Megabonk character questions
How many characters are there in Megabonk?
This table lists 20 characters as published by the Megabonk wiki. 2 are available from the start and 18 must be unlocked through prerequisites before you can buy them with silver.
What does the passive ability do?
Each character begins every run with a unique passive that scales as you level. The passive is the main thing that separates one character from another, so read it before you commit silver to a unlock.
What is the silver cost?
Once you meet a character's prerequisite, you buy them with silver at the shop. Starters list "Unlocked by Default" and cost nothing. The silver cost is the final gate after the prerequisite is met.
Why does a prerequisite mention a tome or a tier?
Some characters only appear after you reach a milestone such as a Damage Tome level or a Forest/Desert tier. Those milestones are the real grind; the silver is just the last step.
