How to complete the Pacifist challenge in Megabonk

Looking for the ultimate test of patience and strategy in Megabonk? The Pacifist Challenge dares you to conquer every stage boss without firing a single shot. This grueling quest isn't for the faint of heart, but the reward—a rare achievement and a mountain of Silver—makes it all worthwhile. If you're ready to trade your weapons for wits, this definitive guide will show you the best strategies, characters, and items to secure your peaceful victory.

Choosing Your Peaceful Protagonist

Since your arsenal is limited to abilities and passive stats, your character choice is critical. While any hero can theoretically complete the challenge, some have a natural advantage.

• Top Pick: Tony McZoom. His "Zap" ability is a game-changer. This Area-of-Effect (AoE) skill damages enemies simply by you moving near them, providing a consistent and safe source of damage without violating the pacifist rules.

Your Arsenal of Passive Aggression: The Best Items

Your success hinges on items that deal damage automatically. We've broken them down into two key categories for your strategy.The Essential Items (Damage Without Hitting):
These are your bread and butter. They trigger on their own or from enemy actions, making them perfect for this run.

• Bob (Dead)
• Big Bonk
• Ice Cube
• Holy Book
• Cursed Doll
• Ghost
• Electric Plug
• Toxic Barrel

Situational Items (Trigger on Hit):
Avoid these initially. However, if you find items that grant Thorns(reflecting damage when you are hit), this list becomes valuable, as you can trigger them by letting enemies strike you.

• Shattered Knowledge
• Quin's Mask
• Cursed Grabbies
• Power Gloves
• And others from the original list.

Strategic Upgrades: Curating Your Loot Pool

One of the most powerful tools at your disposal is the Toggler upgrade. This allows you to remove specific items and tomes from the randomupgrade pool, dramatically increasing your chances of finding what youactually need.

Before starting your run, use the Toggler to disable these weapon-focused items:

• Items to Disable: Turbo Skates, Battery
• Tomes to Disable: Duration, Chaos, Quantity

Leveling Up Without Weapons

Gaining experience without a weapon is tricky but manageable. Keep your eyes glued to the mini-map for green and white markers. These lead you to:

• Pots: Smash these for instant XP, Gold, and Silver.
• Shrines: These provide permanent stat upgrades.
• NPCs: Always check with wandering merchants for powerful items that can turn the tide.

Adapting Your Gameplay Mindset

A Pacifist run is a dance with RNG (Random Number Generation). You mustbe flexible. Your perfect strategy might be foiled by the items the game offers you. The key is to adapt and overcome.

For example, if you find a Black Hole item, you can use it to group enemies together, making it easier for yourpassive AoE items like "Zap" or "Thorns" to damage them all at once.Pair this with an Agility Tome for better mobility, and you can kiteenemies while your passive effects whittle them down.

Embrace the chaos, trust in your build, and you will prove that in Megabonk,true power doesn't always come from a weapon. Good luck!
