== | ==Gameplay== | ||
This weapon is a handheld [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railgun railgun] that is especially damning against any unit with a [[Absorption shield|shield]], be it a [[Centurion]], [[Captain]], [[Minotaur]], [[Wizard]], [[Knight]], [[Taken]]... if your target's got an elemental shield, it can be certain that the Arbalest will deliver a world of hurt to said target. That said, its rate-of-fire and reload speed leave something to be desired. | |||
It should be remembered that despite being mounted in the primary slot, this weapon inflicts Kinetic damage despite using Special ammunition, so if the player has a weapon in the energy/secondary slot that also consumes Special ammunition, he/she may find themselves in trouble once their resource starts to run out. | |||
