Plasma Droid
The plasma battle droid was a gargantuan, 12-foot version of the standard B1-series battle droid used by the Trade Federation. They fired lightning-like plasma blasts that were powerful enough to overwhelm even a Jedi lightsaber. They were designed to disrupt enemy infrastructure, and as a result were poorly-defended.
