EASY Trick Weapon Collector trophy (DLC)

[dieselmanchild]

Thanks to a user in a Steam forum thread, I discovered this trophy is bugged in a good way!

 

The ‘Trick Weapon Collector’ requires you to collect all 10 of the permanent versions of the trick weapons (the versions you can keep and take from the dungeon), which are obtained by repeatedly farming the final boss in the 5th dungeon. However, the trophy is bugged in a good way and actually counts the temporary versions of the trick weapons which disappear when you either die or leave the dungeon.

 

This trophy would normally be quite grindy and one of the last trophies you would probably receive in the DLC, but using the following method it can actually be your 1st.

Between Dimensions

 

The Between Dimensions DLC introduces two things to the game - a 5th dungeon, and the addition of a new secret room in the 4 base game dungeons that adds an inter-dimensional pathway between floors.
 

When traversing any of the 4 base dungeons from the main game, there will be a guaranteed green sparkling blob in any one of the rooms with a pit. Jumping into the pit with the green sparkles will reveal a secret room with a green door, which leads you through a couple quick rooms of DLC enemies and then a mini-boss fight, and an exit portal will then lead you directly to the next floor of the dungeon. It basically functions as a shortcut that takes you to the next floor of the dungeon, as well as allowing you to obtain one of the temporary trick weapons for use in the base dungeons.

EASY method to obtain Trick Weapon Collector trophy

 

• Install the DLC, and continue your save file
• Go straight to the Golem dungeon, and rush through the 1st floor looking for the death pit with green sparkles (it is guaranteed that one room will have this)
• Drop into the pit and enter the green portal
• Move through the inter-dimensional pathway, and defeat the mini-boss at the end
• Claim your trick weapon from the green chest that appears
• Exit the portal and you will arrive on the 2nd floor of the Golem Dungeon
• Rush through the 2nd floor until you find the green sparkling pit once again
• Enter the portal, kill the mini-boss, loot another weapon from the chest
• Exit the portal and you will arrive on the 3rd floor of the Golem Dungeon
• Use your pendant to quickly exit the dungeon
• Enter the Golem Dungeon again and repeat the previous steps over again until you’ve received all 10 weapons

 

Some things to NOTE
 

- As they are not the permanent version of the weapons, the weapons you loot from the chest will disappear when you exit the dungeon. But don’t panic, thanks to the bug they are still counting towards the total, despite the fact they are not the permanent versions of the weapons!

 

- It is quite likely you will receive duplicates, so keep track of which weapons you obtain and which ones you still need. My first 8 trips produced 8 unique weapons, but after that it took me another 15-20 trips just to obtain the 2 weapons I was still missing.

 

- The trick weapons you need are as follows:

• Bone sword
• Morning Star
• Staff Spear
• Ghost Gloves
• Composite Bow
• Spore Sword
• Mechanic Big Sword
• Gas Spear
• Thief Gauntlet
• Explosive Bow

 

Of course, if you want to collect all the permanent versions of the trick weapons to keep for yourself, you will have to farm them the legitimate way. But doing it this way will save TONS of time! You can do this whenever you want, but I’d recommend doing it immediately when the DLC starts so you can get one of the toughest trophies it out of the way immediately.

 

Hope this helps someone out there. If you have any questions just ask. Enjoy! ?

Thanks for this @dieselmanchild - I just got done with the base game trophies so i'll give this a shot tonight! Hopefully it hasn't been fixed yet or they just decided it was a normal part of the game. I'll update here to let you know if it still works.

That would be great if you could provide an update as I haven’t played this game since I obtained the platinum. Good luck!

Can confirm that this is still possible. Thank you for the tip on that!

If someone will be looking for info, it's working fine in 2023 and beyond as game won't be updated anymore.
