This guide focuses on the weapons and upgrades available in Cult of the Lamb. While the source text is primarily about achievements and general game completion, it does touch upon elements that relate to combat and progression, which are tied to weapons and upgrades.

Weapons & Upgrades Overview:

• Deal with the Devil — This achievement is obtained after choosing to start a cult for the "One Who Waits." This choice is a significant early-game decision that impacts the cult's direction and potentially unlocks new abilities or progression paths related to the player's power.
• Indoctrinate First Follower — This achievement is gained after indoctrinating your first follower, which is a core mechanic for building your cult and progressing through the game. Followers can contribute to resource gathering and other tasks that may indirectly support the acquisition or upgrading of weapons.
• Defeat First Mini-Boss — This achievement is awarded upon defeating the first mini-boss. Mini-bosses often drop specific resources or unlock new areas that may contain better weapons or upgrade materials.
• Choose First Doctrine — This achievement is unlocked after selecting your first doctrine. Doctrines are fundamental choices that shape your cult's beliefs and can provide various benefits, some of which might enhance combat effectiveness or resource generation for upgrades.
• Perform First Ritual — This achievement is obtained after performing your first ritual. Rituals can offer a range of boons, including those that might temporarily boost combat stats or provide other advantages.
• Win a Game of Knucklebones — This achievement is earned by winning a game of Knucklebones. While seemingly a mini-game, mastering Knucklebones is noted as important for a 100% completion, and it's implied there's a harder achievement related to it, suggesting its significance in the game's progression.
• Follower Dies of Old Age — This achievement is gained when your first follower dies of old age. While not directly combat-related, follower management and their lifespan can influence the long-term stability and resource generation of your cult, which supports ongoing progression.
• Sacrifice a Follower — This achievement is obtained after sacrificing a follower for the first time. Sacrificing followers is a mechanic that can yield significant rewards, potentially including resources needed for powerful upgrades or even direct buffs. The guide also notes a separate achievement for sacrificing 10 followers, emphasizing the importance of this mechanic for progression.
• Obtain Follower Meat — This achievement is related to acquiring follower meat, which can be obtained from dead followers or by destroying wrapped-up bodies from Chemach. Follower meat is likely a crafting component or resource used in rituals or for specific upgrades.
