Traditional Colors<\/h2>\n<p>Although there are quite a few lightsaber colors that are traditionally used by Jedi, in Old Republic lore, only three colors have special meanings attached to them.<\/p>\n<p>Yellow lightsabers were wielded by Jedi Sentinels who focus less on combat, and more on other skills and abilities. Green lightsabers were wielded by Jedi Consulars who mediate between other groups, using their powers to end conflict and preserve peace. Blue lightsabers were wielded by Jedi Guardians who focus more on combat training and the use of the lightsaber. Something really important to note is that even in lore, a <i>Jedi is not restricted to a single color, rather, that color is a badge of pride for the Jedi Path it signifies.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/yellow.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tYellow Color Crystal<i> - Crafting, Artifice Level 160, or GTN<\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/green.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tGreen Color Crystal<i> - Crafting, Artifice Level 240, or GTN<\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/blue.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tBlue Color Crystal<i> - Crafting, Artifice Level 1, or GTN<\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<p>What&#8217;s interesting is that especially in the lore introduced by the Old Republic comics is that Jedi weren&#8217;t the only wielders of these colors &#8211; Fallen Jedi were also just as likely to use their previous weapon as they were to trade it in for one more attuned to the dark side.

This pink crystal has been available in the game as a secret to uncover for adventurous players who were willing to go on a treasure hunt and craft it from a rare schematic. Unfortunately, although the treasure hunt is still available, the crafting schematic no longer requires the special item from the treasure hunt to craft the magenta crystal. All three of these unusual colors, purple, cyan and magenta, can all be earned though the Eternal Championship and can sometimes be bought from other players on the GTN. If you&#8217;re trying to craft the magenta crystal, you may be able to get the schematic from [[Gargath on Hoth, The Nightmare Pilgrim on Voss and random mobs in The Black Hole area of Corellia.]]\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/magenta.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tMagenta Color Crystal<i> - Eternal Championship, costs 2 Eternal Championship Trophies<\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<h2>8. White Core<\/h2>\n<p>This is where we start diving in to the cosmetic options, most of which only exist in the Old Republic as cosmetic options to give players more choices when it comes to their character appearance. I&#8217;ll start you off slow with some sabers that have a traditional white core, but have a colored corona not seen in any movie. Some of my personal favorites are Amethyst, a lighter alternative to purple, Mint green, a very soft blue-green color, Farmhand Blue, a lighter blue saber color that&#8217;s meant to be closer to the lightsaber color Luke is given in the first Star Wars movie, and Desert green, which is meant to be similar color to Luke&#8217;s saber after he loses his first one.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/amethyst.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tAmethyst Color Crystal<i> -

There had been rumors of a white crystal in the game about a year after its launch, long before it was\u00a0 released in the cartel market. These rumours turned out to be true, but with a shocking twist &#8211; a player had managed to obtain a white crystal, but not through a legitimate means! Somehow, through &#8216;intentional and deliberate&#8217; manipulation, the player had gotten a white crystal when it was not meant to be available to players. The developers said was not an &#8216;easy exploit&#8217;, and not something the average player might &#8216;stumble upon&#8217;. While we&#8217;ll never find out the full story, the white crystal is now available to all players, though it will cost them a pretty penny.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/white.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tWhite Color Crystal<i> - Cartel Market or GTN<\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<h2>7.

Crafted Special Crystals<\/h2>\n<p>Not all of these vibrantly colorful crystals are from the Cartel Market. Crafters who have taken the Artifice crew skill will also unlock some unusual color crystals as they level up in Artifice. At Artifice level 350, you&#8217;ll unlock the White-Yellow-Orange Crystal and White-Purple-Blue Crystal, at 500, you&#8217;ll unlock the Fire Red crystal schematic, and at 550 you&#8217;ll unlock the Purple Core crystal schematic. Although the earlier crystals you can craft are fairly simple, these later Artifice crystals are on par with other expensive Cartel Market crystals!<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/white-yellow-orange.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tWhite-Yellow-Orange Color Crystal<i> -

Rakghoul<\/h2>\n<p>There&#8217;s really only one crystal in the game that has a unique way of earning it. The Black-Green crystal can be exclusively earned through the Rakghoul Reputation track. The Rakghoul event is a re-occurring plague, and once you&#8217;ve earned 4 Rakghoul DNA Canisters you&#8217;ll be able to purchase a Black-Green crystal. Speaking of veteran players, for those of you who&#8217;ve been playing a long time and remember there was a special black-green crystal for players who purchased the awesome but expensive Old Republic Razer Peripherals. I didn&#8217;t know this until recently but that crystal is actually slightly different than the black-green version from the Rakghoul event!<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.blog-crystal {\n\tbackground-color:#fff;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n\tpadding: 10px;\n\ttext-align:center;\n\twidth:550px;\n\tborder-radius:5px;\n\tmargin:0 auto;\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption{\n    display: block;\n    background-color: #fff;\n    color: #000;\n\n}\n.blog-crystal figcaption a{\n\tcolor:#000;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-crystal{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n\n.blog-crystal .image-gallery-preview{\n\tmax-height:400px;\n}\n.blog-info{\n\tcolor:#202020;\n\tborder: 1px silver solid;\n    padding:6px;\n    display:inline-block;\n    border-radius:5px;\n    background-color:#fff;\n    margin-top:-40px;\n}\n\n.blog-info img {\n    height: 20px;\n}\n\n.figure-holder{\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class='figure-holder'>\n\t\t<figure class='blog-crystal'><img src='\/armor\/star-wars-the-old-republic\/lightsaber-crystals\/black-green.jpg' alt=' Armor Set' class='image-gallery-preview'>\n\t  \t\t<figcaption>\n\t  \t\t\tBlack-Green Color Crystal<i> - <\/i>\n\t  \t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<h2>2.
