Combat Fundamentals
  • Lightsaber Attack: X (Xbox) / Square (PlayStation) / Left Click (PC). Chain attacks for combos.
  • Heavy Attack: Y (Xbox) / Triangle (PlayStation) / Right Click (PC). Slower but deals more damage and breaks guard.
  • Block/Parry: LB (Xbox) / L1 (PlayStation) / Right Click (PC). Hold to block, tap just before an attack to parry. Parrying is key to breaking enemy guard.
  • Force Push: RB (Xbox) / R1 (PlayStation) / Q (PC). Useful for environmental puzzles and staggering enemies.
  • Force Slow: LT (Xbox) / L2 (PlayStation) / F (PC). Slows enemies, giving you an advantage.
  • Target Lock: Right Analog Stick (Controller) / Middle Mouse Button (PC). Helps maintain focus on a single enemy.

Prioritize parrying over blocking when possible, as it opens enemies up for counter-attacks.
