I'm making this guide because I'm tired of people complaining that this weapon is op in Garrys Mods, and it's already been several years that people don't understand how it works and how to play with it and play against it in pvp, they don't necessarily want to know how to play against it, they just complain

(Obviously this guide is not intended to ridicule people who do not know how to play properly, it is normal not to be strong in a video game, it is only for information )

well, no the actual lightsaber isnt the issue, the abilitys are, force absorb gives you so much more health than usual, and add armour onto it and you are basically a juggernaut with a long death stick

remove or nerf the light sabre since its very unfair in pvp battles. It makes players quite hard to almost impossible to kill with regular guns or even explosives.

To begin all the capacity uses force, they are not unlimited

Jump leap :
Allows to make a jump forward
You are vulnerable to damage


Force absorb :
Allows you to have an extra life
You are not vulnerable to damage but not indefinitely, once your gauge is empty, you will be vulnerable (the more damage you do the faster the gauge is empty)


Force repulse:
Allows you to push your enemies (and to kill them if the server allows it.)
You are vulnerable to damage


Force Heal :
Allows you to regenerate your life but beware! everyone sees the effect of Heal through the walls
You are vulnerable to damage


Force combust :
Burns the enemies around you
You are vulnerable to damage


Froce lightning :
Lightning you enemies around you
You are vulnerable to damage


Of course all this effect doesn't kill you in one shot

In short, when using the lightsaber, you almost never have it at 100% in combat, you can use it to kill lightsabers user and prevent him from running away, but how?

It seems quite basic and strange to say that but you just have to shoot (preferably in the head) because with the lightsaber your not invincible although it takes a little longer to kill him (but not much when you know how to shoot)

But Horvik, he can kill you with another weapon while using the lightsaber

yes,but if you shoot precisely and keep your distance he will be hard stuck in his force absorb capacity

It's either he stays on this ability but he will be limited in time and die (if he doesn't kill you first),
or he uses another weapon and you can kill him much easier,
in most cases (if you know how to shoot) lightsaber players will die

You need to know several things:

- the lightsaber is a melee weapon so it can't hit you from distance (unless it uses another weapon in between)
- the force gauge is not unlimited as some people think
- shooting him in the head allows you to kill him in a few shots

Bravos, now you know the anti lightsaber trinity



Then you need to have sense. You are not going to throw yourself on him or not move.

Force absorb (Head shoot) :

• Kept the distance with the lightsaber players
  
• Shoot in the head
  
• Try to shoot as much as possible

Certainly it is a little more hard, but they are not "unkillable" there are many situations where you can kill them easily, when they are in the air , or even when they start to run away but if you shoot them in the head you kill them in any case

Now it's your turn to play
