The Thermal Mecha Knife is a Melee weapon introduced in the 21.7.0 update.

Appearance

It is a knife with a camouflaged handle and a steel blade with a red-white edge. Its blade has a "H2" imprinted in it, and appears to be a similar model to Ninja Swordpad.

Performance

Use this how you would use the Storm Hammer, but with a larger hitbox than most melees, Thermal Mecha Knife also has good mobility so use this to your advantage. When switching to this weapon, there is always a pull-out delay that lasts around half a second.

Strategy

Tips

  • Use it like a stronger version of the Core Sword.
  • It also has a very long melee range and hitbox, use it to your advantage.
  • Try to attack before getting close to the enemy, as attacking too late can result in missing the enemy because shooting lowers your mobility for a moment.
  • Try to attack on the sides of the enemy if you are having a hard time trying to kill since it has a huge hitbox but a short range, so use this to your advantage.

Counters

  • Simply shoot them before they get to you.
  • If you simply cannot defeat them, switch to your heavy weapon if you have the Last Word module combo equipped before you die, to at least weaken or kill them.
  • Use a weapon with slow the target/disable jump to slow them, as this weapon's range itself is not very long.

Changelog

21.7.0
  • Initial release.
22.8.0
  • Damage increased by 20%.

Trivia

  • The design itself might be influenced by the Core Sword and Ninja Swordpad.
  • The blade's edge seems to be a heated edge to effectively cut through metal.
  • This weapon doesn't actually have area damage, it just has a really big hitbox.
  • Despite being rather large with a slow fire rate, this weapon has a rather high mobility.
