'''Robotics''' is a standard power set that is a primary set for [[Mastermind]]s.
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is one of the powersets.  It is a [[Mastermind]] primary power set.


Robotics allow you to construct an army of mechanical henchmen and repair and upgrade them in order to keep your army in tip-top shape. Robot Henchmen generally have good resistances to lethal, cold and psionic damage, as well as sleep, fear and disorient. They are vulnerable to EMP attacks. Robot Henchmen cannot be resurrected.

Robots, along with [[Mercenaries]], are one of the ranged henchmen sets.  Its damage is Energy/Smashing based, and its resists are Sleep, Fear, Disorient, Lethal, Cold, and Psionic.  Many of its powers have a knockback component - other than this it is a control-light set, as opposed to [[Necromancy]].  It is notable as the only [[Mastermind]] powerset not based on a human model, and the only powerset with a customized [[Flight | Group Fly]] animation (jump jets in the feet).

Launches an Energy Grenade at long range from your Pulse Rifle. The energy from this explosion can Disorient some targets in the affected area and debuffs their regeneration.


You can summon one to two powerful Protector Bots (depending on your level). Protector Bots can defend your army by placing Force Fields on you and your allies. They can even be equipped to repair your other Robot Henchmen. Make no mistake though, the best defense is a good offence, and Protector Bots are well equipped with energy weapons. You may only have 2 Protector Bots under your control at any given time. If you attempt to summon more Protector Bots, you can only replace the ones you have lost in battle. If you already have two, the power will fail.
Laser Burn: Targets struck by this attack will have their Regeneration debuffed for 30 seconds.
