anyone has tested melee accuracy, but they have tested melee speed, which does not assist with your lightsaber.
Most of your questions have been answered a dozen times or more, not by devs who won't be giving out that sort of information, but by players who have been testing.

Your telling me that the other boxes in crafting DO work on lightsaber, however there are at least 10 posts in this same thread of TESTERS saying that it doesn't work. Also, if all of my questions have been answered a dozen times then how come you are only clear on "1" of them? The lightsaber repair was not a question.. it was merely an example.. That's what (i.e.) means..

I have to say though, it's very odd for Lightsabers to require major stats as Cond and OQ, when all other Melee weapons from WS are Shock and OQCond and OQ are usually for ranged weapons, though I guess an argument can be made for the beam of light thing.
On Chilastra, a while ago, there was a spawn of a copper with 999 OQ and Conductivity, and I'm not joking! I knew there'd be a use for it someday that would make it really useful! Do sabers need any copper in any slots?
