Although this is not the correct purpose, the blades can be launched like a giant tomahawk. When launched, they are strong enough to kill a person, or blind the eyes of a Titan. Average gear sets that don’t tend to perform well on the battlefield. They can only be described as ‘fine’.

A variant design specialized in fighting humans later made its debut during the Anti-Personnel Control Squad's battles with the Survey Corps. After learning of the threat that Marley posed, this variant is adopted for mass use while the traditional gear is retained for use in individuals with specialized tasks. [citation needed] The vertical equipment tends to be less efficient in open spaces because the user does not have too many spots where the hooks can be reeled. The hooks are able to pierce Titan flesh and vertical equipment can be as fast or even faster than a Titan. Fan Section - Gas is blown directly into the fan to make it rotate. [3] The pressure of the gas is regulated to manipulate the output. [citation needed] Training You shouldn’t really be equipping your character with C-tier gear sets, and the only time you should be is if you have nothing else in your inventory. Vertical maneuvering equipment training is a rigorous process that allows humans, which are limited to two-dimensional movements, to adapt to movement in the third dimension. [6]Due to the blades shattering upon impact with hardened substances such as hardened Titans, or when Mikasa's blades chipped after killing an Abnormal Titan, this could imply that the blades are made of a very high carbon steel or a high chromium content stainless steel. Adding too much carbon to a blade can make them very hard, but very brittle (meaning unable to bend and cope with higher, structural stress), and chromium also makes the steel very hard and rust-resistant, but very brittle, as well. More advanced techniques include changing directions while still being reeled in as demonstrated by Jean Kirstein. [1] Following this, the old design is seen when Zeke displays the gear stolen from Mike, and being worn by Keith Shadis. [10] [11] This indicates that the change in design is due to improvements in technology.

The simplest move possible with the vertical equipment is simply aiming and firing the grapple hooks at an object and then activating the gas mechanism to reel oneself toward said object. They can then disconnect the hook and continue moving forward.

The steel is created in the factories of production cities, where it is melted down and forged into the metal needed for the blades. The metal cannot be produced in any other place. [5] It is made from a mix of iron bamboo and mixtures of rare metals to make not only stronger but also lighter. Although this is not the correct purpose, the blades can be launched like a giant tomahawk. When launched, they are strong enough to kill a person, or blind both the eyes of a Titan.
