Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Hints
Special Lightsaber
1 of 5: You can get this from Darth Malak's apprentice Darth Bandon under certain circumstances.
2 of 5: Sometimes, Darth Bandon will leave his lightsaber on his corpse. This saber appears as a normal double-bladed lightsaber, but it has the property of changing the effects of every enhancing crystal, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.
3 of 5: To get it, you have to fight Darth Bandon on Manaan. That means that Manaan has to be the third world you get a Star Map on after Dantooine.
4 of 5: If it is the third planet you solve, Bandon should show up and do battle with you, and will drop his lightsaber.
5 of 5: I haven't tested all of the lightsaber crystals on Bandon's lightsaber, so it's up to you to find out all the effects. It has a tendency to eliminate half of one crystal's bonus while enhancing the other slightly, or sometimes just makes both worse. It's not always a good idea to use this lightsaber, but sometimes it is handy.
