Then try harder, switch to a sword, or just stick to guns.

And it's still not as dumb an idea as a sword/saber comboQae Shena said:

I just want a saber with extra weight. Is it too much to ask?
Don't answer that.
Don't answer that.
I was going to write a long post about torque and how to simulate the torque a sword would have with a lightsaber, but then did some quick math and found that you would have to put 6 times the weight of a sword's blade into a lightsaber to simulate how much torque a three foot sword would have.Elijah Rowlin said:
Essentially, it's impractical since your character would be carrying an object 6 times the weight of a sword.
So, it might be best just to have your character stick with vibroswords or get training with a lightsaber. There are too many benefits that a saber has that are lost by putting a metal rod down the length of the blade just to add weight similar to a vibroblade.
Phantom Pains
Vibrosword. There, problem solved.

They don't.Menoetius said:
In the book, "Bloodlines", Jaina Solo must duel a friend of Boba Fett's to get training. She uses a lightsaber, he a beskad. After a while, he gives her a beskad. She immediately notices the weight difference on the end; how the blade has weight now, and she has to twist it a little more to get the edge where it needs to be.
Fighting with a sword versus a lightsaber is like fighting with a broom handle vs a rolled-up newspaper.
They don't. Apparently the plasma blade makes a "gyroscopic effect," which is complete bull. What would happen in a simple sense is that it would attempt to keep the blade oriented in a specific direction, depending on how the "gyroscopic effect" is created since it requires a spinning object. Essentially, you could have a situation where the angular momentum of this "gyroscopic effect" is actually seemingly pulling the blade to the side rather than a simple constant pull to the ground.Menoetius said:
This would explain why above average strength and training is necessary for a lightsaber, but at the same time it's wonky physics and seems as if it was introduced by using a buzzword no one fully understood. Sci-fi writers don't know science.

Well. Gundam is a world full of the unnecessary and the impractical. Don't pull a Gundam! Just suck it up and learn to use it IC. It might take you a long time but nobody got anywhere without taking baby steps first.
