How to unlock the Master Mechanic achievement in Resistance 3 - Definitive Guide

I had some weapons not fully ungraded when I arrived in New York City. Granted, most of them were but some only needed a few uses. I found the Subway a good spot to upgrade all the weapons provided they had ammo.

At the beginning of the level, a little ways down the tunnel, you will notice three Ravagers battling many Grims and Leeches. Stand just before the small fires and shoot whatever weapons need upgrading. Once ammo is exhausted, burn yourself in the fire to suicide. You will re-spawn at the beginning of the tunnel with ammo restored ready to continue upgrading - your weapon upgrade progress carries over. Repeat until your weapons are upgraded.

I did this with Normal difficulty and made sure to finish the level once done. Of course, if you have finished the game already, you can still load this level to get the trophy. Good Luck.

This trophy is fairly straightforward. Aside from the Sledgehammer, every weapon in the game can be upgraded. Upgrades are obtained by simply doing damage with the weapon. A weapon can be upgraded twice, and each time it gains a new ability or attribute. To make upgrading all of your weapons easier, there are a few things you should know.

  • Weapon upgrades carry over through playthroughs, so if you don't think you will be able to upgrade them all by the time you beat the game, don't worry, you can finish them on the next playthrough.
  • Like many trophies in this game, upgrades can be farmed at checkpoints. What this means, is that you can find an area with a lot of enemies, kill them all to increase your weapon's level progress, then die. Dying will respawn all of the enemies, but your weapon's experience will be kept intact, and the process can be repeated. By utilizing this trick you can easily and quickly upgrade all of your weapons.
  • Since a weapon's level is tracked by damage dealt, aim for headshots and utilize the secondary fire, because these do more damage than the standard fire.
  • In order to make this go as fast as possible, once you have a weapon maxed out, don't use it anymore unless it is desperately needed. Getting a bunch of kills with a level 3 weapon wastes a lot of potential experience that could be going to other weapons.
  • If you wish to grind this out, go to the Subway in New York. Several Ravagers and Grims here make for quick leveling.
  • Too see which guns have been, or need to be upgraded, simply hold to open up the weapon wheel and hover over each gun. Its level and experience bar will be displayed in the center of the wheel.

During your first playthrough, you most likely won’t be able to develop all the weapons, don’t worry, load any chapter with more enemies and upgrade the rest and the trophy is yours

Did it on my first playthrough.

We find a good place to upgrade some weapon or trophy. We shoot whoever we need and with what we need, and then we let the last enemy kill us, or we throw molotovs, grenades at their feet, or shoot from a rocket launcher. Best alternative fire tornado

New York was finishing up with its weapons already fully upgraded.

There are a total of 12 types of weapons in the game, 11 guns and a sledgehammer. For the trophy you need to improve all weapons except the sledgehammer.

The trophy is very easy to get by replaying the same place (kill everyone, kill yourself, replay) where there are many enemies. I upgraded almost all of my weapons in the sewers in the sewer hall, where a large number of chimeras are running towards you. The main thing is to trill and basically ( ) and in additional ( ) shooting modes - then the weapon is pumped faster.
