The Sabaoth Frigate served as a capital ship within the mercenary squadron led by Captain Cavik Toth in the era preceding the Clone Wars. These Frigates fought in conjunction with the larger Sabaoth Destroyers.
These U-shaped starships, known as Sabaoth Frigates, possessed four powerful laser cannon emplacements and tractor beam systems, leading to their common nickname: 'tractor beam ships'.
During the attack on Nod Kartha, a group of Sabaoth Frigates, supported by Sabaoth Starfighters, launched a surprise attack against Nym and the Lok Revenants. The Sabaoth Squadron, despite having a significant numerical advantage, failed to stop Nym's team from landing on the planet and obliterating the trihexalon production facility.
Upon the Revenants' return to orbit, they clashed with the Sabaoth Squadron in a struggle for control of a crippled planetary defense gun. As this intense conflict unfolded, three Sabaoth Frigates materialized from hyperspace, positioning themselves behind the Revenant vessels.
By focusing their tractor beams on the Tritus, the Sabaoth Frigates aimed to prevent the Revenants from escaping back to Lok. However, Nym's skilled pilots managed to eliminate the tractor beam ships, enabling them to escape with the cannon components.
