Lightsabre is an elite unique Phase BladePhase Blade found in Diablo 2 Resurrected.

Lightsabre is built around Ignore Target's Defense, which removes the target's defense from the hit calculation and with it the attack rating problem that holds back most melee builds. It only covers regular monsters, and hits are not guaranteed either, since the 95% cap still applies, but gear slots and stat points that would go into attack rating become free. The Phase BladePhase Blade base backs this up, since it cannot lose durability and sits in the fastest sword speed class in the game, with another 20% Increased Attack Speed on top.

The damage split is what keeps it relevant in Hell. Adds 60-120 Magic Damage is the important half, because magic immunity is far rarer than lightning or physical immunity, so the sword continues to deal meaningful damage against monsters that shut a pure physical weapon down. The 5-7% Mana Stolen Per Hit covers skill costs for melee builds that invest nothing in Energy.
