| − | '''Scythers''' are a fast-moving [[mechanoid]] that | + | '''Scythers''' are a type of fast-moving [[mechanoid]] with strong melee skills that can be found sealed in ancient ruins in all biomes, either spawned inside mountains or outside on the landscape. They may also raid the player's base through a random raid-type event and can also be found in most [[Crashed Ship Part#Poison Ship|poison ships]] and [[Crashed Ship Part#Psychic Ship|psychic ships]]. |
| − | + | Scythers are often supported by [[centipede]]s and [[lancer]]s, though they outrun centipedes by a huge margin, and will not stop to let them catch up. They always charge head-on at your colonists, spelling disaster should they successfully close the distance due to their excellent melee capabilities. | |

| − | |||
| − | + | Like other mechanoids, scythers are sentient machine-like creatures which do not need to eat, cannot be tamed or trained, and are always hostile to the colony. Scythers have a moderate resistance to sharp damage and a small resistance to blunt damage combined with a higher-than-average health scale, meaning that it is unlikely that a scyther charge can be completely intercepted at range. Scythers are vulnerable to [[deadfall trap]]s, being more readily lured into them due to their melee nature. | |
| − | + | Dead scythers may be disassembled at the [[machining table]] for 20 [[steel]], 5 [[plasteel]] and 1 [[component]], though these values are affected by mechanoid disassembly efficiency. | |
