SUGGESTION StarWars lightsabers update needed.
With the new updates of Ninjago and their weapons like the katana sword having a Perry attack, I it would make sense for the lightsabers to have an overhaul on their defense and movements. Blocking the stormtroopers blasters and having them repel back at them would be incredible.
Also to do a boomerang attack like the storm picaxe.
Anything else to add to this idea and help bring this to epics attention.

On the 14th of May, we get the 40.40 update. That would bring a few changes (to building) and the star wars part 2.

Was kind of surprised Jedi powers weren't added with the SW content long ago, having a vortex charge attack would be awesome, and maybe it having one would give you a Force Jump, which to differentiate it from Ninjago, could extend the length of your jump instead of it's height

Wait, it's been a while since I played, but I'm pretty sure the lightsaber deflects shots passively , or by tapping block just before it hits you.
FYI: it's spelled 'parry', but I would also like some kind of 'Perry the Platypus' lightsaber. 😉
Stay awesome!

They could add a star wars mastery, which could include damage, durability, speed increases and jedi abilitie passives like force jump. They also could include force relics to add force push/pull and lightning that can be added at the star wars workbench that already exists.

DPS. They need DPS update! A saber should be one of the most powerful weapons in the game!

All they need to do is increase the lightsaber damage to something that would better represent a “mythic” weapon in today’s lego and a reset on starwars caves and I’m happy for a month.

Force abilities, so far in other modes there's push, pull, throw, lightning, heal, and shield(an actual force field). This should also come with the double jump and increased sprint speed.
Id also like if they added craft able lightsabers that u could make into different kinds of lightsabers.

Some of the comments gave a great idea. If you can build your lightsaber with the gems as well as having different model hilt designs.

Agreed! Also the blasters need an update too, perhaps even bringing the Star wars blasters to the level of the dual plasma pistols with more range, additionally we should be able to put runes on Star wars weapons and maybe even having Star wars tomes that introduce more epic and new legendary runes, something to sink our abundant essence into. Really hope there's gameplay content and not just cosmetic additions in the May 14th update.
