Ohmi fights with her legs? Strange. With the forest of servo-arms they usually grow on their back, I've always thought tech priests were... topheavy.
Wierzbowski is an unusual techpriest.
Ah..uh..yes. But I was referring to the specific nature of her augmetics and her particular technological goals. For many techpriests, the association with augmetics and strength is a common paradigm. They seek agelessness, immunity to damage and physical strength superior to that of organic equivalents.
Indeed, it is my understanding that most, if not all augmetics are made with this in mind. Mr Marr?
Even minor augmetics like the Commissars shoulder giver her a pretty serious advantage.
Exactly! But Wierzbowski’s limbs seem to be largely only as strong as flesh ones of equivalent size would be. When it comes to tasks involving larger weights, the sort that Marr or Yaroslava would jump at the chance to do by themselves, Wierzbowski always asks for somebodies help.
Also to subtly check them out when they lift.
You are NOT subtle, ma’am.
But her focus seems to be more on efficiency of space than raw power. The way one of her arms, is an arm but also transforms into a cyberfamiliar, the way her right leg works as both a leg and a housing for a servo skull.
She has exchanged strength for versatility. I suppose as a consequence, her body might also be less cumbersome and awkward.
Just as well, as with average, even low strength, a melee fighting style that favours ease of movement and momentum based attacks may be more favourable.
A spinning back kick will know away smaller opponents and a front drop kick will take down most things human sized. At least long enough for you to draw your guns and fight as the Omnisiah intended.
I do rather dislike physical contact in a violent context.
I’ve seen you move and fight okay with smaller mechadendrites attached, but some of the ones you use ARE heavy and awkward. Strong enough to peel open a bulkhead. How do you close combat fight with those attached?
Let me draw you a picture.
[subject slowly lowers the sketch from their face]
Wiezbowski, I feel the world was not ready for your art.
