Why isn't 88 considered a scoundrel?

Prev1
By definition a bounty hunter is a scoundrel. 88 is a bounty hunter. Why isn't he also a scoundrel synergizer.

    Because so far you cannot tag two factions into one char in the game. if we had races and factions he'd be a droid scoundrel

    Yeah, and Han is a Scoundrel. Chewie is a rebel. Assaj should be paired with Sith. Etc. Etc.

    Asajj is not a sith though.

    She us not a sith and can't be because of Rule of two! She is a force sensitive assassin (if there is such a thing)

    Same thing with 86.

    I thought 86 was a generic class of assassin droids whereas 88 was a unique ai model that chose a profession as a bounty hunter.

    I get that but if that's the reason then Savage is disqualified under the same rules.

    I get your point. This game may have tagged him as sith but i think he wasn't a sith either.

    Thats not what the rule of two means. The rule is there is always two, a master and an apprentice, not there can only be two, that's just a misconception bourne somewhere between Star Wars and Highlander but not true for either.

    At one point in CW there was Maul, Savage, Dooku and Sideous all active sith plus we know from the cannon without posting any more spoilers there is almost always more then two sith at any one time.

    This aside its hard to know if Ventress was ever technically Sith, as she is also a Nightsister which could indicate at this moment in her timeline might be the point where she is abandoned by Dooku and returns to Talsin.....so at this moment it's possible she cannot be considered sith anymore if, indeed she ever could be.

    There were 4. A, B, C, D.

    B was the bounty hunter.
    A was the first activated and controlled (or more to the point was the hive brain) of the others.

    Vader is Sith and Empire. No reason others shouldn't be multi-faction as well. Just cuz Han is wearing a ST costume he isn't a scoundrel?

    I would argue that, at the time, Han was not doing anything that would classify him as a scoundrel, he was saving someone.
    Keep in mind there are better arguments, I'm going to get attacked for this one.

    You just proved yourself that the game does not necessarily have to follow the lore. Therefore, IG-88 does not have to be classified as a Scoundrel.

    I proved nothing as my argument supercedes anything that might render it moot.

    Absolute gobbledygook. Anyways, how on earth does it supersede my previous comment, lol.
