Lightsaber crystals
There are twenty two different types of crystals that be used in constructing a lightsaber. A lightsaber can include only one of any type of focusing crystal. Crystals of the identical type cannot be combined in the same lightsaber. All of the following crystals are available in the game, but some of the crystals due to their rarity some will not spawn while playing the game (i.e. The crystals marked "Very Ultra Rare" will not be available in every game). If you find a Very Ultra Rare crystal, immediately save the game. The crystal may not be available again, even upon reload of a previous save. The various crystal varieties, sorted by their average selling price in local stores and listed with their scale of rarity are as follows.
