Ultra Chaos Achievement Tips

-----------------------------
Written by spiritofdoom02

Ultra Chaos seems like a painful achievement, because it is. Here’s 
a few tips I thought of to make it easier.

-=Build Tips=-
* AS with most achievements, don’t make it harder on yourself, don’t 
  play on annihilation.

* While you’re on your way to level 40, you need to be aware of a few 
  things.

* As far as I know, rerolls are OK as long as you take only the central 
  mod.

* I am not sure about taking body/weapon/shield components after the 
  initial 3 levels would invalidate this achievement, so I will assume 
  we are not taking them.

* I don’t know if taking any body/weapon/shield component other than 
  the central one would invaldate the achievement, so assume that they
  would to be safe.

* Reroll NOT to get what you want, but to avoid what you don’t want, 
  things like Hidden Power, Overseer, Flash Shielding, Polar Inversion,
  and other risky mods should be avoided UNLESS you get lucky enough 
  for a build that can benefit from it.

* Now onto a fun tip, if you aren’t against restarting and aborting 
  runs repeatedly, try to get Salvo and Spectre in the weapon and body
  selections for the central mod. Spectre and Salvo are a broken combo
  and will almost fully compensate any damage needs for the entire run.
  Spectre is also handy at avoiding damage through not being targeted.

* From here, do the run while keeping these in mind and you should have 
  a much better time trying for the achievement.

Boop Noodle Achievement Guide

-=Mods That Reduce Body Size=-
* Streamline: -10%.
* Super Mod: Leaf on the Wind: -10%.
* Regression: -4% for each tier 1 banished, up to -24% with 6.
* Rare Wild Mod: Winnow: -7%, we don’t need this because we have enough.
* Minimum size: 100% – 10% – 10% – 24% – 7% = 49%

However the achievement only requires 65% size, which is acquirable with 
just non-wild mods

-=Steps=-
* Pick Draft Mode, disable Wild Metamorphosis as it’s not needed.
* Decline weapon and shield, pick Research body, reroll if needed.
* Try not to pick tier 1 upgrades we don’t need, picking Ataraxia or 
  weapon/shield is good to save a reroll. We can also Banish tier 1 
  upgrades we don’t need.

Upgrades we want:
* Improved Thruster -> Streamline, banish the other 2 in the tree.
* Rapid Fire -> Warpath, banish the other 2 in the tree.
* Super Mod: Leaf on the Wind
* Efficiency -> any tier 2, banish the other tier 2.
* With Streamline and Leaf on the wind, you get -20% size, so you need 
  -15% more.
* Each tier 1 banished with Regression gives you -4%, so make sure you  
  have at least 4 tier 1 mods banished before picking it, which should 
  be easy if you followed step 3
* Swap to Leviathan, reroll/banish/level if needed.
* Achievement is Unlocked, enjoy your tiny noodle.
