HK-47 vs The Emperor

Yep. Which is why I said 'in the first place'.

I find it hard to believe you thought Fishy meant a straight fight. I mean he was saying it to you, no one else.

I didn't mean a straight fight ever, HK wouldn't stand a chance in a straight fight.

Fishy says he can take Emperor Palpatine. Is this true?

Setting: Death Star II

The emperor

Hk has no chance

The Emperor..........

Even if it was an attempted assassination, Palpatine is extremely precognitive...HK, being a droid, is very vulnerable to the force as well. In all likelihoods, this is one dead droid no matter what.

He's brilliant but his ability to see the future is somewhat lacking at times, and I doubt he will be able to see through HK-47 who has shown more then enough ability to preform other functions if its needed. And he isn't going to check everything on the Death Star... Its still very likely that HK will fail, its going to be damned hard to asssassinate somebody like Sidious but not entirely impossible, if the Death Star still has people in it there will probably be a really high casualty rate before HK gets shot.

It's only truly lacking involving force users like the Skywalkers or Yoda-those the lightside would favor. As for people in the Death Star...one shot of an ion cannon and HK's done.

Well yeah, but that goes everywhere. If HK has the time however if he can just do what assassins do he could do a lot of damage to well everything around him, most likely not kill Palpatine but still do a lot of damage. And you aren't honestly going to tell me that you think Palpatine is constantly checking for traitors or assassins on his ship, and trying to feel the emotions of every single last person and droid there, if its even possible to feel the programming of a droid.

I doubt he'd have to...if something was up, he'd get an instinctive warning

Fishy im sorry to ask this but are u a HK fan boy?
In the game he is kinda weak and a Sith lord would kill him instantly

Fishy has said that in a straight up fight HK will lose badly, but in an assassination attempt (like a sneak attack) HK has a chance of winning.

A tiny chance, but a chance, I suppose

Yeah, Mace was taken out by some thugs when he wasent prepared, I guess one of the best assassin droids could threaten Palpatine.

Well not a big chance, assassinating somebody like Palpatine is going to incredibly hard, even for a skilled assassin like HK.

When was Mace taken out by thugs?

Shatterpoint.

Who said anything about a big chance?

This thread only started beause Escape didn't believe that HK-47 would have any chance whatsoever, when in fact he does have a slim chance of assasinating him.
