Gunners[1] are enemies that can be found in Terrace Village. Along with the other Gnorcs in Terrace Village, they discovered how to use electricity.

Characteristics

Physical Appearance

Gunners are the best armored of the Gnorcs with a full body metal suit. They keep their heads in a metal helmet most of the time to protect them from the blasts they set off. Every once in a while, they will poke their head out to show them wearing heavy glasses. They've been known to protect Electro Gnorcs. When in idle, they will also shoot at chickens to spare time.

Behavior

Gunners are Gnorcs that are operate armored gunners they wear as armor. They fire electric bolts at Spyro from the gun turrets they are in, these same guns also protect them from Spyro's fire.

Tactics

The best way to defeat a Gunner is to quickly Charge them before they lock in to attack. If they do lock in to attack, you should immediately look for something to hide behind (like a building, or wall), so the gunner's attack won't hit Spyro. Once these gnorcs are done firing, get out of cover and charge them. If there are more than one of these gnorcs next to each other, you need to charge into both of them fast, if you miss one of them it will lock in to attack, and you will need to take cover.

Trivia

  • The Gunners look very similar in appearance to the Electro Gnorcs, only with the addition of their armored turrets and sunglasses differentiating them. However, when you charge the Gunners, they are actually revealed to be Goons before they disappear.
  • These Gnorcs appear to be listening to music on a Walkman. However, only their headphones can be seen.
    • In Reignited Trilogy, they are wearing big headphones. This is to make them accurate to modern day (21st century).
