Tristan Wesseling was having the time of his life.
Ever since the Age of Dawn commenced, he experienced a renaissance.
His design philosophy, which largely hinged on the use of gems to augment the performance of mechs in an unconventional manner, suddenly acted as if it received a stimulant!
The gems he used to produce in the past were curiosities more than anything. They slightly improved the performance of mechs in a small but slightly distinguishable manner. Their effects were as significant as their size.
In fact, if not for the fact that his gems were so small and easy to install on a mech, nobody would have bothered with making use of his products.
Most people did not appreciate his work for that reason. What did it matter if his products was able to increase the damage output of a rifleman mech by 2 or 3 percent?
Would making the armor of a mech 5 percent more resilient truly extend its lifespan?
