Hint:
Defeating stone statues: A bit into the game you will start to encounter stone statues
that come to life and attack. An easy way to defeat them is to exit combat
mode and run close to it. When it starts to attack, get out of range. It
will hit the ground and be on its knees for a short time. Jump near it and
press Triangle to do a mighty chop attack. The back of this creature
tends to be its weak point. This will get more difficult depending on how
many of them attack you at once. It seems that the most that will attack at
once is three.
If there are more than one
stone statue, try to get all of them close to each other. Go close to one of
them and jump back when he tries to hit you. If done correctly, one of the
other statues will hit the one that tried to hit you.
Hint:
Defeating Elder God: Whenever a tentacle has little blue dots floating around it,
quickly slash it. Watch the eye occasionally when the blue shield is gone.
Get in quickly and give it a good slash. This is the only way to damage him.
When the eye starts to shoot out different colored balls, go to the right
side of the screen and stand in the depression in the ground. Run circles in
it, and most of the balls will miss you. Dodge all of the tentacles as they
whip around. Use these tactics and you should survive.
Hint:
Defeating Janos Audron: Like Turel, he is invulnerable except for certain moments. Dodge
him when he dive bombs you, then get in close and slash at him. You can also
attack him after he has shot the orange tornado at you. Attack whenever he
is down on his knees.
Build up your Reaver spell and
be ready to cast a spell (Spirit Reaver recommended). Do not use the spell
immediately. Instead, wait until he attacks with something like the orange
tornado and you are somewhat close to him. When he does the attack,
immediately cast the Reaver spell. As he goes to his knees he should take
some damage from the spell. you Also attack him at this point as much as
possible to inflict more damage. It is recommended that you attack him until
just before he starts taking no damage from your attack again. Then, repeat
the process. This takes time, but helps to conserve some health and inflict
quite a bit of damage at the same time.
Hint:
Defeating Kain: Use the basically strategy when defeating Raziel as Kain.
Hint:
Defeating Raziel: As Kain, use your combos and especially Kinetic Shackles. Pull or
throw Raziel around and keep slashing. Raziel is quick; keep moving and use
all your skills.
Hint:
Defeating Turel: You will take your vengeance upon his monstrous form. He is
almost invulnerable unless you do the following. When the glowing yellow
bands surround you, find the gong that is emanating them. You have to hit it
either with your Reaver or with a Tk bolt. This will stun him. Get to him
and hack at him as fast as possible. Repeat this as needed. Watch out for
his other attacks. Near the end, all four gongs will start to emanate. The
two end ones should be hit, killing him and giving you stronger telekinesis.
Hint:
Finding the Earth Relic: When Kain is looking for the Earth Relic, hunt in whichever forge
he is in. When you find a hallway filled with black Spectres (with purple
eyes) run along it until you see a fence. Run in a half circle on the left
side of the hallway. Jump over and down to find it.
Hint:
Spirit Forge Puzzle: When you get to the Spirit Forge and the Elder God is closing it
of with his tentacles, do the following. First, jump down and slash where
the four connect. Next, climb out and use your Dark and Light Reavers in the
holes on the ground (beneath the glowing runes). He will shout and drag the
front deeper. Go down and slash. Use Earth Reaver to help get back up to the
top. Do the same thing for Water and Fire. He will retreat deeper. Slash him
again. Use Earth to sink and slash, Water to freeze the waterfall, and Earth
to create to rock bridges. Climb to the top and stick the Air and Earth
Reavers in to ignite the Forge. Then, just float down and get it.
Hint:
Respawning Blood/Soul Basins: When playing as either Kain or Raziel, you will sometimes find
Blood or Soul Basins which will recharge your health when you consume the
contents. These respawn somewhere between two and five minutes apart from
when you used them. This is very useful if you are locked in a room with
multiple enemies, such as statues, which do not give either blood or souls
upon their death.
Hint:
Use Reaver charge repeatedly: Enable the "Unlimited Reaver charge" code. Then quickly
rotate the Left analog-stick and press the Square the entire
time.
Hint:
Traitorous enemies: If you get in a fight with multiple enemies, a strike that is
meant for you may hit one of your opponents. Sometimes two enemies will flat
out attack each other and forget you. This is very helpful when you are
fight multiple stone statues.
