Better left alone, these hard-working robots can usually be found repairing doors, lights, and other types of equipment.

—The Reckoning Manual

The Repair Bot, also known as a "Fixer Robot", is an unusual Opponent; it will spend the majority of its time fixing broken equipment or architecture. Should a fallen Strogg be in its proximity, it will attempt to return it back to functional status like a Medic. Though it is easy to kill, it is often not necessary to do so.

Description

Repair bots seem to be about the size of a human head, and are fairly common. They shoot out a blue beam to revive fallen Strogg, but mostly will be found repairing lights or other electrical systems and are only a mild threat, as they emit a projectile roughly analagous to that fired by the Blaster.

They look like a toaster with two folded wings and "Caution" stripes down their backs. They have claw-like arms, similar to those of the Technicians, and no apparent optical scanners, although they have no trouble tracking Joker with their weapon. They fly and move much like a Flyer. Fixers also make the same "pain" sounds as Flyers. When killed, Fixers mushroom out in a large explosion.

Strategy

  • Alone, a Fixer is an incredibly low threat, like a low-powered Flyer. If they are in a group with other Strogg, they can be quite a threat. Either gib the Strogg you kill or blow up the Fixer with a rocket.
