In MegaBonk, players often encounter a paradox: advancing through unlocks can make the game harder. Certain tomes and items clog your build options, and once acquired, they remain in your run’s pool permanently. The Toggler solves this issue—but it’s gated behind progression. Below, we break down how to unlock it, its mechanics, and its strategic value.
Unlocking the Toggler
- The Toggler is a shop upgrade purchasable with silver.
- Once bought, it becomes permanently available for all runs.
- Early-game struggles arise because it’s not a starting unlock—players must grind silver to access its benefits.
Mechanics of the Toggler
This tool allows you to disable weapons, tomes, or items acquired via silver unlocks. If an item disrupts your build or feels underwhelming, toggle it off to exclude it from future runs. Key limitations:
- Base gear cannot be disabled (e.g., the Fox’s fire staff).
- Only post-progression unlocks are toggleable.
Strategic Importance
- Rescues runs from bad RNG: Remove items that don’t synergize with your current build.
- Counters progression flaws: More unlocks usually mean diluted loot pools. The Toggler lets you curate a focused selection.
- Flexibility: Tailor your options to match preferred playstyles without restarting runs.
