Changing handles alongside modifying them in Lies of P is not just a mechanic; it is your way to craft the ultimate weapon. Once you have eliminated Mad Donkey, you will acquire the Enigma Assembly Tool. This powerful item will make you able to change handles in Lies of P. You will get your hands on a number of weapons and handles while exploring the world full of frenzied puppets. Lies of P gives you the freedom to combine these two. However, there are no clear instructions on how to do it. We will walk you through the process of changing handles in Lies of P.
To change handles in Lies of P, you must defeat the second main boss, Mad Donkey. He will drop the Enigma Assembly Tool, with which you will be able to modify weapons.
Once you have the Assembly Tool, changing handles is simple. You can either visit a Stargazer or talk to an NPC named Eugenie at Hotel Krat.
Your best option is to pursue a talk with Eugenie as you will have access to the courtyard once you change handles and get new weapons:
- Select the Assemble Weapons” option.
- Choose the weapons you want to modify or create.
- Pick the handle and blade combination you prefer.
- Confirm your selection by clicking the square button on PS or the X button on Xbox.
In Lies of P, the Weapon Assembly System may seem complex initially. Here’s how it works:
Your Blade determines attack and guard attributes and the primary Fable Art. Your Handle scales with your stats and has a unique moveset and a secondary Fable Art.
For instance, if you prefer a different attack style for a weapon, you can combine the Blade of one weapon with a handle that suits your preferred style. Alternatively, if a weapon’s scaling doesn’t match your stats, attach it to a handle with better scaling in that specific stat.
In addition to changing them, you can alter handles in Lies of P. For this, you need different cranks that can be used to scale up your existing handles. You can get Cranks by exploring the world. These are gleaming blue orbs like other items. Moreover, you will be able to purchase Cranks from Pulcinella at Hotel Krat.
There are three types of Cranks, and each corresponds to a different stat:
- Motivity Crank- Strength
- Technique Crank- Dexterity
- Advanced Crank- Elemental or Intellect.
This is all you need to know about how to alter handles in Lies of P and create the best weapon that suits your combat style and deals massive damage.
