The Piston Pod [Walker (ウォーカー Wōkā) in the Japanese version] is a futuristic cybernetic enemy in Razing Storm Story Mode.
Overview[]
A Piston Pod is operated by a soldier, armed with a laser gun and protected by shields which can withstand multiple submachine gun bullets and shotgun shells fired from a distance but are weak against sniper rifle and machine gun bullets. In addition, the exposed robot joints are also weak against sniper rifle bullets. There are other weakness such as having to expose its sides when attacking as both the gun and shields face forward, making it vulnerable to flanking attacks; and with no overhead protection, it is vulnerable to top attacks such as a falling structure (which destroyed two Piston Pods in Mona Darta) or grenades which instantly destroys it by directly killing the soldier.
In-Game Appearance[]
Being hit by machine gun fire at Almada Penitentiary
Piston Pods make three appearances for a total of six units: in Mona Darta/Stage 1 (4 units of which the last unit is destroyed by S.C.A.R. operatives when they attack from the top), in Almada Penitentiary/Stage 2 (2 units), and in Lixeira/Stage 3 (1 unit).
