MK2 Jetpack Robot

The MK2 Jetpack Robot is a robot encountered in Clone Drone in the Danger Zone.

## Appearances

The jetpack2 is not encountered in normal difficulty in any of the story chapters, as it was introduced in the arena makeover update which released after the first 4 chapters had been released. Despite this, at least one armoured MK2 Jetpack Robot is present in insane difficulty of every chapter, as well as commonly replacing the MK1 Jetpack Robot in many instances throughout hard and insane difficulty.

The Jetpack2 appears from Titanium tier onwards in endless and co-op mode, and tends to replace the MK1 Jetpack Robot in most instances.

## Traits

The MK2 Jetpack2 Robot, being an advanced variant of the MK1 Jetpack Robot, shares a lot of his moveset with the MK1 Jetpack Robot. This includes the MK1 Jetpack Robots ability to use the jetpack, the ability to knock aside swords while blocking, and the ability to attack while jetpacking.

On top of this however, the MK2 Jetpack Robot has vastly increased manoeuvrability, as well as three bars of energy, and one upgrade of energy up (which is revealed when mind transferring into it), this allows the MK2 Jetpack Robot to not only jetpack for longer, but also with smaller intervals between jetpack bursts when low on energy. Also, the MK2 Jetpack Robot has an increased jetpack speed, which makes it arguably the fastest robot in the game excluding the MK2 Kickbot.

The MK2 Jetpack Robot also has a significantly improved AI, being the equal of that of the MK3 or MK4 sword robots, this involves advanced strafing and more accurate attacks while not jetpacking.

They are also often spawned in groups, which can overwhelm the player.

## Design

The MK2 Jetpack Robot shares the exact same model as the MK1 Jetpack Robot, with the only difference being that it has one massive head ornament (or mohawk) as opposed to the three smaller head ornaments that the MK1 Jetpack Robot possesses. The MK2 Jetpack Robot is also a bright florescent green instead of yellow/gold, unlike the MK1 Jetpack Robot. Their armour is similar to that of gladiators, if gladiators liked wearing florescent green armour that is.

## Tips and Tricks

The MK2 Jetpack Robot is far stronger and more agile than the MK1 Jetpack Robot, this means that more care needs to be taken when fighting them. Also, they should be the very first robots that the player should try and kill, with the only exceptions being laser enemies which can kill you while fighting other robots, even if you are moving. This high priority is due to the fact that MK2 Jetpack Robots are often just as agile, if not more agile, than the player, unless you have invested in energy and jetpack upgrades, which can result in no time to regenerate energy and focus on other enemies.

The MK2 Jetpack Robot is one of the most threatening sword robots in the game, being weaker than only the MK5 Sword Robots, and being the technical equal of the Business Jetpack Bots. This means that fighting them in close combat is very risky, and is not advised as anything other than a last resort. This means that while the MK2 Jetpack Robot is hard to hit with the bow, due to its strafing and inconsistent movement, managing to do so is a safe way to dispose of the MK2 Jetpack Robot, as they lack any way of blocking arrows.

Flame breath is also a devastating way of dealing with MK2 Jetpack Robots, whether it be a group, or a single one, due to the large area the flames cover and the range being long enough to avoid the robot. The high energy cost is justified by the high threat posed by the MK2 Jetpack Robot, and the fact that it is usually far enough ahead of other robots for your energy to recharge.

If melee combat cannot be avoided, a shield is a good way of blocking the barrage of sword strikes, which will inevitably come from a group of MK2 Jetpack Robots. However the spear leaves much to be desired in the way of killing MK2 Jetpack Robots due to their hard-to-hit nature. The sword is more effective, due to its side swings which are quite effective at hitting the MK2 Jetpack Robot at closer ranges, and the sword block mechanic which, although inconsistently and unreliably, can save your life. The most effective weapon against a single MK2 Jetpack Robot is the hammer, especially with size up upgrades, as it can hit the MK2 Jetpack Robot most consistently. It is less effective against groups of MK2 Jetpack Robots as due to the position of the hands while holding a hammer, it is very easy for a single MK2 Jetpack Bot to take off one of your arms, rendering the hammer useless.
