Bastion Cheats

For the first 2-3 levels, here are some perfect loadouts:

1. The machete with the breaker's bow. The machete will let you handle close range enemies while the breaker's bow can destroy 2 turrets in a single shot. Practice makes perfect, and you should practice getting power shots till it is a habit.

2. Once you have gotten 3 carrion bones (upgrades for your repeater), use that instead of the bow. The repeater is faster, deals more damage per second, and, with the homing upgrade, always finds a target.

Getting gold on this challenge is near impossible; you need to destroy every single target. Easier said then done. But try doing this the next time your in the challenge. *LOCK ON* to your targets until you empty your magazine, then roll ahead as you reload. Rolling is faster than walking, you will still reload as you roll, and the locking on eliminates wasting bullets or aiming.

Getting gold on the bullhead challenged is quite frustrating so here are a few pointers.

1. Right after you block an attack, regardless of whether you countered or not, keep blocking. Some turrets shoot 4 balls or you might get attacked by a hidden monster.

2. For the final enemy, the large blue (?) greaser, if you have 2 hits or less, stand right next to the edge and wait for him to charge. Then jump off. He should follow you off the cliff and you will only get one hit.

Throughout The Kid's adventure in his post-Calamity world, he'll come upon special items that he can use in the Forge to upgrade his assortment of weapons. This is the list of materials that uniquely correspond to each weapon:

• Something Heavy - Cael Hammer
• Something Stringy - Breaker's Bow
• Something Nasty - Fang Repeater
• Something Sharp - War Machete
• Something Coarse - Scrap Musket
• Something Greasy - Dueling Pistols
• Something Pointy - Brusher's Pike
• Something Fancy - Army Carbine
• Something Burnt - Galleon Mortar
• Something Foul - Fire Bellows
• Something Wrong - Calamity Cannon

Beat the game to unlock the New Game Plus mode. In this mode your experience level, weapons and upgrades carry over. Additionally, you can build your structures in any order in the New Game Plus.

Although it says the requirement for a gold medal is 2 or fewer hits, you can actually be hit 3 times and still receive the gold medal.

If you upgrade the bow to have +50% damage, the second bow upgrade, you can destroy the targets in one shot, without needing a power shot, making the gold medal much easier. If you are short on upgrade materials, getting a bronze medal will give you one something stringy upgrade material.

Having trouble with the Slinger Range Proving Ground? You can't get negative points, so shooting a little bit before the first target shows up can get you a few extra points that can make all the difference when going for a gold medal.

The Repeater (Crossbow) you get near the beginning of the game is awesome once upgraded with homing shots that are quite helpful. Stick with it!
