Notes

  • The Dungeon typically contains 1-2 Handguns.
  • The internal code for generating dungeon chests fills chests with different items in order of their distance to the Dungeon's entrance, with the Handgun being the last item on the list before it starts over. As such, if a dungeon has more than 9 or 10 chests, one will always have the Handgun.

Tips

  • The Handgun can be immediately upgraded to the Phoenix Blaster at little cost.
