Why Almost Nobody Farms Them

• They are far from the Area 2 Quest Giver, which lengthens every round trip.
• They are very spread out from each other: impossible to apply the usual strategy of gathering all NPCs to kill them at once.
• Their fruit powers hit Elemental users, so the usual immunity doesn't save you like elsewhere.
• The source's verdict is clear: even though their quest gives more EXP than Diamond's, it remains difficult, and it's better to farm Swan Pirates instead.
• If you insist anyway, Buddha is the best choice against them.

Good to Know

• They wear a scientist's coat, protective goggles covering their eyes, and have black hair.
• They behave exactly like Sorcerers.
• Factory Staff and Sorcerers are the only two enemies in the game capable of using multiple different Blox Fruits.
• The announced immunity at Lv. 820 concerns their basic attacks: their fruit attacks pass through no matter what.
• They arrived with Update 8.
