It has a limited verbal vocabulary, recognizes voices and users, and responds to verbal commands.

Semi-sentient: This droid is semi-sentient, like a dog only smarter.

(Including passengers with their armor) the Basilisk can carry 900 lbs.

Minor cargo capacity: The Basilisk's claws are good for more than combat, it can carry objects as well.

Lastly, the energy is rather draining, it cannot stay active indefinitely or the battery of the droid will drain, the shield projector will melt, and the user will be ultimately screwed. Also, it can be overloaded with enough damage dealt to it. This shield works for a short period against energy attacks, it does nothing against kinetic attacks, sonic attacks, heat, cold or acid. It works for a short period, and while active there is not enough power to fire weapons like basters, lasers or other energy based weapons.

Personal Shield: The Basilisk Mk 2 supports an energy shield that covers it and rider.

As long as the user is attaching weapons of its category size, they are go for adding it to the Basilisk Mk 2. That is to say there is some common sense here, even if all 6 of those mounts were traded out, they couldn't be exchanged for a turbolaser or capital class weapons.

Modular weapon mounts: The 6 mounts and 2 launch tube mounts can be changed with ease to anything in the weapon size.
