ToD 100%

ToD 100% grinding shit

only weapons i haven't tested for this are combuster, fusion grenade, shock ravager, razor claws and shard reaper


GRINDING
Plasma Beasts:
kill the first grunthor (he's not worth exploiting unlike the 2nd one) then spam them to kill all the paratropes, gaining a little bit of exp every time. once the first swarm is done get the ammo crates and then do the same for 2nd swarm. die, rinse and repeat until VX (every time after this i will refer to ammo crate trips as AC)

Tornado Launcher:
lure the 2 paratrope hordes and shoot a tornado at em. the more guys you catch in the tornado the more exp you'll get. No need for AC's here, kill yourself and repeat once all paratropes are dead.

Predator Launcher:
target all the paratropes and kill them all. get AC's if necessary. don't bother with the flying enemies, they take too long to die and are not worth it

Buzz Blades:
kill everything with them, get AC's if necessary, rinse and repeat

Nano-Swarmers:
plop one then mash R1 from there, keep doing this until the two flying enemies at the first grunthor spawn location are dead, get AC's and do the same for the other flyers in the metal structure thing right next to you. rinse and repeat until you get Toxic Swarmers VX

Alpha Disruptor:
i honestly think the best place to grind levels for this gun is in NG+ at the very first big battle area on your first visit of Rykan V. don't bother grinding it on the first run as you obviously won't have it since you haven't been to Sargasso yet

Pyro Blaster:
same as any%. grind it to V3 on the Enforcers in Viceron and then grind the other 2 levels in Jasindu on the shield pirates

Negotiator:
maybe on the ships in Rykan V first part as well?

Mag-Net Launcher:
kill all the paratropes, shoot the nets at the flying enemies, get AC's if nevessary, do same for metal place flyers, die, rinse and repeat

some info on mag-net level damage:
V1 takes like 5 nets to kill one guy
same for V2 i think
V3 takes 4
V4 and V5 i think take 3 at most, could maybe hit them before netting to speed it up

RYNO IV:
no idea honestly

since we need at least 147,930,000 for all the upgrades + trillium armor

every grunthor abuse gives you like 11 souls
one soul is worth 800,000 bolts in NG+
you get like close to 9 million bolts for every grunthor exploit
you'd need to do like at least 16 exploits of this to get all the bolts you need...?
idk about raritanium, you get quite a lot but idk if it's enough to get you to 2 million, i started grinding with around 1,000,000 raritanium and stopped grinding with like around 1,660,000, so we will maybe need to rely on other planets for more raritanium
and this is just for the golden groovitron, idk how the other 2-ish million for all the rari upgrades factor into this as well

Note: all the grinds i did with the weapons in sargasso were done when they all had full raritanium upgrades, so ammo management and damage may vary a lot depending on when and how the route deals with raritanium upgrades
