- The MRG-C stores a strong grappling hook with the ability to be shot 25 meters away by the droids will under its right wrist.
- Swift: The light armor allows the MRG-C model to be significantly more agile than most droids of the same nature.
- Efficient: The MRG-C model is capable of estimating the distance of its intended target with 93% accuracy, and is deadly accurate with most long- and medium range blasters. This makes it extremely dangerous when used for assassinations or other ill purposes.
- Vulnerable: The notably lighter armor that only seems to cover vital parts of it's components makes the MRG-C model notably more vulnerable to blaster fire.
- Unreliable: Due to the fact that the MRG-C is officially an unfinished model, it experiences different malfunctions from time to time. Including: [But not limited to] Jammings, unexpected rebooting, etc...
An experimental droid model originally created a decade back, the C class of Meriga's MRG battle droids never actually saw the light of day and is a very rare sight to come across. The model was supposedly created as a scout variant to Meriga's original battle droids [MRG-A], evident by their much lighter armor, slimmer figure and darker greenish colors.
The MRG-C is capable of handling and operating most long- and medium range blasters with ease and with nearly pin point accuracy, but seems to have trouble with hand-to-hand combat. It has a small grappling hook attached to a strong rope under its right wrist and has the ability to launch it toward its desired target [Up to 25 meters away] by will. The MRG-C also seems to be able to communicate fluently in at least three languages [Basic, Huttese and Droidspeak].
