Description
The weapon is a trick weapon, and is made entirely of metallic alloys that can withstand intense heat and damage. It is heavily tech and dust based.

The “String” dissipates, releasing the tension from the arms, letting them snap straight into a staff made of the metal alloy. At the top of the longer arm, a thin plasma blade that is about one foot long protrudes out of the tip. The staff itself deals impact damage, whilst the plasma blade deals slash based damage.

Regular Dust Tubes
The blade shimmers red and heat seems to emanate from the weapon itself. Like the bow, the weapon will burn the flesh, and melt armour once upgraded. The blade became wavy, or it looked wavy, with Navy Blue energy colour. Unlike the bow, the Polearm became more flexible than metal, allowing more control and surprising angles of attack. Upgraded weapon provides Aura Regeneration Over Time. The blade takes on a golden glow with sparks of electricity periodically emanating from it. It deal less damage than usual, but gain the ability to shock and incapacitate the enemies, and is highly effective against synthetic enemies. Upgraded version allow the user to emit a small sized EMP blast whenever a parry is achieved. The blade takes on a light green tint and increases the attack speed of the weapon. Upgraded weapon will allow an even better cutting edge. The blade became caked with dirt and moss, and almost look like it was rusted. However, unlike its frail and brittle appearance, the blade was reinforced by the minerals within the Earth. However, this also make the weapon heavier. Upgraded will remove the rust and dirt, revealing a beautiful golden finish, and allow the weapon to function like heavy weapons. The blade hums with intense energy, and creates a temporary kinetic bubble shield around the weapon. Once upgraded, the kinetic shield will instead envelops the user. The blade seems to shine clearly, and emanates a frosty chill. It gains the ability to slow the enemies through its freezing chill. Upgraded weapon allows this chill to go stick on the enemies for a longer period of time by clinging on their clothing and armour, or fur if it was the Grimms. The blade becomes violet in colour and almost ethereal. Like the arrows, it gains the ability to phase through armour and strike the flesh, or through Flesh and strike the Organs. Upgraded allows the user to turn ethereal at the higher cost of charges. The blade glows bright orange and emanates an intense heat. Can only be used once before overheating, it will does horrific amount of damage to the enemy, and the user if he is not careful. The blade takes on a greyish energy glow, and emanates steam around the blade itself. It gains the ability to scald enemies that it hits, and once upgraded, will be able to create a field of mirage, cloaking it's user.

History
During his time in Signal, Doug was required to design and create his own personal weapon. Already knowing his strong points, he poured his all into creating the Sentinel's Arc, a hybrid between a Longbow Plasma Caster and a Polearm with an Energy Blade. This weapon became his own masterpiece, and something that he always keep improving on through time and experience.

Trivia

 * The inspiration for this weapon, along with its Elemental Caster Status, came from the weapon called Tonbo in the video game Warframe.
