Ugh, I hate posting these kind of things, but I have finally decided that I have no choice.

This is a long ways off since I don't have the necessary money yet (still waiting on a paycheck to snag the computer parts I need), but I've finally decided to make my first big saber purchase: a Champion Weathered Acolyte with 12w (most likely 12w+ by the time I order). My problem is that I'm terribly torn on blade color. I know, we should pick what 'calls to us', but too many things call to me at once (took me forever to narrow down which Apprentice hilt I wanted!). Here are my choices (I'm staying away from green since I already have a green saber and my two ASP designs will have green blades).

-Blood Orange with Crimson
-Medium Blue with Viridian
-Red with Crimson
-Indigo with Viridian

Help appreciated!!

Hi Eddlyss64,

Can I ask is it for a costume or a Role Play character you may have? I wrote in my story that I initially had a blue blade but after that was destroyed in battle I got a new Saber with a Green (Green!) blade that signified I had matured and gained experience.

1. For an extra $150 upgrade to Hero Tier (colours and sound fonts satisfied)
2. For an extra $105 (35x3)upgrade to Quick Disconnects (colours satisfied)
3. Start with Indigo and bench the other 3 for revisiting after computer parts successfully snagged.
4. I imagine you'd be happy with either of the 4 since it's now the final short list. Divide 4 into 2 groups of 2 and find a coin with two different sides. Start the Round-Robin Tournament, Heads one-Tails the other and eliminate the one chance doesn't favour. Repeat until you have a victor.

My son has a 12w Bane with Indigo/Veridian. It is a fantastic combination.

Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

For whatever reason the Acolyte to me says sith saber (especially the weathered version), so if it was me i'd go red with crimson!
Good luck in your decision, the Acolyte is a nice looking saber!

Thanks for all the input guys!

DK44, I don't actually have a red blade yet, so that is an idea!

Brax, that Indigo does look incredible! I'll keep that in mind!

Good idea, Ouin! Let fate decide!

For Tyeth, this one is really just for the heck of it. My two ASP designs are my cosplay character's sabers. The orange was for one of my character's sabers, but since he becomes a Knight of Ren and loses his old lightsaber in favor of a crossguard saber still with orange, Zi wouldn't do that in favor of him.

Medium blue is out! I think I'll try Ouin's idea and flip a coin.

EDIT: I don't want Hero tier because I'll already be busting the bank for Champion. Plus I'm trying to build some samurai charisma by not spoiling myself. I also noticed two for Indigo. We'll let fate decide!

That is a 12w. It is even better in 12w+!

Well, from a 3 out of 5 coin flip, Blood Orange is the winner for my weathered Acolyte! If my next saber isn't one of my ASP designs, then it will be Indigo. Thanks guys!
