Mechanoids are a category of enemy in Xenoblade Chronicles X. They comprise a broad range of mechanical subcategories of enemy, ranging from indigenous robots to enemy Skells to Ganglion weapons. BLADE enemies also fall under this category.
Mechanoids have varying weaknesses against different attributes. They most commonly take 30% less damage from physical attacks and 10% less from ether and thermal attacks; they also commonly take 25% more damage from beam and electric attacks and 50% more from gravity.
One interesting facet of Ganglion technology is that it's heavily affected by weather: if electromagnetic storms are active, they will lose their acoustic detection ability (though they are still hostile on sight).
Mechanoids are affected by the augments Mechanoid Slayer, Mechanoid Criticals Up, Slayer.MECHANOID, and CritUp.MECHANOID. They are also affected by the skill Mechanoid Slayer.
