"Description" (“Darth Maul's Double-Sided Laser Sword Darth Maul's Double-sided Lightsaber ") - a meme based on a series of images of the character Star Wars

Darth Maul and his laser sword. There are many different variations and formats of use.

Origin The scene from which the image is taken was shown in the film Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

. In this scene, the film's antagonist, Darth Maul, reveals to the Jedi and the audience that his sword actually has two sides. Since then, the scene has been parodied in various ways. One of the most famous versions - (Star Warrior Guy).

Star Wars Kid One of the formats created based on the scene originated in mid-2018 by Reddit user Thetrashman754, where an image from the scene became a reference to a scene from the film "".

Bohemian Rhapsody

The most popular meme format appeared in March 2019, thanks to Reddit user Tristan_Culbert, and quickly became very popular. It consists of placing text on each side of the laser sword to indicate that they are related or, conversely, contradict each other.

Meaning

The early meme format focused on references to other memes. The most common format first presents the text on one side of the sword as a good thing, and then presents the text on the second side of the sword as a negative surprise in direct relation to the content of the text on the first side.

For example, it can be used to show that the text on the first side of a laser sword has a hidden purpose or surprise attached to it.




Examples

After the release of the first trailer for the game, many assumed that at some point the main character would be able to repair the found Jedi weapons and receive a double-bladed lightsaber, like Darth Maul. Their guesses were confirmed - Cal can indeed get a double lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but for this it is necessary to perform several not entirely obvious actions.

How to get a double-edged lightsaber

Bogano

  • You can find an upgrade for your lightsaber in the Bogano location. However, before you can do this, you will need to get your hands on two things:
  • Force Push is one of the main character's skills.

Only with these abilities can you open the way to the desired room. So, go to the location shown in the screenshot above and use Force Pull to create a bridge. Next, follow the road forward to the cave. Enter it and start climbing up the vines.

Continue up and about halfway up you will notice a room that you will need the Droid Adapter Probe to access. Open the door, go inside and find a workbench here. Interact with him so that the main character can repair his lightsaber. As a result, he will have two blades instead of one. You can also find a Force Essense in this room.


Dathomir

A double-bladed lightsaber can also be found on Dathomir. Once on the planet, head to the main island called Strangled Rocks. We explore the location and find the way to another tier, leading to the Upper Strangled Rocks. Then we find ourselves in the Brother's Bastion. Having reached the checkpoint, we go up the hill, deal with the enemies and turn right.


We follow the path forward until we find ourselves in a new room. We pass through it, go up the stairs on the opposite side and find ourselves in the next room. Here we turn left, and then go left again. We fight off the archers' shots, go up to where they just stood, and then continue along the road.


Next we will need to explore the lower level with a huge spider. We jump down, deal with the opponents and exit the door, moving to the left. Ahead we will see a huge temple, to get into which you need to make a jump. However, we don’t do this, we go down the slope and turn left. Below we notice a workbench with which we can make a new lightsaber.

Lightsabers are weapons of the Jedi and Sith, which are suitable for both combat and rituals. They are used only by those warriors who are endowed with concentration, agility and harmony with the power of light or darkness. While playing, you will come across several types of such swords. Read more about them below.

Single blade lightsaber

A single-bladed lightsaber is available to Cal Curtis from the very beginning of the game. The hero will use it for the first time on the Brakka plant, when the second and ninth sisters arrive there. In the future, you will find parts for these weapons and modify them.

Double lightsaber

A double-bladed lightsaber has two blades and a hilt in the middle. It is well suited for battles with numerous opponents. In addition, at the right time, you can remove one blade to turn the double sword into a regular one.

How to get a double lightsaber

The double-edged sword can be obtained on the planet Dathomir. Once you arrive there, go to the Soulful Rocks location and explore it to find a passage to the upper level. From there you will be taken to Brother's Bastion. Through it you can go to the building in which there is a workbench for creating the weapons you need. The screenshot below shows its location.

Additionally, the Double Blade Sword can be obtained from the Abandoned Workshop during your second visit to Planet Bogdano. But to get to the workbench, you will need the Force Draw skill.

Two swords

Cal Kestis can wield two swords at once, one in each hand. This will become available in the story, towards the end of the game. To avoid spoilers, we will not talk about the details.

Most readers - except perhaps the youngest - first became acquainted with this weapon, I think, on the pages of “It’s Hard to Be a God.” And that’s why so many people have the idea that one should wield a two-handed sword “in a pompous way”, describing wide circles and rustling ominously, and even so that the length is over 2 meters, and the weight is over 20 kg. With the greatest respect for the baron and his co-creators, we will still try to separate the flies from the cutlets, and the sword from the helicopter.

With the release of the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the Respawn Entertainment studio made a real gift for all Star Wars fans. For the first time since the legendary KotOR duology, we have the opportunity to become a real Jedi, fight face to face against imperial troops, use the force and, of course, acquire a personal lightsaber, customizing it to your liking. Therefore, we dedicate this Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order guide entirely to the main symbol of Star Wars - the lightsaber and will tell you how to improve it, how to change the color of the blade and even get a double-sided sword.

The main character of the game, Cal Kestis, receives his first lightsaber from his mentor who suddenly died, placing the building on the young man’s shoulders to revive the Jedi Order. Already in the first hours of the game, you will learn how to operate a plasma saber and will be able to find the first workbench on the ship, which will be useful for modifying your main weapon.

The lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order can be improved in five ways at once, from the color of the blade to the material from which the switch is made. But we’ll immediately answer that any of the modifications is intended only to change the appearance of the sword; do not count on any damage amplifiers. Only many hours of practice will make the sword in your hands a truly deadly weapon. You shouldn’t forget about leveling up your skills either.


To find upgrades for your lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, you will have to carefully explore the game world and find dozens of chests that are scattered in abundance across the planets. At the same time, do not forget that in the lower left corner of the screen, when you open the map, you can see information about the number of unopened chests in the location.

How to unlock new lightsaber colors

Early on in the game, Cal's sword can glow in three colors: blue, green, and orange for those who pre-ordered Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. But don't worry, these are not all the options for customizing your weapon. Due to some plot circumstances that we will not reveal, Cal will have to assemble a new lightsaber and here your sense of beauty will be able to run wild.

Depending on the type of kyber crystal, a lightsaber can have the following colors:

  • Green
  • Blue
  • Orange
  • Violet
  • Yellow
  • Indigo
  • Cyan (sea green)
  • Magenta (purple-red)

Where to find a double-bladed lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Now let's move on to Darth Maul's favorite weapon - the double-edged sword. With due diligence, it can be found within the first 5 hours of the game. First, you have to go to the planet Dathomir and explore the “Strangled Rocks” location. We warn you right away - the sand planet will not welcome you with open arms and at the initial levels the opponents may even seem too strong.

Follow the quest sign and in the “Brother’s Bastion” location you will come across a mysterious stranger in a black robe. After talking with him, go down the path on the left until you find the entrance to the cave (see the exact location of the cave in the screenshot below). Go a little further and congratulations, you've found a double-edged sword in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.


There is another option to get the modification - go to the planet Bogano. But keep in mind that in the initial stages you simply will not be able to open access to a double-sided sword in the location, since to complete certain sections you will need to learn the “Force Draw” skill.

No matter how much we would like it, a double-sided sword cannot be called an ultimate weapon. In fact, its damage is even lower than that of a standard blade. However, this disadvantage is more than compensated for by more effective reflection of stormtrooper shots and sweeping strikes, which are useful for chopping up numerous enemy squads. You can activate the double sword at the moment when Cal has to assemble a new blade in the middle of the story campaign.

This is where we will finish our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order guide on lightsabers, but we regret to say that Respawn Entertainment did not provide the ability to fencing with two blades at once. Although during a long combo, the double-sided sword sometimes splits into two separate ones, and thank you for that.
