Which would you rather wield?

Which would you rather wield?
You've got the lightsaber staff.(ex Darth Mauls saber)
Dual lightsabers (fighting with 2 sabers)
Dual phase lightsaber.(this one is only mentioned in the books. It's used by Corran Horn and one other person that I can't think of the name of at the moment. Basicly it's a lightsaber with 2 focusing crystals instead of one and what you can do with it is in midfight you can change the length of the blade from long to short, short to long or anywhere inbetween)
One regular boring old saber.
Or something else I haven't mentioned I know there is one other kind at least but I can't think of the name of it.

listen kid, i've been around this galaxy long enough to know nothing beats a good blaster by your side...

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I was wondering where that option was.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah if you want to get wasted by your own blaster shot. lol.

is a nuke an option?

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Old School. Just one needed.

there's no way anyone could a lightsaber staff (like darth maul's) without cutting their own legs off or torso clean in half.

dgiaimoOG 2003 ·

Sure they could. You don't see people smacking themselves with bos all the time do you?

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

That's actually what I was thinking but you beat me to it. lol

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

anytime I've ever seen someone in a movie use a long staff to fight, they have:

1) handled the entire length of it.

2) used parts of their body against the bow for leverage.

Comparing a dual ended light-saber(ala darth maul) to a long staff is stupid. a better analogy would be a long, razor sharp, double-bladed sword with the handle in the middle. And even then you can hit yourself (with the broad side of the blade) and not hurt yourself.

I've never seen anyone handle such a weapon.

perrin perrinOG 2004 stupid ·

Dude it's science fiction so it doesn't matter what you've seen in real life it's a fantasy world.

iwz iwz ·

no dude, star wars is real man. *slap*

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Blasphemy! Just because it's in a galaxy far far away does not mean that it isn't real!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

yeah, PERRIN, just becasuse you close your eyes, doesn't mean galaxies far far away cease to exist! freakin' existentialists.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

lol man you guys need help I thought I was bad. :-P

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

ohhhh, i'm pulling my light saber on you for that one

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Wow my first mod. I'm so proud. To bad it's marked stupid. lol

brothermanOG 2004 ·

Well you saw Darth Maul handle one silly.

iwz iwz ·

well, that's why only those skilled in the force use lightsabers.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

yeah, you shouldn't be allowed to own a lightsaber, unless you can use it sucessfully blind folded

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

That would makie for an interesting test to see if you should own one.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003 ·

or while being tickled

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

That's even better. lol.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 stupid ·

there's only one saber that i wield. and weild it right i do.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Repeat after me inappropriate comment

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

if your mind isn't pure yes. if not.. it's tottally appropriate.. i'm talking about a short red lightsaber.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yes but this is you we are talking about so it must not be meant to be pure and we all know it.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

i said dual, but i'd end up just slicing off my leg.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Actually, the other guy who had the light saber that could change lengths had it so it could be three different lengths. He was actually being taught by an ancient sith and was turning sith himself before he was destroyed by the power.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah he could set it between short medium and long. That was in the Jedi search trilogy. Not as good as Zahn's but pretty good.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Yeah, I enjoy that trilogy a lot! Good stuff there.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah great series of books. There are some really cool characters in their that I really liked. OOOHHH I just thought of a new thread I'm going to make. hehe. I'm such a star wars geek. lol.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

definitely what you refer to as the boring light saber, it's not boring! It's the original thing! Luke Skywalker is my idol, and i'm going to be just like him. Oh yes, green please.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

lol. It is in comparison with the other lightsabers. Though I do understand what your saying. :-P

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

yeah, but even if you just think of the light saber....its the whole concept behind it. It's the first one...the original has gotta be the best.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Ah. Now I really do understand. Yes it is the original. It's where it all started. Without that there would be none of the others.
I see said the blind man.
