Hints:
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.
Raising Kain's lure: 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 lure 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 lure. All the enemies that
you already killed are back. Kill them again and get
even more lure. The Relic Boxes also work in the same
way.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
