Favorite weapon combinations

[Laid]

I think it would be cool if everybody shared there favorite weapon combinations on the forum for fun.

My Favorites

The Whip

The Hookshot

The Sticky Bomb

The Kamikaze Magic

I like the whip because of it's range and speed.

I like the hookshot for skipping areas.

I like the sticky bomb for it's precision.

I like the kamikaze magic for hiting all enemies on screen.

What are YOUR favorites.

[Smiley Trashbag]

Whip, for the same reasons.

Gun, because instant hits are pretty neat.

Dynamite, because skipping traps is also pretty neat.

And Fire Magic, because I don't know.

I don't have the DLC, or all the wapons even, so this may change.

[Ladybunne]

Scythe, Boomerang+, Bomb+ and Wind. That's my basic speedrun set.
Honorable mention to Whip (RIP, you were my favourite before DLC).

[Zekvich]

Sword+ because it is quick and deadly though I am now learning the scythe

Pistol for fast boss kills and a easy time on arbarghus.

Sticky bomb so i blow myself up less when i use bombs XD

fire magic since it seems to hit everything on screen for me


I did go through a stage of using the weapon that breaks traps but whenever I really needed to break them I usually was going to land on them from above anyway.

Make sure to keep a special place in your heart for the whip.

My favorite combination is Random.

[MorbidMette]

I always go back to Sword+ Boomerang+ Remote Bombs and Wind magic. I have tried other weapons, but I don't ever really stick with anything else.

[Psycho Crystal Pepsi]

I use
Light saber: for removing the bodies of spikey enemies
Gun: instant and fast use and easy to spam
Dynamite: so I can skip parts of the map
Magic: none, because I play as the one armed ninja

[Uxor Secundus Lillith]

My favorite weapons are the Whip or the Bat. Whip because it allows me to manipulate powerups that are in spikes. That and the reach!. Bat because it borders on OP, in it killing everything below minibosses in one hit and it smashing spikes.

Subweapons? Spear. It decapitates, is reusable and it never vanishes. When paired with the Unlimited Ammo powerup, you can spam spears until the powerup wears off

Bombs? Shrapnel bombs, mostly because Torment (I think that's the one whose sole attack is charging you back and forth.) The laser tripwire is fairly good, although it does have a tendency to decide to limit how far the wire goes just before it goes off.

Magic? Fire or Lightning. I'm still wary of using anything that takes off a life and the Wnd magic has a habit of hitting the walls before it ever could hit anything useful

[Moldy Towel]

Depends on what I'm doing. On hard mode runs through the Ziggurat, Abarghus' Domain, or TDL, I bring the lightsaber, advanced shrapnel bomb, hookshot and fire magic. The hookshot is a godsend for zipping through rooms filled with traps or just annoying physical obstacles and enemies.

On boss runs and ninja mode, I use wind magic and either the morning star or the whip, though I'm trying to get into the groove with the scythe.

The fact that the bat is slow and doesn't prevent red skeletons, porcupines, and mushrooms from having effects after death doesn't bother you?

I don't like the bat myself, but I'm glad that some players find it of use!

So what's your favorite, then?
EDIT: these days, I run on Ninja mode with the upgraded nunchuks. Fun as all hell.

[MulletBeyond]

Love the Nunchucks too, let's you get the drop on Skeletons, monkeys, etc, deal with magic traps and the like better. Gun or Boomarang for that second slot.

[Rhinkalis]

Sign me up for the "Whip has nice range and instant connection" favoritism (no DLC so I don't know about any of this Scythe stuff).

I tend to like Boomerang+ for my ranged weapon slot, as it has some nice utility against certain bosses, and, you know, infinite uses.

I tend to use the Shrapnel bombs because I find them the most useful for removing traps and stuff, because their shards still count as bomb hits for clearing stuff, but not for killing you, and I appreciate that in a weapon.

Annd... I think I use Fire Magic? Though to be honest I don't pay that much attention to my magic generally.
