Retrodes are a type of monster found in The Clockworks.
Traits
Retrodes appear to be twiggy mechanical Zombies. Their most dangerous attack is their beam attack, which they only start using in Tier 2 and lower. Their laser beams will travel a straight path towards the adventurer before exploding, usually inflicting a negative status effect.
Types
Notable Retrodes
Strategy
Retrodes will shoot a beam, indicating where the explosions will occur. If adventurers can read and predict the beam's path, they can avoid damage and status effects.
- Predicting the beam: First, the Retrode will rear its head back and then the top eye will shoot out a beam of light. Small patches of glowing spots will appear following the beam's path indicating where the blasts will occur. Then, the explosions will occur, starting at the Retrode's feet up to where the last patch of glowing spots is situated. Knights who can actually see that cycle in the HALF SECOND it occurs can raise their shields quickly enough to absorb the beam.
