FAQ: Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commando for PS2

When you first start challenge mode your weapons will be weak and it will take a 
while for your weapons to upgrade from the mega to the ultra. Your best chance of 
easily beating the levels would be to save up for the RYNO 2.  This can kill most of 
your enemies in about two shots depending on size (could be more could be less). It 
would also be a good idea to buy the shield. This is one of my favorite weapons. 
When you first buy this gun all it will do is protect you from gunfire.  The upgrade 
to this weapon is extremely helpful. It turns into the tesla barrier and it will zap 
an enemy when it comes close to you.  This can be most helpful when you are going up 
against the mutated protopet.  You can shoot at it with the RYNO 2 without worrying 
that you will get killed by the other enemies around you.

1)Lancer - Heavy Lancer
