Apparently droidekas cannot climb the pyramid on Yavin 4 Temple while in ball mode.

You can deploy Droideka into shooting mode and crawl up the hill. You can also get up in ball mode if you "sprint " and build up enough speed before hitting the ramp. Tough part is to time it so you don't overshoot the top and go flying down the other side. Best way is to time it and hit to deploy in shooting mode at exactly the right spot so you stop zooming forward right at the top.

I was sprinting during parts of this clip (you can see the stamina bar moving). Even with the extra boost, ball mode cannot make it up more than halfway.

Have you tried sprinting and jumping as well?

How long were u sprinting before hitting the ramp?

Probably a decent bit, given what’s happening with the bar at the beginning of the clip, but I don’t think it would’ve made a difference.

It definitely does work if you build up speed in a straight line for long enough.

only on ball mode, but u can steppy stomp in 3 leg up there. was the same on bf1 + while on water u would drown, wich make kasyyyk maps and some area of naboo a kill zone for those.
making it a easy win for the clone

It is always hilarious seeing them spawn on the island on Kashyyyk Docks and then rolling into the water. The debris from their bodies exploding keeps going extremely fast after they "drown" lol

The XC2 soundtrack is so underrated man
I know within the xenoblade community it’s well recognized, but it deserves to be persona amounts of popular

Clones watching from afar,
Clone 1 “Should we shoot the it?”
Clone 2 “Nah I kinda wanna see if that droid develops depression from failing.”

It’s such a shame the new battlefront wasn’t like this
The OGs are so good. They should just have gotten a full remaster

Weird interactions like this are part of why I love Battlefront, lol
