Was curious if the bomb strat at the end of the game could be used in knife only mode due to the fact that you aren't actually attacking anything with the bomb?
I don't think you can use that strat because you are picking up another weapon and using its effects.
most likely no it's classed as a weapon, but you can get a one cycle evie if you want to risk it
Maxy its when you lay a bomb down in the attic and blow yourself into evie for a 1 cycle. I figured it was a stretch but thought I'd ask here instead of risking a try 1:45:00 into a run lol.
I'm erring on the side of "No". My reasoning is that just because you don't hit anything with it doesn't mean it's not still using a weapon that isn't Knife.
The rules as they're written are "only use standard melee weapons" and I don't think a bomb could be reasonably classed as a melee weapon, so I'm going with the written rule.
a bomb is merely a melee AoE attack when you think about it though really
I'm just gonna say No. Knife Only is Knife Only. Also you don't even need this strat for a 1:46 in this category. I stopped running as soon as I got WR because there's a lot of RNG and it wasn't really fun anymore. ¤shrug¤
Appreciate it guys. I knew it was a stretch but hell why not ask lol. @maxy the RNG is brutal..
