Rare Machines? *Maybe small Spoiler*
Probably didnt realized that before but now im doing the 100% completionist run and I just found 3 Golden machines in the city ruins, Im level 22 with 2B and I cant barely do any dmg to them, Im also before the 2 Goliath main mission that change the map.

Well those 3 enemies are very tanky I needed like 30 min of fighting and dodging to "kill" the small guy (he just fall in the ground but didnt exploded), the other 2 big machines are even more tanky and pods cant dmg them.

Its odd that I dont remember such tanky enemies when I completed the story, probably 9S Mad hacking skill rekt them apart but still cant remember them either.

Someone knows who are those guys and why they are that tanky at level 22?
It kinda looks like some random event/quest but out of place due the tankiness of those golden enemies, they are just level 26 but too tanky.



Thanks for the answers, solved.

Ideally, you're supposed to fight all the gold machines via 9S's hacking. Their insane tankiness is the game's way of telling you not to even try to fight them as 2B. Even so, I beat the first two that appeared at the flooded city as 2B, and saved the rest for when I played as 9S..

Yeah, you will have to hack them as 9S or spend else spend a ton of time grinding down their health bars.

Might be a good time to set it on easy and let the game play itself while you do something else.

Lol, learned that on the hard way almost taking them down :D its cool that you can still do something with 2B if you are a really good player ^^

Does the last quest of Robo- Dojo works on same way? that guy is kinda tanky too or maybe its a late game mission.

I also met them in my first playthrough. At that time my difficulty was set to normal so I managed to destroy them, though it took fair long time.

The last two quests form Father Servo are best done as 9S. I'm sure it's doable as 2B once you're a high enough level, but grinding is about 100 times easier as 9S so it's best to just wait until route B to finish Servo's questline.
haha well robodojo you can make with round lvl 50 he gos only up to 60.

the goldn mashiens are very hard for ther lvl 25 even with lvl 99 the little r2d2 are hard to kill with 2B or A2
the Golden machins have 3 spots one in the citty ruins one at the sunken city and one in the Desert region; Residential area. theyare brothers and sisters.

The best ist the rabbit at the asumentpark this is a lvl 80 with 9s its a one hit with 2b or a2 he needs time

I killed each of these buggers twice. As 2b, in separate playthroughs. They aren't as bad if you have high critical

They are tough. for me it took a long time, but I found that the hammer pod program and the missile pod make it a bit easier. the hammer pod program was doing like about 1k damage on them I beileve the numbers said even with their armor. Also with the big guys I found it easier once you knock off one of their armor plates I did that with one and just kept hitting his unarmored arm. They still had a lot of health but I was doing more damage to them.

For the small one I used my counter chip with spears to just constantly lay attack on it without stopping. Tank has a weak point in the Desert, after you kill all of its turrets you can reveal a generator.
