The lightrapier, a specialized form of lightsaber, was the preferred weapon of the Yiang. It was longer than the average lightsaber, and the hilt was usually much smaller. This addition allowed the bearer to utilize faster jabs and swings, but gave up most of its power. The technology in the lightrapier was quite different from other light-weapons. It used a series of cortosis-coated mirrors to reflect the beam in several directions; this technology was lost after the Yiang died out.

abstract
  • The lightrapier, a specialized form of lightsaber, was the preferred weapon of the Yiang. It was longer than the average lightsaber, and the hilt was usually much smaller. This addition allowed the bearer to utilize faster jabs and swings, but gave up most of its power. The technology in the lightrapier was quite different from other light-weapons. It used a series of cortosis-coated mirrors to reflect the beam in several directions; this technology was lost after the Yiang died out. Several advantages of the lightrapier were its increased length, swift strokes, and the size of the hilt. These advantages were off-set by two major disadvantages. It lost most of its power, and, it was harder to parry or block strikes at close range.
