The Seven Forms of lightsaber combat

[Laozi]

Haven't any of you guy seen Legend of the Drunken Master or any of those badass kung fu flix

[Nur Ab Sal]

I prefer to enjoy the fighting than overanalyzing it. I think that it reduces the fun.

 

You aren't true fan of Vapaad then. Shoo! Shoo!

[Planar Jedi]

Vaapad or no Vapaad means nothing to me. I want real power. Tell us about the force forms!!!!!

There is the Dark Side

and there are the loosers who believe in Light Side.

[Planar Jedi]

There is no passion, there is serenity.

There is no dark side there is lightside.

There is no xbox there is only PC

form 1: Basic sword techniques. Blocks, thrusts, swipes, parries. Learned by all young padawan in training.

 

form 2: Ancient and efficient fighting style from the old republic. Created specifically for use in lightsaber duels. Not used by the jedi order in the time of the films due to the fact that their known enemies did not wield lightsabers. Used by Count Duku.

 

form 3: Extreme defensive stance. Based on exercises in deflecting blaster fire with the lightsaber. Masters of this form can be all but impossible to kill, but may have trouble dispatching their enemy as well. Used by Obi-wan.

 

form 4: Acrobatic and speed based style. Lightening fast movements coupled with atheletic maneuvers allow for quick strikes and make the practisioner a moving target that is hard to strike. Used by Qui-gon, mastered by Yoda.

 

form 5: For those who feel that form 3 does not provide enough offense. Based on exercises in which the jedi deflects blaster bolts so that they return to strike the person who fired them. A style that uses broad and powerful strokes to overpower the opponent. Used by Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker.

 

form 6: The diplomats form. Uses elements of forms 1, 3, 4, and 5. This is the style used by most jedi during the time of the movies. It incorporates techniques from many of the other styles but mastery of none of them. A very defensive style used by peace keepers. It is considered to be the weakest lightsaber style.

 

form 7: Very rare and most deadly lightsaber technique. Is a combanation of styles 4 and 5. Uses extremely powerful strokes at unpredictable angles and speeds to confuse and overpower enemies. Dangerous for the inexperienced because it feeds off of emotions and can easily lead to the dark side. Practiced by Mace Windu.

[DSLuke]

You can't define light if you haven't felt the darkness first.

 

PS to Planar Jedi

there is no gauros there is vazelos..lol

[Planar Jedi]

Indeed there is. Fa tous fame to savato kai ua to gkremisoume to Karaiskaki

Im an LS in every game, but so help me....that has inspired me to write my own version:

 

Peace(PC) is a lie, there is only passion. (For my early XBOX version!)

Through passion(of playing it early), I gain strength(to ignore hardcore PC fanatics).

Through strength, I gain victory.

Through victory my chains are broken.

KOTOR II:The Sith Lords set me free.

 

I really don't have some fanboy mindset for either side.(Really.) But I do like my XBOX(almost as much as my PC), and I get tired of this constant debate. Both have good and bad points. Let it be.

[Planar Jedi]

What are you talking about? Are you drunk or something?

[DarthDoGooder]

What do you mean? I took that straight from one of your posts one the previous page. It isnt there anymore, but I swear, by God, that it was there.

 

I was just making a reply. Drunk? Never. Eccentric? Maybe.

 

EDIT:Checked again, and found it this time. You took some sayings and altered them toward PC, I did the same for XBOX. Then I went on to say that Im not a fanboy, or anything, and I simply believe that PC AND XBOX are good.

[Planar Jedi]

I talk about you being neutral while the xbox viciously attacks the PC Side

[DarthDoGooder]

Everyone is viciously attacking each other. Neutral? The way of a Jedi. Disagreements should be solved in a calm, logical manner. Don't give in to passion. Emotion = bad.

[Planar Jedi]

You have to use logic, but that does not mean you have to be neutral. A jedi seeks to preserve peace, not to remain neutral

[Barzarel]

Vapaad was a side-branch of Juyo developed by Mace Windu.  So you can't actually learn Vapaad, as it hasn't been invented yet in TSL, but you can learn its 'mother-form' - Juyo.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

They say Juyo is one of the styles that gonna be in the game in one of the previews, so i guess that one is certain.

Nur, good link. Missed while searching theforce.net forums for info.

[Ronil Organ]

And the *drunken* style uses sometimes awkward, random moves to defeat an opponents defense. Kinda like that

 

They say Vapaad is the most powerful, but it seems it is defeated by Anakin's VI style, so whos kung fu is better?

Those movies sucked, and didn't one of the bros. get a sex change?

[DSLuke]

Really??

[Laozi]

Thats what my friend Skylar told me

[Stargate: 2000]

Remaining 4 forms are force forms, and have nothing common with the lightsaber.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

"There are 11 Lightsaber forms to learn (though you can only learn 7 total), which allow you to choose the type of defense and offense to match the situation. There are forms to handle being surrounded by opponents, for taking on foes with blasters, and even a Lightsaber form to handle Jedi."

 

It doesn't say 11 forms total it says 11 LIGHTSABER forms, whether its right or wrong we wont know until we play the game. But from the way ut sounds there, there will be 15 forms total (11 Lightsaber forms and 4 force forms).

 

Also for those who are interested all the lightsaber forms which can be learned in the game are open to any type of saber and also to multiple sabers as well.

 

The type or number of sabers you are using doesn't have any effect on lightsaber forms.

Read my post on the first page:

In KOTOR II, you can learn up to six of the seven Jedi Lightsaber Forms.

 

These Lightsaber Forms are the domain of the Sentinels and Guardians. Consulars learn the most basic ones, but then study Force Forms, which affect how they utilize their Force Powers.
