Behavior

 * Pyro Droids chase you at a slow pace like any normal droid. It has a large amount of, meaning that it'll start chasing you from a decently far distance.
 * A countdown can be seen in its torso.
 * Every second, it will make a beep sound. After the countdown ends, the Pyro Droid will emit and explosion that causes burning. The countdown will reset after the explosion.
 * Each upgraded variant decreases the amount of beeps by one.
 * When the Pyro Droid dies, its torso explodes after 1 second, similar to droids with the Explosive  modifier. If it was spawned from a Pyro Spawner, the center of mass explodes instead of the torso when it dies.
 * Each variant increases its by 2 and  by 8.

Combat Tips

 * Pyro Droids move very slowly, but have high and, even more than that of the Tank Droids so it can be quite tedious to kill them. You should always kite them to deal more damage, making the fight quicker. Still beware of the explosions while kiting and don't get too close.
 * Unless you are on low and don't want to risk getting, you shouldn't waste too much  (more than 10) when fighting this droid as it is fairly easy to kite.
 * As the explosion attack any player too close to the droid, back away from the droid before it explodes. And since the  swords  lunging speed is similar to the rate of the beeping, you can use your attacks to time your retreat.
 * For example, against a regular Pyro Droid, you can usually lunge at it 3 times before backing away. Finally, when the Pyro Droid dies, you should avoid the torso or wait for it to explode before collecting the.
 * With, Pyro Droids become much less of a threat as you can completely ignore all from its explosions, making the Pyro Droid just a glorified Tank Droid.
 * is twice as powerful against Pyro Droids, so weaponry is more effective against them. If the  shop  right before Violent Volcano/ Elemental Heights sells an ice-based weapon, it is usually a good idea to buy it. For example, you can use the  Ice Sword  if you have bought it. Despite this, Cyro and Pyro droids cannot hurt one another.

Trivia

 * The Pyro Droid used to be able to heal itself every time it exploded, but this was removed.
 * The Pyro Droid is one of the few Droids in the game that can damage the player after it is defeated.
 * Pyro Droids are one of very few droids to have 2 counterparts. Its counterparts are Cryo Droid and Sage Droid. Think of Sage Droids as a "normal" counterpart to the Pyro Droids and Cryo Droids.
