Best Legion Arms in Lies of P

Legion Arms each have their own unique strengths and features. One can be found to suit each playstyle or may even inspire new combat approaches once equipped. 

• Classic Sword and Shield - Aegis: To regain a sense of the classic souls-like combat weapon combo- a sword and shield, players can opt to equip the Aegis which acts as a shield and allows players to block stronger attacks from large Bosses and Enemies. Offensive features can then be added later on upon upgrade. Unless you perfect the second level the third level will be useless, perhaps I was using it incorrectly/poorly but I could never pull off the counter without the parry.
• Strategic Combat - Deux Ex Machina: The Deux Ex Machina provides a less aggressive attack option and allows players to assume a strategic position since the effects of this arm are not immediate. Deux Ex Machina gives players the ability to plant mines that blow after a time limit. Players will need to anticipate the enemies' position and adjust their own position accordingly in attempts to lure opponents within the area of effects to optimize damage output with the Deux Ex Machina. This is a slow progression weapon, meaning, you may be able to set traps but you will be going quite slow while doing so.
• Ranged Attacks - Falcon Eyes: Fans of ranged attacks can opt for the Falcon Eyes which is essentially a cannon that can fire powerful bullets at a distance for those who do not prefer to run head-first into the heat of battle. This has a downside of stepping back while using so be careful if you want to use it while on a beam or near a ledge as each shot will pull you backward.

• Dynamic Combat - Puppet String: This allows you to pull enemies in from a distance to do a fatal backstab attack. Take a step forward and get the timing right to achieve these fatal attacks. Also, when fully leveled, you can do an immense set of damage while flinging yourself into the air. It does have an excellent stun ratio on large enemies causing superior stagger or fall and damage. The launch attack will also fully stagger allowing you to close the gap for a fatal attack preparation. It is a quick-to-kill and risky Legion Arm. There are drawbacks as you can rarely get knocked out of the air (Rifleman Puppets especially) or launch yourself into an attack, but that can be avoided by dodging after hooking an enemy with the second level. It does have issues with groups of enemies because of the stunning unless you have level two and dodge to where there isn't an enemy to get in your way then you can usually kill the group with the third-level launch attack. Stairs (so much for the high ground Obi-Wan), walls, or even minute debris or lips will stop you from finishing your launch so BE READY to guard, dodge, or attack. Sometimes it doesn't function correctly but I'd say the benefit outweighs the risk as you learn to use it.

How to Switch/ Modify and Upgrade Legion Arms in Lies of P? 

Players can Switch Legion Arms at any activated Stargazer point. They can be upgraded to have more potent effects or increase their stats. Since they have limited uses and are used as secondary equipment, players will need to restore them once in a while between uses to continue using them by resting at a Stargazer. If there is no nearby Stargazer, players can also save up specific items to restore the Legion arm without having to visit a Stargazer.

Are there Different Legion Arms?

From executing a powerful strike — to charging and releasing a short-range electric shock that briefly stuns enemies, a flamethrower arm that allows Pinocchio to burn enemies that are caught within the flame, transforming Pinocchio's left arm into a mini cannon that shoots out an explosive cannon shell that burrows into the enemy and eventually explodes, as well as a Legion Arm that allows Pinocchio to shoot out a wire (just like Scorpion from Mortal Kombat), providing Pinocchio the ability to pull enemies towards him or fly towards the enemy.

The Legion Arm is surely a unique weapon for Pinocchio to use in combat and gives the character justice for being a customizable mechanoid puppet. It is important to note that each Legion Arm can be upgraded by using a material called Quenching Stones, and by doing so, upgrading a Legion Arm will unlock more effects, increased stats, and additional abilities. And of course, equipping a certain Legion Arm will temporarily modify Pinocchio's stats such as improving his attributes and adding more weight to his frame.
