Horizon's Robots adds robots from the game Horizon Zero Dawn. The new robots will be difficult to fight and will require more strategy then normal mobs.
Mod will Leave Early Access when there are 5 robots completed
Currently adds 2 Robots: the Watcher and Strider
The Watcher: A dangerous robot that can jump kick, tail whack, or fire orbs at its target. They are dangerous alone but very deadly in groups.
The Strider: They keep in herds with Watchers or Burrowers as their lookouts. When threatened the herd stampedes away as one lone Strider stays to fight.
The Burrower: Wandering the hotter parts of the world you can encounter these energetic robots. Beware as they can burrow in the ground in middle of combat.
The Grazer: Rather Skittish machines that room the woods grazing on grass to turn into blaze. However a Grazer will protect the herd from any approaching threat along with their guards.
5 new items to drop from the new robots
Braided Wire: Can be used instead of string in crafting for Bows, Leads and Fishing rods or combine with 2 sticks for Wire Handles which can be crafted with a copper ingot and feather for 6 arrows
Blaze Canister: A Canister of a Orange highly flammable liquid known as Blaze. When heat is applied the Blaze will combust into a flaming explosion.
Echo Shell: A sound component of various that allows to make deafening sounds, However it can used in various loud sound and sonic blast related gadgets.
Robot Lens, Primary Nerves, Hearts: Currently are just collectables or trophies
