The '''Man-at-Legs''' first appeared as a boss in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Unlike the two other known Arachnorbs, it is a biomechanical creature and has very spindly feet that can't squash Pikmin, making its battle strategy different. It moves around quickly, and stops only to use its blaster-like weapon to attack when it has been agitated with attacks. It has its flaws, though; there is a visible laser it uses to target the Pikmin, making it obvious where it's going to shoot. These enemies are usually found in arenas that have barriers and obstacles that can be used as shields against the blasts.

The best way to defeat it is to run for cover when it begins firing, attack when it lowers its body, and hide again when it shakes the Pikmin off. Another great way to defeat this beast is to take a large mob of [[Purple Pikmin]], and while it lays dormant in the ground, pummel it with all of them by throwing them; this should lower its [[HP|health]] substantially if done correctly. When it dies, it hisses loudly, then explodes spectacularly, quite differently from its relatives. As a side note, this enemy cannot be [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] while it is dormant.{{clear}}
