A couple of threads ago someone made mention that the "nuke your own house and get awesome weapons" trick didn't work anymore which I thought was interesting but understandable. I went to test if this was true in version 1.38R of elona+ but as it turns out the trick still works.

The trick really helps out anyone starting out in Elona+ because it revolves around killing the two npcs that give you the tutorial for the game. By looting their corpses you'll be able to get the Bow of Vinderre and the Ether Dagger/Dagger Surrounded by the Wind. Both weapons are incredibly powerful for anyone starting out and will allow a lv 1 person to immediately start doing red colored hunting quests.

You can't kill the NPCs at the start of the game in your house in a normal fight so that's where a nuclear bomb comes in. So create a character, accept the tutorial that the NPCs give and immediately leave your house. Do not kick them out of your house. Also, do not enter Vernis as this will cause them to leave your house as well. Instead, head to Derphy or any other town but Vernis and do escort quests and delivery quests. Make sure these quests do not lead you into Vernis as well. Any other city is acceptable. Do these quests until you get 12000 gold.

Next, go into any random field by pressing space bar on the overworld. In this random field try to find some rope. Now head to Derphy and talk to the NPC called Noel. Buy the atomic bomb for 12000 gold. Pick up the bomb and notice that you can't move because it weighs so much. This is where the rope comes in. Press T and select the rope and hang yourself. Die and choose to crawl back up and you'll appear back in your house with the two NPCs with hopefully the bomb still in your inventory.

If it's not there go back pick up the bomb and rehang yourself until you're in your house with the bomb in your inventory. Finally, press T again to activate the bomb and walk around as the countdown reaches 0. Revive and loot the NPCs
