Reproduce a guide with Item Sets
The 1.2 announcement introduces switches for expansions and free updates. It gives disabling Paws & Claws while leaving other content active as an example. Open Item Sets from Character Selection and compare the setup with the guide.
If a weapon never appears, inspect enabled content before spending more rerolls. Installed content and enabled content are separate checks.
Check optional participation
Steam Library → Brotato → Properties → Betas shows participation. The 6 November announcement separates balancing from the default branch. It says this balance beta retains progression when changes move to main, and asks players to deactivate and unsubscribe from Workshop mods. Beta instructions ↗ (opens in a new tab)
That progression statement applies to this announced beta. Keep your own backup before an experimental setup.
Report a useful discrepancy
Include exact version, branch, map, difficulty, active sets and mods. A tooltip screenshot helps establish which rule you actually have. Use the developer-linked bug forum ↗ (opens in a new tab) for reproducible issues.
