How to run itRoll in at 60 ft, deploy, and pin the party with cannon fire and Blaster Volley; raise the Deflector Shield against the biggest incoming hit.

Melee destroyer droids are an early variation of the Trade Federation droideka. Developed as the ultimate melee unit, the Melee Destroyer Droid is tougher than the standard droidekas but utilizes weaker shields. The primary weapon of the grapple droideka is its lethal mechanical claws.
