Drones are the least utilised fodder enemy in the game

Why do they only appear in early layers and then become rarer?

[Cocyx The Gay Skeleton]

too ez. maybe brutal will add more though once they're a threat

theyre like lost souls in doom except they cant charge at you so theyre not even slightly threatening

Don't give Hakita an idea for a lost soul.... Or else it'll be a mini Minos prime

drones become obsolete once you learn how to pboost and ricoshot sorry not sorry

but they're funny and sometimes you need whiplash to heal off of them.
Then again, them getting lost in open areas...I understand more now.

i prefer to use drones as flying grenades i can punch into enemies since what else am i supposed to do with them other than shoot them

They are uncommon and I'm happy. They either die by themselves or are the most annoying part of a fight, no inbetween.

How are they annoying? They attack slowly, shoot out some of the slowest projectiles in the entire game in a pattern easier to parry than others and are also easily countered by pboosts, which cost almost nothing to do as the others mentioned. Their explosion is also bypassed by doing that as you'll just either send them across the level or outright destroy them.
I get that they can fly away and steal P ranks like in 2-1, but as long as you listen to the music you can just use a coin and be on your way. And drones just shouldn't be used in open arenas anyway.

you just described exactly why they're annoying.

in exchange for almost no threat to you, they only serve to make being fast annoying and offer no benefit at all since whiplashing a drone to you has the high chance of it dying mid-reel to an enemy projectile, exploding in your face

i had never had that problem even all the way to wave 50, usually i either just ricoshot them or whiplash and punch them, and dash in case they explode

[Champion of Dreams]

they are the laziest enemy in my opinion, you kill them in one hit (or three if your a mayo%'er) they explode if you hit them hard enough, parrying their attack kills them if it hits them back, and they just fly around and explode
