The Overkilling machine is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first introduced in Dragon Quest VI as a deadlier upgrade to the Killing machine.
Characteristics
Lethal looking war-bots that are tooled to the teeth with over powering weapons that they wield on every available appendage. Built for destruction of intruders, their blue chassis hides a honed program that allows them to quickly swing their sword and spiked mace one after the other, allowing them to attack twice in a single turn. They fire arrows far from their twisted metal tails and are also known to wildly fling their weapons around to dish out extra damage. Compared to their predecessors, these machines are much more mobile due to their ability to levitate in battle.
