LVL 25 Incendiary Grenade
Is this even possible? The IG is such a bad weapon. Leveling it up leaves you in a really bad spot since its so bad at effectively killing enemies. It cant clear any waves, you cant controll where it hits and the overclocks suck. literally the worst weapon in the game.

It is possible with the Strong Armed Driller.

It's possible, the tricky part is actually getting the weapon in your choices. When I went for that I basically just died and restarted if I couldn't get it in my level 5 weapon choice.

I did it with the Heavy Gunner. Ended up with level 23 thunderhead and level 28 Incendiary Grenade. When i felt weak i put levels in thunderhead but i tried to keep my grenade up as well just not to end up to short. Turns out i had plenty of time to spare, Grenade was 25 before I ended Stage 4.

I do not recommend trying to greed it and put all points in grenade, like you say it is to unreliable. So take your time and do all the stages and level up both your main weapon and the grenade. Its probably possible with other classes as well but i just find thunderhead to be an easiest carry weapon pick.

And yes like SeraphSword says, restart if you do not get the Grenade on level 5. Its fast its easy. Grab some gold at the start to reroll to reduce the numbers of restarts.

I always take the 'split into 3' overclock and usually end up with IG being my highest DPS weapon. It's just not all-around weapon. You either need buffs for throwables or for status effects in your build/character.

this. I always used to take the "bigger explosion" but when I went split into 3, it worked better.

I should also note when I got the incendiary to 25 there was no way I was actually going to complete the level. just held out long enough to get it to 25.

The "Level 25" tasks are also one of the times when it's best to use the Paint Job upgrades, jumping 2 or 3 levels without any other bonus.

Also salvage the overlocks so you get an extra level instead of an ability that doesnt rank it up.

I was trying to do it with using the Endless glitch, but 3 times in a row, twice at level 24, it was causing so much VFX on screen it would crash the game. Finally I was so disgusted I stopped playing the game as a whole until they fix it.

Salvaging balanced overclocks at 6 or 12 guarantees an epic. Salvaging an unstable overclock at 18 guarantees a legendary.

I actually did not know this O.o and I did it without it. COuld heave been much easier, but it was simple enough either way.

Cheers!
