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

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.

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 :>

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.

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.

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.

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 :)

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.

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.

I've had the notes and the knawed key unlocked for YEARS and yet it never crossed my mind the directional cheese was the key to unlocking the rat maze. Thank you, i somehow learned something new from this video. *ETG IS PLEASED*

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.

300+ hours into the game, %100 all in-game challenges/achievements and, "The Gungeon Still Holds Mysteries." Mimic Gun and High Dragunfire were a surprise. One thing I don't see too many people find is this weird...empty glitch room with a giant gray eyeball. Found it only once using the Teleporter Item.

Old red is actually a blank round kin! He sells blank and bullet destruction related items

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

So I’ve been kind of obsessed with this game lately, and honestly I’ve just been watching any Gungeon content n RU-vid I can find. I’ve really enjoyed your videos and they’re very well done in my opinion! I just unlocked the gunslinger 3 days ago and I’m definitely going to try to 100% this game, definitely in my top 5 games of all time!

I just got Dead God on Binding of Issac after about 600 hours and recently started playing Gungeon casually. I thought I'd be more prepared coming from Issac but this game is WAY more complex when it comes to unlocks. This guide is a HUGE help! Thank you!

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.

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.

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.

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

While the Rat and Payday transformations were shown, kind of sad we didn't hear about the Gunknight transformation, especially since that one has actual stat changes

I started playing about a year ago and haven’t watched a single video about this game because I wanted to play blindly. But today I finally did, and I just wanted to let you know how great your vids are, superb editing and great pace/ structure. I’m subbed for life!! :)

this is honestly quite a well formatted and explained guide, great job on it, mate

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.

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

I WAS LITERALLY WAITING FOR A VIDEO FOR THIS THANK YOU

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!

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

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

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!

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.

40:05 for ser junkan it's 20% from destroying chests even after the first time until you unlock it as an item through killing a boss with it being at Knight tier. After unlocking the item its 1% chance from chest destruction. All in all though its a very interesting video and can tell a lot of work went into it!

Excellent video dude, love the interspersing of memes all throughout.

Excellent video. Informative and the effort you put in shows.

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

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

your so underrated! like, you make the best etg videos! also, that casey fact I never knew and I was so amazed! by the way, keep up the good work!

Such a well put together vid, good job, u had me hooked all the way through.

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!

Thanks for the video, very well made and much appreciated :) I am now even more excited and overwhelmed to discover these things myself... As someone who likes to 100% games this one is going to be one that sticks around for a while by the looks of things but I look forward to the challenge. Unlocking the gunslinger sounds insane to me though.

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!!

awesome video, clear and well-explained! keep it up!

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

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.

this video has way too much effort than I expected. Deamn this is good, really helpfull and fun video

Incredibly helpful, thanks for the video.

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!

I’m not even a big fan of gungeon although I have played it in the past, but I really enjoyed this video and found it interesting. The formatting made it easily digestible and entertaining, thanks

Thank you for this awesome video, so many new things I learned

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

great video bro. Very entertaining yet still informative. SUBBED

I knew pretty much all the secrets but your video was realy nice to watch and entertaining! 😊

Bro this is some quality content! Thanks for the easy to understand explanation :))

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation, {ngl started the vid couldnt not finish it} helped a lot to understand the whole game!!

Great video! I’ve been playing off-and-on since it was released, and I learned a few things with this video. Had no idea about the alternate gun skins. Back into the void I go…

Awesome video. Super helpful!

This video seemed to take a lot of work. Nice job! Love your vids nor keep going!

I absolutely love you edits of enter the gungeon

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

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

I’ve put an unreasonable amount of hours into this game and still learned a lot of new things here. I wish this kind of content existed for more games. It’s like a video version of a wiki.

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

Great video mate

I really love these style of videos, I wish you would make more but they probably take an extremely long time to make.

Thank you for making this video!

thanks for all the info man I really needed it

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

Amazing video!

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

Thank you for this vid. Learned a lot about the things I've been missing

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.

u just got 100% watch time like ur vids are so good keep it up mate!

GREAT VIDEO, MAN!

I’ve always wanted someone to make this type of video

Thanks for this great video, very useful

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.

I love this video rewatched this video a bunch thanks for the guide

this was an amazing video!! i recently did everything in etg and reset my game to start all over again

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.

Thank you for this useful guide

Great video. I bought Enter the Gungeon on a PS+ sale about 5-6 years ago for $4.99 even though I have never been great at bullet hell games and it was one of those games that I'd play every now and then in between more traditional rpg games like the Witcher or something. Now here I am, finally really getting into the game and trying to 100% it and being just amazed at how much stuff is in it - point is that Enter the Gungeon is the best 5 bucks I've ever spent on a game.

Great video buddy

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

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.

Great video, time to reinstall Gungeon and have a go at some of these.

Man this blew my mind, thanks

This vidio was amazing keep up the good work

love the video man

excellent video!

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

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"

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

thank you for this guide :D i was struggling a lot ty ty ty

Good shit bro!

great vid!!

I got this game fairly recently and have only been playing it casually so wow, apparently it is a lot deeper (and complicated) than it seems!

Loved the video! I’m surprised you missed the Cormorant synergy, where when you collect all the Gunknight armor pieces your skin changes and your guns never have to reload. Similar to the Payday items, the Gunknight items also increase the chances of finding the other Gunknight items.

thanks for the guide vid actually very helpful

Great vid, thank!

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