    canon both eu and disney can be varry consistent. it just depends on how much you remember or take time enough to look into . If your just in it for vibes then it doesnt matter as much but if u look for it theres answer for mostly everything

    Regular beings can use a lightsaber--its a tool. Its more that a jedi and their lightsaber have a connection.

    You all need to watch Tales of the Jedi before you watch the final season. They're little shorts that give you some extra context for the final season and they add to the story brilliantly

        Yep, spoilers aplenty. It's kind of telling since Tales of the Jedi was released after season 7. Definitely agree in holding off.

    This is my favorite arc. I cant explain it, but I love the starts of things, the 1st Harry Potter movie is my favorite for the same reason.

    To Eric's Question about lightsabers and non Jedi: The force resides in all living things in the star wars galaxy, just to varying degrees. What sets the Jedi apart is they are more in tune with it to the point they can use it to effect the world around them. So its possible that the amount of force in any person is enough to just RUN a lightsaber, but to properly Weild it and by channeling the force through it, that's unique to force users like jedi.

    It would explain why non force users like Finn seem to be such Ass when using it compared to a force sensitive like Rey , even though they both had zero Lightsaber training when fighting Kylo in force awakens.

    For the saber crystal and Jedi being a focus for the force the explanation behind that is basically like what Boom was saying but with a bit more context. Anyone can pick up and turn on a lightsaber cause the blade is just energy being focused through the blade BUT because both a Jedi and the crystal are conduits for the force that means when a Jedi uses one, more specifically the one with the crystal that chooses them, the blade becomes like a literal extension of themselves. They will almost never hit themselves with it cause you almost never hit yourself with your own fist because your brain and muscles can feel exactly where it is at all times. That’s why Jedi and sith have an advantage with sabers and are considered the only real proficient practitioners of lightsaber combat

      The blade is energy being focused through the crystal* don’t see a way to edit my comment so this’ll have to do. Also most people accidentally cut themselves with lightsabers cause the actual blade is weightless so it’s like swinging around a jump rope handle and trying to never aim the upper end at yourself. This is another reason Jedi, who can feel the blade as an extension, are generally the only ones using sabers

        It's weightless, but still creates a rotational, almost gyroscopic effect. Hence the blade feels 'heavy' or otherwise unwieldy. It's because it's almost like a circuit, plasma is constantly being emitted upwards, then circled around in a loop back to the handle.

        That's why they're hard to wield. Or at least as I understand it.

    No the Sith didn't think it was "dishonourable" the Sith straight up thought it was a bitch move, a sith lord viewed killing a jedi with that method as proof you weren't a true warrior, that you couldn't beat a jedi through pure power and Force alone.

    The first blades used by the Jedi were actual blades. The Jedi would use the Force while forging them to strengthen the blade, and a crystal would be placed into the hilt. Apparently the blade would glow with a ghostly light when a Jedi wielded it, but the blade itself was a traditional metal blade. The energy blade isn’t how it started.

    Even the Sith don't do the lightsaber turn off thing yes. They just see it as a I have no balls so I'll do this type shit. Nobody wants to do it. It's dishonora le and cowardly in every Jedi and Siths eyes. Also it just lends a risk that when they do it the other person has a better chance to get at you. Lemme just say, people do such a bad job at explaining the lore sometimes.

    I love watching Ahsoka’s growth from her first day as Anakin’s padawan. She has been my favorite Star Wars character since Clone Wars initially aired.

    In Legends it explains that Lightsabers used to need battery packs, so you could just cut the cord on it and turn off the saber

    I read somewhere that wookies who are force sensitive are crazy rare. That one wookie youngling was legit a one in a million or one in a billion chance or something.

      Yeah. Some other crazy rare species to have force sensitivity are Hutts, Nikto, Tusken Raiders, and Kaminoans. Asharad Hett was one of my favorites

    The clip Ruff was talking about requires context: the Sith had two lightsabers, one being the main saber and the other a smaller one. And in the clip one of his lightsabers was occupied with the Jedi's, but he used the other saber to stab them. You can see it in the full scene

    I've heard the sith view that lightsaber tactic as cowardly rather than dishonorable somewhere
