Understand Arbucep
Useful when…
- Use its described homing projectiles and area detonations against targets or groups.
- Consider its six listed combined-element payload attacks when choosing among Arch-Guns with different attack patterns.
Listed attacks and payloads
The description says Arbucep fires homing missiles bearing combined-element payloads that detonate in an area on impact. The detailed entry lists six attacks, each with a projectile component of 16 damage and a radial component of 114 damage: Blast, Corrosive, Gas, Magnetic, Radiation, and Viral respectively. Each listed attack shows 10% critical chance, 2.9× critical multiplier, and 34.9% status chance.
Handling and build details
The weapon lists an automatic trigger, 1.5 fire rate, six-round magazine, 1.72-second reload, and 12.5 accuracy. Its polarities are Madurai and Naramon. The listed build price is 25,000 and build time is 43,200 seconds.
Comparing other Arch-Guns
Morgha is described as a double-barreled slug weapon with a secondary air-burst mortar. Cortege is described as a heavy flamethrower with a separate explosive secondary mode. Kuva Ayanga is described as an automatic grenade launcher. These entries describe different attack patterns; they do not establish an overall winner.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The listed magazine size is six and reload time is 1.72 seconds.
- Each listed attack has separate projectile and radial damage components.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not infer six missiles per shot from the six listed payload attacks.
- Do not imply the payloads rotate or follow a particular firing sequence.
- Keep the projectile and radial components distinct when describing a listed attack.
