Secrets of the Gungeon - Explaining the Secret Hidden Unlockables of EtG

The holy dragunfire is actually worse then the normal dragunfire as it’s stats were based on dragunfire’s pre-buff stats. After dragunfire’s buff the high dragunfire is just obsolete

[@JeuelyFish]

whoa, really? That's a great historical etg fact! Thanks for that detail, looking at the wiki now and it turns out the high-dragunfire DPS is 42.5 while the normal dragunfire is (as you point out) better with 43.3 . This is cool... but makes me a little sad to learn lol

[@GigaGligga]

@@JeuelyFish yea, when I found out I was severely disappointed

[@themountaingodgrugle8265]

Did the Dragunfire get buffed to ignore the boss damage cap like the Holy Dragunfire? If so, that's pretty nuts and really makes the Holy version obsolete

[@mustardsouls1005]

@@themountaingodgrugle8265 pretty sure high dragonfires can't go past the dps cap, but the regular dragonfife definitely doesn't

[@pablolacerda1331]

@@mustardsouls1005 it really doesn't matter that much, since the dps cap is only broken at floor 1 and 1.5, in the gungeon propper and in the abbey the dps cap is 42 and in subsequent floors it's over 60, so you need at least a 50% damage boost on all shots, wich is rare for gungeon, and combos that need several itens aren't really reliable, so you need a rare gun, various damage increase bonuses, and you need to get them by floor 3, the easiest way would be spice, but it still difficult and you would have to deal with the accuracy loss, wich can be remedied by another rare item, helix bullets

[@nathanlindsey643]

Pro tip: if you choose to unlock the serpent in the rats lair and have defeated the rat in the punch out game, you can feed the rats body to the serpent instead of 4 items and still get the same effect.

[@carterwilliams7106]

You can also unlock the serpent using only 1 key by opening the first gate and throwing items up through the second gate by standing directly next to the second gate. You will have to aim up for the items to go in the right direction towards the serpent

[@jmc_1178]

Rat body only counts as one item, you still have to feed 3 more. I tend to use glass guons.

After reading all the comments there’s a few noteworthy secrets I haven’t seen be mentioned yet. - Having the sponge item while speaking to Professor Goopton makes his text readable - Speaking to Tonic with 5000+ credits will have him extort 90% of them to buy a “new coat”. When you return he will have a yellow coat of fur and become Super Tonic! Which has no real benefit outside of looking cooler - Approaching the Sell Creep as the bullet will cause him to cringe as he is canonical Agunim from the bullet’s past. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think having the paradox take the shape of the bullet also triggers this. - Relating to the black market demon door, there’s a small chance the door will change to a shocked expression with large eyes while entering. (I thought it was related to co op but according to the wiki that’s not the case) - There’s a hidden boss called the Door Lord who has a 1.333% chance to replace any boss on floors 2, 3, or 4. He’s a mimic version of the boss skull door and can provide a pretty tough challenge if you don’t know what to expect. If you’re having trouble finding him he’ll always spawn on floor 3 of boss rush as the final room. - If you speak to Patches and Mendy as the robot, since he cannot be healed they will either give you junk, a piece of armor, or the bottle item alongside some unique dialogue. - Killing the bullet king but not his advisor will cause him to appear scheming with the beholster if you get him as your floor 2 boss, or alternatively the Blobulord if you go to the oubliette. Also a few little nitpicky corrections: battery bullets buff accuracy not dmg, once unlocking Junkan he can spawn as a 1% drop chance but will also be added to the C tier (blue chest) loot pool. Overall a great video man, I’ve 100%ed this game and put hundreds of hours of my life into it and I didn’t even know some of these. (Like who tf thought to shoot the black market door with water?!?) If you made it this far into my nerd ramblings I just wanna say keep up the great work man, and hope ya have a good day :>

[@JeuelyFish]

For some reason YT didn't let me see your comment till later? But holy cow! Your comment is *gold*, so many good secrets mentioned, some of the best "nerd ramblings" I've read haha Will def have to look into and try some of these, the yellow/golden Tonic coat thing in particular is a "TIL" moment for me, well done 👏👏👏👏

[@volcanic9120]

Having the yellow chamber is what causes the black market door to look at you.

[@Sans9]

Fun fact: if you somehow keep the bullet king advisor alive you can bring him to the next floor up until the dragun

[@moiracollum9391]

I actually once randomly got the door lord in a run, I was on a rainbow run though I think and I beat him before he could hit me

[@coobk]

also as soon as you entered the oubliette once there will always spawn a water barrel in the fireplace room

[@SUPERmunkkii]

Walking instead of taking the mine cart to the Rat Lair is actually faster, as the mine cart teleports you backwards as you ride it (try firing some bullets forwards and you’ll see that they sudden jump away from you) The rail is actually much shorter than it seems.

[@JeuelyFish]

Apologies if you have covered it but, I think you missed the "eyeball room". There is an entry about it in the Fandom Wiki if I recall correctly. You can teleport inside it randomly when using the teleporting prototype item or whatever it's called. It's a dark room with a hole in the middle that eerily resembles an eye.

[@JeuelyFish]

Nope, totally slipped my mind while making this video about the eyeball room! I just *knew* something was going to slip thru the cracks, haha appreciate you calling that out tho!

[@KINGOFTHESPARKS755]

The eyeball room is by far the rarest event in the gungeon. Oddly, entering it actually unlocks the yellow chamber instantly if you don't already have it, implying that the eyeball might actually responsible for the confirmed

[@samgomez9942]

Holy cow I forgot about that, I've 100% the game almost 3 times now and have only been there once

[@Darmouthable]

The boss "Agunim" is a pun on the "Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past" boss "Agahnim." The names are pronounced very similarly, the visuals and lore of the character call him an "evil wizard" and "the right hand man of Cannon" and it can't get much more obvious than that :)

[@2011supergamer]

Yeah, its the same character as phase 1 of The Bullet's past fight, which is a direct callback to the Agahnim fight in LTTP

One other secret in this game is rainbow chests. Sure there are rainbow runs but rainbow chests outside of rainbow runs act very different. For 1. You get everything item in the chest instead of just one And second, they can disguise themselves as brown chests.

[@ameliajales5307]

That’s not so much a secret as it is a rare occurrence, plus natural rainbow chests in rainbow runs (not the one at the start of every floor) allow you to take all 8 items.

You can actually see if it is a rainbow chest by shooting water on it. And if I am not wrong, they have a 0.03% chance of spawning. And there is a bug where you can make a "black rainbow chest"

[@sirjiggle5908]

Ah, I remember being addicted to this game last summer and getting 100% on it (finished gun) and clocking in 200+ hours on the game. The only things I didn’t get/see were the High Dragunfire and Old Man NPC. On a side note, there are a few things not brought up in this video that I would like to shed some light on. 1. Using the teleported prototype item has a small chance to teleport you to an eyeball room, which is exactly as it sounds. A dark room with a massive eyeball in the center that follows you. 2. Ser Manuel can be rarely found in secret rooms in a “Monster Manuel” persona, which is Ser Manuel but in an owl costume. He will give the player a random item/gun. (Note he can only spawn after you killed Blockner.) 3. Minibosses, these being enemies that are on par with bosses but do not spawn in a boss room at all, rather their own room that is generated differently based on the miniboss inhabiting it. The three minibosses I know of are the Shadow Magician, Fuselier, and Blockner (Ghost version, this one can only spawn after you’ve already killed him). 4. Door Lord boss! Surprised this wasn’t covered in this video, but its just like a normal boss that randomly replaces a normal boss in its room on the Gungeon Proper, Black Powder Mine, or Hollow. It even has a special animation showing the Door Lord freeing itself from the boss room entry door and coming into the arena. Pretty cool. (This boss also shows up in the boss rush.) 5. Wall Mimics. Exactly as they sound, mimics that are walls. Pretty rare chance of spawning and even rarer that you actually find it because you have to, A. Shoot the wall the mimic is residing in or, B. Run against the wall the mimic is in. It will free itself from the wall leaving a gaping whole then attack the player and it has its own attacks as well. 6. Gripmaster. The gripmaster enemy has a low chance of pulling out a pistol and attacking in all directions upon being killed, it will then need to be killed like a normal enemy. Well, that’s all I remember and wanted to bring up here. I wouldn’t be surprised if we both missed a few secrets here and there, this game is just so amazing and detailed man.

[@JeuelyFish]

... 0_0 🤯 wow, Sir Jiggle, this is impressive and comprehensive! Thanks for listing these out! I knew about all of these (with the exception of Ser Monster Manuel), but I'll admit that they slipped my mind or I was having a hard time collecting footage of them. Really, I'm kicking myself tho for not remembering the DoorLord Boss since he woulda fit perfectly in a section. Oh well... maybe I'll have to make a "part 2" some day..? lol, so many secrets to document. Thanks for your call outs and attention to detail tho, I *really* really appreciate it!

[@sirjiggle5908]

@@JeuelyFish ​ I can’t blame you for forgetting/not being able to find footage for some of these, all of these have a really low chance of spawning aside from minibosses which are fairly common… and no problem bro glad to pass some knowledge on from one gungeoneer to another. OH, and two more things I need to mention. So if you have rainbow mode enabled, bowler won’t let you have any item/gun drops or chests, right? Well… that is the case, EXCEPT if you happen to be lucky enough to find a rainbow chest in the wild! He won’t be sitting on top of it and you’re free to open it. That’s not the cool part though, what’s interesting is that rainbow chests have a chance of appearing as a low quality brown chest. Normally, bowler would just sit on it and prevent you from taking the rewards. HOWEVER, if it just so happens that you’re lucky enough to find a rainbow chest that’s disguised whilst in rainbow mode, bowler will not be on top of the brown chest, giving it away that it’s a rainbow. Additionally, there is a chance that bowler has a special chest-topping animation aside from his normal sitting one. I’ve only seen it once so I imagine it’s pretty rare as well. The chest and himself will be engulfed in flames while bowler is floating above the chest with a massive grin. My man really hates everything that isn’t rainbow, goddamn xD

[@sirjiggle5908]

Oh also another quick thing, I know you said that the rats maze pattern is different for everybody, and while that is the case for PC version, it’s not for switch. (It may also be the same for PS4 and Xbox but don’t quote me on that.) I forget the pattern cause I haven’t played in so long lol- but I do know this is true

Minor correction for 1:29; There is ALWAYS a water barrel. If you can't find it, it's because you or an enemy shot it and it just turned into a pile of water. Be on the lookout for it before you find the fireplace room and avoid letting enemies fire at it so you can use it later.

Saying what you said makes no sense when i'm telling people that yeah, it's in another room, unless it's not and then you know it got blown up...

Not sure if this has been mentioned but if you destroy brother Alberns chest it will always drop the junk item called "lies", which has a synergy with the gun "Betrayers Shield" making the gun gain infinite ammo, a much larger magazine size, increased accuracy, and extremely high fire rate. This is a great thing to remember because like you mentioned The Abby of the True Gun will always have one of its secret rooms with Brother Albern. So if you get The Betrayers Shield on the first floor or the Oubliette it might be a good idea to try to get to The Abby

[@FabioEnchilada]

I'm a bit late, but here's a few things I haven't seen anyone mention: While looking at the map, the Yellow Chamber's chambers may blink, and it may also melt away to reveal an eye. (The Yellow chamber is an S tier passive item that gives 2 heart containers, 2 curse, +15% fire rate, and charms an enemy when entering a room). The path through the Resourceful Rat's lair is different per system, but the same between save files. However, on the Nintendo Switch the path is always the same, regardless of system. (The path is always down, right, down, up, down, up). If you have the Mimic Tooth Necklace, the rat chests at the end of the Resourceful Rat's Lair won't all be mimics. Instead a googly-eyed Union Mimic Chest will be there to explain the situation. (The Mimic Tooth Necklace is an A tier passive item that turns all chests and item pedestals into mimics). The damage bonus The Robot gets from junk also works with lies and gold junk. You will keep the damage bonus even if you drop your junk. Synergy chests can also be rainbow chests. The chest will drop 8 items that may or may not synergize with your inventory. There is no way to tell if a synergy chest is also a rainbow chest until it is opened. The Galactic Medal of Valor is brought with you when you enter a character's past. If brought into the Marine's, you get the "Decorated" synergy, making it the only synergy that can be made in a past. (The galactic Medal of Valor is a B tier passive item that increases damage by 30% to bosses, halves reload time, and halves shot spread). The Directional Pad has two motion input special attacks: Left, left, fire - shoots a hook which can be used to steal or quickly relocate. Down, right, fire - shoots a fireball that deals high damage. The Muncher has recipes. Here are some vague examples: A normal revolver + an ice weapon = Cold 45. Any crossbow + a magic weapon = Crescent Crossbow. Either "hand" weapon + a normal machine gun = Machine Fist. Any hand/fist weapon + a poison weapon = Mutation. Bee Hive + R.P.G. = Stinger. The Flame Hand varies in damage from ~4.8 to ~18.6, and the probability of the different damage values follows a bell curve. When playing as The Bullet, the gun deals 1 less damage, but when playing as The Robot, the gun deals 1 more damage. You can look away to avoid The Gorgun's stone gaze attack. Brown chests are the best.

[@marioismagic]

Fun fact!!! Daisuke is the only challenge npc that you don’t need to beat the game to unlock

[@BrisingrFan55]

Potentially helpful for people trying to reach the Abbey of the True Gun (2nd secret floor): Not all rooms are equally likely to have the altar room adjacent to them. The altar room is very likely to spawn next to "special" rooms, such as treasure rooms, shops, and rooms with other npc's next to them. If you see an NPC icon on the map or a blocked off path indicating a chest room, try going in that direction first to increase your chances of finding the altar room early.

[@fib900]

Something you forgot to mention, which isn’t surprising because it’s so rare to happen in the first place, deals with Bowler. If you manage to find a legit Rainbow chest none of the items are taken away and you’re able to grab all the items from it. To date I have only seen this happen once when a friend played.

[@Flygoniaks]

One thing you forgot to mention about the Finished Gun - since it permanently replaces the Unfinished Gun once unlocked, this means that it _spawns_ in any scenario where the Unfinished Gun would. In other words, any time the game would spawn a "D-tier" gun, such as from ordinary brown chests, there's a chance it will be the Finished Gun, an "S-tier" weapon internally.

[@FadeScratch]

There's a secret synergy with the battle cog and clobbe. Once you do the active reloading on clobbe, the next clip will be perfect, dealing a lot of damage and firing in a straight line.

[@loganthegriefer]

a few extra things I thought might be important: the cell creep gives you casings based off the tier of the item you gave him a cell creep will always spawn on the 4th floor if you have at least one master round the resourceful indeed syngery is purely cosmetic which means that you can sell the elimentaler, an S tier gun, on the 4th floor for huge profit you get keys from the rat fight under specific conditions: a key for starting the fight, a key for ending the fight successfully, a key per phase ended with a super punch, and an extra key if you finish every phase with a 3 star super punch fighting the resourceful rat in rainbow mode will deny you from opening the rat chests but you do get to keep any items dropped from the rat during his punch out phase

My biggest criticism of this game remains how much it wasted it's own potential in some ways. Most of us butted our heads up against the wall a fair amount until the game clicked and I had a blast going around trying to access the hidden content in the game. But everyone I know that tried to play the game just gave up because of how frustrating the barrier to entry was for them, which I can fully understand. That combined with how the game expects you to spend hours looking things up on the wiki just to then go and attempt to access content tucked away in runs always leaves a sour mark on my affection for the game. It's a great game, with even more going for it than most people know, but those people will never know because it kept that content unnecessarily obscured or just too difficult for the average player to get near

A couple tips about rainbow mode: It's *always* worth doing the secret floors, since every secret floor is a new rainbow chest to choose from. Additionally, it's worth challenging the Resourceful Rat in this mode. While you don't get anything from the cheese chests, you DO get to keep any items he drops while you beat him up in phase 3. This can easily double your total items for the run. And if you see clone, grab it. Best item in the game hands down.

[@cononsberg6919]

Just some other stuff I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned yet: -The Resourceful Rat and Payday items aren't the only items that can change your character appearance, having the full Gunknight Armour item set also does this. -Ser Manuel can appear in secret rooms as "Monster Manuel", gifting the player a random item. ...and I forget the rest. Ah well

[@Awesomeness-iz3dh]

5:51 Worth noting that it's actually faster to walk along the track. The room will loop on itself several times over if you're riding in the minecart, which actually makes it take longer to reach the end that way than by just walking it.

I'm pretty sure the black market troll face is meant to be a reference to the infamous demon face from the Dungeons and Dragons adventure "Tomb of Horrors". This adventure was a giant murderous escape room that would quickly kill players unless they knew what they were doing. The demon face is the most recognizable trap from the Tomb of Horrors. Players who entered its big open mouth would find themselves in a sphere of annihilation, which is _exactly_ what it sounds like.

You can also use the Gunknight's Gauntlet on a red balloon to achieve the same effect which I found on total accident, it switches to become a replacement arm the next floor though.

The Windgunner is a reference to the Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson. Sprun is a play on "Spren" and Windgunner plays on "Windrunner". It's related to a bit of a secret in the books, so I won't explain fully, but the mechanics of Sprun are related to the series!

[@S1lverMeer]

something I noticed, as an avid D&D fan, is that the door to the black market resembles the Talisman of the Sphere, a magic item you can get

[@darkawesome2002]

A note about rainbow mode: the items that drop from the punch-out portion of the rat fight can be picked up as normal. This can easily double the number of items you get in a rainbow run, so it's definitely worth doing. Additional, you can still correct the junk from destroying chests, which can have some niche uses.

[@Agricarnation]

Everyone talks about the eyeball room from the teleporter, but I refuse to ever use that item again after it trapped me in a chest room next to an active room. Luckily, it was a blessed run and I spent about 10-15 minutes emptying guns to get one to hit enemies through a wall... The Charged Gun.

[@jeffypeters333]

This is one of my favourite games of all time! It's the perfect game to switch on and play a round or two whenever your bored (or at least that's how it is after eventually beating it enough times and finding all its secrets) but it is 100% one of the most replayable randomized games of all time! I loved your video but one little thing you forgot about the NPC Tonic, if you eventually collect I THINK something like 6666 Credits and give them to Tonic, he'll turn into Super Tonic changing his color from blue to yellow lol but as far as i know it has no further effect on the game itself! Loved the video though, I can always appreciate videos about Enter the Gungeon!

[@inoob26]

Some minor details about the Resourceful Rat Lair 1) you need to first build the Bullet that can Kill the Past for the Gnawed Key to spawn 2) for some unknown reason walking instead of riding the mine cart inside the trapdoor gets you to the end much faster, also as if the tunnel is artificially longer while riding it

thanks for this video! never made it past floor 3 but knew this game had to have fantastic secrets! You inspired me to pick it back up and give it a go

[@mugenmarshal01]

11:39 Agunim refers to Agahnim, it's a Zelda reference and the boss is a reference to Hind D from Metal Gear Solid.

[@caberscabers6973]

Overall Really well made video! I knew of most of these already but it still entertained me from start to finish, And something you probably didn't miss but decided to not put in was the secret eyeball room which is a rare room found by using the Teleporter prototype with nothing but a giant eyeball that stares at you. One of my personal favorite rooms

[@BelieveInUrself93]

>Most comprehensive ETG video on youtube >a million views >only 8k subscribers!? hell naw that ain't right. subscribed.

[@arthurellanna3766]

Amazing video Jeuely!! So much love and care for EtG came through, and the quality was top-notch :’))

[@aditkumar4644]

This was really well made. Clearly you made this out of your love for the game. highly underrated channel

[@Poshriel]

The Rainbow Chest was one of those secrets that happened to me before I even knew how rare it was. I got curious as to why I hadn't seen it before and why I hadn't seen it since and looked it up. Now it feels like a shiny pokemon event before you knew what they were, didn't even realize how lucky you were.

[@eyalcochva416]

I didn't know a funny indie game about a gun maze could have so much depth and that many secrets

[@TheEntireCircus]

As a huge gungeon fan myself, I am impressed and glad that all these interesting and secret facts are all compiled into one very informative video! Great work!

[@ReaverOfTheGods]

as someone who has not played the game in years and just had to restart on pc this video was above and beyond helpful

[@rommelvallecillo-drews7344]

Holy god this is an amazing video, I had no idea 70% of this stuff existed, let alone how to get to/unlock it. Thank you so much bro.

[@jamlikesbread]

watching this video all the way through like i havent played 300 hours of this game and know all of these already O.o love the vid

[@michaelmcarthur2944]

2 things I reccomend if you're having trouble with completing a blessed run, gunslinger activates nearly every synergy in the game for every gun on pick up, and can therefore make just about any gun incredibly powerful. Especially guns with multiple synergies, like the cactus. Second thing would be to just do rainbow runs any time you're doing a blessed run, as rainbow chests always drop 4 guns and four passive/active items. These can be absolutely game changing items like the gundromeda strain

[@ameliajales5307]

Eh the strain isn’t really all that good, if anything taking items that boost damage or grant special effects is better, metronome is a good example because when your gun changes in a blessed run you don’t lose the metronome bonus.

[@titon7608]

Thank you for making this! I've been interested in gungeon secret characters and stages but haven't found such a well thought out and in depth video on the concept like this yet.

[@berndee7083]

Thank you so much! This just shows me how much bigger and harder the gungeon is.

[@Argusthecat]

An oubliette implies the existence of a much larger and more terrifying oubli.

[@MajorKittense]

Not sure if anyone mentioned this already but when you go to use blanks to open the 2 walls leading to the rat, you can run on the tracks instead and the travel distance is actually shorter for some reason.

[@skulfate]

Bro, I have almost 1000 hours in gungeon and I've seen one glitch chest, three rainbow chests, and never once seen the mimic gun before today, amazing vid my dude

[@NFace23]

Trivia: While the keys the rat drops in the punch-out phase are nearly useless in rainbow runs, all the bonus guns and items he also drops can still be picked up.

[@ameliajales5307]

Using them on the chests does still unlock each chest’s respective items for future runs though.

[@ulissestiburcio7184]

I think the small interactions make this game one of the greatest of all time. When you ask the blacksmith a bullet to kill the past as the gunslinger she says "never been happier to make one of these"

[@ComputerGirlMae]

I went into this video as a very experienced gungeon player, (around 500 hours collectively over PC and Switch, I'd say) and I was STILL shocked by the mimic gun. I had no idea that existed till now! Awesome video otherwise, great guide for newer players

[@celestialkitsune]

Well, now I know what you've been up to in the past couple months. Good to see a new video from you.

[@JeuelyFish]

It's been a loooonnng time coming lol Normal life stuff like work is really the biggest limiter too, but glad it's out and thanks for checking it out!

[@Prysmatication]

I WAS LITERALLY WAITING FOR A VIDEO FOR THIS THANK YOU

[@JosePerez-nz4bl]

Incredibly helpful, thanks for the video.

[@magnetic9089]

I play gungeon often and still didn’t know about some of the stuff in this video, thank you

[@taneli5026]

There are always only 2 water barrels on the first floor. One *always* spawns in the fireplace room, and the other is randomly placed.

[@ironbull08x93]

21:43 it funny how he's glad you did it no hit

[@ChewyTabs]

This video is fucking amazing. It shows all the useful secrets and helps new gungeoneers to 100% this game in around... 2 months at least. Though, I have some tips that were missed: *ROOMS:* - The abbey _usually_ has the most obvious secret rooms, if you get to see a chest room always shoot the walls theres a good chance you might get a secret room and if not, you can waste ya bullets on the other rooms. - Alternatively you can use your armor to break the first secret wall but only do this if youre that desperate. - R n G department is 75% useless, it rarely gives good guns and could be a huge gamble for new players. (But if youre a loot goblin like me then go ham) *NPCs:* - You can steal 1 cursula items so that the curse will only be 1 instead of 2 - VAMPIRE MONEY, fuck yo health. *Bing bong* - You can on cheat winchester games using a flying item (there are lots and i cant name em all), where you can fly inside the shooting range and get stupid close to the targets to pop them and you will still get a S tier / A tier item despite cheating. Extra tip if you finished the game: - The finished gun can be found on brown chests since the game still counts it as an unfinished gun and its ridiculous. Thats all the tips i can give, good luck gungeoneers.

[@cononsberg6919]

The finished gun can also be dropped by junking chests! It's unbelievably broken and has saved multiple runs for me.

[@amongsussyballs]

@@cononsberg6919 oh right the unfinished gun could be dropped by breaking chests

[@ciaranpatrick6859]

More advice for people trying to navigate bullet hell, as someone who has done it so many times beyond what I can count, I’ve learned the typical room generation. The first section is a gamble, take one of the first three doors and if it’s a dead end just take one of the other two, which are guaranteed to be not dead ends. When you reach the branching path with two doors, take the one that looks like it’s moving away from where the other path would meet up from the starting room. When you get to the room with three doors, you’re in section two. I always take the middle door in between the other two which is guaranteed to link up to one of them. You can start to see if it is moving in a direction closer to the other door, and as soon as you can tell, go back to the start of section 2 and take the door that it isn’t moving towards. From then on it’s mostly just luck, but you may be able to tell if one of the paths in section 3 has enough room to be the lich boss path based on the map. And if you take a path from section 3 and you’re in the second room and see there’s another door, you know you’re on the right path, doesn’t matter much but it’s nice to know. That all may have been pretty confusing, but I hope I got it across.

[@ameliajales5307]

I’m not reading all of that, you lost me on the branching path of 2 doors.

[@SeanNH94]

Hey man, ever play Nuclear Throne? I started with Gungeon then heard about NT and it's quite a bit different but I like it just as much, maybe even more tbh! Great video, btw

[@petermicek5835]

i just bought this game and i never would have guessed that there would be this much to do im honestly amazed

[@johnthomson3827]

7:51 its too late snake, they've finished building... METAL GEAR!! 7:55 "fight me brother!"

[@TheUnaturalGamer]

Only thing I think was missed was the golden gloves you can unlock by beating the punch out rat phase without any damage. Also there is a “mechanic” to help beat the punch out phase. If you are playing as the gun slinger you can chain your attacks in a way that basically forces the rat into a predictable punch pattern that makes beating him very very easy! Great video :^)

[@MarshallLeeFlames]

OMG, I just realized that the footage you took for the Resourceful Rat Lair maze with the notes it's ALMOST the same as mine. The difference is that the second note for me is left. So, we nailed the Resourceful Rat lair just by one. Down, left (right for you), up, down, left and left.

[@darkAwesome100]

Tip for blobulon's splitting attack: if you run to the opposite corner (or just any corner for the middle spot) you can avoid the attack in it's entirety. Just be sure to dodge roll if any get too close, it's not 100% safe.

[@Breakingbad33]

I’ve put in a ton of hours and unlocked almost everything, and I got a lot of great info from this video. Kept my interest too. Great video!

[@Brandon-ff1yo]

already knew 90% of this, somehow still enjoyed watching it to the end

[@dark_fusion1288]

Damn, got a good 100+ hours on this game but never knew about the water in the demon door thing. Cheers for this.

[@koopakape]

Here I am watching a video about Gungeon secrets a year after it was uploaded and multiple years after I fully 100%ed Gungeon myself. And really enjoying it, to boot. I'm gonna have to replay this sometime man, easily one of the best indies ever made imo.

[@Matt77889]

Lol

[@picklechinazzboi2991]

Long time gungeon player but never really knew how to unlock the many secrets, nice video.

[@Darviniax]

I have a neat interaction between the Resorceful Rat and an Item: So, I was playing a run to get to the rat and and I found the "teeth collar" that gives a lot of Mimics. When I defeated the Rat, in the chest room there was a Mimic with googly eyes that basically said "nah man, you aren't going to find Mimics here"

[@impishlooter1550]

Thanks for this video, I honestly know I will comeback to it for reference multiple times, even some of the things I had unlocked/done were a mystery to me

[@mezzdup555]

I am surprised about the amount of stuff I have already done in this video but also the amount I am still missing out on! Great video I'm sure I'll have to watch this at least 20 more times to get to half of the things I want to do

[@TandJgaming]

After the first time you extinguish the fire for the oubliette there will always be a water barrel in the fireplace room unless you get astronomically unlucky. Also going to the oubliette is almost always worth it, an extra floor of chests and boss items and bullet casings really helps by the end of the run even if you have to skip a chest or two in the first floor.

[@justsomestickman.4300]

you missed the eyeball room that you have a small chance to be teleported to when using the teleporter prototype

[@SavoryParty]

So I'll just say this now it's off topic (but i've been meaning to talk about this for months but put it off). Ok there is a glitch I've discovered a few years ago with the paradox and cultist. As you probably all know you can't drop your starter items well the paradox can since his items aren't considered starting items but just normal items. Going in to the meat and potatoes how the glitch works is you go in to multi player and drop your starting item as paradox and pick up the item with the cultists (you'll see that the icon that the paradox had next to your items is gone) now die as paradox and you'll see that the item is back duplicating the item now you can revive paradox giving you the same item you just threw (this can be done indefinitely). It gets better you can actually reroll what paradox has by giving his starting item to player 2 and saving and quiting and on the next floor when he dies you can check your items and bam he now has a new starting item (you can duplicate that too). If any one has any questions feel free to ask I'll just go in to some miscellaneous for now though. It doesn't work with guns. I think that the reason this happens is because the game characterizes the class your playing as your starting item hence why you can't throw your item so when you have no starting item and revive the game goes oh you should have this and gives you another. Important I play on PS4 so this might not work for other platforms (I'm interested to see if it does)

[@phantoom7166]

I completed gungeon about 2 years ago and I can confirm I've done literally everything now. This gave me some great memories.

[@jacobrichins7069]

Holy cow this vid was so well made, I'm new to the game and totally underestimated how much there is to it. Thanks for all the tips and making it easy to understand!!

[@captainhydrodus4616]

I had an amazing clutch with the busted TV run before, I was stuck clinging to a door hoping rat won't pop up while I camp at the door so I can rush back and nab it

[@brohan5661]

Small bit of weird info as well, but if your on a high curse run, the small rats can be jammed, and sometimes drop a shell casing if killed. I'm unsure if they damage you on hit like jammed chickens, but I would assume so.

[@danypro1599]

They definitely hurt you if you touch them

[@kindaslyguy4092]

I'd just like to say, winning the punch out fight out of the rat battles is by far one of my favorite things to do in a run. Just soooo much fun and I felt so triumphant when I finally KO'd him. That being said, good informative video on a game I've happily spent hundreds of hours getting the platinum for and by far one of the hardest. Edit: I also want to note to anyone who doesn't know, if you have an item that grants flight you can cheat Winchesters game by flying up to the targets (;

[@KalebSDay]

Top tier video, thought you'd have tens of thousands of subs based on the quality at least. Keep it up man/fish.

[@TehCranZ]

Agunim is a reference to Aganim from The Legend Of Zelda: A link to the past. He's the same guy you fight before the boss in the Bullet's past as a dark magician with very similar attacks to the one from Zelda. Also, A"gun"im.

[@cartoonjunky9913]

An oubliette is a tiny, tiny ass room used to imprison the people you would basically forget about. Left there to struggle until they die.
