Drill-X is a giant drilling machine in Skylanders: Giants. Kaos stole him for his plan to tunnel his way to the Lost City of Arkus. Drill-X is found in his oil rig where, under orders of Kaos, begins drilling his way to the lost Arkeyan city.

Personality

Drill-X sings to express himself[2], much to the ire of his Molekin workers. While working under Kaos, he would secretly take away some of that treasure he finds for the evil Portal Master for himself.

Boss Fight

There are different phases in the battle, and in between each phase, Drill-X starts singing. First, he drills the ground, attacking with rocks. In the second phase he sweeps his drill, and on the third he smashes his drill, leaving waves of fire. He summons lasers throughout the fight.

Drill-X's Song

First Verse

It's the end of the track, Skylander!
This drill-bot is on the scene!
I'll knock you forward and back
with a robo attack
'cause you're messing with the wrong machine!

Second Verse

You don't stand a chance, Skylander!
Even though you won that round...
'Cause my power won't drop
And my driller won't stop
'til the City of Arkus is found!

Third Verse

Hold on, time out, Skylander!
There's something up with my drill.
But you better watch out,
You'll be down for the count
When I show you my smashing skills!

Fourth Verse

What did you do, Skylander?!
You've just won the final round!
I can't keep the beat
I'm feeling defeat,
And my systems are all shutting down...
