The Lightsaber
"This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster. An elegant weapon, for a more civilized age..."

Description
===========
This mod brings the iconic weapon of the Star Wars franchise to the Commonwealth. Ladies and gentlemen, the lightsaber!
Confetti, noisemakers, applause, cat shrieking
Ahem, right. Anyway, as said before, this mod brings the lightsaber into Fallout 4. Now, I know what you're gonna say: "But DMagnuuss, there's ALREADY a lightsaber mod!" Yes, there is, and that's cool, but for me it doesn't hit the right notes, as far as visuals and moddability. Because what I wanted out of a lightsaber mod didn't exist, I went above and beyond to make that happen, and now after 2 months of work, here we are. The mod comes replete with custom meshes, sounds, textures, and even impact effects!
So, here's the skinny: To even start faffing about with the weapon, you need to get your mitts on the hilt. You can either craft it at a Chem station, under the LIGHTSABER category, which requires Science 1 to do so, or venture to Virgil's Lab in the Glowing Sea to get the one he has. Lightsabers are also leveled on Synths and Synth Coursers, as well as Brotherhood of Steel mooks, as well as Raiders and Gunners as of 3. 9. 2, however they're rather rare and won't start appearing until around level 15-20. A unique version of the lightsaber, the Darksaber, also exists (as of 3. 2) and can be found in Sentinel Site Prescott (named just Sentinel Site on the map), located in the Glowing Sea. The Darksaber has its own set of customization options, mostly the same as the standard lightsaber, but the sounds and blade length can't be changed.
Once you've got a working one, you can mod that sucker at a weapon workbench. The lightsaber is extensively customizable, with a choice of not three, not four, but over 20 blade colors!
The colors you can pick from are:
Red
Dark Red
Scarlet
Blue
Blue-White
Dark Blue
Green
Emerald
Cyan
Sky Blue
Orange
Purple
Amethyst
Indigo
Magenta
Pink
Lavender
Yellow
Yellow-Green
Adds the iconic lightsaber to Fallout 4, letting you carve through the Commonwealth with customizable hilts, blade colors, lengths, and sound options. A popular weapon mod with over 8,000 endorsements, ideal for Star Wars fans wanting a melee weapon with deep personalization.
