I'm soon to be unlocking jedi, my question is, how important is Master Lightsaber? Apart from crafting sabers, can say x444 Sabers still compete in damage terms?

Depending on your saber you can still compete but the big thing I got from MLS was the 500 added to my force pool and the +25 to my lightsaber speed. That helped a lot.

The +25 added to your saber speed doesn't work though. It'll decrease mod speed and DPS when you examine your saber, but it's not applied in combat. Attack something with someone else that's LS0404 for example, both use the same attack as the default attack, and you'll see, both of you will hit just as fast, except a slight diff if someone has crystal/pearls that have better speed reduction.

So say MDef, x444 Lightsaber, 3xxx Healer, 24xx enhancer would still have decent damage output?

Very nice damage output, privided you are lucky on tunes.


Enh x4xx is a waste on top of M.Defender though. M.Def has 70 innate armor already (which protects for 52.5%) and adding armor will make you cap at 100 innate armor (which will protect for 60%). I'd spend the skillpoints somewhere else.


Look into getting Healer-4000, and Enh-3002 instead. That'll give you 1500 heals, improved force speed (that makes you hit faster) and you'll get chanel to recup force.

So MDef, x444 Lightsaber, 3xx2 enhancer, 4xxx healer and 1 extra SP in FS would be better idea?

I concur.


I got to MLS, made my 12pt saber then realized that I was tying up all that SP for speed mods that don't seem to work and one decent special (ranged KD).

also does any of the FS crafting stuff affect saber crafting?

Technically yes but you will not get anymore exp points. And ranged kd can make a big difference fighting a bh.

In my opinion, yes because you chose to go master defender and force armor would barely improve your defenses while draining your force as it mitigates damage. Spending 3 million Jedi XP and 20 skillpoints just to gain 8% more mitigation isn't worth it in my opinion.


If you do a lot of PvP, or want better odds against a MBH/MCM, Go Enh-3002 and Healer4040. Force sap will give you a nice extra edge by reducing their action and mind regen. If you're more of a PvE type of player, I'd go LS0424 and Enh-3004. Meditate triples your force regen and helps during long PvE battles but if you like LS-0444, then Enh-3002 will be nice.

No it's not needed...if you have an uber saber. And beyond that it depends what type of role you want to play in combat. My opinion though...don't sell it short...even if it's not necessary...it's not useless either.

I have an above average Saber, but by no means UBER. Right now I am LS 0404 and have recently considered going MLS. I know there are alot of other factors involved but you folks generally think LS 0404 is ok? Something to think about.
