Metal Pirates Room

Plowerhouse Room	Adjacent rooms	Wasteland

The Metal Pirates will each make themselves vulnerable if Samus is on the set of three square blocks that the pirate centers its movement around. The best way to handle this changes depending on the category.

Any% KPDR

Two charged Plasma shots will kill the pirates once they become vulnerable, or a single shot each if the shot hits twice.

Since this category doesn't have Plasma and wants to preserve Super Missiles for the Ridley fight, the optimal strategy involves a shinespark to kill each pirate.
