Bored of dying for Gunslinger
I've been playing for the past 2 weeks to try and get Gunslinger but every time I get to bullet hell as him there are just ♥♥♥♥ tons of jammed enemies spawning and I can't handle it with the items I'm getting. I've tried a ♥♥♥♥ ton of times in both normal runs and rainbow runs but nothing is helping. At this point I'm not really looking for tips any more I just want a way to cheat in the Gunslinger because the RNG in game has just been so arse that its making me not want to play the game anymore which is just painful because I used to really enjoy it but because it's obviously not gonna be getting anymore developer updates (even though it had the potential to be as good as Binding of Isaac) due to the whole "it's been abandoned by the developer's". So, anyone know how to cheat it in? Whether it be via downloading a fully completed save file to my folder or just changing some things in the game files I'm not that fussed. Just kinda tired of an annoying grind for such a ludicrously large barrier in front of the Gunslinger.

I'd say just take a break for a bit, then come back to it. If you cheat it, it's just going to cheapen it. Just take a small break and come back another time, that's the best advice I can give you.

Well, on the other hand, he seems to be more interested in PLAYING with the Gunlinger than in the rewarding feeling of unlocking him. I don't really like teaching how to cheat in games, but in this case I don't see any harm in telling him how to do it (and he seems to have already given up on unlocking it in the "honest" way, anyway).

@BigJuicy, I can teach you a (boring, but effective) way that I know of cheating to unlock the Gunslinger. If you want to know how, I can send you a message explaining you how.

That would be greatly appreciated, I might have a couple last tries today but if I can't do it then it would be very helpful of you to show me how.

Just git gud. RNG plays a smaller factor in a W than you think. Of course, the game can just decide to hand you a run on a sliver platter, but it comes down to your personal skill more than anything else. Just off of the start with any character, you already have been handed the keys to victory. It all comes down to if you have the skill to pull it off or not.

As for unlocking the Gunslinger himself, you say that you are having trouble in bullet hell and have too many jammed enemies spawning? That's all on you building up more curse than you can handle before heading into the hardest floor in the game. Of course, there a A FEW rooms with certain enemies that always spawn jammed, but those rooms aren't as common and. quite frankly, some of the easiest rooms in bullet hell. Play other characters and do runs with the sole goal of getting to bullet hell so you can practice fighting through the many, many different rooms and difficult enemies it throws your way.

I was going to support you until i read "it had the potential to be as good as Binding of Isaac" lol git gud

You could simply quit if you're not enjoying the game. I don't mean that in a mean way. Just it might not be for you. There are plenty of games I've dropped because the frustration was outweighing my fun.

Fair enough I guess, I decided I'll probs just take a break from trying to get gunslinger, and I don't think I'm that trash at the game to call the 'git gud' card, but each to their own. You may or may not see this as I'll probs delete this post within a day or two since it's served its purpose

As he said, if you're being bombarded by Jammed enemies, it's because you're going through the Gungeon with oodles of Curse. Try to avoid it if you can. It makes runs more difficult, but also gives FAR more shells.
It's great to do Rat Runs with because the shell bonus means EZ Rat Key.

Yeh, i mean, if you are consistently hitting Bullet Hell then you're probably fairly decent. But obviously as has already been mentioned, jammed enemies means you;re getting too much curse. Jammed enemies make life difficult for anyone. Personally I'd just avoid building up curse, the trade off in this case does not seem worth it.

The simplest way to cheat EtG is downloading and using a program called "Enter the Gungeon Trainer".

funny because i killed the liche in my second try with the gunslinger thanks to the overpowered synergys of the cactus gun LOL

if you really want to cheat the mod support gives you console commands and you can give yourself items

RNG has almost zero effect on your gameplay or how well you can perform. It may have more impact in other games, but not in this one. I would say try to better your attitude instead of trying to find ways to cheat.

I was like you once, so i know. Trust me.

Yeah I was just going to post a thread about when it's time to stop playing the game for the day lmao and then I saw this thread.

Once you do so many runs OP you're just gonna be burnt out and not at full potential. I've been trying so hard grinding to complete the Beholster's Shrine, Find a Legit Rainbow Chest, Find a Glitch Chest, getting all six rat keys from Punchout and getting Rubenstein's Monster. I've already gotten the Finished Gun so that's like my Gungeon bucketlist if you will.

I find that after two full 10 floor runs my potential gets weaker and I start making a lot more mistakes. I typically just end up rage quitting because I can typically pull off every master chamber and barely take damage the entire run every time I run the Gungeon but on redundant playthroughs I'll make the biggest noob mistakes ever as time goes on. I also RQ all the time if I take no damage throughout the entire run until I get the mf'in antique shield and take some BS hit removing access to an entire floor which I desperately need to try and complete my Bucketlist (since shrines can spawn in the 2nd secret floor as well as just a whole extra floor of loot).

Trust me I've poured a lot of time in this game and sometimes I pull off some crazy stuff when it comes to dodging seemingly impossible scenarios.

Give it two big tries (or one I guess since trying to unlock slinger is 2 runs). If you don't make it don't beat yourself up over it just reflect on what you could've done better.

EDIT: I can't tell you how many times I've been tempted to mod/cheat out the Punchout section of the fight with the Resourceful Rat. So many times I ace the boss only to suffer through some archaic copy pasta fighting game from some bygone era and never have beaten the final phase of the Punchout. Yet still I persist in suffering the Punchout after every failed attempt.
