Burner Droid

The Burner Droid is a hostile droid exclusive to Violent Volcano. Being a world exclusive droid, it lacks a 2.0/3.0 variant.

Appearance
Burner Droids have a red head, orange torso and red limbs. They wear the usual Droid helmet but also wear a red gas mask, fitting their ability. Burner Droids wear a red metal glove on their right hand similar to those used by Gunner Droid s and Rapid-Fire Droid s, but instead of firing bullets, it constantly spews out a jet of fire.

Behavior
Unlike most droids, Burner Droids do not chase players; it does not walk regardless of how close the player is. The Droid will always turn to face the closest player, but at a fairly slow rate. It constantly shoots fire out of its glove which will burn players depending on how long they touch it for, dealing high damage, although less than lava.

Combat Tips
Burner Droids can be easily countered by circling it with a sword, since it turns slower than the default walking speed. They are also weak to ice, so ice-based weaponry are more effective against them.

If a Burner Droid is against a wall, you can still defeat it by approaching it from the side and circling it through 180 degrees, then backing away and repeating.

Since the droid does not move, and its fire has a short range, Burner Droids are vulnerable to ranged weapons. They can be shot down from a distance without retaliation.

There is also a small area that you can stand in that puts you close enough to damage the Burner Droid, without the Burner Droid reaching you.
