Switch Droid

Switch Droids are hostile droids  that are first encountered in  Chill Hills  and can be found in all other worlds after its initial debut.

1.0
The Switch Droid 1.0, or its normal variant, has skin which is colored a very dark shade of purple, with a purple torso and wearing a Violet Guardia. It has a different face to that of normal droids, having an angry look, gritting its teeth. The face stays the same throughout the variants.

2.0
Switch Droid 2.0, its second variant, has skin which is colored a very dark shade of green, with a light green torso and a green Guardia.

3.0
Switch Droid 3.0, its third variant, has skin which is colored a very dark shade of yellow, with a yellow torso and a yellow Guardia.

Behavior
The Switch Droid acts like a normal droid, chasing the player when with fairly high  and. After around 3 seconds of chasing, it teleports behind the player, now chasing it in the opposite direction. Thankfully, it will teleport some distance away from the player giving them some time to react.

Unfortunately, all the 2.0s stats and the 1.0s speed have been yet to be determined.

Combat Tips

 * Switch Droids can deal high damage to the player if they do not anticipate the droid's teleportation so never keep you guard down while fighting these droids.


 * Switch Droids can be tricky to deal with as they frequently teleport behind the player, causing the player to run right into the droid if they are not careful. An effective way of dealing with this droid is to fight it while moving around in tight circles. Since your direction of movement is always changing, you are much less likely to run into a Switch Droid when it teleports. Additionally, when your direction of movement is constantly changing, the Switch Droid actually ends up teleporting to where you back once was.


 * Another method of dealing with Switch Droids is to utilize a ranged weapon while having your back turned towards the Switch Droid. That way, it will keep following you and will consistently teleport behind you, allowing you to simply keep shooting it until it falls.

Trivia

 * Switch Droids cannot teleport if the player they are pursuing has their back against the side walls (as they would teleport off the map).


 * Switch Droids will not teleport if they are not pursuing a player.


 * There is a possibility that there are server delays between the time when the Switch Droid determines where the player's back is facing and the time when the Switch Droid teleports, leading to it teleporting to the player's side if the player is kiting it in circles due to the player constantly changing direction.
