Maykr Drone - Weakness & Tips
Weakness: Head

Hitting the Maykr Drone's head with either a Ballista or a Heavy Cannon's Precision Bolt can kill it in one shot. You can also use other weapons but it might take a few hits before the Maykr Drone dies. If killed via a headshot, the Maykr Drone will drop health and ammo pickups, similar to being Glory Killed and Chainsawed at the same time.
Sidesteps To Avoid Damage

The Maykr Drone can be seen spinning to the sides to avoid incoming fire. Aim at it when it's firing at you since it does not move when using its range attack.
Freeze For Free Hits

You can use Ice Bomb to freeze Maykr Drones in place. This makes it easier for you to use other weapons to headshot them and get their pickups.
Incredibly Resilient
The Maykr Drone has increased defense overall and its only weakness is its head. Do try to hit it at its weakspot to save ammo. Also, if not killed via headshot, the Maykr Drone will only drop a measly amount of health pickups.
Variant: Red Maykr Drone

Red Maykr Drones make an appearance during your battle against the Khan Maykr. The only difference between them and the normal Maykr Drones is their appearance. Their moves are not different from the normal ones.

Ranged Attack

Maykr Drone will support heavier demons using this move to pressure the player. They will sidestep and fire barrages that deal heavy damage if not dodged. Use dash and the environment to prevent them from connecting.
Melee Attack

The Maykr Drone will flail its "arms" at you to damage you. Can easily be avoided by maintaining distance from them.
