The Lightsaber is a pretty cool weapon that lets you block projectiles which will prevent you from taking damage on the front. However, getting one can be a bit tedious as they will randomly spawn throughout the map, either inside the chests or as floor loots.

You can find four different color variations of the Lightsaber, each of which is named after iconic Star Wars characters namely:

  • Kylo Ren – Red
  • Luke Skywalker – Green
  • Mace Windu – Purple
  • Obi-Wan – Blue

If you’re struggling to find one, then this guide is for you.

As mentioned, Lightsabers drop randomly, so there’s no guaranteed way of actually finding them except for killing someone who has it and then looting it afterward.

To increase your chances of finding one, your best bet is to head over to areas with high traffic and start looting as many as you can.

You can turn on Visualize Sound Effects so you can easily spot a nearby chest. The number of chests you’ll have to open before you can finally find a Lightsaber will depend on your luck.

You can also try heading over to points of interest, as you might find a Lightsaber inside. You can tell that it’s a Lightsaber drop if it has a golden glow as shown in the image above.
