Trivia[]
- The Tipedo is the first Staff-type weapon to deal Slash as its primary damage type instead of Impact.
- This is the second weapon that requires two different pre-made weapons in order to craft, the first being the Redeemer.
- The weapon's design is based on the Monk's Spade(otherwise known as the Crescent Moon Spade due to the inverted, crescent-shaped blade on the opposite end),which was used bytraveling Buddhist Monksas a defensive weapon as well asa tool to give proper burial to people whodied on the roads during their journeys and denied their last rites by their untimely demise.
- Contrary to the real world model, the Tenno version does not feature the inverted crescent-shaped blade, which was used to catch ambushers' swords or keep wild animals at bay. The Tipedo does feature a slotted double crescent blade instead which appears to serve a similar purpose.
- The Tipedo appears to be used much like aGlaive(not to be confused with the in-game weapon ofthe same name), though with the distinction that Glaives are historically single-edged pole weapons while the Tipedo is double-edged due to the overall design being based on the Monk's Spade.
- The Tipedo was first shown in a concept along with other polearms during Devstream 15.
- Tipedo is the second staff to have Primed variant, first being Bo.
Bugs[]
- Although the Foundry will claim that you can craft the weapon if you have a BoPrime in your inventory, this is most likely a UI bug as it won't allow you to consume the Bo Prime to build the weapon.
- Despite its name, Zaws cannot be named "Tipedo", due to profanity.
