      Damage on this is, based on crafting kit level, 5 - 8 - 11 - 14 - 17. Longpin is the exact same, but has a shorter range and breaks through defense stance of some enemies

        Far and beyond the most flexible tool. Cheap, deals a good amount of damage, flies in a straight line. Honestly, combining it with Silkshot (I prefer the Weavers' version because it's a handheld railgun) and either Cogwork Wheel or Voltvessel feels unfair. Architect Crest is a fireworks show and I'm all for it.
