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 Faustus 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.
