Having played in all of the Jedi systems, Im gonna say no.
What they need to do is get modified speed working =P that will be a quick increase in power right there.

With everything going status quo right now, Yes. It cuts through blasts doors for christs sake. Or have a mod to damage in the LS tree.
If they dont want to add it, then they should make it so AB doesnt work on LS and up the damage say through damage mods like the MTK line to unarmed.
I have the best components for a saber but it does max 250 damage without pearsl. If I get loucky and get pearls to add into a 4th gen saber more than likely ill get the crap ones that add 20 to 40 damage (mean of 30). creating a saber with the best components to craft and 4 lucky pearl drops after 2 years of trying to get them at the current spawn rate without being forced to buy them with a max damage of a whopping 370 damage. Give me a D18 for christs sakes!
I say yes, BUT, and this is a big but, you guys would have to, upon death, lose xp at the amount of double what you lose now ALONG WITH skill box loss when you lose a certain amount of xp. Saber TEF as well. Perma-death would be reserved for masters and ONLY masters. They would then be a blue glowie for 1 month then be allowed to start the grind back up the Jedi tree.
Just remember, this is an MMO and actual people play this game. There needs to be responsibility with power.

I vote no and here's why.
Saber damage kept as energy balances the game. The arguement that it should cut through anything is really not valid. A rifleman or anyone can say the same thing about thier shots. Example: Advanced Critical Shot, or Improved Head hit, etc. If any of these hits actually land? guess what, you're going down and not getting up.
The day you we get Light saber damage, will be the day that a we'll start having CDEF sabers....
Actually, we do have an equivalentto CDEF sabers in the game. Anyone start their Jedi career with a training saber? One color crystal, no pears or clear crystal? Those things make CDEF rifles look good.
All I know for sure is, they need to do something to improve the picture for lightsaber damage. I tried to stock up on crystals before I made Padawan, but after all that, I still have a saber with high force cost and mediocre damage. The fact that people even consider going Rifleman/Jedi Defender only illustrates the magnitude of the problem.
By the way, I stumbled across a spawn of Cortosis carbonate ore a couple months back with my alt. Mediocre stats, but it was Cortosis. Hmmmmmmmmmmm..................
