Light Eco is the rarest of all Eco, it appears only in The Precursor Legacy and Jak 3, in which Jak changes into Light Jak.

[edit] Information

In the original game the Blue Sage said that Jak has an unusual ability to channel Eco, which may account for some of the abilities granted to him by Eco. The Oracle statue also mentions, that Jak has "the light within" hinting that he is no ordinary youngster. Count Veger was also aware of his abilities, which he admitted wanting to use in his experiments. Even Baron Praxis angrily says at the beginning of Jak II that he was informed that "this one would be different", likely by Veger. Apparently Jak lost this inner light after his exposure to Dark Eco but the Oracle at the temple granted him new powers in return for his heroics during the second installment of the series.

There is no Eco Sage of Light Eco, but the Precursors and life itself appear to be closely linked to it.

[edit] Games

[edit] The Precursor Legacy

In The Precursor Legacy Jak uses Light Eco, apparently channeled there by the four Eco Sages which combined Red, Yellow, Blue and Green Eco. Jak is then able to use his newfound powers to destroy Gol and Maia's Precursor Robot on top of the Dark Eco Silo

[edit] Jak 3

Light Jak

In Jak 3, Jak visits the Monk Temple and is given light powers by the Precursors through an Oracle. He then gains new abilities as Light Jak and his Dark side is also repressed.

Jak also collects four Light Eco Crystals by racing the Monks on a Leaper Lizard, Beating the Turret challenge, fighting off enemies in the Precursor Temple and Fighting Cyber Errol for the first time.

Light Eco can be found in Vents at Spargus City, Main Town Ruins and the Monk Temple and sometimes dropped by enemies.

[edit] Daxter

Count Veger mentioned wanting to create Light Eco Warriors

[edit] Notes

  • It is interesting to note that Jak was able to use Light Eco offensively in The Precursor Legacy to destroy Gol and Maia's Precursor Robot, but that all of Light Jak's powers are defensive.
  • Strangely, in The Precursor Legacy Light Eco looks somewhat like a cloud, while in Jak3 it loks more like a star or a ball of energy.
