Their primary mode of attack is creating shock waves by slamming their arms into the ground,<ref name="Logbook" /> by alternating between arms, they can generate shock waves in rapid succession. A larger shock wave can be generated when the Ingsmasher slams both are into the ground simultaneously. These Mechanoids are not just limited to shock waves for attack. When a target is out of reach they are armed with [[Ingsmasher Missile Launcher|missile launchers]] that fire several homing projectiles.<ref name="Logbook" /> At close range, the Ingsmashers will attack by hitting their targets with their powerful arms.

*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.
