Shieldrone ★★★
Shieldrone ★★★ is an uncommon cryogenic throwable item.
This drone model may not put up a fight, but it will definitely put up a shield.
Being one of the first drone models with an integrated energy shield, this drone is considered a staple of alta technology.
Ingame
Species descriptions:
- Alta: It’s very stylish. You know, in addition to also being pretty safe to interact with.
Radiomessages on pickup:
- Seems like you’ve acquired an Alta Robotic, or simply a Drone Spawner. You can activate it to deploy a friendly drone (or droid). Unfortunately, you won’t be able to further control it or deactivate it back.
Parameters
Chill
Will launch a big cloud of 
ice gas at targets. Will explode with electric particles on destruction.
Its freezing capabilities don’t make it enough to act as a fridge, but definitely enough to give your targets some freezing cool.
Shielded Drone
Has status effects: 
Sensitive Electronics, 
Force Field Autoshielder.
Deals physical damage on touch.
While energy shields are common among alta technology, these ones in particular are extra good.
