You can find Darth Vader in Piney Lane, which is a small island on the northwestern part of the map. You'll come across an Imperial Camp near the location, which is inhabited by Stormtroopers and Darth Vader. Take the fight against Stormtroopers, loot their E-11 Blasters, and then go against Darth Vader. Once you've defeated Darth Vader, he will drop tons of valuable loot and his iconic Lightsaber.

Darth Vader's Lightsaber can be used to Attack and Block, but it also comes with additional moves if you use it properly. You can use the Shoot button to attack, and your character will perform multiple moves and combos depending on how many you press the button. First, the character will perform two quick attacks and then an incredibly powerful spin attack.
You can Block incoming attacks by pressing and holding the Aim button. While you're blocking, you can evade attacks with the Jump button.
