I was watching an episode of Lego Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures, and a thought occurred in me. Before I give my thought, the main Macguffin for the first season is the Kyber Saber. It's a lightsaber with a blade made of pure Kyber Crystal that can amplify a Force User's raw power to such a degree that a relatively-normal one can use the force to telekinesize an AT-AT so easily that it seems weightless.

With that bit of background said,...
if it wasn't cast into lava at the end of the season
..., if that's how powerful a normal Force User can become when wielding it, exactly how powerful can an extremely-gifted one possibly become when wielding it? (someone like Starkiller, who can manipulate a freaking Star Destroyer in his game).

Not much change, really. Kyber crystals were standard lightsaber components. The crystals on Illum? Kyber. The crystal in Anakin's lightsaber? Kyber. In Obi-Wan's lightsaber? Kyber. In Qui-Gon's lightsaber? Kyber. In Vader and Luke's lightsabers? Synthetic kyber. Starkiller's lightsaber? Synthetic early on, actual kyber sometime after Kashyyyk.

Now the Kaiburr crystal, on the other hand...still not as dramatic as you'd think considering its legendary properties. It's an exceptionally powerful crystal for a lightsaber (among the best), but...well suffice to say that in the EU Luke, Leia, Lumiya and a few others used them in their own lightsabers (lightwhip in Lumiya's case).

I've never watched the series, but isn't it supposed to be non-canonical? I'd take it with more than a grain of salt if I were you.

Hey, someone else who remembers Splinter of the Mind's Eye. To be fair, that story's always been a sort of canonical gray area even before the post-Disney retcon. There were all sorts of details that didn't quite fit, from Leia engaging Darth Vader in a lightsaber duel and holding her own (at least for a little while) to the comic adaptation implying that Cthulhu was part of the Star Wars universe.

It's actually canon, but only in a broad sense. Imagine one of the films being reinacted by a child playing with his toys, and you have the overall idea.

Yes, but the difference is that it uses a crapton of Kyber Crystal compared to your average lightsaber (an entire blade's length, as opposed to just the core). Presumably, the absolutely massive amount used makes a Force User more powerful than they would be using a standard saber.
