Initiate's Defense Lightsaber

The Initiate's Defense Lightsaber is a Retired Offset Low Level lightsaber that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Initiate's Defense Lightsaber can only be used at a specific level and up, but if you are higher than the weapon's required level, you can wear it cosmetically in the Outfitter to show its appearance on your character while using a higher-level weapon in your Gear tab for stats.

How to Get: Retired Offset Low Level

This is not a direct screenshot of the Initiate's Defense Lightsaber. The file name is aftermarket-pummelers-offhand-saber-mk-3-3658-thumbnail.png - as far as I can tell it is identical to another weapon, so I re-used the screenshots. There may be small variations that I could not tell apart when comparing thumbnails, previews or item icons.

Sound: Redeemer

All Lightsabers with the Redeemer sound type have the same sound, including the Initiate's Defense Lightsaber. This isn't the official name, and this Lightsaber sound type may be labelled something like weaponmeleelightsaberelite10 in the background of the game.

I do not have a video of the Initiate's Defense Lightsaber, but you can watch a video of the Furious Lightsaber weapon to hear the Redeemer sound type, which is the same as the Initiate's Defense Lightsaber.
