I think his lightsaber is red not orange red. The way it looks is just how red is depicted in the game. You can tell this is the case based on the red crystal in New Journey plus.

[@CarbonKrazie]

I agree with you

[@robinekhoodekful]

Actually… we could compare it to Vader’s lightsaber color, couldn’t we?

[@Kingdakota97]

​@@robinekhoodekful if you have the orange customization color on your saber when you have the cutscene, Dagan bleeds it red. Not orange

@robinekhoodekful comparing both in game they are more or less the same

[@ShawnHinck]

@@CarbonKrazie in HDR they definitely don’t look close to more or less the same, there’s definitely some orange to the blade like Vader but not close to the same.

[@kingexteriorii5540]

His lightsaber is red. It isn't orange, it isn't orange red. It is red. The red saber color in this game is more desaturated. You can equip Cal with a red saber and fight Dagan Gera and you will see they are the same.

[@Maddog-xc2zv]

exactly. and fight dagan with an orange blade and the difference is even more abyssal

[@connorgarvin2056]

the cool thing tho is as hes bleeding it you see it flicker to orange before going red, maybe orange is made by a partially bled crystal, someone who isnt rageful enough to bleed it fully and isnt completely consumed by evil, just a lil grumpy i like to say

[@harrisonsims7680]

This would be a cool theory, but Dagan’s saber is clearly red in game. I use the orange saber with Cal, and Dagan’s is clearly red when you fight him.

@@kd594 Both Orange and Purple have very similar meanings in Canon (mostly because Orange was not part of the Canon for like 20 years).

And then theres non colors like white, black and grey? Which is tve " parents " of them all

[@yungchilibowl9494]

I’m pretty sure that’s just how the red lightsaber looks in the game, You can pick orange as a color and it looks different. Ninth sister and the one you get in new game plus also look like that so it might just be red and look a bit orange

[@ZackLin571]

I agree. I'm fairly certain it just comes out a bit different with how it is depicted in the game.

[@zPinge]

Dude I’m pretty sure that’s supposed to just be red, because in new game plus when you get the “red” saber, they are identical when you fight dagan again you can see they are the same color

[@OsKxCinder]

Theory inaccurate: Dagan’s saber is very much Red, not orange. Compare his saber to Cal’s orange saber. Two very different colors. Not a bad theory, if not for the inaccurate saber color.

[@demonintellect9834]

Except it would make more sense for Cals to be orange since he will tap into the dark side when he is furious but only to defend himself or another.

[@brianschwarm8267]

@@demonintellect9834 orange has always meant righteous fury or righteous indignation in legends. Plo Koon had one and also used force powers like electric judgement, which is a variation of force lightning. I don’t think they are necessarily bled. But bleeding is a new canon thing since that Vader comic.

[@Rob-jj2xm]

yeah I came in here confused wondering why he was calling it orange and seeing other people seemingly agree with him. Like we watched him make it bleed which has already been established. And in Fallen Order we get the option to make it Orange without doing anything more to the crystal. If orange had more meaning I'm sure they would've included that originally.

[@OsKxCinder]

To add to the above comments, my personal theory, at least for Cal’s sake, is HIS own Kyber Crystal would either be Orange or Purple due to him “Embracing the Darkness”; this COULD eventually turn into either Righteous Fury (Orange) or a mastery of Light and Dark (Purple). In regards to Dagan, when I first seen that scene where he bleeds his Crystal, never was there a thought of “wait, is that orange?”, then I say this video and was like 🤔🤔🤔??? Are people watching a different scene than I?? Lol. Like I said in my original post, it’s a good theory, just the biggest hole in said theory is the saver definitely being red not orange.

[@ZiGGi03]

He says orange /red as it’s a mix of both that’s how I took what he said .

[@JoshDoten]

Fantastic video! Really like this take/theory of an orange blade symbolizing a "righteous anger" and a "natural bleeding" of the force through a kyber crystal instead of the sith synthetic crystals (or stolen crystals and forcefully subjecting them to the dark side) being red.

[@Starkiller09]

[@ShiroNura]

@@Starkiller09 Purple I believe is like neutral/lightside while orange is neutral/darkside using natural kyber crystals. Mace Windu was light sise but always came across to me as being stiff and narrow minded towards the failing dogma of the jedi during the preqel era and never though outside the box. I mean he never defended Ahsoka when she was framed and then kinda brushed it off and said sorry when she was found innocent. And he never fully trusted Anakin even after he became Obi-wan's padawn. That's my take on it anyway.

[@ShiroNura]

@@regulus6773 The sith do bleed them but subject the crystals with hate, pain, regret and all other negative emotion DELIBERATELY and SELFISHLY, which truns them full crimson. Dagen's saber after he bled it is orange/red because of his NATURAL reaction of pain and anger at being betrayed by his friend master Khri.

[@Enigmatic_philosopher]

I wonder if Count Dooku should have had a orange blade because this feeling seems to motivate him. I have no doubt he wanted power over time but during his initial fall I suspect orange would have suited his character

[@marseanharper2785]

In his early turn to the Darkside yes, but later on he was definitely a red lightsaber guy.

[@bravocrimson12]

Remember his Master was Palpatine and being an apprentice of Palp he required you bleed a crystal to become sith. I theorized that he bled Yaddles crystal

[@dgenerate707]

In both Legends and DC he was already fed up with the Jedi Council but Qui Gon getting was his trigger. In Pleagus he wanted Power to stop the B.S. and bring order.

[@TheCyberloki]

my thought as well. He never showed the yellow with eyes as far as i recollect. And also he always acted calculating and still somewhat like a gentlemen. It felt more like he was plotting against palpatine and only held up that facade to serve him. As soon as Palpatine realized this he went on and plotted Dokus death.

[@pagado6076]

I always thought it should be more pinkish to reflect his elegance in battle.

[@arpaddanos9416]

I like your theories on how the orange color scheme represents a person who has not strayed from their good intentions but now uses darkside as a tool for their still good ends, and ultimately sacrifices themselves in that sense and to that end.

[@Sarge327]

Dagan’s saber is red tho, the lighting for where you fight him makes it look slightly orange but you can replicate the slight color shift in blades with other colors as well. Blue appears more cyan in many areas and Green appears a different shade of green too. The actual orange crystal has only shown to be used by Cal if you want him to as well as the one guy that Cal gets the crossguard upgrade from.

[@nj7969]

Okay I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s seeing it

I wonder if the creators of Jedi Survivor took some inspiration from that.

[@Its_Zach_Live]

The Jedi’s orange blade is a lighter orange, I would consider this orange more along the lines of a blood orange, just a deeper orange that’s not exactly red, as red is purely dark side, while I think dark orange is close but not entirely there. While Jedi can have an orange saber, but it’ll be a lighter orange like the one you can use as a customization for Cal in Fallen Order and Survivor

[@nicholaschristian1784]

After you beat the game you get a red color unlock but when looking at it over time it looks more red orange to me wonder if that’s an Easter egg.

[@PngReaver]

I think canonically kal would use indigo since he's both extremely gifted in all form of saber combat with basic force abilities and also understands the dark side powers well enough, but isn't weak willed like Gera

[@echoe_envy2497]

Cal is attuned with both light and dark so too me he is a Purple Lightsaber wielder, he truely hasn’t strayed from the path of light and knows how to use the dark side of the force controlled though.

indigo means calmness and wisdom imo cyan fits best since its a mix of blue and green blue being used by more combat skilled jedi and green by more force skilled jedi and Cal is very skilled in both purple also works but so does orange yellow and white but not as much as cyan and purple

[@MRBooze-yl6it]

You nailed it and it’s perfect

[@symbolik4372]

I had similar thoughts on the yellow saber, though i don't think it's a "rightious fury" but rather a twisted sense of rightiousness. He saw the temple as a symbol of the Jedis power, one would argue is a Sith trait. His blade remained yellow until Cal released him as he still saw the Jedi order as Just, but when they abandoned the temple he saw it as a sign of weakness and was driven for power to get the temple back. In other words, he didn't desire power for himself like a true Sith would, but rather desired it to restore what he considered to be a symbol of the glory of the Jedi.

[@mjhealy1978]

I remember orange lightsabers from Dark Forces 2 back in 1997. Gorc & Pic introduced that lightsaber color first

[@brianschwarm8267]

It was this in legends too. It’s why plo koon had one, he also used moves that most jedi didn’t like electric justice which is a variation on force lighting, but it’s orange/yellow and it comes from feelings of righteous indignation in the user. I don’t know if dagan’s was orange red, because it looked pretty basically red, compared to my orange saber which I’ve used since fallen order (and have my own ultra saber in the same color😊)

Perhaps in the next game. That would also be better suited for a middle-aged guy, so.

[@derekrivard626]

I think limiting the cause of a crystal’s color to the “stance in the force” of the user is frankly a little absurd, if not downright silly. If so then sabers handed down or used for lengthy periods might change colors as their users relationship to the force changed, which clearly could and did happen (Revan anybody?) yet its never commented on. In our Star Wars Force Users RPG orange sabers weren’t inherently evil because red is close to orange on the spectrum or color wheel (silly, since red green and blue and blue i believe are all primary colors), but because of the compassion of the jedi using one, which I prefer to Disneys whole theory of kyber crystals.

From the cutscene where the crystal was turned Orange it almost looks like an incomplete bleeding process to me. Like if he had time to focus on his anger and hatred it would have turned red just like a Sith's. But since he was only briefly indulging his thirst for vengeance rather than submitting completely to his emotions then the crystal only turned half way.

[@jakeshower]

I really like this theory. This makes a LOT of sense

[@dbrennan1523]

I hope they have a really good story line behind the orange saber. More than just bleeding a yellow crystal. Because many temple guards fell, and Sideous and Vader would have had access to yellow crystals to make orange blades, and so would have the inquisitors. They had a whole empire behind them to be able to locate these crystals. So it was a matter of choice for them... that means for some reason they felt the red was superior to orange OR they couldn't make a orange from the yellow. Because if they could, why didn't they if they didn't find the characteristics of the blade better. So there must be a more philosophical or dogmatic reason, like the modern Jedi could make yellow, the modern Sith must not have been able to do orange because of their beliefs or practices. Not just a matter of turning X crystal into Y crystal because "bleeding".

I'll say it like this: if padme ended up living, it's possible anakin could have ended up with an orange when he bled whatever crystal he ends up with (the specific scenario isn't really important. Left with padme, overthrew the emperor, restored democracy but still hated the jedi, etc. IDK). With padme alive, he would have something to be righteous for while still tapping into that sweet darkside power. he could learn about the bleeding from the restricted section or maybe some holocron idk. However, since padme did die, the only color option is red and that's exactly what he got. Not to mention vader was still under the impression he killed padme when he bled his crystal... I think. Don't remember. Edit: oh, and I guess I was also saying it might also have been possible for him to have an orange blade if he bled his original crystal before padme arrived on mustafar because, at the time, his goal was still to use the darkside to save padme.

[@Darth_Raven]

For example,in Old Canon,Freedon Nadd's shoto lightsaber had orange-colored blade.

[@alecjackman2655]

What about Dooku? He originally turned to the darkside for what he saw was a good cause even though he’d be corrupted later.

[@Beschplays]

Honestly this makes a lot of sense

The Chaotic Neutral Saber

[@MildlySweetCappuccino]

The orange lightsaber appeared in Jedi fallen order back in 2019 as one of the colors Cal could have, way before Baylan Skoll's appearance.

[@akarisaberwolf8762]

Whether it's red or red orange or orange is still looks awesome to me.

[@vmaninc.761]

I've always viewed Orange Lightsabers to be representative of being The ultimate form of balance with the force; Yellow representing jedi sentinels and their ability to balance both the combative and Philosophical side of the force Combine that with red And you get Orange which represents their ability to Draw upon the dark side of the force for combat purposes or Philosophical Purposes to counter act or reverse engineer the thinking of their opponent with empathy and logic Which would be the appropriate color to represent a Grey jedi Sentinel, a bendu je'daii and je'daii assassin!💯😁😉👍

[@killjoycola]

What if orange blades are ment to show a jedi that fell to the darkside but doesn't have sith training, so it doesn't bleed the same way, but it's still a form of bleeding and is why the glow is red but not the blade.

[@gokublackq2956]

This is the way

[@AmericanCalabar]

It's seems to be along the same lines as "Force Judgement" which is basically righteous force lightning. I bet we'll see it from these dark Jedi.

[@dragonstalker2873]

This is great info for the Ahsoka show.

[@DarthNihilusTheDarkness]

Lightsabers yellow in colouration are often wielded by those who are honorable and trustworthy, always fighting fairly and with a strong connection to the light. The orange crystal is likely most often bled from a yellow saber as their fall to the darkside has more understandable intentions, not because of a lust for power but a strong passion. I suppose Anakin didnt have a yellow saber because he was always committing war crimes.

[@andrewaiello6110]

I can't wait to see this in the Ahsoka show.

[@Gor85]

This sounds very interesting. I feel sorry for Dagenen. I think orange represents fire inside,pain,passion. Like you said. It's not bad color

[@parkinatorparkinator3274]

i think of it as kinda how purplem is blue mixed with red so its like a yellow light saber wielder does something akin to mace windu maybe

[@afrotastic06]

It may be that I’m colorblind but I see Dagan’s blade red. I normally like to use white for Cal’s blade but changed it to orange on the workbench and was clearly able to see the difference in the two colors.

[@willplante1088]

I feel like if this was the case Douku's lightsaber would also be orange

[@tobiwebb9896]

@the stupendous wave Where does your thoughts on this theoretically leave Revans mind set? Could he have had an orange saber?

[@iowa89357]

I think the first on screen use of an orange lightsaber is actually GUMBY

[@ss3vegito999]

I didn't even realize his saber was orange I just thought it was red

[@Hunter_6430]

so basically orange blades are the closest you can get to Sith red without actually bleeding the crystal? I like that interpretation tbh.

[@pagado6076]

Orange is my favorite color so im happy the lightsaber color is getting some love.

[@pagado6076]

The sith orange is also alot more red. I use the Orange saber and didn't even notice the evil Jedi's was orange.

[@solocanaanite4655]

1:29 “WHERE ARE THEY?!”

[@jeremycoffen4619]

Wait isn’t the process to get yellow and purple the same? How how did mace get his?

[@gamerboi9561]

I know people are mentioning that Daegans saber is red but besides that yellow was available to Jedi widespread after the high republic too. Look at any Jedi sentinel

[@propertyclaimsprosecutor]

This is the exact meaning I assumed it was. Lol

[@wilsondavenport6939]

Ok some are saying his saber is actually red and I too use the orange saber in game, but I play in hdr with Ray tracing and idk if it’s red or orange

[@kipjones3055]

I dig it.

[@RelixYB]

There’s one hole in this, dagens saber is most definitely red. I used the orange saber in the game the first time I fought him and his saber was very much red compared to my orange. Maybe his is super dark orange but I swear it was definitely red

[@demonintellect9834]

So does that mean that Cals canonical lightsaber is orange since he uses the dark side when he is righteously furious? Dagans is definently red.

[@Ghost_-nz5dy]

Definitely the color for fallen Jedi now in cannon

[@DarkRider117]

You know I have to wonder if Revan was in canon the way he’s in legends if he’d also have an orange lightsaber

[@jsullivan649]

“His Jedi best friend” Yeah…. Yeah you missed all the signs buddy, my god.

[@musicbrush9231]

I can finally watch videos of Survivor without fear! I could've watched this video a week ago, but I decided to hold off until I finish the main story. I think a crimson blade comes from two sources (mixing both legends and cannon in this theory). One; from the bleeding effect. Two; from synthetics. However, red can only come from fully embracing the dark side. Letting go of everything related to the light to embrace power and self-preservation. Orage/blood-orange can come from similar methods, but by giving into the dark side while still clinging to the light in some way. Ignore what we know about colors and think about how the force effects the universe. We just witnessed the creation of a blood-orange blade and we know how to get a red blade. It's not a result of mixing two different colors, but more like adding a new ingredient to get a new flavor.

[@Whatthefuck27]

My theory was that orange was for people who tried to heal their lightsaber from red to white but couldn’t fully do it. (Yes I know that’s not how it would work in the color spectrum)

[@TolonusCZ]

the raiders attacking Tanalorr were not Gen'dai but the Nihil (powerful outer rim pirates). The Gen'dai Dagan refers to in the vision is Rayvis who serves him because Dagan defeated him..
