Nobody Saves the World Robot guide

by Chris Hyde on January 18, 2022

We’ve seen a lot of forms in Nobody Saves the World, but the Robot is the first and only artificial form. Being a mechanical being it is very sturdy and offers some of the best defensive stats in the game. Its skills also look to further bolster its defensive capabilities. That said, don’t be fooled into thinking the Robot doesn’t pack a punch, because it certainly does. It also has some interesting skills that work well together in tandem to wreck the lives of your enemies in a satisfying fashion. To understand how to get the best from the Robot form in Nobody Saves the World, check out the information below.

Tips

The Robot is another tank of Nobody Saves the World, like the Bodybuilder. It can take plenty of hits and dish out damage too. The Lightning Drill is a melee attack but it actually has decent range, meaning you can literally keep enemies at arm’s length and still deal good damage. Steel Plated is a super useful passive ability as it simply gives you more defence for free. It also deals back Sharp damage back to enemies as well, meaning you’re actually dangerous to attack too! Ravager Rocket can be used as a bog-standard range attack to clear out enemies just out of reach of your drill. However, if you shoot it from distance, and let it fly through the air for a second it’ll transform and guarantee a Crit hit, dealing much more damage. Therefore where possible use a Ravager Rocket from a fair distance to get the most damage from your Mana investment. Tempest Barrage is great for dealing damage to large groups around Robot. The missiles will home in on enemies meaning you don’t have to worry about where they are or facing the right way, you just have to have enough Mana to keep the barrage going. The additional Dark damage is great for dealing with Dark Wards as well.
