Description

A section of a mech's bionic spinal column. Can be used for the Ascension of Lightning characters.

Lore

The most important central component of the mech that was built in imitation of the borisin. Though the body that nurtured it no longer has even a sliver of life left, this component still maintains the "Slaughter Algorithm" inherited from primordial days and buried deep within its genes. "While you see a monster that can never be killed, I see infinite parts to salvage. That's the difference in perspective."

Farm it smart

A BOSS material. The biggest pain: weekly bosses cap rewards per week, so this is often the BOTTLENECK that traps a character at the 70→80 ascension. Only fight the boss dropping mats for the character you are ACTUALLY building — do not spread thin.
