We highly recommend unlocking the Primal Knife when going for the Minimalist trophy. This weapon's Exclusive Upgrade gives it infinite durability, letting players parry, stealth kill, and execute foes as much as they want.
You can get this Bonus Weapon by destroying all 16 Clockwork Castellans and purchasing it in the Extra Content Shop for 1000 CP.
Primal Knife Location, Stats, and Upgrades
After getting the Primal Knife, the easiest way to complete Minimalist is by unlocking New Game Plus and starting a New Playthrough on Assisted difficulty. Carrying over your preferred Handgun and Knife in an easier difficulty setting will make getting the trophy much easier.
New Game Plus Guide and What Carries Over
The Cat Ears and Deer Antlers are accessories with powerful passive perks that can massively help when aiming for the Minimalist trophy.
The Cat Ears provide infinite ammo for all of your Handguns, while the Deer Antlers greatly increase the power of Knife attacks. Try unlocking and wearing one or the other to give you an easier time getting through a pistol-and-knife-only playthrough.
