The base regeneration speed of the Elegant Rage was too slow.
Ves and Alexa conducted further examinations on the unusual third order living mech.
The plasma cutter created a bunch more shallow grooves on different portions of the mech's exterior.
They managed to discover a few rules.
"The Elegant Rage's metallic components have gained regenerative properties, but the effects are so weak that they can be ignored over the course of a single engagement. The reason why the metallic components can restore themselves at all is probably due to the infusion of wood energy. However, the elemental properties are in conflict with each other. According to the RA's internal database on E energy attribute interactions, wood energy has an antagonistic relationship with metal energy. The common saying is that metal cuts wood. It is not a surprise that they are unable to get along."
