*Ingsmashers share several similarities with [[Elite Pirate]]s. Both are armed with shoulder-mounted concussive weapons that can be destroyed, both are capable of generating shock waves, though the Ingsmasher can generate them at a much higher speed. Ingsmashers are Elite Pirates are also capable of rendering themselves invulnerable to attack, though the Ingsmashers shields can be overloaded while the Elite Pirate will only deactivate their energy siphon system when they choose to. | *Ingsmashers share several similarities with [[Elite Pirate]]s.
