Insecturret

What is an Insecturret?
An Insecturret, also called a spider turret or spider badnik, is an enemy in SRB2-RPG. It is found mainly in Green Grove Zone, although some are found in other areas, such as Green Grove Forest and some training rooms. This enemy is from Sonic 3D Blast, taken straight from Panic Puppet Zone. It is a four-legged insectoid robot with four turrets, one where every second leg should be. In SRB2-RPG, Insecturrets act like they did in Sonic 3D Blast -- moving around in four directions and firing steel balls at heroes. If a hero makes contact with one or more Insecturrets, they will engage in battle. If a hero is shot with a steel ball, they will be damaged, but will not engage in battle unless they make contact. If the gametype is non-turn based, Insecturrets will have no choice but to shoot at the player at point-blank range. These enemies are dangerous, as not only are they heavily armored, but their steel ammunition is hard and deals high damage.

In Battle
In battle, Insecturrets will often fire steel balls at the heroes. If the heroes are quick enough, they will be able to counter by deflecting the "bullets" back at the Insecturret, often dealing high damage. Insecturrets also have a special move called Ball Barrage. Basically, 4 Insecturrets and at least 3 players are needed. If present (and alive), all of them will line up side-by-side. They will then continuously fire steel balls at the heroes. Each Insecturret will fire 5 steel balls before spreading out again. If the heroes are fast enough, they can again deflect them back at the Insecturrets. However, due to the firing speed, it's very difficult to deflect all 20 of them. When defeated, Insecturrets often leave behind their ammunition. In battle (or out of battle), players can throw steel balls. If the player is a Gizoid, they will be able to load the steel ball into their arm cannon, then fire at the enemy doing higher damage.
