Hmm. That could be another challenge for me to try, along with "beat the whole game in one sitting" and "play every level with a random loadout".
And the Carbine is probably the weapon with the shortest time between 'obtain' and 'master the nuances of', at least from what I remember.
What loadouts would you guys recommend for getting the "beat Who-Knows-Where with 10 idols" achievements? I just cleared the Stranger's Dream, 5 idols, with Mortar (max blast radius, immunity to self-damage), Carbine (max firing speed, armor-piercing), and Mirror Shield.
Yeah.
That was pretty great.
Blueeyerat: Apparently, Calamity Cannon and Mortar, according to my sources.
Ehh... I'm not so sure. I tried the Cannon, but even with the tracking upgrade, the self-damage is too problematic, especially when enemies get all up in your grill. That, and I'd at least one weapon that can pierce armor (so I can deal with Stinkeyes, Wallflowers, and Lunkheads quickly). Bellows, upgraded pike or carbine, something like that.
I do love what Rucks has to say about the cannon/mortar combo, though.
Okay, beat all of the 10-idol challenges. Mortar and Bellows did the trick-- swapped blast radius for damage and reload speed; proceeded to wreck everything. Bellows worked for armored stuff, and to score some hits on enemies that got too close while the mortar was reloading. I also had Mirror Shield in case things went sour, but I don't think I used it much if at all.
