Chiang Arcbot Model 2



The Chiang Arcbot Model 2, also known as Mini-SpiderBot, is a type of maintenance robot appearing in Deus Ex that also doubles as a security bot.

Background
"The Chiang Arcbot Model 2 was only recently introduced, a radical departure from Chiang's usually conservative line of industrial bots. Constructed on an arachnid frame, the Model 2 can adeptly maneuver in environments that would be difficult for other repair bots to access. With the addition of a comprehensive array of repair tools, it becomes ideally suited for damage control and building maintenance. But the truly inspired touch by the normally staid Chiang engineers was the ability for the Arcbot to utilize it's bioelectric discharge capacitor as a non-lethal weapon, allowing it to protect itself from potential vandals and perform double-duty patrolling otherwise unsecured portions of infrastructure. However, the Arcbot's big brother, the Model 5, is almost exclusively used for riot control..."

Characteristics
A rare sight until mid-game when they become relatively common. They're small, fast and often attack in groups of two or more. While their attack doesn't do much damage, it saps your bioelectrical energy. The Spy Drone at level 1 is an economical way of dealing with them, as are shotgun SABOT rounds. If you don't care about your bioelectric energy, just hit them with the Dragon's Tooth.
