- Update 2.28.0: Wrist Mounted Laser Blades
- This week's update adds a full Granvir's worth of parts with the new mobility oriented FJ series. The new FJ01 Turbulence legs feature a continuous boost that applies less heat after a brief amount of activation. The FJ01 Surveyor complements it with low weight and a short range radar to watch your back in a melee. Finally, the FJ01 Wing arms reduce dashing heat cost and support 3 wrist mounted laser blade variants.
- The new wrist blade armatures cover a variety of different approaches to melee. The Dragon Tooth is extremely long but comes with a high heat cost to activate. The Dragon Claw launches energy waves with each attack and incurs a moderate heat cost with each shot. The Dragon Tail rapidly spins dealing damage and parrying melee attacks while contact is maintained and incurs the lowest heat cost.
