Mecha knight attacks can take away large chunks of player health even if the player has ideal defenses. If a mecha knight is nearby and emits a whirring sound, [[dash]] away or block the strike. Baiting them into their melee combo and then shooting is an effective strategy, because if they are shot during their combo they are automatically knocked down. It is very important to be mindful of this attack in Tier 3, as their 4 bullets can cause trouble for you as well as other players focused on a fight somewhere else.

Strategy

Notes

Mecha Knights are creations supposedly made by Gremlins to protect themselves during Clockworks maintenance. This is especially evident in many Deconstruction Zones. There is evidence suggesting certain constructs have plans of their own, considering events that transpire during the Interface-icon-PvE.png Dangerous Mission: Ghosts in the Machine.

The 3-1 Interface-icon-PvE.png Mission: Toy Soldiers features Mecha Knights. During the 1-2 Interface-icon-PvE.png Mission: The Ancient Generator, a lot of broken Mecha Knights are found in the area. Interestingly enough, there are several constructs species that the player must fight in this mission, but no active Mecha Knights. Unmoving or "broken" Mecha Knights are found throughout the clockworks as aesthetic entities. This scenario room randomly found in arcade compounds features a large statue of a mecha knight as well as Energy Mecha Knights.

Bosco takes care of a mecha knight, hoping to use it as a bodyguard. The Mecha Knight Kit pickup and Energy Mecha Knight are friendly versions of this monster with their own equipment that can be used as bodyguards by players.

The Mecha Helm and Mecha Suit costumes allow the player to mimic the appearance of this monster. The descriptions of the Voltaic Radical costume set hint at the existence of a sentient mecha knight.
