Purple or Pink?


Recommended Posts

Well folks I'll admit that I figured I'd NEVER like pink saber.....well I was wrong :D

 

I am playing through for some testing and I decided used a custom pink saber I did. I was amazed at how it really fit the pink haired exile I was playing with so I kept it and actually made it a mod. Go Figure :D

 

 

EDIT: Sorry didn't see your question up there ;) K was used for black since B could also stand for blue and they thought that would confuse people :D so they picked black's last letter ;)

It looks like a shade of Magenta to me.

 

Anyways, Yoda has the ability to change the length of his saber. Maybe Mace has the ability to slightly change the color of his saber?

 

The length of the saber can be made perfect to the jedi by working on your crystal,making it bigger,smaller..And you can only change the color of your lightsaber with color crystals..But it could be that he had an unique crystal with that magenta color..

Color crystals for lightsabers is utter schlock! They were invented by West End Games for the Star Wars RPG because of the pics in the Tales of the Jedi Comics. That, along with some other minor technical mistakes they made, has polluted many views, and FWIU has even influenced some EU writers as well.

 

A lightsaber uses a crystal to regulate the flow of energy to it's system from the power cell, there are no other crystals in one. (You can look at any cut out saber pic or sketch, 1990's and before anyway, and there is only a power regulation crystal.)

 

A lightsaber is likely a negatively charged plasma suspended in an electromagnetic field, the various gasses used allows for the differing colors... this is why they do burn style damage, seem to have weight, cast a shadow, are not a very good light source, and have some resistance at the point of impact (glancing blows are possible, Luke does when he hits Vaders arm, you can pull blows with a saber, like Dooku does, and why Qui-Gon had to struggle a little on the TF Blast door). Provided the saber maker had installed a control knob, the blades length should be changeable on the fly, adjusting the length of the EM field, and would only be limited by the hilt's power source.

 

Sorry Smaug, not coming down on you with all this, just the whole idea of color crystals for sabers makes me want to :barf:

Yoda had the abilty to make his lightsaber longer or shorter by accessing a knob on his hilt. It had nothing to do with the size of his crystal.
