    I wish Target Locked couldn't be removed or it removes more TM from enemies on his special and/or gain more TM for itself with its unique, but it's still great. I just want to see his actual stats now. He looks pretty tanky, I just hope his speed is good too.

    So does it gain 6% tm at the end of its own turn?

    Also I'm calling it right now. His nickname is IPD

    That's not a nickname, that's an acronym.

    I'm digging it.

    That's what I meant lol. Couldn't think of the word for it so I just went with "nickname".

    It's not an acronym, it's an initialism. An acronym has to spell something.

    So does this mean we will get an instant 2*s on dark side missions if we use Self Destruct?

    So what happens when Emperor Palapatine used his self heal allowing probe droid to one shot someone from the get go?

    Man, IPD is going to be great for clearing difficult nodes in GW!

    How does his self destruct work via raids? Because it would become the most useless toon in a raid if it doesn't do a couple million in damage.

    Perhaps he is not for raids. And perhaps that's fine.

    Oooh yess. With this lil guy maybe my Imperial arena team will hold better on defense.

    I don't remember seeing ROLO in any raid compositions either, who cares, and it's very likely that "IPD" (yes, an acronym) will be obtained the same as her in the Dark Side TB.

    And never give a droid a gender

    I just say "he" because it makes it easier to read since "it" can be a noun and a pronoun. That sentence had "it" in it twice before I got my statement across, so it can be confusing if you say "it" so many times to name something.

    So, just thinking here. Emperor Palpatine takes a chunk of allies' health with his second special. Will that be an instant trigger for probe droid?

    @CG_Kozispoon when are his stats going to be revealed? And what characters are required to unlock him through dark side territory battles?

    Could be a pain with the target lock buff block and could be a tool to kill apesky zarris who is low in health but keeps healing since its just says 30% health liss

    Why is this character listed under "STRATEGY GUIDES"

    and not under the section, "TERRITORY BATTLE CHARACTER KITS" ?

    Actually an acronym does have to spell something that can be spoken, otherwise it's just an abbreviation.

    NATO isn't a word, but you can pronounce it like one, therefore it is an abbreviation that is also an acronym. IPD is an abbreviation, but it isn't an acronym.

    Hmm. i'm trying to convince myself IPD could be good with resistance too since there are resistance droids that will give him tm, but he'll still go far less than the resistance will so it probably isn't viable.

    Then again. being able to keep a taunt from popping up with target lock= buff immunity in an endless turn could be worth having one slow member.
