Start a new game to begin with the Soul Reaver and Iron Armor.
Hint:
Instant death attack:
To do an instant death attack, you must have mist in the area of the person.
Enter the mist using your dark skill ability "Mist", then sneak up
behind them. A skull will appear. Use this time to attack and you will cause
instant death to the enemy. Note: If you run into the front of the person,
they will immediately attack.
Hint:
Easy health:
Immediately after clearing a checkpoint, if you are low on health, reload
the game. You will be back exactly where you just were, except your health
meter is now completely full.
Hint:
Easy kill:
After defeating Sebastian and acquiring the Dark Gift Charm, use it on a
enemy that you cannot charm. It will appear as if they have a headache.
Quickly run towards the enemy and attack. Repeat this until the enemy is
killed.
Hint:
Raising Kain's lore:
When you encounter a save point, avoid it. Instead, first kill all the
enemies ahead. After your satisfied with the amount of enemies you have
killed, backtrack to the save point that was skipped and hit it. The game
records your current lore level at this point. Next, after the save point is
hit, kill yourself. Therefore when you regenerate at the save point, you
will have the same amount of lore. All the enemies that you already killed
are back. Kill them again and get even more lore. The Relic Boxes also work
in the same way.
Note: Do not max out Kain's
lore (blood bar roughly the same length as lore bar and lore bar full). If
this is done and the game is saved, Kain's blood bar will revert to
absolutely nothing. If this happens, a simple jump will cause Kain to die.
If you kill all available targets (including humans) throughout the game,
you will achieve the same blood bar level as you would using the trick. If
you do use this trick and are nearly maxed out, stop drinking blood and
opening relics. Otherwise, you will lose all your hard work when you save.
Hint:
Defeating Faustus:
At first, you are in a small circle room with two doors. All you have to do
is face the Boss and hold Attack + Block. Wait for him to
attack. He has four different types. In the first, he does a five or six hit
combo. In the second, he can punch, then kick. In the third, he will just
kick. In the fourth, he jumps back with a red glow and lunges forward. When
he uses his first type of attack, wait until he punches a third time, then
release your block and attack. Repeat this about five times to continue. In
the next room you must use the mist form to sneak up to the furnace and burn
him. To do this, you must first find the two furnaces with fog in front of
them. They are on opposing sides. When you first enter the room, one is to
the left and the other is to the right. Run around until he jumps to one of
the two, then sneak to the corner and turn mist on. Slowly walk to the
switch and fry him. Finally, he will jump around and lunge at you. Just run
around until he lunges. This will cause him to eventually fall. Run up to
him and use a combo. This must be done about three or four times in order to
defeat him.
Keep blocking and sidestepping
his attacks while finding open spots for attack until you get about one
quarter of his life down. Then, he will run off and enter a room will large
heaters and mist around them. When Faustus jumps on to a heater, proceed
towards the beginning of the mist trail that leads to the heater and pull
the switch to hurt him. Keep repeating this procedure until he jumps up on
to a chain, then run to a corner of the room and stay there until Fautus
jumps down . He will now try to jump and kick you from far away. If you
sidestep his attack, he will hit the wall and will be vulnerable for a few
seconds. Keep repeating this until he is dead.
The easiest way to defeat
Faustus is to block until your Fury bar glows and hit him with that. Dodge
every time you see him try to use a glyph attack. It only takes two Fury
hits to get him to go to the furnace room. Load up the Mist glyph and head
to a steam spot immediately. You should be able to turn on the furnaces
without taking too much damage running from steam spot to steam spot. Once
he gets burned and starts running around the rafters, just run around the
edges of the room until you hear him drop down. Try to be near a corner or
wall. Wait for him to jump at you, then jump or dodge his attack. Once he
hits the wall, he will be stunned. You can hit him with a good combo before
he jumps back up to the rafters. Repeat this two or three times and he will
die quickly.
At the start, equip your Fury
power. Block his combos, and back up when you see him charge up with a red
attack (which is unblockable). Try to get some hits in, then use Fury when
it is charged up. You will then enter a room with four furnaces.
Conveniently, one furnace has mist that flows close to the center of the
room. Chase him around until he is on top of that furnace. Then, without
getting too close to it, use the Mist power, and activate the furnace. You
will need to do this about three to four times. Finally, he will jump up
into the ceiling and strike you when he comes down. Keep running close to
the walls, and he will run into them. Attack him when he recovers. Keep this
up until he is defeated.
Hint:
Defeating Magnus:
Magnus is fairly simple to defeat. When he is standing in the middle of the
giant fountain that is surrounded by statues, run and hide behind the
closest one. He will try to burn you, but will hit the statue. Jump out and
shoot him with Telekinesis very quickly. Once he falls into the water, run
behind the next statue until he tries to burn you again and repeat the
process until he leaves. It should only take three times. In the next room
you will see giant statues holding scythes. Magnus cannot burn you anymore,
but he will charge into you. Do not bother hitting him. It does not do any
good. Get in front of one of these statues and get him to charge you. When
he does, dodge him and he will run into the scythe, breaking it. Once it
breaks, you will see a glowing telekinetic switch. Jump onto one of the
boulders or platforms so Magnus cannot get you, and shoot the switch. The
statue will open its arms. Do that to all of the statues and the gigantic
statue in the middle of the room will be put back together. Get Magnus to
charge into the base of the weapon that the statue is holding the same way
as before. When it breaks, make him charge into the base until the statue
falls and crushes him. Just stand next to it and shoot Magnus with
Telekinesis. That should make him charge you.
When you are fighting Mangus,
it is a lot easier if you just grab him and throw him into the giant statues
holding scythes. Even if you miss with the throw, he can still bump into
them when he is getting up, and they will still break.
When the battle starts, stand
directly behind one of the statues. Beware, his Immolate attack can kill you
with one hit. When he destroys the statue, use the Telekinesis gift to knock
him into the water. You will need to do this about four times. Enter the
next area with the Telekinesis still equipped. In this area, you will see
four statues glowing red. Stand in front of one and shoot Magnus with the
Telekinesis. He will charge at you, and when he does, jump over him. A
switch will appear at the feet of the statue. Use your Telekinesis to
operate it before Magnus recovers. Do the same for the other four, and the
statue in the middle will rebuild itself. Next, use the Statue technique on
the large one; you may need to do this more than once. This should finish
him off.
Hint:
Defeating Marcus:
You will fight Marcus in a cathedral, on the bottom floor first. On the left
and right sides of the room are switches, one on each side. These switches
activate bells which disrupt Marcus' concentration and leave him vulnerable
for a short time. Hit one switch, then run to the other switch, hitting
Marcus on the way. Continue this until his "puppets" disable the
bells. Go up to the second floor. Marcus will just run around until you kill
him. Use the jump ability to alternate between sides, hitting him on the
way. Once he dies, you obtain the Charm ability.
Just hit the bell switches and
hit him when he is stunned. When his puppets disable the bell, you can still
ring it by jumping into it. He is easier to locate that way. Then, just run
around killing enemies while hacking up Marcus, occasionally ringing the
bell. You can avoid the puppets altogether, but you will want to build up
your Lore bar as much as possible.
To defeat Marcus follow the
previous strategies until his "puppets" break the bells. After
this happens, chase Marcus until you run into his "puppets". Kill
the puppets, increasing your Lore and Blood bar. He will be on the same
floor as his "puppets" -- this will help you learn where his next
minion is located. When you find him, use combos repeatedly until he loses.
Chase him into the room that
has two switches on each side. Once there, run to a switch and use it to
ring the church bells. This will momentarily paralyze Marcus. Attack him
with combos and the Fury power. When he recovers, run to the switch on the
other side and ring the bell again. Continue to do this until he summons the
bishops. Run upstairs and attack the guard, gaining any lost blood and
weapons. He will be invisible, but will occasionally reappear. When he does,
chase him, then attack him. You can still hurt him while he is invisible. He
will summon more guards, but will be defeated before long.
Hint:
Defeating the Sarafan Lord:
When the battle starts, the most important thing to do is to locate him.
When you do, go to the platform across from him so that there is a walkway
between you. When he fires the energy orbs, jump above the first one and
stay down on the second. Then, jump again on the third. When he is over you
will have seconds to use your Telekenisis on him. When you use it,
immediately switch over to jump and knock him off the ledge. You cannot be
too close to him when you try to jump or he will teleport away. When he has
the Soul Reaver out, switch over to Immolate. He only has one set of
attacks. He hits you five times, then uses the magic red sword. Block his
five attacks, jump back from the sword, and use Immolate on him. This is the
only way to hurt him here. Do this three times to continue. When you get the
Soul Reaver, he still has the same attack pattern (five hits then the magic
punch). Block the five hits and jump straight up in the air to dodge the red
hit. When you get down, immediately use the Soul Reaver. You can only hit
him one time per round of attack. It will be awhile before you can defeat
him.
When Kain has the Soul Reaver
and the Sarafan Lord does the five hits, dodge the magic hammer blow. Then,
grab the Sarafan Lord and thrust the Soul Reaver through his chest. You will
defeat him in less than a quarter of the time it would take with one hit on
each turn.
Once you have obtained the Soul
Reaver, build up your special power and use the berserk attack. It will kill
him within two hits.
After getting Kain's Soul
Reaver back, the Sarafan Lord will hit you with his five punch combo and his
power punch. Block his five punches and dodge his power punch so you can
charge up Kain's "Berserk" attack. When done, just block the
Sarafan Lord's punches and side step his power punch, then hit him with the
"Berserk" attack. If the Sarafan Lord does not block the attack,
just repeat and enjoy the ending.
For the first part, wait for
him to teleport, then make your way to him while avoiding his blasts. Before
you stand on the same platform he is on, fire a shot of Telekinesis to knock
him back. If done correctly, you will see him start to lose his balance.
While still standing far off, use the Jump power to knock him off the
platform. For the next part you must face him in hand-to-hand, except you
are not going to use your hands except to block. He will do a five hit
combo, then an unblockable attack. After blocking the first five, back off
and wait for him to finish his attack. Then, move back in and continue to
block. When your rage is high enough, use the Immolate attack. This is the
only attack that can hurt him. After the short intermission sequence, you
will fight him again, but this time with the Soul Reaver in your hand. Once
again, he will do the five-hit combo plus the unblockable attack. There is
only one way to hurt him -- grab him and stab him. Do this a couple of
times, and you will view the ending sequence.
When you have reached the third
and final stage of the battle with the Sarafan Lord, you must block his
first five attacks then attack once. This takes far too long. Instead,
select "Berserk" from your Dark Gift menu when the final stage of
the battle begins. As you block his first five attacks then dodge his sixth
attack (which is unblockable), you will be building Berserk energy. Block
his five attacks then dodge the sixth unblockable attack. Unleash your
Berserk attack, and you will get in twice as many hits. You only need do
this twice and the Sarafan Lord will be defeated. This shortens the battle
and allows you to complete the game with much less aggravation.
When the battle first starts,
find him quickly. Then, go to the nearest platform to him (not the same one)
and use your Telekinesis dark gift. Use it on him, then use your Jump dark
gift and jump on him. It will knock him off the platform. He will say some
things about the Nexus Stone. Kain will drop the Nexus Stone off the
platform, destroying the Hylden Gate. After that, do your normal block dodge
attack moves and use your dark gift Immolation. This will take him down
quickly. Ionnis will appear, and he and the Sarafan Lord will fight. The
Sarafan Lord wins and Ionnis will tell you to pick up the Soulreaver. You
will need to do normal block dodge attack and use your dark gift Berserk to
bring the Sarafan Lord down very fast.
To defeat the Sarafan Lord,
dodge the shots from the Soul Reaver, then use Telekinesis to briefly stun
him. In this time, switch Dark Abilities to Jump and attack him. This will
knock him off. An intermission sequence will start, then you will have to
fight again. During this time, block until he raises his sword above his
head. When this happens, jump directly up and float until he finishes his
attack. Your Rage Meter should be filling. When it is full, use Immolate on
him. Repeat this process until the first vampire appears. He will be hurled
from the area into banishment. An intermission will play and you will be on
the middle platform. Once there, repeat the process, except he will rest
after doing his combo. Hit him once with the Soul Reaver and continue.
When on the final stage of
defeating the Sarafan Lord (when you have the Soul Reaver), switch to
Berserk and build up your rage bar. Attack with Berserk you should kill him
in two repetitions.
First, dodge his beams then
knock him off. When he is using his second tactic, use Immolate four times.
When he is using his third tactic, use Berserk two times.
Hint:
Defeating Sarafan guards:
If a guard is a good distance away from you, use the Charm spell. The Charm
spell will not succeed in controlling them, but it will succeed in confusing
them. The guard will hold his head with both hands, as if they he has a
sudden headache. During this time, dispose of the guard with any desired
weapon. The easiest way is to cast Charm, walk up to them, lift them off
their feet, then decapitate them with the axe sword.
Hint:
Defeating Sebastian:
When the battle starts, run the opposite way of the mist shooting out of the
grates. Jump over when needed. Sebastian will not jump, thus burning
himself. In his second phase, you must be directly behind one of the mists
and follow it around until it stops. When he grabs onto the wall, put the
purple portal object between you and him. He will run directly into it. Do
this three times to continue. In his third phase, he will try to destroy the
stone. Jump up there so he gets off and charm the peasant in the room to
unload all of the mist on the ground. His fourth phase is just a fist fight
until the finish.
Allow Sebastian to kill you
once. Then, allow the game to idle and watch the "steam" appear
and kill Sebastian.
At the beginning, block his
attacks and watch out for his red attack. Be careful -- after you knock him
down, he will charge at you with an unblockable tackle. Simply undo the
Autoface and jump over him. Next, he will start to run around in circles
while a column of thunder hits the middle of the room. Run around the center
while avoiding the dangerous gases from the side of the room. When you see
him stop, this means he will strike. Stand in the room so that the column of
thunder is between you and him. He will run into it, then leap back into the
side. Repeat this about three times. Knowing he cannot defeat you, he will
try to destroy the Nexxus Stone. Jump on top of the platform and use the
Charm Gift on the guard that is activating the switches. Use him to operate
one of the switches and draw Sebastian to you. Continue to attack until he
is defeated.
Whenever Sebastian charges at
you, jump and use the fire attack. Get his health down to about one
fifteenth, then he will charge up and will eventually hurt himself. He will
take off half his health.
Hint:
Defeating the big mosquitoes:
In almost every scene, the enemies have boundaries that they cannot cross.
If you find these boundaries, the mosquitoes will be waiting on the opposite
side for you to cross back over. Use the jump attack by jumping over and
kicking them. Then, before they recover, run back over the boundary line.
After four kicks the mosquitoes will die. It is more difficult when there
are two waiting for you, but can still be done.
Hint:
Wharves: Jumping to Rune Knights:
Around the middle of the Wharves chapter is a place where you have to
constantly jump across a river with one Rune Knight in each area you jump
to. Before you jump, hit the Rune Knight twice with Telekinesis. When you
jump, try to make the jump indicator red so that you hit the Rune Knight.
While he is on the ground, draw your weapons or get your claws out.
Immediately when he stands, start attacking and catch him off guard. Two
hits should be required with bare claws and only one hit with some sort of
weapon.
Glitch:
See woman talking to headless man: Enable the "Cheat mode" code, then go to the Chapter 4
and complete 40% of it. You will be in a courtyard with two Sarafan guards
and three villagers. You will see a man and a women talking to you right,
and at the top left you will see two Sarafan guards and a man. Go to your
left and turn to mist. Cut off the man's head then kill the two Sarafan
guards and the other villager. When you are done go back to the lady. She
will be talking to the headless man.
