Besides having access to a boatload of dangerous weapons that scale on different stats, Pinocchio also uses Legion Arms to annihilate enemies in Lies of P. These arms come in all shapes and sizes. At launch, the game had 8 different types of Legion Arms.
So, which arms are better than others? The game has a wide variety of enemies that are weak against different attack/element types. We have spent an extensive time in testing all arms to see which ones are better than the others.
We will rank them based on how early they become useful and what kind of playstyle they support. Having the right arm for each fight is necessary, especially if you are trying to cheese an annoying boss in Lies of P.
So, let’s start discussing the list and look at the different Legion Arms in Lies of P!
Puppet String
![Puppet String](http://whatifgaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Puppet-String-1024x576.jpg)
Weight: 8.5
Motivity: C
Technique: A
Advance: D
This is the very first legion arm you will get from Eugene at Krat Hotel. Puppet String is by far the most op legion arm in Lies of P. It lets you target and pull enemies towards you.
Excellent for isolating targets and dealing tons of posture damage as well. You can also use the same wire to fling yourself toward the enemy for a quick attack (once you upgrade the legion arm).
- At Level 1: Pinocchio can fling himself toward the enemy.
- At Level 2: Let’s you dodge any incoming attacks right after you’ve poked an enemy with the string.
- At Level 3: Unlocks a follow-up attack that flings P towards the enemy and launches him in the air for a devastating overhead blow.
Aegis
![Aegis - Lies of P Legion Arms](http://whatifgaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Aegis-1024x576.jpg)
Weight: 12.4
Motivity: B
Technique: B
Advance: D
Coming in at #2, many consider the Aegis the best legion arm in Lies of P. This legion arm lets you carry a traditional shield in your left hand and block attacks with it. Not just block, but counter-attack too with the embedded impact blaster.
This legion arm makes the game more approachable for non-soul players. You are defending and attacking at the same time, which makes this a perfect pick for many.
You can craft this legion arm from the Venigni Machine at Hotel Krat by spending x1 Legion Plug.
- At Level 1: Pinocchio can attack enemies while holding the guard button.
- At Level 2: Let’s you use the Fable Arts meter to perform a parry using the shield.
- At Level 3: You can charge the legion arm for a more powerful attack as you perform a perfect parry using the shield.
Flamberge
![Flamberge - Lies of P Legion Arms](http://whatifgaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Flamberge-1024x576.jpg)
Weight: 8.2
Motivity: C
Technique: D
Advance: A
Things start to get a bit more situational from here on out. All of the remaining legion arms are good against a specific type of enemy. You’ll be fighting corrupted puppets and diseased monsters in Lies of P. Fire damage is very useful against all of them, especially the monsters.
Flamberge lets P wield a flamethrower that builds overheat status on enemies and eventually burns them. If the enemy is too weak to fire, like the Fallen Archbishop Andreus, then this legion arm will instantly deplete their HP.
You need to defeat the King’s Flame Fuoco boss in Lies of P to obtain the High-powered Flame Amplifier and then use Venigni’s machine to craft the Flameberge legion arm.
- At Level 1: Increases the maximum range of the flamethrower.
- At Level 2: The flames become more potent after some time. Meaning it will build up overheating status faster.
- At Level 3: You can release a fire explosion after spewing out flames to cause more damage.
Fulminis

Weight: 7.9
Motivity: B
Technique: D
Advance: B
This legion arm lets Pinocchio release electric shock blasts. They don’t have much range and are only suitable for very specific scenarios where you are fighting close to the enemy. Still, a very good choice against puppet enemies as they are weak to Shock damage.
Once you’ve defeated the Scrapped Watchman boss in Lies of P, take the Overcharged Storage Battery to Eugene at Krat Hotel, and she’ll craft the Fulminis legion arm for you.
- At Level 1: You can move around while holding the legion arm button to charge the shock blast.
- At Level 2: You will emit sparks from the legion arm while charging the main blast to inflict more damage.
- At Level 3: P can charge the Fulminis even more and let out more damaging shock blasts.
Falcon Eyes

Pinocchio has this legion arm equipped when the game starts. It can only perform a punching attack and cannot be leveled up in any way.
The only good thing about this legion arm is that it weighs the least compared to others. So, if you are facing weight balance issues and don’t rely on legion arms, use this one to reduce your overall weight.
