Mechaneer's Tricksleeves

The perk improves how well Sidearms work in the air, how fast they ready and how fast they reload. While you are critically wounded, swapping to a Sidearm reloads it and increases its damage, and Sidearm final blows during that effect reload the weapon and extend its duration.

It is a low-health Sidearm perk: the second half is switched on by being critically wounded. The description on the item itself refers to a quip from the self-styled Lady Olu Alderdice about who will not be the one it ends badly for.

The game's collection entry for Mechaneer's Tricksleeves gives its source as exotic engrams and extremely rare world drops. Rahool decodes exotic engrams in the Tower, and the engram previews list this piece. A loadout holds one exotic armor piece, so Mechaneer's Tricksleeves and a second exotic helmet, gauntlets, chest piece or boots cannot be equipped together.
