Super Battle Droids are the among the most versatile infantry units, being able to use both a shotgun, and missiles, as well as posessing a versatile wrist blaster.This is further counteracted by the fact that Super Battle Droids cannot use hand-held blasters (without modifying) due to their large finger-less hands.In Renegade Squadron and Elite Squadron, the Super Battle Droid can be incorrectly armed with normal blasters instead of built in ones.However, their dark appearance can allow them to blend in with the darkness. The sounds for the SBDs in-game were later recycled and re-used in the Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith video game as the sounds for Grievous' Magna Guards.The Super Battle Droid, like most of the Separatist units, only has one skin.The Super Battle Droid in Republic Commando is actually a B2-HA Super Battle Droid.The droid fighting as a torso is possibly an homage to the Terminator, when the damaged T-800 endoskeleton continued attempting to kill the characters as a damaged torso.
This trait is shared with other secondary Star Wars media such as The Clone Wars and Battlefront 2 (2017)
Despite having higher pitched voices in Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, Super Battle Droids tend to have a much lower pitched voice in Republic Commando. That could blow off a limb with a well placed shot, which makes it far less more intimidating. If you wish to maim and disarm the deadly foe, simply fire at the droid's joints between it's limbs. If hit enough times, the droid will drop dead. On specific occasions - particularly when health is depleted from an EMP grenade - the droid will fall and detach from the legs to continue fighting as a torso.Īlso, if you are the only one standing in your squad, aim for the red light port on the side of it's chest, which behind it contains valuable internal machinery and fuel circulatory veins behind it. Keep in mind, that if you tear the armor of the droid it takes more damage from fire in that area from then on. Surround the droid and focusing your squad’s fire will suffice if you are short on ammo-they'll be unable to target all of you at once and it will be overwhelmed by the oncoming fire. It will do this to every grenade variant.). It also is not very resilient against explosives, which make Thermal Detonators and the Anti Armor rifle your best friends against these brutes (Although, the Droid will project a red energy shield to partially absorb the blast. This droid has an impressive stature, and is able to be spotted in a group of droids with just a glance and a sniper can end this droid's life because of this. This droid is one of the toughest droid in Republic Commando-able to down the whole Commando squad with almost no effort, though it isn't without its weaknesses.
