I have passed level 1 a handful of times, and have yet to pass level 2. Just looking to gague how long it will take me to get to level 3. - Thanks

There are 5 base levels 2 secret ones and an unlockable 6th floor by beating the game with the 4 base charactors.

in maybe 5-6 hrs you will most likely reach lvl 3. its not that hard really as gorgun is a pushover. reaching lvl 5 may take upwards of 15 hrs. Secret levels are ~lvl 4 difficutty for first one and ~3-4 for the second but the boss of second secret level is a ♥♥♥♥♥ >_<

the one boss that sits in a throne keeps beating the crap out of me. i guess i will just have to hope on an OP gun to get past him. he spawns on Lv2 a lot for me

[Zeks]

throne boss is lvl 1 only, you cant encounter him at level 2 unless it's a second secret level you mean

you are probably right, i got murdered by it so much i probbaly though it was why i couldnt get past 2.

Getting to the second secret level means you have to get through the whole second floor without getting hit to deliver an object from the first secret floor you most likely need a key for.

Try to save your two blanks for the boss fight; its tempting to use them if you're in a mess, but its better to take a hit in the level and then blank the boss. If you manage to kill a boss without taking a hit, he drops a master round that gives you an extra heart!

Past that, I suggest the Marine and the Hunter as good starting characters. The marine's ammo drop lets you blaze up and refill (once) and the huntress's crossbow is actually a really decent weapon.

And when you get to the boss of floor 2, pray to Kaliber that you don't get the Ammoconda. I've got 40 hours in the game, and the Ammoconda on floor 2 is still my most hated.
