You know, that speed is going to be like 0.4 seconds when you use force speed...

According to the guide it says armor rating works like this: (again, word for word)

Armor Rating: All weapons have an armor rating of either: 0 (none), 1 (light), 2 (medium), or 3 (heavy). All player crafted armor has an armor rating of 1 (light). If the weapon's rating is the same as the armor being hit, there is no change in the damage calculations. However, if the weapon's rating is higher than the armor's rating, it deals an additional 25% damage for each higher level. Therefore, a weapon with an armor rating of 3 attacking a piece of armor of with a rating of 1 would do an additional 25% damage, followed by an additional 25% damage. So, a blast that hits for 100 base damage would do a total of 156 damage after the rating diffirence is calculated (100 x 1.25 x 1.25). On the other hand, if the armor's rating is higher than the weapon's armor rating, the damage taken is reduced by 50% for each higher level. Therefore, a weapon of rating 0, against an armor rating of 2, would do 50% less damage, then an additional 50% less damage. So , a base 100 hit would be reduced to a hit of only 25 (100 x .5 x .5). Remember however, that up to this point, player crafted armor has a standard rating of 1, but creature's can have armor ratings from 0 to 3.

This I thought was interesting.. There is a grammer error in the strategy guide...

.....Therefore, a weapon with an armor rating of 3 attacking a piece of armor of with a rating of 1......

lol, just thought I would point that out. Also, yes I know this guide gets things wrong quite a bit. But they are interesting stats none the less. Looking through with this new knowledge of Armor Rating in my head, I noticed that very few weapons have an armor rating of 1, and even fewer an armor rating of 2. The only weapons with an armor rating of 3 are Imperial Detonator Grenades andT21 Rifles. I know this is alot of number crunching but taking these things into consideration you can see the lightsaber stats listed in the guide are multiplied because of the armor rating of 2. Its also worth noting that it stats all player crafted armor has a rating of 1. So against another player, your lightsaber would crank out 25% more damage. Ouch my head hurts. Anyways, going back to my obbsessive Vibroknuckle example, we see it only has an armor rating of 1. This makes the lightsaber an impressive piece of weapon. But not as powerful as a T21 riflein terms of armor rating, but the T21 rifle's damage a minute (1,917)is considerable less then a lightsabers. Anyways, just more thought. Im going back to staring at a wall.

Hey Hey Jedichris, turn the font down, it makes it look like your angry with me. Anyways, you can belive it or not. I know for a fact this guide gets alot wrong. In fact the guide really is nothing more then an extended manual and its tips are nothing but more common sense. Geez, 2/3 of the book is dedicated to listing the proffesions skills descriptions, the same stuff you can read by holding your mouse over the skill ingame.

Yeah, ummm. Im just posting this stuff for anyone who finds it interesting, if you dont belive it dont get all bitter about it. Cause to be honest, i dont belive it either. Just posting what I found....

Cool, thanks.

I was planning on mastering LS, but I know you don't have to use a 1h to get the 1h tree. I guess I'll grind with Polearm and then get a high gen 1h when i master it.

Do you get a choice as to what type of saber your training saber is?
