Chain Droid

Chain Droids are hostile droids  that are exclusive to Crystalline Caves and Droids HQ. Being a world exclusive droid, it lacks a 2.0/3.0 variant.

Appearance
Chain Droids have dark blue skin with a red torso. It wears a different helmet and face to that of normal droids, wearing a red Mining Helmet and a red Smug face respectively.

The bombs they spawn look very similar to The Bomb or Smoke Bombs. The bombs also have a red tint to them.

Behaviour
Chain Droids act similarly to any regular droid, chasing players when a player enters its. However, roughly every 2.5 seconds, it makes a burning fuse sound effect and spawns a bomb which drops on the ground. These bombs roll around and detonate upon the Chain Droids' death, dealing each. On death, Chain Droids also drop 1 more bomb. Additionally, the bombs which were first spawned detonate first, supposedly causing a chain reaction which leads to all the bombs spawned blowing up.

A maximum of 5 bombs per Chain Droid can be present at any time, which despawns the latest bomb dropped if more than 5 bombs are present.

 * The Chain Droid may kick one of its bombs toward you while . Quickly jump out of the way before continuing to kite the droid when this happens.


 * With, Chain Droids become much less of a threat as you can completely ignore all from the bombs explosions, allowing you to focus on damaging it.


 * is twice as powerful against Chain Droids, so weaponry is more effective against them. If the  shop  right before Crystalline Caves sells a  weapon, it is usually a good idea to buy it.
 * For example, you can use the Ruby Sword  or Red Dragon Sword if you have bought it. Despite this, the Chain Droids' bombs cannot hurt other Chain Droids.
