	The Mechtoid is a MEC developed by the aliens for the [[Sectoid (EU2012)\|Sectoids]] that appears on [[XCOM: Enemy Within DLC (EU2012)\|Enemy Within DLC]]. The Mechtoid has an ability called '''Plasma Barrage''' which allows it to fire twice in a turn if it doesn't move and Sectoids (including [[Sectoid Commander (EU2012)\|Commanders]]) can mind merge with it and give it a 6 damage reducing shield. The Mechtoid won't die if the merger is killed, but it will lose the shield and take 4 damage.
