1: Encounter the Commissioner’s Event

To start your journey toward the SMG, you need to witness a special event involving the Commissioner. In this event, the Commissioner is attacked by a triangular-headed boss monster, known as The Manager, and loses his wig.

  • How to Trigger the Event:
    • The Manager is a random boss that can appear in Endless mode every 20 floors. Some players encounter him as early as the 20th floor, while others might not see him until the 200th floor. It’s all about luck and persistence.
    • After defeating The Manager, you’ll receive the Commissioner’s Wig as a reward.

2: Prepare for the Fight

The Manager isn’t a pushover. He can summon up to four Nurses during the battle. These Nurses are incredibly fast, so make sure you have your speed boosts ready and use area-of-effect (AoE) attacks to manage them efficiently.

  • Pro Tip:
    • The game doesn’t auto-save after this fight, so consider using your white flag to exit and save your progress immediately.

3: Turn in the Wig

Once you’ve obtained the Wig, Beatrice will automatically turn it in the next time you see the Commissioner, which usually happens after your next boss kill.

4: Unlock the SMG

The SMG is now yours! This weapon is a beast, using all your Assault Rifle skills, including passive ones. Plus, it comes with an exclusive skill called Rush B (99T cooldown):

  • Rush B Skill Overview:
    • Beatrice throws a Flashbang, doubling her AGI for the next 3 turns.
    • During this time, Shell Rain consumes no ammo, allowing you to unleash a devastating combo: Rush B -> Shell Rain -> So Hot -> Shell Rain.

How to Get the Magnum?

1: Explore the Power Supply Zone

Now, let’s move on to the Magnum. This powerful weapon is hidden in a random side room within the Power Supply Zone (the first area).

  • How to Find It:
    • The Magnum is dropped by a special monster, which you might encounter in the Power Supply Zone.
    • This is entirely RNG-based, so you may need to explore the zone multiple times. Check every room thoroughly. If you stumble upon a room called Switch Room and encounter the mysterious monster, you’ve hit the jackpot!

2: Crafting Ammo

Before you get too excited, there’s a small catch. Both the SMG and Magnum require you to craft ammo, rather than relying on dropped ammo. But don’t worry, you can still make the most of the SMG’s Rush B combo if you have enough Flashbangs.

Final Thoughts

By following these steps, you’ll be well on your way to obtaining the SMG and Magnum, two powerful weapons that will make your journey through Endless mode a lot more manageable. Good luck, and may your enemies fall before you!
