Are you serious? You think Luke just magically learned how to create a lightsaber on his own or that he just found his new green one before ROTJ?
After ESB Luke did go to Ben's house and learned how to construct a lightsaber I believe it's in Shadows of the empire but I could be wrong.
Am I serious for asking for the source that states that? Um...yea. What kind of artifacts could possibly be left behind? You think OB1 put a tutorial on youtube on how to create a lightsaber? Look, I know he constructed his green saber in Ben's old house, but I was reading something where Jedi were told how to do it and had to call upon the force to help them. What if Ben was out getting milk one day and some crackhead tusken raider broke in looking for stereo equipment to pawn to Watto for a quick fix, and they look down... oh shit, a detailed owner's manual on how to build a saber!?! Now doesn't that see silly? To the best of my knowledge, OB1 didn't have any holocrons or archives from the temples, so really... or seriously, what was he studying?
Right, because OB1 always went around choking people. We never see Anakin being taught that... he just did it when he was enraged and using the darkside. Luke doing that was done to show the similarities between him and Vader, along with his all black outfit. So basically, you all have no idea what he did there,save for building a lightsaber? Just say that then.
Can you point out to me when I said it was complex? I said that OB1 never did it because its considered a darkside attack. It's using the force to offensively and purposely kill someone.
Granted Luke only did it to the point of unconsciousness, but it was purposely done, along with a few other things, to show the similarities between him and his father.

well you kind of answered that one on your own yes obi-wan DID leave instructions on HOW to create a lightsaber. It does still take the force to attune a crystal into the right positions to make the lightsaber work properly also if you recall Ullic built a lightsaber AFTER he was stripped of the force so it IS possible for non force sensatives to create a lightsaber if they know how.

So then what was Luke doing for all that time he spent studing at Obi-wan's house?

Easy peezy Lemon-squeezy. Autokrat was directing no venom at you.
Originally posted by xxxpoppunker182Why would he leave a written down tutorial on how to build one? Why wouldn't have just learned that from Yoda, lost daddy's, then go back to Ben's hut and build it from what Yoda taught him? I'm really only arguing the point of what Ben left there for him.

Originally posted by Darth_GlentractExactly my point. We don't know. But whatever it was, it wasn't enough for him to be in the league of these guys...

You'd think Ben would have at least left a note telling Luke than Lightsabers are great for blocking Force Lightning.
Yes, remember kids, do not throw away your lightsaber just to prove your point. Imagine if Yoda did that in his battle with Sidious.
*Yoda throws away lightsaber after entering room*
"Jedi, I am!!!!1!1!!111"
*Zap, dead*

He was stated to be studying the Force. I don't understand why partially pulling an X-wing out of a swamp doesn't seem like a big deal to you. Yoda was impressed at what he saw until Luke gave up. And then since he stayed with Yoda for a long time after that and got even more powerful.

Why did darth maul just stand there when Obi wan jumped over him? I don't know. BUT obi wanDID have plans on how to make a LS in his house on tattoine. I never said it made sense or that you had to like it but it is canon.

Originally posted by Darth_GlentractThe most important thing you said there was "he gave up." Plus, he barely moved it. Not impressive. I think Yoda was more of getting ready to be impressed.
