More places the wiki names
Hive Village, Distant Hive Village and the Waystation in the Border Zone also sell limbs (Hive Village: Hive Robotics Shop; Distant Hive Village: Hive Robotics Shop; the Waystation in the Border Zone: Robotics Workshop). The map has several markers with those names, and the wiki does not say which one, so they are not pinned; open the map and search the name.
What to know before you buy
From the wiki's Robot Limbs page:
- Fitting needs a missing limb: a character has to lose a natural limb first. The Limbs button in the inventory then lets you install a prosthetic like a weapon or armour.
- They need upkeep in the way Skeletons do. A Robotics Repair Kit fixes cut damage on the spot; wear damage needs a Skeleton Repair Bed, usually found where limbs are sold.
- In the Holy Nation, wearers are seen as Skeletons and attacked unless the faction reputation is 50 or higher, and even then the wearer cannot talk to its members until the limbs come off.
- Animals cannot lose limbs or use prosthetics.
