As you journey through Lies of P, one of the initial weapons you'll be given is the Legion Arm, a prosthetic limb that Pinocchio wields as an addition to your primary weapon. While quite potent during the early phases of the game, as you make progress, you'll gain the ability not only to enhance your Legion Arm but also to craft entirely new ones, each endowed with unique capabilities.

If you're eager to unlock the full potential of your Legion Arms and explore the crafting of new ones, you've come to the right place. In this guide, we will provide you with a detailed yet comprehensive overview of how to craft and upgrade your Legion Arms in Lies of P, enabling you to harness the true power of your mechanical prosthetic as you prepare for the upcoming battles.

How To Unlock Legion Arm Crafting

While players initially have access to the Legion Arm and one or two of its variants (the Fulminis and the Puppet String) in the early stages of the game, the ability to craft and upgrade new ones becomes available later on. To reach this stage, players must traverse and clear the Vegnini Works area of the game, specifically defeating the challenging Kings Flame, Fuoco boss.

Fortunately, we've created a comprehensive guide dedicated to how to beat Kings Flame Fuoco in Lies of P, so make sure to consult it if you need tips on overcoming this formidable adversary, as it's not an easy task. Once you succeed, you'll rescue both Vegnini and his butler, Pulcinella, who will be transported back to Hotel Krat. Initiating a conversation with Vegnini at Hotel Krat will grant you access to the Vegnini Craft Machine.

This machine empowers you to upgrade your Legion Arms and craft new ones using Legion plugs. One of these plugs, obtained from defeating Fuoco earlier, is the High Powered Flame Amplifier. Utilizing this plug at the machine allows you to craft the Flameberge, a fire-based Legion Arm that operates similarly to the Fulminis.

However, this is just the beginning, as you'll notice that other arms are also available for crafting. To create them, you'll need to acquire the necessary Legion plugs. When you find more of these plugs, you can return to the machine and craft your next Legion Arm.

How To Unlock Legion Arm Upgrades

Regarding upgrades, you can enhance your Legion Arm's abilities by selecting the "Modify Legion Arm" option in the menu at the Vegnini Craft Machine. Upgrading your Legion Arms requires Legion Calibers/Magazines, which can be somewhat scarce, so it's wise to choose your upgrades thoughtfully.

For instance, if you favor the Fulminis for its stun capabilities in tight spots, you can upgrade it to allow Pinocchio to move while charging the arm, an incredibly useful skill when enemies either move away from you or approach for an attack, and you need to reposition while maintaining range. This is merely one of several upgrades possible at the machine, so be sure to explore all your options when enhancing your Legion Arm.

Lastly, you can activate or upgrade to more potent variations of your Legion Arm by using the "Craft Legion Arm" option and offering one of the same types of Legion Plugs for that Arm. For instance, if you come across another High Powered Flame Amplifier, you can unlock the next variant of the Flameberge, granting it an extended fire attack range.

Ultimately, Legion Arms become significantly more customizable and useful tools as you invest resources into them. In our opinion, it's worthwhile to scavenge the world for the materials needed to unlock and upgrade them to their fullest potential. Now that you know how to unlock upgrades and crafting for Legion Arms in Lies of P, you should be well-prepared to face whatever challenges the game throws your way.
