Armor effects on to hit of lightsaber

Another thing to consider, at least on the XBOX version, is that the characters' Dexeterity bonus determines the "to hit " bonus for lightsabers. I know the manual staes that the Strenght bonus affects lightsaber "to hit" rolls, but after experimenting with strength and dexterity boosting items the Dex bonus is what affects the "to hit" roll, while Strength does affect the lighsaber damage bonus. Try it for yourself. So, as long as the armor allows a decent Dex bonus it should be a non-issue as a few offensive and defensive force powers allow armor use. I think the Dex bonus affecting lightsaber "to hit" is more realistic as it is supposed to be difficult weapon to wield and master. Later....
