The '''Arm''' (豪腕 ''Gouwan'', literally meaning "Strong Arm") is a type of [[weapon]] introduced in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. These weapons typically fit firmly over [[Pit]]'s entire arm, hence its name. Not to be confused with the [[Mallet]]. | |||
==Attributes== | ==Attributes== | ||
The Arm is a blunt weapon that is very effective for melee attacks, although its range is rather limited like that of the [[Claws]]. This weapon category is said to be among the strongest in the game, only being surpassed by the [[Club]] and possibly the [[Cannon]] categories. The Arm is balanced in that it has both a strong melee and projectile attack, although this powerful combination does come with its shortcomings. Executing both types of attacks can be rather slow, and the projectiles themselves don't move as fast as those from other weapons. Despite their large size, Arms do not affect the user's running speed. | The Arm is a blunt weapon that is very effective for melee attacks, although its range is rather limited like that of the [[Claws]]. This weapon category is said to be among the strongest in the game, only being surpassed by the [[Club]] and possibly the [[Cannon]] categories. The Arm is balanced in that it has both a strong melee and projectile attack, although this powerful combination does come with its shortcomings. Executing both types of attacks can be rather slow, and the projectiles themselves don't move as fast as those from other weapons. Despite their large size, Arms do not negatively affect the user's running speed, as running speed with this type of weapon is good. The special attack makes Pit unleash a fury of punches, which resemble the [[Brawler Claws]]' continuous fire, that damages any enemy at close range. | ||

| style="text-align: center;"|A variation that is equipped with a massive drill that can be launched at enemies. Despite its appearance, it's not exactly designed for melee. It does however have great homing ability. When the drill projectile makes contact, it will continue to chip away at the enemy for some time. Its knockback is also quite scary! | |||

<p style="text-align: center;">'''[[Bomber Arm]]'''</p> | |||

<p style="text-align: center;">'''[[Bowl Arm]]'''</p> | |||
| style="text-align: center;"|A variant with a black and red color scheme that resembles a Japanese ramen bowl. It charges very fast and has good homing abilities, but it generally lacks power. Unlike other arms, the rapid fire rolls on the ground instead of in the air. | |||

<p style="text-align: center;">''' | <p style="text-align: center;">'''[[End-All Arm]]'''</p> | ||
| style="text-align: center;"| | | style="text-align: center;"|An arm that specializes in both range and melee attacks. Though it takes a long time to charge, its continuous fire is deadly, particularly when fired during a side dash. However, it does slow the user's movement somewhat. It is said to resemble a drop of [[Hades]]' skin. | ||

| style="text-align: center;"| | | style="text-align: center;"|One of the [[Zodiac Weapons]], this arm is inspired by the second astrological sign in the Zodiac. It does the most melee damage out of any arm, while its ranged attacks are powerful but lack range and homing ability. It can be found in [[Chapter 4]], where it is hidden in the room after the first [[Eggplant Wizard]] at the bottom of a glowing pit near a [[Clubberskull]]. | ||

| style="text-align: center;"|A | | style="text-align: center;"|A variant which looks like a disc shooter with a blue center base, a red-colored covering, and a golden handle. Its regular melee attacks are weak, but its melee dash attack does significant damage. Its back-dash charge shot sends foes flying into the air, leaving them vulnerable to follow-up attacks. | ||

It fires projectiles similar to what the Kraken shoots from its mouth during the boss battle which travel somewhat slowly, but feature strong homing abilities. Also has powerful melee strength. | ||
