Well kris, if you get Shockwave, just spam ability recharge to keep jumping , and if you get Slingshot, just spam food on the first turn . As for the Unstrung Ultra achievement Glamrock Freddy, you can replay the challenge by going all left on The Index as I mentioned in the achievement description!
Glamrock Freddy 29 Jun @ 11:48am 
I started a new game so I could get unstrung ultra but puppet is still gone
kriskriskris 29 Jun @ 5:59am 
am i forgetting something..?? how are you supposed to beat a robot without /getting hit/ if you cant even use a shield, and jumping is only once every 3 turns?
oleyisus  [author] 28 Jun @ 1:10pm 
Hey Rebel, all I can say is you should make sure to have max health (500) and around 15 shields and good healing items if you wanna do Unstrung without hook.
🗲 Rebel 🗲 28 Jun @ 8:10am 
I can't get the unstrung achievment I've beaten the challenge without using hook I get to the showdown and when I lose all HP I get game over I don't event get to the point where the Rock paper scissors change on the screen and it's so annoying I already beat him 3 times
