The scoundrels are mostly focused on heavy combat, aiming to take advantage of opponents and releasing such heavy shots at them that they are instantly rendered useless and killed immediately.

Shock Grenade
Enemies that typically take help from a shield to stop themselves from intaking increased damage will be stunned after the player has cast the Shock Grenade ability, as it launches a Shock Grenade in the direction of enemies that will stun them and render their energy shields.
Hidden Bounties
When players are on the battlefield and throwing piercing shots at opponents, they can deplete the opponent’s HP and eventually kill them off. After casting and upgrading the Hidden Bounties ability, players can collect “Studs,” which can be used in future purchases or upgrades.
Scattershot
Next, the Scattershot ability allows players to use their wielded weapons. After casting the ability, the weapon will shoot out a set amount of bolts in the direction of enemies, which will damage enemies nearby.
Enemy Detector
Ending the Bounty Hunter class with the Enemy Detector skill is self-explanatory, as it can detect opponents behind a wall.
Skywalker Saga Villian Class
The villain class has neatly compiled all of the worst villains that can be found amongst the best leading titles of Lego Star Wars movies and games into their class.
However, not all are villains, as some characters are undercover heroes. The main aim of the Villain class is to focus on defense + and improved combat for the player, allowing for easier victory.

Defense Droid
While in the middle of combat, players might experience that they could be running low on support. This is where Defense Droid pops in, as its main focus is to provide extra backup to players and charge forward toward enemies to break down and decimate them.
Villain Terminal Expert
This particular ability, the Villain Terminal Expert, allows players to skip through the Villain Terminal interactions to get to the main combat or open-world exploration they need to get to. The interaction skipping not only saves time but also saves effort.
Extra Ammo
The Extra Ammo is self-explanatory yet again, as it offers players the simplicity of increased weapon usage for weapons found in drop Crates. After casting the ability, the players will have increased ammo in the said weapons, allowing them to shoot and slash through enemies for an extended time.
Demolitions Expert
Lastly, Demolitions Expert lets players launch grenades that will explode in front of opponents and deplete their HP almost instantaneously, rendering them useless.
Dark Side
Dark Side: they have been set apart from classes like heroes and villains as they have truly unique abilities, and with the Force of their side, they can bring down the toughest of enemies to their knees and kill them.
The main aim of the Dark Side is to have the enemies fear the players and get scared of them, all the while supporting players with offensive buffs using the help of the Force.
Characters
That being said, how many characters are included in the dark side class? We’re glad you asked; despite a niche selection of characters available, they are all important to the players as they still help out in battle.
- Snoke
- Rey
- The Emperor
- Palpatine
- Kylo Ren
- Darth Maul
- Darth Vader
- Count Dooku

Abilities

Power Push
Upon honing and upgrading this ability using Kyber Bricks, players can use Power Push to stagger any opponents in the general radius of the ability and knock them back to cause damage to them.
Force Crush
Since the characters in Dark Side use the Force to damage foes, any enemies that have been held tight with the Force will consistently intake enhanced damage from the player’s side and eventually die off due to depleted HP.
Dark Rise
Using the help of Force Lift, players can launch opponents into the air and then plunge them down to the ground to deal increased damage. With the help of Dark Rise, the effects of Force Lift will be even more deadly.
Fear The Dark Side
As the name suggests, upgrading and casting down Fear The Dark Side will cause opponents to fear players with the ability in their arsenal and give players a chance to attack and obliterate them.
Astromech Droid
Moving onto the second last class, the Astromech Droid class is the most interesting, as it typically focuses on droids inhabiting the class instead of humans and villainous characters.
The droid class mainly focuses on supporting players in battle by providing them with abilities that will stun enemies, provide offensive buffs, and provide adequate distraction techniques! Overall, the class is unique in its ways and abilities.
Characters
The droid class features a set of characters that are not humans; rather, they are droids with different capabilities according to their systems needed to bring down enemies and achieve victory for the players. There is a wide variety of droids to choose from, as seen below:

And a few others that are more niche but are still included in the class.
Abilities
Keeping the Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga Best Class going, the Astromech Droids have abilities that can help the players out.
Super-charged
Starting with Super-charged, this ability offers to aid the player when they are in combat with enemies and launch a shockwave that will stun incoming attacks. With the shockwave in action, enemies who have launched attacks against players will instead get hurt themselves.
Droid Barge
Keeping it going, Droid Barge is another interesting ability. After upgrading this ability, while players are in motion, they can press B on their controller and instantly slide their way into opponents, making them take increased damage and deplete their overall HP.
Astromech Socket Expert
Yet another interaction skipping ability? The Astromech Socket Expert allows players to instantly skip interactions by holding down A for an extended period.
Distraction
While in combat or a tough battle, if players feel like they need more time to strategize their next move, they can cast Distraction to call down a hologram that will distract the opponents, and players can easily attack and defeat them.
Protocol Droid
The Protocol Droid. Like Astromech Droids, this class also features robots instead of dedicated seemingly “human” characters, with the characters offering their own set of abilities.
Characters
The characters for the Protocol Droid class are quite a niche and selected, yet players should have a great time with the characters if they choose this class. Here are some characters from the class:
- Tc-14
- RA-7
- R-3P0
- H1-NT
- C-3P0
- K-3P0
And some others that do not play a more significant role are niche.
Abilities
The four abilities for this class are limited and focus on targeting hits on enemies, receiving bonuses, shockwave releases, and some other basic abilities.
Turret Tune-up
Starting with Turret Tune-up, the ability solely focuses on reflecting shots that have been launched from the Terminal Turrets, and the more the reflection of the shots, the higher the chance of the shots reaching the opponents and causing them to intake increased overall damage.
Paid Translator
Any character who can translate a foreign language, such as alien languages, will earn more Studs, which can be useful when buying or upgrading core abilities.
Polished Plating
Anytime the player is in combat with opponents, the chances are that opponents will always launch attacks in the direction of the players. To help themselves, the players can upgrade and then cast down Polished Plating, which will give them a chance to reflect the bolts directly back to the enemies and deplete their overall HP.
Destructive Disassembly
A shockwave will be cast upon enemies, making them intake damage and rendering them useless.
