Two-handed part breaks

Hi! I love the game a lot, and I've got two questions, so I'll start with the smaller one.

In the mechanics shop, the Arbelist's parts and stratagems all use Fin/Dur to attack, except the Shoulder Mortar which uses Fin/Mob. Considering its Tank Buster strategem still uses Fin/Dur, I'm assuming that's a typo?

Second, if a part that takes up two arm slots, like the Berserker's Blaze Axe, were to break, what happens? I'm assuming each "slot" text box kinda functions as its own arm, so for example, if the arm with the Stratagems breaks, then you lose access to the Stratagems but still have the other arms stat boosts and push/pull negation, and vice versa? Or does the whole axe stay active until both arm slots are broken? And if you were have the Super Robot Helm that lets you take a two-handed Arm Slot in 1 hand, I'm assuming that if that arm breaks then the whole weapon is lost since the entire weapon occupies 1 slot now, instead of your Mec weirdly having three arm slots?

Hiya!! Thank you for the kind words and the awesome questions!!


Yeah that's some of a slew of Typos that are getting fixed in 0.14 ((Soon...ish... probably...))


So two handed parts actually fully break if either one of the slots is broken! ((It's a major tradeoff of these otherwise very powerful weapons)) One of the advantages of Super Robot Helm is you're halving the chance of this happening (and freeing up an arm slot). The reason 2-handed parts spread their text across 2 "parts" is just to make use of the space, it's all meant as one contiguous part. ((Of note though, if it break it only counts as 1 Part Break))


Hope that helped clarify things for you!

It did clarify things, thank you! That makes sense with how terrifying they are, looking at the Trencher's Hyper Cannon in particular where literally everything it does is a super weapon!
