Lightsaber blocking There are problems with lightsabers when blocking blaster bolts and other lightsaber attacks. This is not only the star wars accurate option, but this change would make lightsaber combat less about button mashing, and more focused on patience and timing against both lightsaber and blaster wielders. One landed strike from a lightsaber should instantly kill every trooper/reinforcement/hero/villain with the exception of Boba Fett (Mandalorian Armor). Yet so many troopers/reinforcements/heros/villains can survive multiple blows from a weapon that has the cutting power to strike through almost anything like a hot knife through butter (literally cauterizes severed limbs as it cuts them off). None of which being clone/storm trooper armor, droid parts, or human flesh. The lightsaber in EA SWBFII is inaccurate to star wars There are only a handful of lightsaber resistant materials in the entire star wars canon. Make lightsaber attacks that don’t latch onto enemies like the OG SWBFII or make lightsaber attack animations always connect with enemies within range (even if they are running/hopping/ or combat rolling) unless a dash or jetpack is used. It’s impossible to do and you will get cut every single time. I stand 3 feet away from you with a sword, and you try to dodge my swing by rolling either away 2 times in a row, or literally right between my legs. For anybody who does believe this is an exploit, I dare you to meet me irl so we can test the theory.

Because of this, there is what I consider to be an exploit where infantry classes can roll their way out of a lightsaber swing.

Lightsaber hit-boxes Because the game is animation based, lightsaber attacks latch onto enemies. Though, there are changes I would like to see in Battlefront 2 today which would make my favorite game mode galactic conquest exponentially better. I hope lightsaber combat receives a complete overhaul to a system like for honor in battlefront 3, but an update like that is obviously unrealistic now. Lightsaber combat in general is terrible, what should be dueling is instead button mashing and the “good” players constantly dashing out the way of your swings. Lightsaber wielders are the face of Star Wars, however there are many problems with both the player-base and game that need to change to make playing them anything except frustrating. As a long-time fan of both star wars and multiplayer shooters, my recent negative experiences in Battlefront II’s multiplayer has pushed me into making this post. I’ve been playing battlefront since the OG battlefront 2 days, and played both of the EA battlefronts avidly immediately on release day (I even played EA SWBFII months before release by waiting in a 9 hour line at EA play).
