## Description and Alternative Items

*For the alternative item, see Relentless*

Artinia's Gambit is an upgraded Relentless. It is a Light Machine Gun that is the most balanced gun in the class. Its masterwork perk lets it detonate combos when it reloads, but the user must be very close to the enemies.

Artinia's Gambit, like all Light Machine Guns can be made into a Primer just by using a component called Focused Freeze. Using this component will make this weapon an ice primer through the component’s masterwork perk, enabling Artinia's Gambit to put enemies under the  frozen status when 10 continuous shots reach an enemy.

Artinia's Gambit used with Focused Freeze can make it a priming detonator, where it can prime enemies and detonate combo explosions.

This item has a special ability, which is a procedural perk that can be activated by performing an action mentioned in its masterwork perk.

**Masterwork Perk**: When reloading, detonates a Combo explosion on primed targets in the immediate area.
