* UnintentionallySympathetic:
** Senator Trell. Yes, he's a CorruptPolitician allied with TheCartel, but other than that, his dirtiness mostly just falls under InformedAttribute territory -- and he even ends up trying to back out altogether (albeit merely out of cowardice instead of actual altruism, but still...). And yet he's ultimately [[spoiler:given a '''''long''''' (due to his penthouse's sheer height) DisneyDeath by Fett even after telling him what he wants to know -- and for no given reason other than just "he won't be missed."]]
** Bendix Fust. Yes, he's a cowardly drug-dealer, but he's nonetheless stuck in a maximum-security HellholePrison while having to live in 24/7 fear of his BadBoss managing to get him. And when [[spoiler:Zam eventually shows up and proves him ProperlyParanoid]], he practically begs her to just shoot him instead of dragging him off to a CruelAndUnusualDeath by said boss. [[spoiler:She doesn't, instead forcing him through a massive and brutal prison riot to cover their escape, and then Fett eventually shows up to partner with her -- pretty much sealing Fust's fate right then and there. And later on, the very last thing that you ever hear of him is Zam's casual comment that he's currently being tortured by said boss -- exactly what Fust feared the most.]]

** You'd think with all the buildup to it, the second Krayt Dragon fight would be a very hard boss encounter, but as long as Jango sticks to the ground (and out of the way of merciless rocket launchers surrounding Gardulla's chamber) it's a very easy, if tedious, boss fight, because the Krayt Dragon is just so slow and such a huge target, that you can practically walk circles around it while pummeling it with your rockets and blasters.

* AntiClimaxBoss: All three of the boss encounters with Montross are insultingly easy (and anticlimatic, given Jango's rivalry with him);
** Your first fight inside the Industrial Sector; Jango can literally just run in circles and whittle down his health without getting shot once.
** After the tough Death Stick factory level on Malastare, you're treated to a very easy boss fight with Montross, who just flies around on a skiff, moving as slow as molasses as he shoots at you or occasionally fires a rocket at you, and can be quickly pummeled with your own rockets or even just your blasters.
** On the Burial Moon, you fight him one last time, but this time, Montross has his Mandalorian armor fully equipped. Despite this, it's barely any harder than the previous fights, since Montross isn't that smart or resilient of an opponent, and if you ''do'' die during the fight and come back, his health will remain the same.

** Gardulla the Hutt's Palace is a rather short and straightforward combat level, and while it can be annoying, it's much easier than the really hard desert canyon level preceding it. The Krayt Dragon is also a very easy boss to fight as long as you stick to the ground.



** The Bando Gora you encounter late in the Death Stick factory on Malastare. They're quiet as a mouse and very good at sneak attacking and swarming Jango, and can chew through his health in seconds. And then there are some that can shoot very accurate, rapid fire poison darts at you from a distance.

* ThatOneBoss: While most of the boss fights are a cakewalk, Longo Two Guns is no joke. His level is frustrating enough as it is, but it tops it off with a cramped room stuffed to the brink with heavily armed mooks who will mop the floor with you if you don't stay on your toes and avoid trying to take on Longo head-on--Longo is also [[DamageSpongeBoss astoundingly resilient]], drawing out the fight even longer.

* BreatherLevel: After the one-two punch of Oovo IV and the brutal first level of Malastare, the second part of Malastare just has you escort Zam Wesell. Aside from the last stretch where you're at the mercy of rocket launching mooks, its a short and easy change of pace before you're thrown into the tough as nails death stick factory. Unlike most escort missions, Zam is in no real danger and just waits for you to kill all the mooks before she makes her move, which helps makes the level a big relief.
