Now that Rey is going to be a jedi are going to see her with a double sided lightsaber because she was so sexy using her staff and that's her strength?

No one wants to be reminded of the prequels.

I hope so senpai

She'll have a staff saber. Longer hilt, smaller blades.

Darth Maul and Obi-Wan were the best parts of prequels mang. It's OK to be reminded of the good parts.
>>
>>63874949

I hope so. It would be a shame to give her such a distinctive weapon as her initial staff and then just give her a regular old lightsaber.

>>63875089

I like that idea.
>>
One of them's blue and the other side's green
>>
>>63875089
For what purpose? How would smaller blades be a good idea?
>>
>>63875223
the thing is already a staff, having regular length blades would make the weapon unusable. she need the staff to somehow have lightsaber qualities so short blades is the only way to do this. also, blades on the staff make it more deadly.
>>
>>63875089
That would be pretty fucking baller actually
>>
>>63875223
Because then it would be practical. The double ended lightsaber Maul used had such a short handle that there was no way to make horizontal swings without cutting himself in half. It looked cool but it would be all too easy to beat in a fight.

There had never, NOT EVER, been a battlefield weapon with a short grip and a long blade on each end. There are ones with a spear point on top and bottom (madu) and ones with a dagger on the bottom (Chinese hook sword) but even they were rare. It's just not a practical weapon.

Longer hilt + Longer blades = Fuckyes.jpg

It doesn't take force abilities to tell that something like the light whip or Maul's lightsaber are entirely impractical. The complete absence of such a weapon in 5,000 years of human conflict shows that it just doesn't work.

Faggot, any sane lightsaber user would be able to chop the staff by the hilt if their "sabers" can't clash.

What Maul started with was essentially a long-handled greatsword. A longer version would be like a zweihander with ricasso, so about 5-6 feet long and half handle. That's better than a Maul light saber but still not very practical for one on one duels.

>>
>>63875831
Obviously the "light staff" would have to be un-choppable or at least very tough. Light sabers don't always chop through everything, as seen in ESB when a half-power strike only burned Vader's arm and in ROTJ when Luke's saber bounced off a cable. Even if were cuttable, with effort, it's better than a kill-yourself weapon like Maul's.

I'd love to have a SW film with a good guy using a double bladed saber so hopefully
>>
>>63874949
It would make sense since she's been using that quarterstaff of hers for an extended amount of time but they would have to acknowledge the prequels which they have yet to do. Also we're going back to lightsabers having literal and emotional weight with no intricate fight choreography and the double-bladed lightsaber might not translate

Her saber will be this one
>>
>>63875366
But how would her staff with short light saber blades be any different really? Her horizontal swings will still be worse than if she had a normal light saber. And wouldn't the thing be chopped into bits really easily? And don't give me EU shit about light saber resistant material.

These would be the ultimate lightsabers.

But she will probably use a thicker beam, brown colored, with a smaller beam coming out of the hilt at a 45degree angle, called the shocker.

> she was so sexy using her staff and that's her strength?

Why do man children think women can be strong?
Like, I really think I could beat Ronda Rousey to death.

Think about it, Its always fat numales and beta queers who white knight the "girls can be tough to you know" bullshit.

>>63878041
It would be vastly safer to use. The entire point of a staff is that you can use it as a club by holding it at one end or grip it towards the middle and use both ends. A since ended light spear would be more practical than a double ended one, but the discussion started when the double ended one came up. And unless you can make the shaft hard to cut with a light saber, you end up back at the normal-type sabers anyway.
>>
>>63878988
strength of character not physical strength you bonehead.
Using her staff is her strength because it is sexy is what he meant.

>>63880140
Anon, you took the bait from that poster. No need to continue.
>>
>>63880140
nah, I can just imagine OP being some japomation faggot. "Girls can be tough to guys"

Rey is gay, worst character in TFA.

nignog finn did a much better job.

How about a large curved lightsaber that shoots smaller double sided lightsabers which explode on impact
