MechaPinata patrol

You are fighting a MechaPinata patrol.

Heading deeper into the MechaPinata horde, you come across a patrol of soldiers... MechaPinata soldiers if that wasn't obvious.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• The pinatas play a rousing game of "see if the hero is made of candy." It turns out you're not.
• One of the pinatas pulls out a grenade and tosses it at you. You'd wonder how they used grenades without thumbs if you weren't so busy exploding. damage+ (fire) damage
• The patrol surrounds you, kicking you from all angles.

They hit you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Your opponent has a critical hit! They hit you for X damage.

Miss messages:

• The pinatas suggest a rousing game of "see if the hero is made out of candy." You decline.
• One of the pinatas pulls out a grenade and fumbles it on the ground. Yeah, it's really tough to pull pins without any thumbs.
• The patrol tries to surround you, but they're no Joe Frayday, so you easily slip out of their dragnet.

Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! They takes X damage.

Notes

• A total of 100 MechaPinatas need to be defeated to successfully thwart the invasion. The number of MechaPinatas each foe counts as can be seen here.
• Fighting this foe while having a baseball bat equipped is enough to add it to the number of MechaPinatas batted, in the records. So far unknown effect.
• Having MechaPinata gear equipped and/or a Mechapinata!! sidekick allows you to skip some foes. A list of the MechaPinata gear can be found here and the foes you can skip in here.
• At the start of each fight, there's the following message:

You dive into the <status> horde.

if you have at least one MechaPinata gear equipped but aren't using the Mechapinata!! as your sidekick, the message is replaced by:

You sneak behind enemy lines into the <status> horde. It takes a while for them to see through your cunning disguise.

if you have a Mechapinata!! sidekick, the message is replaced by:

You hide within your mechapinata, sneaking behind enemy lines into the <status> horde.

• Where <status> depends on how many MechaPinatas have been defeated so far and can be one of the following:

None defeated: undisturbed

1 to 9 defeated: massive

10 to 19 defeated: unbroken

20 to 29 defeated: fierce

30 to 39 defeated: cautious

40 to 49 defeated: <blank>

50 to 59 defeated: stampeding

60 to 69 defeated: mired

70 to 79 defeated: struggling

80 to 89 defeated: thinning

90 to 99 defeated: remarkably sparse

• Stunning is less effective and lasts half as long, with the message:

Your opponent is too stunned to act, but is shaking it off faster than you expected.

• MechaGelts, sugar water coolers and jumbo jawbreakers appear to be random, having more players join the fray increase the chances as you end up having an higher total of fights.
• The general's baton, rallying flag and MechaMache only drop when you defeat the last MechaPinata. Number of MechaMaches varies from 2-4 and the other two drops appear to be random, both can be received at the same time though.

References

• The third miss message refers to Joe Friday, a detective in the radio and television police drama Dragnet.
