- Alchemized Crystal - Dresta’s lightsaber uses an alchemized crystal. It combines a lava crystal, a Mestare crystal, and Allya’s Exile. This means it is extremely hot and can cut through pure cortosis. This combination results in the creation of a distinct and much heavier blade that is highly effective with her brutal fighting style, benefitting her when she uses the brutal, bashing strikes of Djem So to overpower an opponent. Though often hotter than the usual lightsaber blade, requiring a cooling system, the blade can be cooled through a set of buttons similar to the dual-phase button also found on the blade. At the lowest heat, the blade is heavier and harder, and more like a club. There is a rumor that it uses an alchemized crystal, but this is not 100% confirmed.
- Tri-Phase & Underwater Functionality - The tri phase weapon, switching between shorter than a normal lightsaber, longer than a normal lightsaber, and full greatsaber length - can work underwater, and is known to have a maximum length of 3 meters. With more substance than a normal lightsaber blade, it can cut through pure cortosis.
- Look Mom! Hands! - Caduceus can be wielded with either one hand or two.

- Lightsaber Resistant Materials - Yeah this no worky on those.
- Particle Beam Blasters - Particle beam blasters are not extremely friendly towards being deflected by the lightsaber.
- Slugthrowers - A dozen of these bad boys a second? Yeaaaah. Better have force barrier.
Caduceus was constructed with knowledge of the mysteries of the Cult of Dresta, harnessing secret alchemical knowledge to create a unique lightsaber crystal that poses a definitive threat to Dresta’s enemies. Whether it be the lava slinging off of the blade onto opponent’s when she swings her saber, or the fact that the oversize saber is extremely effective with the hyper-aggressive Djem So that Dresta often favors, Caduceus’ blade has been the death of many a nemesis. Then again, if they die before her sword are they really a nemesis?
