Arc Welders are weapons in Let It Die. Could best be described as an electric shotgun, firing a spread of electricity and hitting a wide but very short ranged area. It can be devastating on a single opponent because each electrical shot can hit for critical damage. The downside to this weapon is the long charge time, leaving you vulnerable to attack. At Mastery Level 6 you gain the ability that reduces charge time but it still doesn't make it an instant-shot type of firearm.

Blueprint Locations

• Welding Gun
  • Has an obtainable Blueprint that can be found on floors 21-30.

Notes

• Behaves much like the shotgun but has even shorter range.
• Capable of dealing huge amounts of damage if you have high Luck stats due to the critical damage percent increase.
• It takes a little while to charge and fire, leaving you open to attacks. Be mindful of your distance, especially with enemies with longer reaching weapons.
• The Rage Move makes an enemy immobile for a few seconds. This can be used to either run away, heal yourself or switch to a stronger weapon that is otherwise too slow to hit a moving/blocking enemy.

Mastery Levels

Meijin Tip
		Gah! My feet... Stuck... You found a Welding Gun weapon? You gotta judge the time between readying and firing if you want to hit enemies. I stop 'em first with a Rage Move then attack normally. Up the Mastery Level and the time it takes to fire will be shortened!
