Basic Guide to Atomine

This my first guide to a game, and am open to feedback on improving it. This guide will consist of information on major unlockables(ie; characters), and some basic achievements. I must reiterate that I am not, nor have I ever been, an employee of Broken Arms Games, and as such do not know the ins and out of the game.

Bosses

1st Boss: The Guardian

Achievement: "A Good Start"

For this fight, I highly recommend range-ups(Lifetime), as you do not want to be near this boss when it enters berserk mode. Once in berserk mode, it will begin firing in all directions, and its fire rate will increase as its health gets lower.
The Piercing Attribute module also helps, as it will bypass the boss' rotating shield.

Its attacks consist of;
- basic projectile attack(2.0/1.0 dmg per)
- 4-way laser(1.0/0.5 dmg per)
- spawn seeker(1.0 dmg per)
- bullet frenzy(2.0/1.0 dmg per)

2nd Boss: The Hydra

Achievement: "Was that a Hydra!?"

I recommend stacking Damage and Ratio bonuses for this fight, so you can dispatch each head as quickly as possible. Prioritize killing the bottom head during the third phase, since it is the hardest to predict.
You may want to use the Missile for this fight if you have it.

Its attacks consist of;
- Bullet Breath(2.0/1.0 dmg per): 'breaths' a wave of bullets in a sweeping motion
- Electrolaser(0.5/0.25 dmg per)
- spawn elite patroller(2.0/1.0 dmg per)
- Rest: a head will rest briefly, giving you an opportunity to kill it

3rd Boss: The Rook

Achievement: "Check Mate"

Hope you stacked up on hp-ups, because there is no way you are leaving this battle unscathed.
Like the Hydra, each boss phase adds a new 'head', but even worse. While all of the Rooks able to attack you, only one of them is killable.
Range is invaluable in this fight, particularly in the final phase, because you do not want to have to be anywhere but the edge of the arena to hit the boss.
Again, I recommend the Missile.

It's attacks consist of;
- "Bullets, Bullets Everywhere"(2.0/1.0 dmg per): this boss is just constantly spewing out bullets.
- spawn seeker(1.0 dmg per)
- "You Activated my Trap Card"(1.0/0.5 dmg per): trap tiles will spawn after each phase.

4th Boss

Achievement: "System Breached"

bro.the campaign does not open this abilka in any way. No matter how many times I asked the developers, no matter how many times I tried this game, I didn't get an answer. My opinion is that the developers themselves do not even know how to open it and say that they need to somehow buy it for bitcoin in-game. The only point is that it can't be done.

[Make Something Useless]

how to open Piercing bullet?

[Alex17by]

how to open Piercing Bullet?

[Ynf]

The very last one is just a 'random' option I believe.

[VADER97]

I have unlocked 1.0/1.2b/1.5/1.7/2.0/2.5/2.7/3.0/3.11 and how I can get last one?

[自由自在7YY]

[Ynf]

Does anyone know how to get the achievements ''where is the front'' and ''storm''?

[Ynf]

I unlocked V3.11 by completing a run with 1.5 1.0 and 1.7
not sure which are relevant and which are not. also there is one more character that i have no idea how to unlock.

[Bear with me]

no for 3.11 you don´t need finish with ALL ATOMINE just the 1.5

[Aeternalis the Abyssal Alchemist]

@Zelwen
Thanks for the info! Not sure if I'll be able to unlock V3.11...
In terms of difficulty(from least to greatest): V1.7, V2.0, V2.7, V1.2, V1.0, V2.5, V3.0.
The farthest I've gotten with V3.0 is the stage after the first boss. V2.5 is just a challenge because the laser is too weak for its own good.
V1.5 seems achievable though.
