How to unlock the WEAPON COLLECTOR achievement in The Bug Butcher - Definitive Guide
To get to the weapon upgrade purchasing menu, you navigate from Main Menu to Arcade to Player Stats and go down to the second tab (with the bullet), which is Weapons. Each Weapon has its own tab, so you can shift across to the right to reach those available through pickups.
You will need a total of 5000 coins to buy all weapon upgrades:
1. Machine Gun - 250 first upgrade, 750 second upgrade
2. Laser Beam - 250 first upgrade, 750 second upgrade
3. Rocket Launcher - 250 first upgrade, 750 second upgrade
4. Gatling Gun - 250 first upgrade, 750 second upgrade
5. Lightning Gun - 250 first upgrade, 750 second upgrade
I bought the weapons after the perks and received this achievement after completing the All Stars and Combo achievement for Floor 02 on my second playthrough, before completing the same achievements for Floor 04. That said, I highly recommend upgrading the Machine Gun first; I found it makes the game much easier. By the time I completed all other achievements, I had about 18,000 coins leftover.
The trophy description is slightly misleading. You need to unlock all the weapons AND upgrade them to their maximum power. There are 5 weapons in total:
- Machine Gun
- Laser Beam
- Rocket Launcher
- Gatling Gun
- Lightning Gun
These are the weapons you pick up while playing the game. They are random in regards to which ones appear. You cannot choose just one weapon to play with (in Arcade Mode).
All of these will be unlocked when you complete Level 12 (Floor 03). Each weapon has 3 upgrade levels - the 1st is open from the start and the 2nd and 3rd can be bought in the store with coins you pick up while playing Arcade Mode. You’ll need a total of 5000 coins to unlock all the upgrade tiers. You will earn more than enough to do this while going for the 3 Star trophies. Once you have purchased the final upgrade for the last weapon, the trophy will unlock.
This achievement description is a little misleading, as you will need to unlock all the weapons plus upgrade them to their highest power. Each weapon has three upgrades and there is a total of five weapons:
- Machine Gun – Unlocked from level 1, upgrade 2 costs 250 and 3 costs 750
- Laser Beam – Unlocked from level 1, upgrade 2 costs 250 and 3 costs 750
- Rocket Launcher – Unlocks on level 7, upgrade 2 costs 250 and 3 costs 750
- Gatling Gun – Unlocks on level 6, upgrade 2 costs 250 and 3 cost 750
- Lighting gun – unlocks on level 12, upgrade 2 costs 250 and 3 cost 750
The weapons with randomly appear throughout all the levels, but that does not mean they will be available to buy.
Once you buy the last upgrade the achievement will unlock.
