Knocklem No. 159

GroundSize LNot rideableDay & night
✦ Rarity · Epic — "215 parts, fully reassemblable"

Steel Guardian Mode raises Knocklem's own Attack and Defense by 50–200% for a limited time — a double buff where most Pals get one or the other. At Rarity 9 with a 260 CombiRank, it is an endgame construct that fights like one.

Partner skill
Steel Guardian Mode — "When activated, a steel resolve increases Knocklem's Attack by (50~200)% and Defense by (50~200)% for a limited time." Both halves scale together, so a maxed partner rank triples the Pal for the duration. Time the activation rather than opening with it.

The story of Knocklem

"Can be disassembled into 215 parts. It is capable of being reassembled and functioning again even if the parts are scattered. Mixing parts from different individuals will trigger a malfunction due to mistaken identity."

The Paldeck gives an exact figure: 215 parts, and it can be scattered and rebuilt and will work again. Then the complication — mix parts between two individuals and the result malfunctions, confused about which one it is. A robot with a precisely documented identity problem.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Sanctuary spawn means a wanted level. The Ruined Fortress City alpha is the quieter route.

Attack and Defense at once is rare. It survives its own aggression.

The World Tree population at Lv 71–73 is the higher-level option.
