I'm not sure of the weapon name, but essentially the machine gun. I feel like I'm decent at the dodging during the boss battle but some of the rooms get really hectic and I cant see projectiles coming at me from all angels (or I'm too zeroed in on what's attacking in front of me). 

I tend to avoid almost all the infected stuff, because it seems like usually the debuff is worse than the buff. Maybe that's what's hurting me. 

I admit I don't use the alt-fires well, or enough. I guess I like the lightning one, as it seems to go off quick, but I tend to just go with whatever the most powerful weapon I can find has. I do, also, hate the shotgun, but will use it over the level 0 handgun.

The rooms can be hectic yeah. Specially lockdown ones.  I do not hesitate to run out of a room if I can. The machine gun is a good one. I am actually a big fan of the lightning one but I'm not sure the range of it. 

I use the handgun because it gets you maximum range. More range to dodge, more range to run away.

Some debuffs are very bad, others I don't mind too much.

Also keep an eye on your consumables.

Have you found/beaten the house yet? You get a very powerful item when you do that. And then in the next playthroughs you can re-buy it.

If you can get 5 "ether" there is a room that lets you spawn there with all your stuff if you die one. So that is equally powerful.

If you can beat Demon souls you can beat at least the first world. You just get used to what weapons you like, traits. What debuffs are risky etc.

There is an ability to regenerates when you get low integrity that is worth I'd say almost any debuff.

Yeah, beat the house. Where  can i rebuy that item? Or is it only on the very next playthrough? I've also gotten it as a drop once, but I wasted it.
