This persona forms a psychic bond with the weapon's wielder and grants or inflicts certain traits based on the personality of the intelligence. This bond is usually both exclusive of other persona weapons and permanent, lasting until either the wielder dies or the weapon is destroyed. The exception is weapons with the Freewielder trait, which form no permanent bond and do not prevent the use of other persona weapons. Additionally, the bond is broken at the moment of death rather than the state of being dead. The bond remains broken if the wielder is [[Resurrector mech serum|resurrected]], though they can relink with the weapon if no-one else has. |

In addition to the traits the weapons provide, they also improve the combat capabilities of the weapons compared to the baseline versions. The wielder and weapon synchronize their reflexes and attack with frightening speed, accuracy, and creativity. Statistically, this is not represented by an improvement to base damage, but instead by a decreased cooldown time between attacks of between 20 and 30%, increasing [[DPS]] by a similar margin. As the baseline weapons are already incredibly dangerous, this places the persona weapons as the best melee weapons on offer. | In addition to the traits the weapons provide, they also improve the combat capabilities of the weapons compared to the baseline versions.

Each persona weapon has a randomly generated name in addition to their regular weapon name. For example, a given persona monosword might be styled as "Ragarmar, persona monosword (Legendary)". These names are randomly generated so repeats are possible even in the same playthough, however the number of potential combinations make this possibility small. | Each persona weapon has a randomly generated name in addition to their regular weapon name.
