  • There are hundreds of lightsaber color crystals available in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Some crystal colors are traditional, while others are cosmetic options only found in the game and not in any other Star Wars lore. In this video we’ll be going over my top ten favorite types of color crystals in the game ranging from the easy to come by to the wildly rare in SWTOR.

    This is one of the many things I love about SWTOR. The customization of saber crystals is just something I've always wanted in Star Wars games. I mean, you get to do it in Jedi Academy, The Force Unleashed, the KOTOR games and even Jedi: Fallen Order but none of them are nearly as customizable as SWTOR's.

      @Omar Beydoun It's not, though. I would prefer if they had more than just combat as a means of getting through quests but there's only so much you can do with an MMORPG's questing system. The story, the graphics/art style and the gameplay of SWTOR are fantastic. The game's only real flaw is its business model, which is far too restrictive to be properly competitive with other F2P MMOs.

    It's a really cool concept considering that even if it was just a cosmetic in the game, you can categorize player by these lightsaber crystals they posses. You can differentiate a beginner or just simplistic, a rare hunter, an artisan, a pvp ranker and a pvp high ranker.
    In starwars lore though, instead of having a variety of colors with thier lighsaber. A jedi can be distinguished based on thier hilt designs. Like how mace windu decided to melt his medal to be embedded in his lightsaber.

    I personally love the inclusion of the Pink-Red Crystal in this game. It’s a red saber color that much more resembles the deep red color Vader’s saber has on it in the Original Trilogy. Kylo Ren seems to also wield a similar shade of red, though a lot of promotional stuff have the color as more of a blood red or standard red saber. But I really love that pink red. Such a deep color.

    So different then when the game launched.
    Me and my guild spent hours upon hours farming special crystal colours. including the black and blue, black and red, and the elusive white colour crystal, and i still got the orange and black pre order crystal.
    But its different now, theres not much fulfillment buying crystals off the GTN

      EDIT: Nevermind, just finished watching the video, guess I didn't get my crystal from an Op but from the Rakghoul event thingy. Didn't remember ever finishing it but oh well.

    After I watched this video, I was keen to get a fancy color crystal for my Sith Juggernaut. The couple of weeks later, a Sovereign Gold and Blue Color Crystal was available on the GTN. Looking good and sporting a +41 to Crit, I snatched it up. What I wanted to mention was that not only was this a beauty to behold when drawn, but, when I used my Saber Throw skill, the whirling colors of this fancy crystal were breathtaking! 😎

    I remember this one mission about the padawan lovers in Tython, if you decided to help them by not snitching on with the Jedi master that gave you the mission you got a yellow lightsaber with a smaller chance of the quest dropping an orange or an alternate yellow which I think was yellow with orange, white center.
    I think I had my DPS knight armed with one of his Sabers in that color, the other one being purple.

      ​@@Kronosxviii1 Not sure if it's the current canon, but at one point it was canon that the only way to get a red crystal, was to take a blue or green one, and corrupt it with pain and hate. In one of the comics Vader (after killing a Jedi and taking his lightsaber) took a crystal to a dark side cave on mustafar, where he then poured his hate and pain into the crystal to corrupt it (there was also a hallucination where he turned to the light side and killed Sheev, but that's not related). I believe to get a white crystal you basically need to undo the corruption, probably by filling it with light side energy, but that won't give back the original colour, but instead will make it white.
      The white crystal part is just what I remember hearing, so take that with a grain of salt

More often than not, after hearing the information you've shared, I must admit to a need to visit with all of the Jedi in our guild. Masters, Knights, Padawans and Initiates. As I will do again.

    9. Advanced Fire Orange Evercerating Crystal (light orange core, bright yellow outline)

  • @idnewton

    3:51 - Yes, I remember this. I think it was much sooner than a year after launch -- a player named Catch, who I believe was a Sith Assassin, had a double-bladed white lightsaber and was parading it around the imperial fleet. Like you said, he got banned and the devs mentioned it was an exploit and not something players would normally stumble across. But that's pretty vague, and since I enjoy finding exploits in games, I was worried I'd accidentally perform this. They said it's something you can't stumble across by accident, but maybe you could consider all exploits as "intentional". This uncertainty is what caused me to seek out the truth of what happened.
    The devs never explained the full story, like you said. However, the rest of the story actually did make its way around. This "exploit" wasn't a mere in-game glitch. Nope, what this guy did was more of a psy-op than anything else. He knew the white crystal existed in the game, maybe because of datamined information or maybe because he was part of beta, I don't remember. In any case, he complained to customer support that he had accidentally deleted his white crystal, so they returned it to him. Of course, the 'catch' (pun intended) is that he never had it to begin with.

It was a gift from someone in the first guild I was ever in on my Jedi consular. She is 100% light side but the crystal in her saber has a black core and dark purple aura. I love the crystal color and will continue to use it, though you would think it was a dark side user welding it.

    lemme introduce you to the Star Wars EU lore, red can be either synthetic or corrupted crystal(any color of crystal that were subdued to the will of a dark jedi by using the dark side to crush the crystal's will) and white is actually the reverse thing. It CAN be created by infusing a once corrupted crystal with light side, kinda like reviving it and purging the dark side from the crystal, which will take the silver/white color if the purge is succesful. Ahsoka Tano likely got her silver blade by this mean
