Okidokey, Rex's possible absence soon is rather heartbreaking as I am sure that he and Lance were looking forward to their re-match!
If you do have to go, Rex, we'll see what we can get done for you in the story right now, and then for episode III you can be busy doing a job for Kuylen somewhere away from the action- which actually sits some aspects of the plot very well. Then you can make a triumphant return later!
You can actually do that anyway but only if you hiot a damaged body part very hard.
What that code in fact does is massively increase sabre damage so you get that effect all the time. It was Raven toying with making sabres instant kill weapons in JO- which would have been nice, but it was no good for balanced gameplay.
ONE day they will make a game built AROUND the sabres so it doesn't matter HOW dangerous they are, but I can't see it happening any time soon.
Lance, you can react at any point, you know. I am taking you up level by level.
