Both active droids begin by using {{KotOR|Shields|Energy Shield Level 2}}, absorbing the first 30 points of energy damage. However, even when shields are down they have {{KotOR|Combat|Damage Resistance}}: Resist 15/- vs. Energy, so energy weapons (most {{~|Blaster pistols|blaster pistols}}, {{~|Blaster rifles|blaster rifles}}, {{~|Heavy weapons|heavy weapons}} and {{~|Lightsabers|lightsabers}}) are still ineffective.


{|cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background:#ffdddd; text-align:left" width=100%
However, you can return the favor if you or Bastila are character level > 8 and have Improved {{~|Force powers|Energy Resistance}}, as this trivializes all damage of which the droids are capable: their {{KotOR|Special weapons|Carbonite Projector}} and {{KotOR|Special weapons|Flame Thrower}} won't damage at all if a successful Reflex save is made against {{~|Difficulty Classes|DC}} 15, and only a maximum critical hit will result in a single point of energy damage from their ranged attacks (and none at all with Improved {{KotOR|Feats|Toughness}} or Zaalbar's {{KotOR|Feats|Wookiee Toughness}}).
