Title: Question about Hilts Post by: Acid Snake on August 20, 2017, 02:51:00 AM Hi, I'm looking forward to buy a new saber, but I have some questions.
-Is the Guardian hilt comfortable for dueling? How much does it weight? Also I have the same questions about the prophecy v3. Plz answer Title: Re: Question about Hilts Post by: Isola815 on August 20, 2017, 03:22:51 AM The Guardian is extremely comfortable but weight will depend on what options you pick.
I would happily duel with my Guardian as either a one or two handed saber and not find it awkward or uncomfortable in any way. Many people here will say the Prophecy is comfortable too, but I'm the odd one out and don't like the feel of that hilt at all. Too small and light and with the covertec still attached, I find it beyond uncomfortable.

I mean like in Ep.3 when Obi Wan and Anakin are at mustafar. Also I think I'm buying the stunt version Title: Re: Question about Hilts Post by: Isola815 on August 20, 2017, 05:29:12 AM Thanks for answering, I have another question, Is it hard to spin this light saber?

You just need to practice and be prepared to drop it a few times in the process. Even some of our members with tiny hands have no trouble spinning hilts like the Fulcrum and the Scorpion. My advice is get the hilt you want and learn how to handle that hilt.

I definitely recommend it for dueling. If youre used to a lighter saber though go with the prophecy as the guardian does have a bit of weight. Like Isola said though, definitely remove the covertec on the prophecy as its situated awkwardly

OR you could try the overlord...pretty straight forward, no flashie greeblies, so this too could be an excellent choice. With the overlord you would get the choice to swap parts out since this is an MHS saber...well the emitter and pommel..and again the cost is still good :) just some thoughts
