Crossguard Stance

It is inspired by Kylo-Ren’s heavy lightsaber, which he holds with his hands in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Since the lightsaber will be more severe than usual and players will carry it with both hands, players will feel its effect on their movements, which will be considerably slower. 

The Crossguard stance will be accessible after players have completed the Drya Thorne boss fight on the Shattered Moon in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. 

Best Skills For The Crossguard Stance

• Greater Impact: Cal goes airborne and then strikes down to create a massive shockwave that neutralizes multiple strong enemies simultaneously.
• Rolling Thunder: Cal can throw his lightsaber in a straight line and hit multiple enemies.
• Sundering Swipe: Cal performs a rapid sweep attack, destroying multiple enemies in range.

Double Bladed Stance

Players can neutralize large groups of enemies using this stance. One thing that I noticed is that compared to the other stances, the double-bladed stance is less powerful. 

Best Skills For The Double-Bladed Stance

The double-bladed stance is handy in crowd control situations, while the Crossguard stance is practical during boss fights in the game.

• Endless Hurricane: It creates a prolonged deadly attack combo by extending the Double-bladed chain attack to accommodate more enemies in the attack range.
• Rising Storm: It pulls the enemies into a smaller circle and puts Cal in the air straight above the circle to decide how he wants to attack them.
• Repulsing Burst: It lets you get out of enemy crowds by pushing all of them away, followed by quick attacking combos.

Blaster Stance

Blasters aren’t necessarily a leading weapon choice for most Jedis, which I find frustrating, and this stance is an excellent answer to that.

It indeed has some shortcomings, like limited ammo and no throw option. However, with certain upgrades and equipping it with a few crucial skills, players can overcome these shortcomings quickly.

Being the second-last stance, players can unlock it after reaching Jedha. Players will get this blaster from Bode Akuna on their first visit to Jedha.

Best Skills For The Blaster Stance

• Point Black: Cal can blast away enemies when they get close to him during fights and create a safe space around himself.
• Quickdraw: lets players focus on multiple enemies and target them with deadly blows.
• Energizing Flury: This lets players drop lethal combos on their enemies while at the same time replenishing ammo for the blaster.

Dual Wield Stance

Using this stance, players can back out of an attack immediately after launching it and perform another attack simultaneously to dominate their enemies.

The Dual Wield stance drains stamina quickly. For that instance, you must strategize their attacks efficiently to make them effective while conserving their stamina.

Players must first defeat the Ninth Sister in a boss fight to get this stance. It is the first boss fight in the game, and players will battle it during the Escape Undercity Meats objective. 

Best Skills For The Dual Wield Stance

• Backstep Slash: allows players to deal severe damage and back off immediately to avoid retaliatory attacks. Especially helpful in PvP fights.
• Precision Release: allows players to create a massive shockwave to repulse away multiple enemies, immediately followed by a lethal attacking combo.
• Dancing Blades: allows players to throw away both their lightsabers, hitting almost every enemy in sight. By far the most excellent skill in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

Single Blade Stance

Its balanced stance offers moderate speed, attacking power, and defense capabilities. There are no drawbacks to this stance, and experienced players can excel through the gameplay using this stance only.

Being an extremely balanced stance, players won’t find themselves in any trouble, especially after equipping it with certain upgrades.

Best Skills For The Single Blade Stance

• Cyclone Slash: allows players to perform an overhead swing, building for a solid attacking combo.
• Dash Strike: allows players to dash around and strike multiple enemies within a specific range.
• Charged Throw: allows players to throw lightsabers in a straight line to hit multiple enemies, dealing them more damage than usual.

What Would I Consider The Best?

All three of the new stances are excellent in their own right. Although I still can not get over using two lightsabers and shredding through the enemies. Nevertheless, if you are looking for the Stance that causes most carnage, I recommend you stick with the Crossguard stance.

Do you like the new stances more or stick with the classic ones? Tell us in the comments.
