MattyBoy5D Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Discovered this while playing the past few days. You should really only use this if you're truly strapped for cash, otherwise you'll be bored to tears (unless of course you can program you controller with macros or something). This requires you to have the Nuke upgrade for your ship. Load up the Thug Rendezvous / Feltzin System and go to challenge 3 (destroy the ace fighters). Now just shoot your nuke. No need to aim anywhere. No need to move. Just shoot. Boom, challenge complete! This takes about 7 seconds each time, and the challenge rewards 7000 bolts on each completion (after you've beaten it the first few times where it's worth more). That boils down to 1000 bolts per second, and 1 million every 16~17 minutes. Is this method fun? No. Is it efficient? Yes! So if you're just a few bolts shy of a new weapon, or don't mind doing a little grinding while watching tv or listening to music or whatever, then have at it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielVT Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Good tip! I can't wait to get to Going Commando. I am still in my 4th playthrough of #1! I am grinding for the 1,000,000 bolt trophy which will earn me the plat. The thing that sucks is that I accidentally overwote one of my playthroughs, so I am technically on my 5th playthrough. As a die-hard R&C fan, it has been fun, but it is beginning to get boring to be honest. Anyway, I will be sure to use this tip so..... thanks!!!

Lady Lilith Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Great tip for when I get around to playing Going Commando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehCro Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) Yeah.....This challenge isn't worth 7000 bolts each. It's first one is 6500 and the rewards just get way smaller after that. EDIT: Nevermind. I forgot challenge mode multiplies challenge arena rewards by 10. Edited September 14, 2012 by TehCro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyBoy5D Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Oops, forgot to mention that, thought I did Only worth it in challenge mode. Then again, that's the only time you really need loads of bolts for upgraded weapons anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first when I saw your post I got excited thinking it was for RC1 and not RC2............ah well grind away I shall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't even have to be at your PS3 to do it, just leave it on overnight. It is much slower though (10~20 bolts/sec).

Now that I am on my fifth and final playthrough I might as well just finish it that way. However, in the future, hopefully that tip helps others. Thanks for your thoughtfulness.

Venocide Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) The bolt glitch came in handy in ratchet and clank, didn't feel like playing the game multiple times. And thanks for the tip! Edited July 2, 2013 by ARKphoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
