Strategy and Preferred Items

Digby is arguably the hardest character to use, requiring him to get incredibly close to his enemies with too low health to make it safe in many situations. Also, the combo system is pretty much useless for Challenge Rooms and for either of the Final Bosses. However, once a high combo is set up, it makes him more manageable as long as you can keep it.

• Any health upgrades, such as Gold Herb and Peanut Butter Bunny, can create a larger safety net for getting up close in combat.
• Items like Trade-in-Reciept can increase the money gained due to most weapons being destroyed automatically
• Items like Tazer and Bonker can create a gap between the enemies and avoid taking damage.
