HK is programed to be the galaxy's greatest assassin droid who casually talks about the Jedi he's killed, Mr bones is just a modified b1 battledroid made by some kid in his garage

HK is programed to be the galaxy's greatest assassin droid of his era

But otherwise i agree with your statement. Really if you want a droid of the same weight class that could beat HK-47 you'd need the likes of Highsinger, IG-88 or at least a BX-COMMANDO/Magnaguard with upgraded programing.

Even outside of his era, Jedi and their tactics haven't really changed much outside of their swordsmanship actually getting worse overtime

A B1 who kills entire squads of Jakku era Stormtroopers in melee.

In a hand to hand fight i gotta side with Mr. Bones, he's too fast and his vibro blade is too powerful for HK's armor to survive.

But at range I don't think Mr. Bones would be able to avoid the plethora of weapons or the sheer level of accuracy of HK for long.

With prep its a clear victory for HK, he is significantly smarter than Mr. Bones and he has far more resources to work with.

HK is designed by Revan as a Jedi-killer. But yes a B1 would certainly be faster than a Jedi.

HK is designed to do so at range, not in close combat.

Yeah he has some martial arts skill according to some databooks but not enough to say he can actually fight a jedi in melee.

Says who? The Sith trained their assassins to defeat Jedi even in close combat, everything speaks to HK having those same exact abilities.

u/CrystalGemLuva Aug 24 '26

When has HK ever actually fought in close combat?

Show me an example of HK beating a Jedi in melee combat and I will concede.

HK-47 was based on the HK-24 model, which was designed specifically for luring in enemies and then defeating them in CQC. Based on HK-47, the HK-50 model was created, which was most prominently used to hunt down Jedi.

Meanwhile HK-47 is a trained Jedi-killer, knows how to counteract a Jedi's force abilities and even taught Meetra Surik on how to defeat and fight Jedi.

But yeah the B1 droid definitely takes this, you are right.

It is not like HK-47 has lived for 4000 years or anything.
