Increasingly Lethal Enemy
Played Straight, especially when it comes to weapon systems developed by the GODS (that's what I'm calling them for now).
The Bushbot is a perfect example of this. Due to the fact that the fractal branches on a Bushbot can manipulate things on a molecular scale, if they are not taken out quickly and with sufficient force they will use any matter that hits them (like grenades and flechettes) or that is available (other bots, cars, ships, people) to assemble their own launchers and guns with which to shoot back.
Top that off with the fact that damaged branches can be caught and reprocessed into new limbs and that they are capable of moving in ANY environment means that the best way to kill them is not to hit them directly, but to melt/vaporize/blow up the entire area immediately surrounding the bot with any and all heavy firepower that will not give it any physical matter to scoop up.
This is also best done from long range as the Bushbot can very quickly and very efficiently turn you into component atoms if it runs into and then through you.
The only upside to a Bushbot attack is that they are very good about cleaning up their own messes.
