Elite Shielder

The Elite Shielders are upgraded versions of the I.D.P.D. Shielders. They appear after the Campfire area on loops. Elite Shielders have high amount of health, and use an I.D.P.D. version of the Plasma Minigun. Fires inaccurate bursts of blue plasma projectiles, from 4 to 6 at a time. Each plasma projectile deals damage the same way as Plasma Weapons projectiles which is 4-16 and causes a plasma explosion that deals 10-20 damage.

Their shield ability functions the same as the regular Shielder's and will reflect your projectiles. After the shield disappears, the Elite Shielder teleports to a random location in the area.
