# Time Upgrade Parts

The Time Upgrade is a future ARC upgrade part that resets build times but substantially increases consumption rate. It can be equipped and has a single upgrade slot so only 1 can be equipped at a time. Once equipped it cannot be removed.\
\
It has a random # of builds similar to the existing ARC upgrades. There are 3 types of equally likely Time upgrade parts with different numbers of builds in uniform random ranges. These build allocations are consumed whenever there is a build, similarly to the other ARC upgrades.&#x20;

```markup
Time Upgrade Type: # Builds Range
Time Compressor: [10, 30]
Time Combobulator: [12, 32]
Zeno's Arrow: [14, 34]
```

The effect of the Time Upgrade is to entirely **remove the build time multiplier** from the final build time calculations for minimum and maximum build times, and **multiply the consumption rate instead.**\
