Star Wars Zero Company Astromech Guide

Astromech is the droid combat class. Any droid built after buying the Droid Repair Bay can take it. More than one can be fielded. Hawks is still required on story missions. M-3VO is related Den staff, not confirmed as an astromech chassis.

What is confirmed

  • Second specialization is locked to Analytics.
  • Only class that can take Built-In Comlink.
  • 1.1: Enhanced Scanners Invalid Target on controller, fixed; Droid Dismantler Harmony now only on droid deaths.

Weapon lean

No primary blaster and no weapon mods. Three utility slots. Cited gear: firebombs, thermal detonators, droid poppers.

Standard — Built-In Comlink

Spends 1 action point to give an ally 1 action point. Later ranks allow more transfers; the final rank removes the cap.

Passive — Extended Storage

Gives limited-use utilities extra charges, eventually 3 uses each.

Standard — Enhanced Scanners

Scans every enemy in range, cutting Defense by 4 and raising hit chance against them by 20%. Last rank can also apply Vulnerable. 1.1 fixed an Invalid Target display on controller.

Standard — Deep Target Scan

Single-target scan out to 24 m that spots the enemy, clears range and smoke penalties, and strips all Evasion.

Ultimate — Coordinate Support

10 Advantage: every ally including the droid gains +1 action point. Upgrades cut the cost; the top rank grants +2 for 6 Advantage.

Ultimate — Defensive Protocol

8 Advantage: all allies +2 Defense for the turn, scaling up to +6.

Passive — Self-Preservation

Returns 1 action point if the droid is hit by Overwatch or Retaliation.

Notes and gaps

  • A full droid squad is possible. Custom astromechs are built after the Droid Repair Bay, not as M-3VO.
