Gunner Droid

The Gunner Droid is a hostile droid that begins to appear in Mount Whirl and onwards with its variations, 2.0 and 3.0, appearing more commonly in later worlds. Mega Gunner, its rare variation, may also appear as early as Sandy Canyon, albeit more rare than its other variations.

Appearance
These droids will appear green, having a glove with a hole inside of it that shoots neon, green projectiles.

Behavior
Gunner Droids will shoot green pellets out of their glove dealing 5. If you were to get close enough to this droid, it will begin to follow you.

Variations of this droid shoot faster and deal more.

Combat Tips
Dodge the bullets or use a Golden Shield if you have it. Lure the droid to you and then attack it. Make sure you have enough space to fight it, or you may take contact damage.

Trivia
