All Game Items
Overview
In Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, items are primarily divided into Lightsaber Upgrades, Equipment & Cosmetics, Consumables, Collectibles, Materials & Currencies, and Key Story Items. Unlike traditional RPGs, there are no armor sets or multiple weapons; instead, Cal’s progression is tied to unlocking new Force powers, lightsaber stances, and upgrades for BD-1, the Mantis, and cosmetic ponchos. This guide covers every item category, how to find each item, and how they enhance gameplay.

1. Lightsaber Components & Upgrades
The lightsaber is Cal's primary weapon. Its appearance can be customized with components found in chests, but its functional upgrades are unlocked via story progression and ability points.
1.1 Lightsaber Customization Parts
All lightsaber parts are purely cosmetic. They can be swapped at any workbench. Parts are found in locked chests (requiring BD-1's Scomp Link to open) or as rewards from certain Echoes.
| Part Type | Number of Variants | Example Locations |
|---|---|---|
| Emitter | 11 | Bogano: Abandoned Workshop, Zeffo: Imperial Dig Site |
| Switch | 11 | Kashyyyk: Imperial Refinery, Dathomir: Swamp of Sacrifice |
| Sleeve | 11 | Ilum: Crystal Caves, Nur: Fortress Inquisitorius |
| Material | 10 (e.g., Bronze, Chromium, Duraplast, Electrum, etc.) | Found in various chests and from some merchants |
1.2 Function Upgrades
These are passive enhancements or new combat abilities obtained from the skill tree and story.
- Saber Throw – Unlocked via story. Allows Cal to throw his lightsaber at an enemy or object. Works well against groups and distant foes.
- Stim Canister Upgrade – Increases the number of Stims BD-1 can carry (from 2 to max 10). Found by exploring and defeating certain enemies.
- Dual Lightsaber – Changes Cal’s stance to a double-bladed lightsaber. Obtained on Dathomir after defeating Malicos. Deals wide sweeping damage.
- Double-Bladed Lightsaber – Initially given on Bogano? Actually, Cal starts with one blade; the double-bladed is obtained from the workbench after finding a specific part? Correction: The double-bladed lightsaber is unlocked on Ilum during the story, giving Cal both single and double stances.
- Force Powers – Push, Pull, Slow, and Heal are all unlockable Force abilities that also affect combat and exploration. They are obtained via story progression.
- Neutral Poncho – Default, worn at start.

- Upgrade: Find Echoes or defeat bosses to increase capacity (max 10). Each upgrade is a special item like “Stim Canister Upgrade” found in the world.
- Types: Different colored seeds (e.g., Red, Blue, Green). Found in specific locations.
- Usage: Plant them in the Mantis’s terrarium for a cosmetic reward (a special outfit after planting all).
- Echoes – Blue glowing orbs that reveal past events. Scanning them adds lore entries. There are over 100 Echoes across all planets.
- Chests – Contain cosmetic items (ponchos, lightsaber parts, skins). Locked chests require BD-1’s Scomp Link.
- Force Echoes – Shorter version that unlocks journal entries.
- Databank Entries – Scattered terminals and creatures; scanning completes the databank.
- Cryptic Maps – Found in various locations, revealing hidden areas.
- The Astromech – A secret droid on Bogano that gives a cosmetic after repairing it.

- Scomp Link – BD-1’s upgrade allowing him to open locked doors and chests. Obtained on Bogano after scanning the tomb.

- Kashyyyk Munitions Key – Opens the Imperial chests on Kashyyyk.
- Dathomir Obelisk Shards – Needed to open the pathway to the Nightbrother village.
- Lightsaber Upgrades + Force Powers: The Double-Bladed stance works well with Force Pull to gather enemies and then slash. Saber Throw synergizes with Slow to hit targets repeatedly.
- Stims + Meditation Points: Always refill at meditation points before boss fights. Upgrading Stims to 8+ is crucial for late-game battles (e.g., Ninth Sister, Malicos, Trilla).
- Ponchos & BD-1 Skins: No gameplay impact, but can be swapped to match the environment or personal preference.
- Seeds: Only for completionists; plant all to unlock a secret sequence and a unique skin.
- Mantis Upgrades: The Meditation Chamber is the first priority, followed by Analysis Lab for lore enthusiasts.
- Use BD-1’s Map to mark unopened chests and uncollected echoes. The map becomes fully detailed after upgrading the Mantis with the Analysis Lab.
- Prioritize Stims: On your first playthrough, increase Stims to at least 6 before tackling Zeffo.
- Lightsaber Parts: Do not stress over them; they are all cosmetic. Collect them for the achievement.
- Credits: Break every crate you see; they often yield credits. Also, defeat the optional Haxion Brood bounty hunters for extra credits.
