Mistglide Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Hi guys, So I've been playing for a while now, but I've actually never stuck with the sith inquisitor class (always ended up going with sith warrior and agent/bounty hunter etc), so I want to give the sith inquisitor a shot for story purposes (no PVP). I'm planning to roll a sith assassin since I heard sith sorcerors are mainly all ranged type and barely any lightsaber skills and I don't really like that. But my question is, can you use a single-bladed lightsaber for the assassin? Will you be heavily nerfed if you use a singleblade in terms of damage, combat ability, skill usage, etc? (Not going to use this character for PVP, just want to know if I can pass through class stories, flashpoint stories, eternal throne, onslaught etc with a single-blade lightsaber assassin, I just don't like double blades lol) Thanks Edited July 5, 2020 by Mistglide wanted to add more detail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frillzx Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 But my question is, can you use a single-bladed lightsaber for the assassin? no. your abilities literally will not work on assassin without a double bladed saber the point of the class is a double bladed saber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strikeuh Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 You can't use traditional single lightsaber however go to cartel maket and preview light pikes. Yeah I know they are not the same but perhaps you will enlike them. They come with different animations so perhaps before you purchase something expensive you should try out cheapest availiable light pike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check the pikes out. Although if push comes to shove, I might just go with the sorc since they carry singles although they're ranged. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZhukovGK Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 It is unfortunate that Assassins are still stuck with the awkward looking saberstaff rather than the traditional single bladed lightsaber. After all these years a little weapon freedom would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Malganus Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Just use a pike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel_Echo Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) Or use double bladed lightsaber kept on your back, not at belt. An example Resolute Guerrilla’s Dualsaber. *especially if you have a feeling that your double-saber is your third leg .

Saregon Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I like double-bladed sabers, but I very much dislike how this game married weapon types to classes allowing 0 choice whatsoever in a game that's supposed to be about choice. Can't choose lightsaber setup as jedi or sith, can't choose pistols or blaster/sniper rifles as bounty hunters (or even melee weaps, techblades/vibroblades/etc.), and so on... I've been playing this game since the beginning with a couple breaks, and I've loved it, but this has always bothered me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
