If you play as WX-78, you want to hunt these as much as possible early in the game. He's immune to poison making their attacks nearly useless, but they also count as sea creatures. It means that everytime you kill one of them, you have a chance to spawn Floaty Boaty Knights and get the precious precious gear. You also get a crazy amount of monster meat which is always useful.
