Behavior

 * Rapid-Fire Droids will shoot many neon /pellets out of their glove dealing (color and ranged damage depends on the variant). If you were to get close enough to this droid and enter its, it will begin to chase you like any normal droid but will continue to shoot if you exit its.


 * The Rapid-Fire Droid fires its cannon 8 times a second, a much faster rate to that of Gunner Droids . While rapid-fire pellets deal lower damage than regular pellets ( compared to ), the overall DPS of the Rapid-Fire Droid's ranged attack is much higher.


 * Each variant increases its by 1000,  by 2 and  by 1.

Combat Tips

 * Rapid-Fire Droids Droids fire pellets very quickly, making them dangerous from afar. However, these pellets can be dodged by moving in a zig-zag manner and jumping over the stream of pellets when needed (think of it as a long jump rope). Not only that but you can use objects (such as rocks) or other Droids as shields to block the oncoming onslaught of pellets.


 * As Rapid-Fire Droids cannot aim upwards or downwards, getting onto higher ground can allow you to avoid being hit by the pellets.


 * It is not advised to used  against Rapid Fire Droids as the projectiles can collide with the pellets, despawning the projectile before it has the chance to hit the droid itself. Thankfully, this can be counterbalanced with slingshots as they shoot in a parabolic trajectory, going over the pellets.


 * Make sure you have enough space to fight it, or you may take contact damage but don't exit its or the Rapid-Fire Droid will start to continue shooting.


 * The Golden Shield negates all completely, allowing you to safely approach Rapid-Fire Droids without having to dodge their pellets. You can also use any form of  such as consuming an Apple Pie if you don't have a Golden Shield.


 * Rapid-Fire droid pellets are much more threatening when you are simultaneously fighting other Droids so if possible, fight the Rapid-Fire Droid(s) first before killing the other droids present in the current room.


 * Since the Magnifying Glass doubles the of all droids in the room, it can be used to increase the Rapid-Fire Droid(s), making it much easier for you to  the Rapid-Fire Droid(s).
 * It does have its downsides though as if there are other droids in the current room with the Rapid-Fire Droid(s), you would increase their aswell.

Trivia

 * Rapid-Fire Droids are one of the two droids which can shoot pellets.
 * The other droid which can do this are Gunner Droids.


 * Sharp Rapid-Fire Droids will not shoot at the player but will immediately chase them instead, while Dull Rapid-Fire Droids will continue shooting at the player even when they are very close (acting as an aiming, killable turret).
