Cheat mode - Press L1, R1, L2, R2,
Square, Circle, Triangle at the main menu. Start a new game to begin
with the Soul Reaver and Iron Armor.
Draw weapon during a jump attack - During your jump attack, hold L2
then select "Berserk" Release L2 and hold R1. Kain should draw his
weapon and hit them with it.
Sneaking up on enemies - Hold L2 during game play to be able to creep
up on enemies and attack them. Be careful, as at times enemies may be
blocking because they may have seen you. This does work on end Bosses.
Rage attacks - Get your rage bar full. To do this you must block a
number of attacks. When your rage bar is full, press R1 + Circle to do
the rage attack. It works with Fury, Berserk, etc.
Strong attacks - Pick up the an enemy by pressing R1 + Triangle when
close. Press Square(2) to do a light attack. After doing this, press
the Analog-stick Up then press Square, which does a large amount of
damage to the enemy.
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.
To do an instant kill you must have either the thick sword or the
sword ax weapon equipped. Block until an enemy rests, then go to them
and press R1 + Triangle to pick them up. Depending on the enemy, you
should be able to cut their head off. This will not work on heavily
armored warriors. Press Forward + Square to make Kain chop the head
off.
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: 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.
Draw weapon during a jump attack - During your jump attack, hold L2
then select "Berserk" Release L2 and hold R1. Kain should draw his
weapon and hit them with it.

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 R1 + L1 (Attack and 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.
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.
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.
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.
