Quink666 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Since replaying chapters put you back to whatever resources and upgrades you had on your first playthrough, i'm wondering do i need to focus on either sling or equipment first or are there enough resources to upgrade both before the end of the game?

Kymar17 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 If you dont spend them all on making ammo for other things you will have enough to upgrade both before the end of the game. I finished upgrading on chapter 16 because i crafted way to many things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anotherfangirl Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I’ve almost finished the game and I’m three leathers short from crafting the last upgrade. So you really shouldn’t craft too much ammunition while playing the game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janire1911 Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 There's definitely enough materials to upgrade both in a single playthrough but you have to thorough in your exploration and not waste resources unnecessarily on ammo crafting and alchemy upgrades.

Fr_0zt Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) I can confirm that you can, just make sure you don't waste to many resources on ammo. I got both on a single FULL playthrough and got the trophies (equipment and sling) on chapter 14 and 16 respectively with enough spare to get 3-4 upgrades on the alchemy.

Quink666 Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Since iv'e now gotten the plat i can also confirm for anyone wondering in the future. If you explore each level thoroughly and even backtrack on certain chapters where there is a split path, there is just enough enough to upgrade sling, equipment and even alchemy as long as you dont craft more Luminosa then are needed for the alchemist cart and never craft any Somnium after the tutorial.

Matrim_Drasgen Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Everyone talks about not crafting ammo but there is a trophy for crafting 100 ammunition for Alchemy. Can you do all three in a single playthrough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you will probably get the 100 ammo crafted trophy naturally so don't owrry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deluziion90 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Can confirm just finished both at the early stages of chapter 16. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkmslr Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I can also confirm you can get all of the sling, equipment and alchemy upgrades in one playthrough, whilst crafting a fuck load of ammo. Just be very thorough in your looting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can reload checkpoint to get the crafting trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check literally everywhere. I would tell you where, but spoilers. If you thoroughly search the castle in Ch. 15 before anything happens I found a bunch of leather and fabric there, too.

I got my Sling Upgrade in Chapter 10, my 100 Ammunitions in Chapter 12, and finally the Equipment Upgrade in Chapter 16. For ammo, I kept 3-4 of all simple ammo types on me in case I ran into a situation, only did the big explosion type when I needed to enter an Alchemist Cart. I believe I could have had the equipment upgraded sooner as I needed just two leathers for the longest time and I got the final one in Chapter 16 but once the game introduced Spoiler Avatar Ratbending I was done and just pushed through as fast I could to get the Platinum. So I didn't fully explore Chapters 14 or 15 and was no need to do any in Chapter 16 as all I needed was 1 leather. So not entirely sure when it would have been possible to pick up the Equipment trophy. Had I crafted a little less and struggled less with Spoiler Sir Nicolas Fire-Boss and/or used the checkpoint trick, definitely could have gotten the trophy sooner. I think what you upgrade first plays an important role as clearly expanding the number of resources you can carry at one time is important, probably the most important upgrades to maximize resources and not leave any behind. If I could not pick up a resource due to my limit, I would either upgrade or make some ammo so as not to waste any, even if it meant backtracking several minutes to a crafting bench. Upgrade to not need a bench is definitely a time saver and makes it easier so I push to get that one early too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how it works since I never used the feature but I imagine it would the easiest and hopefully the fastest way to collect your what you need to upgrade.

BlackTorito Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Can confirm, I upgraded everything, even Alchemy by the end of the game and still found a few more resources to spare through the last chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenShaka Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Great game, I could upgrade the ones required for the trophy in chapter hmm 13 I think, i got last Alchemy ingredient almost reaching final boss. You have enough resources, when i backtracked for collectibles I noticed that I missed some skins and rope. I used luminosa for the crafting carts and in one area in one of the last chapter when I trapped some rats and I couldn't find another way to pass than kill them.

MAUSZX Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) You'll have enough don't worry, if you find the alchemist cars you will do it faster, also if you upgrade the belt fully you get the trophy without needing every upgrade. Edit(my bad that was the equipment thing and not the sling) Edited October 18, 2019 by MAUSZX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitemares----- Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) For anyone else in the future, don't even bother doing Chapter Select if you're going for the slingshot upgrade, just start a new save file for that. Use Chapter Select for the collectibles you missed, once you use Chapter Select, it will not save or overwrite your latest progress in any way, it will still have the upgrades and materials from your first playthrough at that point. I always do a blind playthrough on a new game, cause what's the fun in looking at some guide and getting spoilers. When it's a game as good as this, I always do a second playthrough, even if it's not needed. I'll do my slingshot upgrades, which are the final 2 Trophies I need for the Platinum on my second go at it. EDIT: Decided just to edit my post since mine was the last comment. Just got the Platinum a bit ago with "Handfull of Pockets", at the beginning of Chapter XV, I also got in the same playthrough, "Not a Toy Anymore" in Chapter X. To upgrade the Slingshot and Pockets for enough materials, just always check every spot you can, there are tons of materials in certain Chapters, just don't make any Somnium, besides the tutorial where you have no choice, it's also OK to craft and use Luminosa to get to the Alchemist Carts, because you will always get the important supplies back and more. You can update the Alchemy if going for the Trophies, but I would only for the upgrades that doesn't use Leather and Fabric, because those are the important items for upgrading. I actually just now upgraded everything to max, Sling, Equipment & Alchemy in the middle of Chapter XVI.

IGUnique Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I actually used a bit of a cheesy way to get the upgrades done. I was sitting on a lot of resources but was saving to finish the sling first. At chapter 12 at the alchemist cart i finished the sling. I got the trophy but had to restart cause of lucas dieing. Then when i went back to the cart, I just used all the resource for the pocket upgrade. So if u allow the trophy to pop and then die and use the resource for the other upgrades u are sure to not missout on the trophies in 1 playtrough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
