These lightsaber stances also have skill upgrades that you can unlock to increase the effectiveness of your attacks. The Blaster Stance surely makes up for the lack of range with lightsaber combat. You can aim and shoot at enemies easily from a distance to take them down.

Here’s how to get the Blaster Stance in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

You won’t unlock the Blaster Stance right away in the game. In fact, Bode Akuna gives you the blaster after you decide to leave Jedha to go after Dagan Gera. Keep progressing in the main questline to the point where you leave Koboh to meet Cere on Jedha.

After reaching Jedha to reunite with Cere Junda, Cal Kestis will meet Nightsister Merrin. She leads you to Cere’s archives, where you also meet Master Eno Cordova. Cere helps the Hidden Path now to protect people from the Empire, and Cal informs her about Dagan Gera. Here you’ll have to make a choice between visiting Koboh or the Shattered Moon.

Before getting up on the ship, Bode gives you a Blaster, and you can test it out on the training dummy. The Blaster has two firing options. You can shoot a beam by pressing Y on controllers, and F on keyboards. Likewise, you can hold down on the respective button input to fire a charged beam at enemies. You can also invest skill points to upgrade the Blaster Stance on the Skill Tree.
