Guardian drones
Guardian drones guard other bots. They are often found in sectors containing advanced Transport drones such as the Aerna Transport. Most are armed with a combination of Flechette Cannons and Gatling Turrets.
How to Kill
Guardians are heavily armored and reward very little experience. They take a long time to kill, and the weapons they employ hurt a lot. Most players simply avoid Guardian drones.

How to Kill
Many a new player has met his first death upon meeting this model. The Aputech-5 mounts the infamous popcorn gun (called a flechette). It is a shotgun-style spray weapon. If you are too close to this bot, you will get hit. Distance control of between 150 and 200 meters is your best bet for staying healthy while scoring hits. A rolling tactic of any kind is only marginally effective; mix a two key strafe with actively varying your distance. As explained above, your time is better spent hunting something else.
