This droid makes sense as a sentry, combat model, or even a bodyguard but as an assassin? The thing is so bulky it sticks out like a sore thumb, and heaven help it if it uses the stairs. It’s so top heavy that when it tries to negotiate steps it will be like that scene from Robocop.
Assassin Droid? Thing looks more like a Battle Tank Droid than an Assassin Droid. B2s were much better for frontline infantry needing to be massed and thrown at the enemy. But these guys, with all their advanced weapons and sensors, would be great shock tanks used in assault roles. The story of the E522 that saved Da'n was really heartwarming with how he reunited with him later on when in Lady Valarian's service.
They were probably considered assassins because they rarely ever left anything alive to see them just like how that one droid though bombing an entire stadium was somehow the best assassin tactic to use on a governor lol
The droid Skynet from the Terminator movies,want to add to their fine collection of murder robots only a murderous A.I. can like, love and treat as a child
It really took a lot of creativity to scrounge together and fabricate b-roll for these droids that never actually showed up in any video media or comic books or even videogames.
I remember reading about these droids back in the day when I purchased the essential guides 1 and 2. It's a good choice. If you take requests, is there any information on the D1? I think it's called that anyway. One of the better flying B1 variants, in my opinion, if for no other reason than it has glowy energy wings. Cheers
Why the hell is Disney bringing back all the Legends crap that didn't make sense? I thought the whole point of making the Legends split happen was to make sure that they could delete the weird nonsensical stuff, like this droid with mini-tank treads and an hourglass figure that will break after 10 seconds on the battlefield. This is a great video, GJ and thanks for the excellent effort, but it's depressing that they won't quit messing with the lore and un-retconning weird things.
No, the whole point is that Pablo Hidalgo is a fan of all the weird stuff in EU, like this droid and 80s Marvel comics, and is not a fan of stuff fans actually like, stuff like Mara Jade and other superpopular things. You couldn't have found a worse guy to reboot the EU. Then you have Dave Filoni who likes to do dumb shit with wolves and it was never going to make more sense than EU.

I bet these things prefer the " nobody can see me if they are all dead" route of assassination
There’s nowhere you can hide, except upstairs.
The droid: .starts flying like a dalek lol.
Tho it probably could go up stairs just fine with it's powerful tracks
it can still shoot you
I’m already picturing one or two of these droids being a perfect sentry especially for shield generators

They're clearly security droids.
The droid Skynet from the Terminator movies,want to add to their fine collection of murder robots only a murderous A.I. can like, love and treat as a child
Also to Ed series in RoboCop
Had a couple of these when I played Star Wars miniatures and always thought they looked super cool
More obscure droid knowledge brought to light and added to my obscure star wars knowledge file in my brain
I heard of these droids. I wonder if they'll appear in the next Jedi game or maybe even that outlaw one
0:48 - You can see a Pepe face in the art 😂.
3:30 might be an editing error, Meta! just letting you know
I wonder if the comms and targeting data get rendered useless.... 3:28
In my opinion this is the Star Wars version of the Sentry bot from the Fallout franchise!
Right off the bat, a droid and a Gamorian is sent down to the rancor pit.
It really took a lot of creativity to scrounge together and fabricate b-roll for these droids that never actually showed up in any video media or comic books or even videogames.
Could you please make a video on the ecosystems of Dathomir
Imagine this droid with HK-47 personality and you are its lucky owner 😁.
The ED209 of the Star Wars universe

How interesting
Reminds me of the ED-260 from Robocop.
it looks like toy story zurg's robots upgrade design
This is literally just the Robot from the 90’s Lost in Space reboot. Like exact same design somehow.
This should be in the Terminator series not The Star Wars series
Tyranus Dooku and Qui Gon Jin Biographies please?
WOAH!

blinded character or species wouldnt be affected by lights at all. ever. ot even a little
Hello
Today is my birthday 🎂
hmm
Just saying the wording of the title doesn’t make much sense
Thanks I changed it but missed that
Bruh, they got thin hips.
calling battlefields battlefronts sounds so stupid even canonically
Terrible ugly design.
Ah yes a droid specalizing in the quietest form of assassination, shelling with HE ordinance.
Nobody can notice you if they're all dead.
