These constructs served Stetmann during the End War against Amon. These hydralisks can be equipped with Erudition missiles, and augmented to increase their movement speed.[2]
The mecha hydralisk is the ranged attacker for Egon Stetmann in Co-op Missions. They serve as Stetmann's primary anti-air, especially with the Eruditon Missile upgrade, which can deal heavy damage to air units. They can double the damage of their anti-air attacks using the Juiced Up ability. However, this requires energy to use.
Mecha hydralisks can be "recycled" when they die, which will respawn additional mecha hydralisks.[2]
