- Advanced Combat Programming
- Extremely Agile
- Advanced Combat Programming - SB-X Commando Droids possess advanced combat programming, making them extremely effective commandos and bodyguards. They are capable of adapting their tactics and strategies on the fly, and are capable of independent operations with no oversight from their commanders once deployed, when needed.
- Extremely Agile - SB-X Commando Droids weigh a lot less than most of Darth Xyrah's battle droid designs with no loss of durability, and are capable of great acrobatic feats in the midst of combat, such as leaping off walls and conducting parkour in the middle of a battle with great ease.
- Expensive - Given their advanced designs and programming compared to other battle droids, these units are largely ill suited to be fielded in mass produced numbers due to their cost of production, meaning it'd be quite expensive to deploy them in army sized numbers.
- Weak to Ion Weaponry - As droids, they are still vulnerable to ion weaponry like most mechanical beings.
Intended to be the successors of the successful BX-series Droid Commando line once used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, the development and construction of SB-X Droid Commandos were personally overseen by Darth Xyrah. Combat data acquired from the Kainite's elite Blackblade troops was used to help shape the programmining of the SB-X units, as well as various other sources from across the larger galaxy. An emphasis was made to ensure the SB-X was also just as nimble as it's predecessor, making them just as deadly, if not more so due to the updated design and combat programming.
These units serve well in many roles. As well as commandos and assassins, they are equally capable of acting as bodyguards to high ranking officers and other individuals considered high priority, making them highly versatile in their usage.
