Notes[]
- The weapon's standard attack is a simple lunging punch. The charged attack causes the AC to engage the pilebunker's explosive charge for the spike with a short delay in order to deliver a short-ranged but devastating uppercut.
- The charged attack has very little momentum behind it, even with the AB-J-137 KIKAKU equipped, and is only usable if the target is right next to the user. Coupled with the charging delay, the weapon requires a fair bit of skill and timing to get the most out of.
- The Ashmead's charged attack has the single-most powerful alpha-strike damage of any weapon, especially when the target is staggered. So much so, that some boss fights can be prematurely cut short because it kills them before they can advance to a next phase.
