Ilum

STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order™ guide · Journey to build a new lightsaber

Cal Kestis travels to the frozen world of Ilum after his lightsaber is destroyed on Dathomir. He must navigate the ancient Jedi Temple's puzzles and delve deep into the Crystal Caves to find a new kyber crystal. Along the way, Cal overcomes personal failure, repairs his weapon into a dual-bladed split saber, and fights Imperial forces occupying the planet.

Tips

When solving the Jedi Temple light beam puzzle, remember to melt both the exterior ice sheet and the interior doors by aligning the hanging crystal with the sunbeam using Force Pull and Push.
The new split-saber attack unlocked after forging the new lightsaber expends a large amount of Force power but deals immense damage to groups and breaks enemy guards quickly.
You will face a sudden Imperial ambush when returning to the Mantis, so save your stim canisters for the heavy waves outside the temple doors.
