Hints & Tips
Easy souls
If you are low on health at the end of the game and before you
face the Boss go to the entrance of the keep for some battles. By
now they should be really easy just absorb the souls to raise
your health.
Beating Ayame
Ayame is one of the most troublesome characters in the game.
Although it seems she is impossible to kill, there is a way to put
an end to her. Ayame is susceptible to magic attacks only so you
have to attack her at a moment that you are fully charged with both
energy and magic. Start by doing all of your special magic attacks,
one sword at a time. Once your magic attacks run out, be prepared to
block a lot while charging the magic attack of any of the weapons
you have used. You can do this by blocking. Be prepared to move to
the other end of the room to give yourself some room to maneuver.
Once she stops to do one of her attacks, move forward and attack her
with your charged-up weapon. Even if your weapon is not totally
charged, be sure to attack her. She becomes invisible whenever the
attack is not magic driven. If this happens, she will not be able to
inflict any harm on you. Make sure to absorb any magic she releases.
Continue this until she is beaten.
Better gauntlet
Reach 20,000 souls and when you go to enhance you will have a
better gauntlet. Go when you have 50 to receive the Golden Ogre
Gauntlet. Or capture 50,000 souls to get an even better gauntlet.
Enhancing
When enhancing, collect roughly 25,000 souls. The number next to
the soul meter should say 25. Then enhance all of your weapons and
Orbs to level two. After collecting the Wind Orb, use the souls that
are left to bring that to level three, since it is weak.
Save your green and red mana for the fourth sword. It can be
located just beyond the destroyed master's house (level four or
five). By saving points, you can build the weapon up to full right
away.
Great armor
There is a chest behind the waterfall containing the Great
armor.
Metal armor
Manage to get the Fire Orb to level 3. Then go to the same place
where you played as Kaede last. You should see a ladder. Go up the
ladder and then open the door using your level 3 Fire Orb. You will
be in a room with another ladder. Climb down and you should see a
magic mirror. Next to it are two doors. Go through the one nearest
to the magic mirror. Fight a demon, then go through the door on the
right. Retrieve the gear and go to where you fought the demon. Then
go through the door and you should be in a room with blowing fire
jets. Pull the tab and run to the other side. Now open a cupboard
and put the gear in place. An intermission showing a door opening up
will now appear. Go in the room and you should locate a box. The
metal armor is inside.
Bishamon O Flute
There are two places in the game where a very strange man
hanging from the ceiling by his feet stares at you and also ignores
you. Further in the game, after you use the Evil Plate and open the
door, he will now talk to you. The man will now take you (whenever
you want), to the Dark Realm. In the Dark Realm, kill monsters until
two portals open. One to go up and one to go down. Keep going down
to the final level (9th or 10th) while collecting all the items on
the way. Open the box on the last level to get the Bishamon O flute.
Keep the flute just before the last fight with the Demon King. It is
needed to receive the Bishamon Sword.
Bishamon Sword
In the Demon Realm (just after you destroy the Ultimate
Creation) is a save mirror and three doors. Go to the door that
looks like an iron gate. It will not open at first. Use the Bishimon
O flute on it and go in. Go to the Bishimon Sword jutting out of the
Skull Demon wall object and take it. It is more powerful than all
three of your weapons put together, and it has speed. The sword also
has an unlimited supply of magic.
Fire Orb and Bow
After beating Reynaldo (the weird squirmy thing), go to the fire
to the left where the zombie eating the human was to receive a Fire
Orb. Before leaving the castle, enhance the Fire Orb to level 2. To
obtain a Bow in the castle, go to the place where the bucket is at
and cut it. Go upstairs and there will be a trick crate. Open it to
retrieve the Bow. Make sure you have normal arrows before you use
the Bow. You can find 10 normal arrows when you barely enter the
castle and see the samurai and the kid.
Double Dark Realm rewards
If you are talented in the Dark Realm, go through it twice, once
from the Sentry Box room and once from the well in the west area.
You will only get the Bishamon Ocarina and the Flourites the first
time, but you can pick up Herbs, Medicines, and another Talisman on
your second trip.
Blinking eye
When you have an Orb in your gauntlet, stand still for a few
seconds and the eye will blink.
Beating China Dolls
Note:
This trick means using as much mana as you think you can spare. In
every place you fight one of the china dolls, you have plenty of
room to run around. They try to bite when you first wake them up.
When you wake them up, block and back away as fast as you can. Try
to get to an area where you can put them into a corner. Keep using
the Wind Orb's magic attack. It helps to have it totally charged.
You can also use the other Orbs, but Wind does the most damage.
Then, equip the Lightning Orb, which has a fast attack that is nice
to have. Keep blocking and charging your attacks. It will at times,
just keep blocking until it stops then release your attack. After
roughly two minutes it should die.
Beating archers
Use this trick to save arrows/bullets and health when facing
archers. To kill archers on roofs without being in their line of
fire and using up your arrows or bullets, run straight under them
where they cannot shoot you and use a Wind spell. It will reach high
enough to destroy them in one hit. If another enemy is directly
under the archer, you can use a Lightning spell on that target and
it will kill the archer above him as well. You can now save all but
two of your arrows and all of your bullets for the last three
Bosses, where they are really useful.
Extra red souls
When fighting enemies around the floating blue skull-ball
things, allow them to absorb the souls that are released when you
slay an enemy. When you kill the skull-ball, you will obtain many
more red souls than if you had absorbed them straight from the
demon.
At the end of the game, when you are walking down the spiral pit,
you will come to a pink and black blob that squirts out the "squid"
monsters. Now stand slightly to the left of where they land. When
they are getting up (low enough that they are off-balance, but high
enough that your foot can get to them), kick them over and stab them
when they are laying down. You can easily get your red soul bar
filled up 30 times using this method.
Beating Chameleons
To make a short work of Chameleons, equip the Lightning orb,
press
R,
and run straight at them as soon as they appear before they become
visible. They will pause before they attack when they first come in.
You can get in a Lightning spell as soon as they uncloak and wipe
them out before they have the chance to do any harm. If you run out
of magic, keep the Lightning sword equipped and block. Do not attack
while they are using their sword on you, as they sometimes do a
double slam and if you try to counter you will get hit. Wait for
them to either uncloak at a distance and use their ring attack,
block, then run straight at them holding down
R
and counter; or jump up and attack you, block, then counter while
they are getting up from their crouch. If you do this fast enough,
you can get an instant kill.
Beating Marcellus
At the end of the game you should have every weapon and orb at
the maximum. When fighting Marcellus again, kick him and use the
Thunder Orb's magic. For some reason, this is stronger than his
other attacks.
Beating Fortinbras
Just start off by doing any type of attack that will make
Fortinbras fall to the ground (special attacks will make this fast
and easy). From this point on, just keep kicking him to death. This
will take awhile. You will never get hit, plus he will not be able
to attack you if you can keep the chain kicks going.
Use this technique if you have only your three normal weapons,
and not the secret sword. Kick him, then slash him with the Enryuu
Fire Sword. It is the strongest. Then give him roughly five kicks
and then deliver a Thunder Orb magic. Redo this until you have no
more Thunder magic left. Then, use the Wind Orb magic to knock him
down. Use the Fire Orb and some kicks. Most of his attacks are easy
to avoid, except the fire.
To avoid being hit by Fortinbras' fire attack, just go as far as
you can backwards.
