Together, we created an entirely new build for the S.W.O.R.D. UNIT 190, featuring a unique mechanic never seen before in War Robots: actual melee combat. S.W.O.R.D. can fly into the air, fire its built-in weapon from one hand, and then dash toward the enemy to strike with a blade in the other — bringing close-quarters action to a new level. The new energy weapons — ARM M-83 and L-80 — also introduce a fresh mechanic called percentage damage. In addition to dealing standard damage, they apply a small percentage of the target’s total Durability, making them especially effective against high-Durability enemies. WARD DSC-6 is an excellent companion for all types of flying robots — especially those that activate Absorber shields when taking off, like S.W.O.R.D. This drone allows your robot to apply Lockdown while protected by the shield, and boosts damage the longer the robot stays airborne. Meanwhile, Miharu Sharpe brings her combat expertise to the battlefield, enabling you to instantly execute low-Durability enemies when the robot performs its melee attack. ##### S.W.O.R.D UNIT 190 _銃撃戦にナイフを持ち込むのは、最善の選択である場合。_ **Skyfall Slash:** SWORD Unit 190 takes flight, leaving a teleportation beacon behind, accelerates, and activates the Absorber shield. During flight, the robot's built-in weapon is active, dealing damage to a percentage of enemy Durability. Upon reactivating the ability, the robot makes a dash and attacks nearby enemies with its sword. Reactivation is only possible when there is a target within the required distance. After the ability ends, the robot teleports back to the point where it began its flight. Built-in weapon range: 500 m. Durability Percentage Damage: 2% Sword dash range: 500 m. **ABSORBER:** Damage absorbed by the shield partially enhances the sword for close-range attacks.
