Trivia[]

  • Stropha is Latin for Greek strophè (στροφή) which means a turn, bend or twist, probably refers to its function as a gunblade.
  • Text on the end of the barrel section translates to "GUN BLADE" in Corpus.

Bugs[]

  • In-game, the Heavy Attack damage displayed is 1,100, the actual value is 2,800 however.
    • The displayed Heavy Attack damage is a 5x multiplier of the Stropha's 220 base damage, the actual value is only a 4x multiplier from the Stropha's shot damage of 700.
