[[Multislice]] does decreasing damage so whoever is in front will receive the brunt of the damage and whoever is last in position won't suffer as much. [[Ruff]]'s Aooo! skill has a chance of preventing the Automaton from using one of its turns, which may save you from its attack for a round or at least preventing them from attacking twice. Make liberal use of that. Defeating Automatons should have highest priority before any other enemies. Lucky players can receive an [[Iron axe]] as a drop from them, which is more powerful than any weapon that can be purchased from shops at that point and for the next few islands. | [[Multislice]] does decreasing damage so whoever is in front will receive the brunt of the damage and whoever is last in position won't suffer as much.

The Automaton's original name in Japanese, ''karakuri hei'', is a reference to karakuri puppets, a type of traditional mechanized puppet or automata that was made in Japan from the 17th to the 19th century. Some were small and used as home decorations that could serve tea or sake, but they were also life-sized karakuri puppets that were used for public theater performances or religious festivals. | The Automaton's original name in Japanese, ''karakuri hei'', is a reference to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karakuri_puppet karakuri puppets], a type of traditional mechanized puppet or automata that was made in Japan from the 17th to the 19th century.
