Deflection Emitter
Deflection emitters are optimized for use against blaster fire. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Disrupting Emitter
Disrupting emitters create an unsteady beam which can wreck havoc on a victim's nervous system. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Phobium Emitter
Made for the more aggressive combatant, the phobium emitter is heavier and less wieldy than the typical disrupting emitter. It is also indisputably more effective. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Fencing emitters are most suitable for parrying hand-to-hand attacks. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Kunda Lens
The kunda stone has numerous practical applications in medicine and communications. It can also be combined with normal lens to produce a broader, yet still focused beam. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Ossus Dueling Lens
Ossus was known for its Great Jedi Library, however other training still took place on its surface. After being consumed by the Cron supernova, several pieces of equipment were still found in the halls of the Jedi Enclave. The dueling lens was meant to focus a lightsaber into a finely tuned blade meant for dueling and other instances where complete control is needed. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Dragite Lens
Though typically used as a focusing crystal, dragite is one of several crystals that can also be used to create suitable lightsaber lenses. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Adegan Lens

Beam Gem Lens
The aptly named beam gem crystals are common in optical computers such as those involved in navigational systems. Not surprisingly, they also can create a highly focused lightsaber beam. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Vibration Lens
This lens vibrates very rapidly, resulting in a less stable, but more deadly beam. The modifications require a workbench with adequate tools and a weapon of high quality marked as upgradeable.

Crystals
../Lightsabers/ always have one crystal which determines blade color, so getting a lightsaber always gives you a color crystal as well. Lightsabers can be upgraded to change their color, but since they must have a color crystal you cannot do so if the only crystals you have are in other lightsabers: you must have at least one of the separate color crystals listed below to allow this.
