LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga - Tips and Tricks You NEED To Know! 

Bonus tip: Hit DOWN on the Directional Pad to bring up the regional Map. (I literally just discovered this lol) Also, Here is a video on how to GET RICH FAST & A Money Farm ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zKzGXW_iVwk.html

The fact that attract studs is just a general upgrade is ridiculously OP

an important thing to note for the "play through the story mode first" thing for characters. even if you get a scavenger character beforehand (like from the mando dlc or codes) you still have to do Reys scavenger mission in order to use scavenger abilities, the game doesnt tell you this and its the only class where this happens.

I started yesterday and literally wanted to have every single mini kit and all that, thanks for the advice to do the all the story first. I'm definitely gonna do that !

Additional tip: when doing the terminals that require directional inputs, you dont need to wait until the circle is all the way in the middle. As soon as the two circles overlap, you can press the direction and it will count. Hope this makes someones life just a little bit easier ☺️

Another thing people should keep in mind, from my experience so far. There’s a ton of bugs in this game that go unnoticed until you notice them, like “spear we go again” the droid doesn’t show me a hologram of the person I need to find and I closed the game and it showed me it finally. I was running around aimlessly not realizing the game screwed up. This game has quite a few bugs so just keep it in mind

I played a lot of lego games, instinctively i did everything in this, i just wanted to point out, the best way to collect studs is in space. In Lego Star Wars The clone wars III it was my main source of income at the very beginning. Its the same on The Skywalker Saga. Space Battles give you 5 or 10k, and every 1 to 2 battles you get a Capital Ship wich gives you around 200k. In a few minutes i collected 1 million and proceded to buy the stud multiplier. The game is awesome ^^ I just wish they included the ground battles again

I havent played a lego star wars since the one on ps2 like 15 years ago and wow. Wow, wow, wow. This is what the game felt like to my imagination as a kid and its bigger than ever now as an adult. Freaking awesome.

Just so people know. The Abilities that give you studs, such as hidden bounties for bounty hunters and the translator for protocols do get affected by stud multipliers. The max hidden bounties pays out is 750. That can be 1500 for x2, 3000 x4, 4500 x6 and so on. And the stud multipliers can stack so the max multiplier of is 3840 which would give you 2.8 mil for one kill as a bounty hunter. So max out those stud multipliers and stud perks first to make studs a thing of the past.

7:30 instead of using a 2nd controller you can use the force on a droid like R2-D2 or c3p0 and then swap to them to get a collectible

I love that there is a droid in episode 1 in naboo hanger that offers a survey and doing it unlocks a character

You can deactivate any upgrade by hovering over it and pressing X or Square. If you don’t want collectible detector or extra health for more difficulty, you can use that

Unlock the Wampa and just walk around Cloud City to farm studs. He destroys everything he comes near but is not slow and unweildly like the Rancor. Recommended to play as in Freeplay as even going from objective a to be he will be collecting studs just by walkking, not having to manually destroy objects.

Also worth mentioning that in order to buy the stud multipliers you'll need to find datacards as well.

Brick comets become stud comets after their brick is taken. If you have at least two comets like this, you can jump back and forth between the systems and farm them for a surprising number of studs. Just a little shortcut for getting the stud multipliers a little faster, which will make the comets drop more studs. Yeah, it's kind of cheap, but it's an option if you're tired of breaking everything all the time and really want a card upgrade. And, yes, this took me hours (i.e. days worth) to finally look into and be annoyed that I didn't actually do the math earlier.

Here are my tips, and yes I did learn things from this video: You have to get all three beginning core perks to get the extra health so you can get the two important perks, Stud Magnet, and Collectible Detector. Though we do have the internet so you can save your kyber bricks and not get Collectible Detector. After the two core perks you want to go for the protocol droid perk that pays you for translating. You’ll be doing this a lot anyways might as well get paid for it. You can advance it however far you want. The next perk would the be the bounty Hunter perk that pays you for kills you make as a bounty Hunter. Some places have unlimited spawning enemies, so why not go for it. There are codes out there, and no they don’t break achievements, that you enter in extras that will supply you with basically every character class. So no. You don’t have to complete the story or buy any characters to start unlocking things. So just enter the codes for free characters. To get the Scavenger abilities do the Force Awakens first mission with Rey. She will build the tools and keep them. This will help you with kyber brick hunting. And yes, most important thing is to save studs for the multipliers. It has always been that way for Lego games. Once you get the first three multipliers getting the others won’t take long. And once you get all of them you’ll be able to afford any character by going through one mission. The stud multipliers also help with getting true Jedi status on missions which gets you a kyber brick. More tips: You can sometimes stand on mounts. Something like Banthas on Tattooine. Just stand on them and jump from them. Jedi’s backflips are usually higher jumps, but with someone like Qui-Gon you can swing twice to initiate combo and then jump twice and he will start his air combo which gets him some good height. Others might have combos that can help with maneuvering as well.

The studs multiplier is what I look forward to the MOST in LEGO games. It is SO useful, and it’s SO fun to see how far you can go through a level with 2,384 stud multipliers ALL together.

Rey, the Force Awakens one at least, is super beginners friendly. She is a Scavenger with a double jump, has access to Scavenger tools, has a melee weapon, and also has a blaster. So she is a good one to add to your character selection to use in free roam to get kyber crystals.

Grateful for the tips bud! Just started my play through yesterday, absolutely loving the game ❤

One of the few games that is even better then i thought it would be

in saber battles counter cash is great cause of the 25 blow counters that happen every so often

06:08 i recommend to not unlock this before you finished the story for the first time. maybe you wanna play for the story in the first run and grind every gear and unlockable later. those markers on your screen can really distrack you from the game

Save up your first 1 mil studs and get the data card for the first stud multiplier. Since it’s a multiplier it actually takes the same amount of time to upgrade to the next tier multiplier. Destroying cloud city in the walkers is a fast method to get studs. I now have all the stud multipliers for a few hours worth of work and over 1 billion studs to finish the story mode with.

These are good tips, the first one I made sure to unlock was to attract studs leveled it up all the way. Good video

Another reason to play the story first, the scavengers don't have their abilities until you either do the 4th level on The Empire Strikes Back or the first level on Episode 7 as these levels teach you how to use them (as well as give you the abilities for them).

This video honestly helped me a ton. Thanks man.

one thing that i noticed is if you play by yourself you can use the force to lift your outer droid with the force and then change to it or use the force push. It can help you collect kyber bricks in difficult positions.

I got jango as soon as i could for the simple fact that he has a working jet pack so its even easier to cheese some kyber bricks by going around or forcing yourself up a wall but its worse than gliding if its a long distance its more to get close enough to grapple and skip with parts with net cannon or some weird way you would normally have to get up. Also astro mech skill tree has one for the extra studs GET IT because well every level in the original has like 3 to 4 if not more for the astromech. Also for stud multipliers its a million straight studs per upgrade if you have all past multipliers active so each one might take you around 4 to 5 levels to get that because most of the time you get around 200k to 250k straight studs a level maybe more. After x8 you can buy anything you want if you don't mind waiting for 10x because you are getting a x384 stud multiplier ever want true jedi by getting one blue stud? now you can. also Datacards are universal don't think you have to go in order, yes I recommend the x2,x4,x6,x8 multipliers first but after that you can get anything because how much money you get. You can see what parts of a map might have a data card by looking at them before you warp to it the places that have it can only have one that isn't ONE PER WORLD I think or or two worlds have 2 datacards in 2 different locations.

I finally just picked this up. I played all the other SW games besides new trilogy ones. This is going to be my first voiced Lego game. Super excited

I used to come to you for Star Wars battlefront 2 videos and now I’m here for Lego Star Wars. Good to be back

A couple of nice ones to include are that the hero terminals are not actually timing based, as soon as the button prompt touches the circle, you can do the thing, and another great upgrade is the bounty hunter spread shot, this makes it easier to hit enemies in combat, and makes destroying gold objects faster, yet another great one is that you can deactivate unnecessary abilities (like the extra health ones) meaning you can get all the upgrades, but have certain ones not on

A lot of the combat tips are in the hint menu so look there for more information if any of this was unclear, there are also smaller combat things that are not said here that are explain in that menu

I’m addicted to how fun and vast and well made this game is.

So keen to play this game! Thanks for the tips Swany, and great review of the game earlier today!

Just got the game and played the first two episodes and your Intel is spot on thank you so much 💯👍👍👍

A nice tip is don't leave the high ground level. I did this as the screen went blurry and now that mission is totally gone until they patch the game. Shocking that they missed that during testing.

Also would recommend buying Jango/Boba Fett for free play, their jet pack allows a triple jump if pressed multiple times not held down and can be an easy way getting to hard to get kyber bricks or getting that extra height needed for a tall grapple and saber users have an AOE attack if just pressing A+B if you need to destroy close together objects quickly.

You don’t have to cut holes to break open doors- just slide left and then right back (or up then back down)

Awesome video 🔥 great tips!!

I've never played but I'm going to start today. So excited!

Thanks for the tips, I'll save it to rewatch it later.

Bounty hunter 4 bolt upgrade shreds enemies. You can force lift your companion as a droid and then switch to them to skip some puzzles

In addition to the hero and villain terminal bonus studs, there’s similar upgrades for both types of droids and one for bounty hunters that gives you studs after killing an enemy

With stud multipliers counter cash can be pretty good. Not amazing but you could probably buy a small character with one counter

Other good class upgrades for money are the astromech upgrade to get money for the puzzles and the bounty hunter upgrade that gives you some money for each kill

Regarding buying health upgrades, unfortunately you have to purchase them to progress through the upgrade tree. I wanted stud magnet but it would not let me because I had not bought previous upgrades.

I love how easy it is to cheese some of these kyber bricks. If I find a kyber brick in the air I just use the force on r2 and pull him to it lol

Probably the best tips I've listened to thank you very helpful 😊

Finally getting around to this one. Thank you Xbox Gamepass I’m a few hours in and it’s clear that these are some of the best starter tips ever. Super helpful. Hear a lot of these types of videos about starting video games but these seem more on point to starters than other starter tips to other games often are. I didn’t know many of these after 3 hours

5:41 btw you don't need to wait for the direction to go in the circle, once it touches the edge it will let you press it

Needed this thanks man

That´s very helpfull at all! Thank you

For one brick I used Luke to force lift C3PO onto a ledge then changed C3PO into Luke and changed the original Luke into C3PO and force lifted C3PO onto a higher ledge to get the brick.

Great stuff!!! Thanks a lot

I got the game a few days ago but haven't played much And i was worried that there wasn't going to be any fight/combat in free roam and thankfully your video confirmed for me that there is

Great vid, very helpful

With counter cash, you can glitch out a Roger Roger droid, and make him invincible. Then you can have unlimited counters, all you have to do to make him take damage is run to a different area and come back

Thank you for the tips man. Late but just got the game

Thank you for the tips I really needed these

Thank you for this video I learned some good tips. 👍🏼

Great video, really helpful thank you.

Great tips! Thanks so much!

This was very helpful. Thanks!

Helped a lot, thank you!

NOTE: Free play is NOT available from the start! You will have to play a bit first (maybe one misson or so, i unlocked it after finising Episode 1, so maybe its 1 Episode)

7:11 you can also do this by switching between to characters using the bumpers

Great tips! Thanks for making this.

this video help me in the game thx SwanyPlaysGames :)

thank you bro i cant wait to play

Good to know you can do free roam before playing the story I hope to do free roam first collecting data cards for the extras stud multipliers

turned off the “homing shots” option thought that was pretty neat. always had a gripe about my blaster beams following ppl and coming out the barrel sideways

Thank you! Not a single site has said exactly how to mind trick!

to buy the extra's such the x2 ect you find the data disks that are all over the game they have taken the place of the red bricks that you would find in older lego games but on skywalker you can choose witch ones you want to get

Great tips thanks ⚡️

Great video thanks

I have a tip also. Ground slam attacks have an aoe (area of effect) which mens doing that around multiple things that you can break will make it take less time to break things so you don’t have ti punch or shoot everything

I didn't know them all so this helped a lot

I love the face Obi-wan is giving in the thumbnail 😂

i love the way you can use the force in this game most of the time i’m fighting as a jedi i won’t even use my lightsaber 😂

Can’t wait for work to be over!

Kind of ironic how battle droids won't shoot Vader when he's literally Anakin and the Empire is everything the CIS feared the Republic would become

This is a great video for people who are new to LEGO games. Not so much for people who played LEGO games for a long time. Still a great video. Did you know when flying a ship pressing Lb and Rb at the same time while moving left or right makes you turn around not that loop thing.

Thank you so so much 🙏

Really good watch!!

My tip to you guys is to use a bounty hunter class character cause they are neutral

Thanks mate,you really are a helpful

i haven’t played lego star wars since the game boy… this new game is so complex and detailed it’s crazy

another tip: those random space battles give a ton of money for the time you spend there. try to farm those if you need money

Bro this is going to help so much 1mil/10 tips ( I played the whole campaign of the game so I’m a bit late)

The tip for the abilities THANK YOU

Picking up this game in 2 weeks when I get paid again. I’m extremely excited cuz this is the first Lego Star Wars game I’ve played since Star Wars 3 the clone wars

Nice. Thanks

fun fact. If you do not have a scavenger yet you can reach almost all the net launcher and glider areas using the 2 player trick where one is a jedi and one is a droid and just force lift the droid to the area. if a protocal droid they can lift themselves up on a ledge. My bro and i got tons of scavenger stuff before we had a scavenger unlocked

Never played a lego game before. Just want to say how GOOD and FUN this title is.

Thanks a lot!

I love that the studs have more use now instead of buying characters vehicles and “special brick powers” and then never using them lol 😁

I appreciate the tips .

I just bought this game and I find myself endlessly trying to figure out how what I can get to right from the beginning lol I haven't played a lego star wars game before but it is a ton of fun! The dialogue is so silly, seeing the droids just bang their heads against the hyperdrive to fix it is just silly and I love it lol I'll be sticking to these tips because I spent for a rumor or two and I was like woah this is expensive lol now I know what to look out for :D

The first perk you need is a stud multiplier

Start to finish is what i did but then i realzied i loved the prequels so started doing q episode from from my keast favorite to my favorite and to play them like that even if its not jn order at all i do 7,4,1,85,2,9,6, and 3 then free mode
