Talk:Light side of the Force/Legends

Again..like Bogan, the Dark Side article..this is in a terrible state and probably should be renamed the Light Side or merged with The Force.

Lightsaber
This really belongs in The Force or some such. After all, using the Dark Side hasn't prevented Dark Siders from using a lightsaber.

Never mentioned in the films
Think it's worth mentioning that the "Light Side of the Force" is never actually mentioned during any of the films, and is essentially an EU invention? I'm not denying it's canonicity as far as SW continuity is concerned, just pointing out that in the films, you have "the Force and it's dark side". Jedi talk about the Force, and trusting in the Force and of the dark side - but never, not once, do they use the terminology "Light side".

That said, Luke mentions a "good side" once. (Ulicus 21:23, 19 May 2006 (UTC))

RotJ, Luke says to Leia before confronting Vader that there is good in him and he wants to bring him back to the good side. '...there is good in him. I’ve felt it. He won’t turn me over to the Emperor. I can save him. I can turn him back to the good side.' Cariel 17:48, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

light side powers
You know the light side power list is horrible. Most of the powers there are core powers not light, plus its missing most of the cool light side powers. does anyone mind if I change this? If not ill change it tommorow or sooner if someone agrees with me.--Darth Malice 20:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The entire CONCEPT of "powers" in both sides of the force is ridiculous. The Force can't be classified like this, it is capable of a great many things, the only barrier is the mind of the user. Listing powers is ridiculous, and giving them their own entry is absurd. But I won't edit anything without a secondary opinion. --162.83.138.186 06:16, 5 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Since you are so opposed to the Force seeming limited, perhaps we could change the section title to something like: "Known Light Side Force Techniques", "Known Techniques of the Light Side", or maybe "Known Uses of the Light Side". It’s just a thought. Dargos 21:57, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Force Jump
Since when was Force Jump a Light Side ability, I thought is was a core ability. user:Darth Vatrir

Well from my view it is a core force ability since you don't draw on the Light to make it work. That is just me though. If I am right someone should change it so people aren't misled by this article.
