Plasma battle droid



The plasma battle droid was a variation of the standard B1 battle droid used by the Trade Federation, and a gargantuan version of the flame battle droid. Their plasma blasts were powerful enough that they could overwhelm a lightsaber. These units were distinguished from their B1 battle droid cousins by the green coloration of the droid's shoulder plates and enormous height.

These units' plasma blasts and appearance made them both formidable and deadly, however they were extremely inaccurate as well as clumsy. Only two plasma battle droid units were ever created and were used to guard the Theed Hangar Great Hall for a short time during the Invasion of Naboo. Both droids were destroyed by Jedi soon after the First Battle of Theed.
