Introduction

If you're reading this, you're having trouble with Blood Omen 2. This can be a

spoiler free walkthrough if you don't read ahead of where you are! Well I hope

this guide can help you. It is written from the Playstation 2 version of the

game....with its many defects. And in the end I mainly wrote this to get the

$50 bounty.

1.Items

Red/Blue Lore Chests: Contains 3 things of magical energy that fills the lore

meter. The Blue chests contain 5. They are operated the same way of sucking

blood.



Vampire Weapon Power-Up Chests: Increases the power of Kain's weapon at hand.

It will be endowed with a purple hue. His claws won't work with this and once a

weapon is used with this the chest, the chest cannot be used again. Also if the

endowed weapon is switched with another normal weapon it loses its increased

powers.



2.Weapons

I'm not going to list all the weapons and they're attacks because they are all

pretty much the same. When holding a weapon they appear below your rage bar and

turn red when about to break. Their strengths go along relatively with their

size. However I will divide them into three categories:



Claws:These act just like normal weapons except weaker.



Normal WeaponsSpiked Club,Dagger,Long Sword,Sarafan Staff, Cutlas,Dual-Bladed

Staff, Small Ax)

All these weapons can do three hit combos. When holding a grabbed opponent you

can do three weak hits by pressing the attack button, do a heavy attack by

pressing up and attack, or throw them a great distance by pressing up and the

grab button. I recommend to inflict the most damage is to do two weak hits and

finish off with either the heavy attack or throw.



Best WeaponsGreat Ax, Broad Sword)

Like the normal weapons these are identical. Same three hit combo, same moves

when holding a grabbed enemy. However, with these weapons by pressing up and

attack you can behead the enemy. This can be a relief if you don't like long

battles. Their are several enemies this can't work with. Of course the

non-grabbable spiders and demon spiders but also any enemy with shoulder pads.

They are the ones holding these weapons to begin with! So for these guys just

go with two weak hits then the throw.



3.Enemies

All enemies that attack are treated the same way. You block and then attack

when there's an opening. But I'll go thru the local yokels of Meridian anyways.

If they can be grabbed a (g) will be next to their name and if they can be

decapitated with the best weapons a (d) will be next to their name.



Citizens(g)(d): These include the men, women, and guys with white face paint

that aren’t carrying weapons. They populate Meridian in order to provide a nice

drink for Kain and in some places to provide storyline when they're conversing

with each other.



Thugs(g)(d): The weakest weapon carrying enemies of the game. They are

shirtless men covered in tattoos. They usually take three hits to kill and drop

a spiked club for you to take. There is no skill involved for these guys so

just block, attack, and grab till they're dead.



Thieves(g)(d): Ninja like women armed with a dagger and crossbow. They are a

little stronger then Thugs in the fact that they can shoot you from a distance

with their crossbows. But in close just block their attacks and kill them

anyway you like. Three hits won't always kill them but at the very least put

them into a dying state(where they crawl away for a few seconds before dying).



Guards(g)(d):Armor clad men, shaved bald with mouth pieces. Their weapon of

choice is the long sword. With a weapon, they usually take six hits to go down.

Also they are the first enemy you run into with an unblockable attack. You'll

see them crouch back and glow red, and you'll have to dodge by either jumping

to the left or right.



Glyph Guards(g)(d): Armor infused with glyph energies are worn by these men in

order to detect vampire presence. Use the same strategy you use for regular

guards. The only thing making them different from guards is that they can find

you when you're in mist form. Other than that they are just like guards, even

carry the same weapon. Except for later in the game when some carry dual-bladed

staffs.



Priests(g)(d): These are basically a combination of guards and thieves dressed

up in white cloaks. The weapon they carry is a staff with the Sarafan symbol on

the end of it. Anyways treat them like guards to take them out. I say

combination of guards and thieves because at one point in the game they are

able to shoot you just like the thieves.



Knight(g): These are beefed up versions of the guards with huge shoulder pads

preventing decapitation and are armed with great axes. Treat them like all

other enemies, blocking, occasionally using your rage meter, and waiting for an

opening to attack. They also have an unblockable attack in which they glow red

and charge at you.



Glyph Knight(g): These are to knights as glyph guards are to guards. Basically

its just the same as a knight but carries a broad sword instead and can detect

you in mist.



Beast Demons(a.k.a. green spider like things): For these creatures, wait for

there combo and after two blocks attack them. Their unblockable attack starts

off with a faint green glow and leaning back in order to hurl up on them.



From this point on treat any other enemy you come across like a guard. Except

the spiders in the eternal prison, treat them like beast demons.



4.Controls

This game is on three different platforms. And luckily for me, the creators of

the games put the instructions for controls in the game(they appear as texts on

the screen at certain key points of the game).As you play thru the game, it

tells you how to move, run, jump, suck blood, use dark gifts, and all other fun

little things Kain can do.



5.Dark Gifts

Fury: One of the two dark gifts you start off with. Fury is one single powerful

blow which can come in hand early in the game before you get better dark gifts.

In order to use it you'll have to fill your rage meter by blocking attacks. The

meter can fill up blue or red. Blue is when a non rage using gift is in place

and red is for rage moving dark gifts. So when fury is being used block until

the red glows a bright red. That glow means you can unleash fury's one powerful

hit.



Mist: Mist is the other dark gift you start off with. Mist only works when

there is a small mist covering the ground. Otherwise there is no other

requirement to use it. While in mist mode you can sneak up behind enemies and

perform stealth kills. In order to do a stealth kill you have to be behind the

enemy, in mist form, and you have to be close enough to where a faint image of

a skull appears above the victims head. When that skull is there you can do two

different kinds of stealth kills for each weapon(note some weapons have the

same stealth kills). To do the first one just press attack when the skull is

there, for the second one press up and attack at the same time. You can take

out at least one person at each field of mist but I don't recommend this for

Glyph carrying enemies for they can find you in this form.



Jump: Acquired from the first boss you defeat, jump lets you leap vast

distances. It works by first pressing the dark gift button and with a shadow

image of yourself, position where you'll land. If the shadow turns purple it

means you can jump there and if white it means you can't. Jump can also be used

as an attack. Align the shadow image with an enemy and if it turns red, you

will be able to jump punch them. However some enemies will see you and jump out

of the way in order to take advantage of a brief window of attack on your jump

recovering self. This will be referred to as 'd.g. jump' in the strategy guide.



Charm: Acquired from boss #2, charm lets you controlled week minded citizens in

order to flip switches and valves normally inaccessible by you. Notice how I

said citizen, as in no hostile creature.



Berserk: Acquired from boss #3, Berserk works like Fury accept where Fury only

dealt one blow, this unleashes a great combo.



Telekinesis: Acquired near the end of level seven, telekinesis is used to open

locks or, like in soul reaver, harm enemies. Harming enemies is cheap but they

fixed it to where it isn't as cheap like in soul reaver where you could

continuously shoot.



Immolate:Aquired from boss #4, Immolate works like both Fury and Berserk,

accept instead of dealing physical blows it kills the enemy highlighted

instantly.



6.Strategy Guide

Chapter One: The Slums "Welcome to Meridian"

After being awoken and talking with Umah you'll arrive at the training level.

It's referred to as the training level because the game tells you how to do

everything and you don't really need a strategy but I provide one anyways.



Umah introduces the vampiric whisper that will be used to convey much dialogue

for Kain. Just run forward past the first checkpoint. You can kill the citizens

around here but at this point it is worthless because you can't suck their

blood yet. Keep following the path until an in game cinema starts with Umah

telling you how to jump. Follow her directions to jump up to where she is to

invoke the next in game cinema where Umah teaches you how to float to the

ground. Float to the ground and then follow the path, jumping over the fence

and coming to a dead end where you have to throw a switch to be able to enter a

tunnel. Follow this path and you'll see Umah running and a gate close behind

you, this is where you learn how to open doors that are highlighted when

standing next to them. Open the door, cross the checkpoint and open the next

door and get ready to feed! From now on you are able to suck blood from the

dead. You also learn of vampire lore, a.k.a. the purple meter. Every time that

meter is filled(it is filled by lore boxes and sucking blood) it will increase

your blood meter. In the next area you have to suck the chained person on the

wall to increase your lore(when he screams and glows with red fire) in order

for the lever at the end of the hallway to operate. From now on, kill

everything you see and suck there blood. Even if you're blood meter is full it

will still fill the lore meter. Continue following the path to the next check

point where Umah will inform you of how vampires can be killed by water(hint:

don’t jump in it) and the lore chests. Suck them like you would a human to fill

your lore bar. Aside from the one Umah was standing next to, there is one to

the right of it behind a house. Continue on the path going toward the green

barrier. Umah will tell you how you can't walk thru it because it hurts you.

Now follow Umah into the sewer and cross the checkpoint to initiate combat

training. The first part is blocking, whether it is assisted or skilled just

block for a while till the next phase of training begins. You will then learn

how to attack and grab in similar fashions. Umah will tell you to continue thru

the sewer so do like she says till the next checkpoint. Pull the switch there

to drown out the water in the pit in order to get to the next side and continue

following the path. And here it is your first battle! It is a common thug, the

weakest enemy of the game. Also the game informs you of how to use the dark

gift of Fury. Finish him off, suck his blood, grab his weapon, and continue

down the path taking a left at the fire to find a lore chest. Do a 180 and go

in that direction following the path to the graveyard where you learn about

your next dark gift, Mist. Kill the thug and citizen that dwell here then run

behind that big memorial in the back to find another lore chest. Now head in

the direction Umah ran off where you will learn how to pick up weapons and use

a weapon box. Continue the path killing citizens until Umah tells you how about

glyph energy. Before following her directions of using the switch run to the

right of it to kill the thug who would have hurt you while you used the switch.

Also to the right is another lore chest. Anyways pull the first switch which

will send that green glowing glyph energy to the next switch, which when pulled

will finally open the gate. Umah tells you about the Glyph Rights(a.k.a. the

blue cloaked guys with metal mouth-pieces). Run across the checkpoint in the

tunnel to your next area. There is a lore chest on the left, a thug killing a

citizen in front, and further ahead a lore chest in a field of mist for you to

stealth kill in. Before heading to higher ground follow the path thru the mist

to a switch that is needed to be pulled. Now climb to higher ground, ala the

bridge that the citizen-attacking-thug ran out from under it, and follow that

path to yet another switch needing to be pulled. Run thru the newly open

passage to the check point in the mist field. Now before you stealth kill the

next guy, first you have to turn off the steam vents that would have hurt you

brining you out of mist form and alerting the thug to your presence. So look

for a valve to your right to turn and proceed with the killing. Run down the

stairs to the left of you and after reaching the bottom, turn completely around

and run toward the fire you see(not in the fire because that hurts, I mean its

just common since). Near there is another lore chest but don't suck it up right

away because a thug is coming for you. Take him out, suck the lore chest, and

run in the direction he came from in order to take on more thugs. After they're

all dead you meet Umah again and she'll tell you about Sanctuary. In the

cinema, you and Umah will be separated. When its over, run forward into thru

the doorway right in front of you killing a thug near a ladder. Climb up the

ladder and run into the dead end to find a lore chest. Go back to where the

ladder left you and to your right(or if you just climbed the ladder, your left)

jump up on a shack to find a new check point. Follow the path jumping down on

roof tops till you reach a dead end where you have to jump across a big

distance to get to the next rooftop. Before you jump across, jump down into the

alley and take out another thug. Climb back up the ladder and jump across.

Follow the path here to find a new weapon, the dagger, and once again jump

across to a new ledge with a door to open. Go thru the door and the game will

tell you how to move boxes. Pull the box in that room once in any direction and

go thru the door it was blocking. Follow the path and go into the only open

doorway you see there, before using the elevator, look to the right of it to

find another lore chest. Now go down the elevator, find a thug to kill down

here(near the fire)and pull a switch opening a previously inaccessible area

above. Take the elevator back up and jump down into that area. Follow the path,

killing citizens and thugs you come across, and at the end find a switch

puzzle! Its very simple, just pull the switch to open the gate, then pull the

crate under the gate, then pull the switch again. Run thru this tunnel and the

final in game cinema of the level will ensue. You'll meet your contact, he'll

tell you to go thru smuggler's tunnel. And all the while a mysterious figure,

obviously not human(by the way he jumped twenty feet distance), listening in to

your conversation.



Chapter Two: The Den "Creatures of the Night"

Kain starts off in an area filled with citizen which you can happily kill.

Anyways from where you start off, follow the path crossing over the check point

and take the first right at the end of this path is a lore chest and a switch

to pull. Pull the switch and follow the green glow of its path to a valve you

have to turn to open a gate. Near the gate though however is a new thug that

wasn't there before, so kill him and proceed to go through the gate. In this

new area turn to mist as soon as possible or you'll be shot by the new enemy,

the thief. Quickly stealth kill the two thieves here and proceed up the ladder

in the blue area. Go thru the door, turn right at the check point and go down

the stairs on your left. There's a lore box near the lamp post. Continue down

the path killing the three thugs you come across. Pull the switch at the end of

the path and return to the checkpoint at the beginning of this area. Don't go

back thru the door but go down the path you ignored earlier to cross the bridge

you just released. Go thru the door, down the stairs, thru the hall to run into

a thief. Turn the only valve you can in the room to open a path to a lore chest

to drain. Go back and run past the closed off area up the stairs to fight yet

another thief. Once this deed is done, look for a switch in that room to pull.

Go back downstairs to the previously closed area, turn the valve to open it,

pull the switch in their, and use the weapon box if you have a weapon. Now go

back upstairs, out the door pulling a switch to turn off the glyph gate. Go to

mist form in the mist cloud up ahead and take out the two thugs. Drain the lore

chest to the left of where you offed the thugs and then continue back on you

path. You'll reach another mist area with two thieves, stealth kill them like

usual and continue on your way. Open the gate with the valve, turn all misty,

stealth kill the thief, and just take the thug out the regular way you would.

Follow the path to the check point next to the tavern you can enter. Kill the

four citizens lurking about and head up the stairs in order to meet another

contact. After hearing what he has to say there is no rule saying you can't

kill him so take action! At the top of the stairs you'll have to kill a thug

and then pull back a book case hiding a passage. Once thru, kill the thief here

and then run down the stairs and out the door. Follow the path taking out the

two thugs you come across. In this area is a box you can move, push it toward

the chain link fence you see, you can't push it all the way forward but it is

close enough to where you can jump off of it over the fence landing on the next

check point. Drain the lore chest, follow the path, kill the thug, and once

again follow the path to the church. At the church is another mist field and

you get to kill your first Sarafan Guard. Stealth kill him, and then take out

his friend on the other side of the church. Once they're both dead, in the area

where the second one was, jump up on the crates and climb up the church, over

the plank into a chamber with an elevator. Go down and follow the tunnel system

till you come upon the mysterious eavesdropper from earlier talking to a glyph

right. Anyways follow the path over deadly water till you're blocked by a steam

vent, turn it off with the valve next to it. As soon as you go thru the path

look to the left and go thru the door to find both a lore chest and weapon

chest, use them and go back on the path. You'll come across an area where a

citizen will close a gate because he can see you. No matter, just run to the

small alcove in front of you and hit the switch to open it again. Before going

back though, turn to mist form so he can't see you and close the gate again.

Also, why waste perfectly good mist? Stealth kill the guard here and if the

citizen wonders into the mist, kill him in the same way. Now before trying to

get thru the next door and be infuriated with the citizens on the other side

who immediately close it, go to the left to find three switches connected to

steam vents. After pulling all three, go back to the door and to the right of

it on a pipe is a valve that when turned will burn to death those pesky humans

and you're now free to open the door. Run into the next portion of the room,

throwing the switch to open the door, and into the mist field for another guard

stealth kill. Now you are right above where the eavesdropper was talking before

but there is no need to jump down to where he was, instead go around to a

tunnel entrance to follow. At the end pull the switch and enter the gaseous

chamber. You want to go into that pit in the middle but because of the steam

you can't get near it. So climb up the ladder and pull the first switch you

see. This switch makes the steam guarding the door on the left guard the ladder

you'll need to climb next. Anyways go thru that doorway by pulling yet another

switch and kill the guard. Run past the steam filled ladder, pull another

switch(be careful because the door it opens doesn't stay open very long) and

run through the door pulling the first switch which will make the steam go back

to the door on the left freeing the ladder. Quickly run back thru the time

released door before it closes and go up the ladder. Pull the switch and

descend back to the pit you first tried to get into. The only thing in the

place where you land is a checkpoint up on a bridge leading to your first

boss!!!!



Boss#1

The eavesdropper from before turns out to be a former comrade of Kain's turned

betrayer, Faustus. After hearing his little argument you'll turn to a good ol'

fashion street brawl. In this fight he'll do jumping kicks, flip to avoid your

attacks, and combos. During the combos, block to build up your fury and use

that to help destroy him. Also during his combos, usually after three hits you

can interrupt with your own combo. Be careful when he flips back glowing red,

its his unblockable attack which you should dodge. After enough hits he'll run

away to the next chamber, follow him switching you dark gift to mist. In this

room Faustus will jump between four furnaces hurling flaming exploding chemical

beakers at you. The object is to pull the lever on the furnace he is on in

order to burn him. However, even though it can be done, just running up to the

furnace doesn't always work because he'll see you and jump away. So instead use

the mist on the floor to sneak up on him. But wait the mist isn't everywhere so

you'll have to start at certain points. Three of the furnaces mist trails start

to the right of them in a corner, and one's starts in the middle of the room.

After burning him several times, the mist will disappear and he'll jump to the

ceiling and start running around up there periodically jumping down in order to

do a jump kick towards you. Here I ran along the sides of the room with the

camera facing inward the room, and every time Faustus came down to jump at me I

was out of the way and ran back to beat up his dizzy self after hitting a wall.

After taking enough hits, he dies and starts talking with Kain. Kain then seems

to assimilate his soul and gains the new dark gift jump.



Exit thru the only opening and use your new dark gift to jump across the

bridge. To the left is the famed smuggler's tunnel right next to a fire. Go

thru and the level is completed!



Chapter Three: The Lower City "In Darkness we gather"

Upon the beginning of this level you meet Umah again. She informs you that

you're just a stones throw away from sanctuary. Also that you are to go to the

red raven pub.



First go straight forward killing two guards that might attack you. Also there

is a secret lore chest in a building in the left corner at the end of the

street. There is a huge red sign hanging in front of it. Anyway, go back the

way you came and on the right is a lore chest next to two conversing citizens.

After disposing of them, take a right up the stairs and follow it to a

ledge(game direction telling you how to jump should come up) and d.g. jump

across. Jump down into the ally past the checkpoint and go misty to kill a

thug. There are two other thugs in the facility so kill them too. After they're

dead, go down the ally near the end of the mist trail. Run up the stairs to the

left of the ally's exit and near the gate to find out that you need clearance

to get thru there. The area you are in now(between two glyph gates) contains

guards on either ends so take care of them. Anyways back to getting clearance.

Run down the end of the street toward the other gate, at the end you can see

the Red Raven Pub you were told to go to. Approach the bar maiden and she'll

tell you what to say in order to have clearance to the gated off area. Go back

and pass thru the gate, killing that jerk who didn't let you thru in the first

place, and following the path like usual. Off the two thugs you come across and

come to the next street area, adjoined to the previous one but cut off by the

glyph gates. There are 3 guards here for you to kill along with some citizens.

Once you've disposed of them climb the tall structure in the middle of the area

to find a lore chest. After draining it, d.g. jump across to a platform with a

broken ladder hanging down from it. Pull the switch there and follow the pipes

the glyph energy flows thru to find the next switch you have to pull which

opens a door. After entering the door you'll see a glyph pedestal thing to the

left of you, pull it out(it closes the door) and start dragging it towards the

area you saw the glyph right vanish. Pull out the broken glyph pedestal and

replace it with the glowing one. Before activating it look thru the area for a

spiked club if you need a weapon and a lore chest. Now go look for a switch in

the green glowing room, after the glyph energy travels all the way to the next

switch pull it and go to the checkpoint in the next room. Here, jump out the

window and follow the path, once again learning you need a password to enter an

area. So continue the path, taking out two thugs along the way. In the next

area, you're on a street again with two guards. In this area, there are two

doors you can open but the lead nowhere and contain no items. Anyways the

password you need is held by a man in a stand at the end of an ally near the

other of the two guards mentioned. After getting the password proceed back to

near where you originally came out on this street, jump up on the second level

of the street and follow the path to switch operated gate. Go through take a

left, give the guy the password, kill the guy, and be on your way. In the next

room is three morsels chained to the wall and a sword for your pleasure. Climb

up the ladder and use you're d.g. jump to get to the check point and lore box

across the roof top. Once again, d.g. jump and this time go misty to take out

two thugs up ahead. When their dead and drained follow the path and jump down

into a new area to kill two more thugs. after they're dead(did you see the

graffiti on the wall ‘No freedom under Sarafan rule')pull the lever and ascend

to higher ground again. This time d.g. jump across to the switch you just

activated. Thru the doors is a thug ready to be killed. Afterwards just follow

the path thru the office, down the stairs, thru the crates, up the stairs, and

kill another thug. Pull the switch in this room to drop a crate on the floor

making a hole for you to go into the sewers. Check the area you drop down in

for another lore chest then follow the path like always. You'll run into two

more thugs who like always are no huge threat. Don't pull the switch you see

just yet. Now go around to the left corner and into the building to find a box

next to a switch. Pull that switch and go out of this area. Jump up onto the

ledge the box is and pull it out as far as you can, go back to where you first

pulled the switch and push the box down onto the triangle catwalk and pull the

box back as far as you can. Don't push it to the end because that’s to far.

Once its there, pull the switch next to it to make a small lift bring the box

up a flight. Before you go after it push the triangle catwalk so it isn't in

its original position. now climb the ladder you see by it and get ready to

fight two more thugs again. After killing them, push the box forward twice in

order for it to fall thru the floor(otherwise it would of landed on the catwalk

again). Down here follow the path and kill the two thieves you run into. The

stairs that one of them runs down from has a lore chest at the top. Continue on

the path again, picking up a dagger if you need one. When you come across a

ladder go to the left and turn the valve to flood the area. Next use your d.g.

jump to get to the now floating piece of wood allowing you to access a new

ladder.

[Italiano medio]

. When you come up there are two guards to take out right away. After

they're dead follow the road some more killing a thug and two more guards.

There are two doors you can open here. One is like the one you opened at the

beginning of the game with nothing in it, and one is a small shop opposite the

empty building, but it holds a lore chest. Anyways after getting all that and

killing the guards pull a switch and follow the green glow out of this area.

Well you're back in the sewers again so do like normal and follow the path

taking out two more thugs you come across. Continue on your way ignoring a path

to the left and going into a room that’s half flooded. At the entrance turn

right and climb up the ladder there. You'll arrive in an area with several

killed citizens but you didn't kill them (dun dun dunnnnn). Anyways feed off of

those free meals and jump up on the roof of the central structure. Kill the

thug there and push the box off the edge. Now you're back where you started,

leave the box there for now and run across the bridge. Pull the switch there

that opens the gate and quickly run back to the other side to push your block

in place to hold it open. Go to the previously ignored area(the left you

skipped) and turn the valve in that room. Run quickly thru the flooded room

because it will fill up again soon. Once thru there run up a couple flights of

stairs, thru a switch gate, and find a gang war of thugs. You can let them duel

it out and kill the victors. Once they're disposed of, look for another switch

gate and go thru it. Here you are introduced to your first GLYPH GUARD!!!!! You

don't face him now but he calls for you two guards to kill and he's kind enough

to set off an alarm in his area which release many more guards for you to

kill(so its a good thing he set off the alarm). Anyways ascend to higher ground

in your area and use d.g. to jump from place to place(picking up a lore chest

along the way) all the way until you're in glyph guards place. Take him out,

his guard, and the three guards that come out of the building next to the

alarm. After everyone is dead, open the valve gate and follow the street to an

ally pat the screams coming out of the city reformatory. In the ally go to mist

and carefully sneak up and kill the thug that awaits you. Go thru the valve

gate and find a murder massacre (a.k.a. free meal) waiting for you, along with

a vampire who sounds like he has a lot of mucus in his throat. He runs off and

you have to follow him, not chase after him, follow him. So feel free to drain

any corpses you find lying about. After doing one super jump you'll have to

fight a thug. Do one more super jump and you get to talk to the mysterious

vampire I call flemy. After he jumps away, continue onward jumping down into a

new area. Here you can open the door to a book depository but once again its

pointless. anyways, kill the guard you find going down the stairs and the two

thugs at the end of the street. In the area you fight the two thugs(at the end

of the street) thru one of the glyph gates you can see a lore box. Just jump on

the crates to the right of the gate to jump over the gate to the lore box. now

go down into the sewer and pull the switch you find there. Jump into the pit

and run to the right and jump out to find a box you can move. Push it into the

pit and then position it to be where the catwalk once was. once in position go

to the pipe reaching down from the ceiling and turn the valve on it to float

the box. Now jump back across the now flooded pit(be careful!) pull the switch

to secure the box on the cat walk. Go back and turn the valve so you can push

the box across the catwalk onto a weighted trigger in order to lift a gate. Go

thru that gate and pull the switch turning off all glyph gates. Go back to the

main street and up the newly open walk way. Before going into Blue Lady Curios,

follow the catwalk some more to find another lore chest. Afterwards go into

Curios and follow the path to sanctuary. And wow you get to meet the leader!



Chapter 4: The Upper City "A Question of Faith"

OoOoO Kain has some new cloths, very stylish with the skull shoulder pads.

Anyways just run strait thru the tunnel. When you come out to the left is a

citizen running down an ally to his death by a thugs hand in a mist field and

to the left is two guards. So since the citizen and thug are busy, take out the

two guards. Now go take out the thug in the mist field and continue along that

path. What another familiar face, and not sounding like he has a cold? Marcus,

the former ally that Kain tried to assassinate in his past, learns of your plan

to seek the bishop. Now you're in a race to get to him and to slow you up,

Marcus sends his priest cronies after you. Dispatch of them and go thru the

valve gate. Follow the passage, and once again Marcus sends cronies after you.

Go down and up the stairs right in front of you ignoring the set on the left.

At the top of the stairs kill those two priests and follow the path to a third.

In that room turn the valve to position a bridge for you to cross via the

stairs you ignored earlier. Once in the chamber, turn the valve again to

reposition the bridge to get to the other side. Upon reaching the other side,

head right to get a lore chest and go in the opposite direction to get in some

mist kills on two thugs. Continue on the path, climbing up the stairs, and see

Marcus tell the guards to kill you. Go thru valve gate killing two guards in

the mist field. Follow the street to the end killing the one guard there. To

the left of the dead end is a passage opened by the switch next to it, and

another one just like it on the other side. Immediately after going thru you're

attacked by a thief, even though there is a mist field there it is hard to get

a stealth kill. There is another thief lurking about who you can lure into the

mist field or just kill any other way. Follow the path to the dead end with the

broken ladder and movable block. Move the block under the ladder and climb it

and the next one too. On the roof you'll find a thief in the middle of a heist,

kill her and her accomplice in the house. Before leaving thru the valve balcony

make sure to get the lore box in the room. Use you d.g. jump from the balcony

to get to the open windows across the way. Kill the two guards in here and

infuse one of their weapons you took in the weapon box in the same room. Once

that’s done, run down the stairs and out the door. Go through yet another valve

gate and continue down the street killing a glyph guard and stealth killing two

normal ones. Now go through the switch door the two guards were protecting and

go thru another door inside. Pull the switch there to send out some glyph

energy and then go thru the valve gate behind you to be back on the street. Now

turn misty so a guard you'll run into won't see you and close a gate you're

trying to get thru. So in mist form open the gate supplied by glyph energy,

then sneak up on the guard and stealth kill him. Proceed thru the next switch

gate and turn off the water to the left with the valve there. Proceed to the

opposite side of the area to take out a glyph guard. Run up the stairs kill

another glyph guard, d.g. jump across to the area where you turned off the

water. Go to mist form and kill the unsuspecting guard in the area. After he's

dead, hit the valve near the fountain, clearing a path down below. Go through

this path, past the valve gate, to find a lore chest and be attacked by three

sneaky thugs. Continue on the path thru the door to a courtyard. Pull the

switch you first come across and you get to see how there not only is a glyph

guard right in front of you but the door you need open is closed. Go take care

of the enemy and then on the side opposite the hanging box turn the valve

between the two statues in order to move the water from one statue to the other

now jump in the unflooded area and pull the switch. Now go to the other side

turning the flood valve there, and the newly powered switch in the unflooded

area. Pulling it drops the box which you need to move, so pull the flood valve

again and move the box in the corner near where you entered in order to block

that gate from closing and be able to enter the area you closed off earlier. Go

thru yet another valve gate into an area with two glyph guards and mist

everywhere. After they've been taken care of go into the clock tower as

instructed by Vorador. In there, move the block once in any direction and climb

the stairs. Ignore the first switch you sea and instead use the valve next to

the huge bag. Now go back and use the switch. This opens a gated area outside

containing one glyph guard (you know how to take care of him). Continue on the

path and go up an elevator. Once it reaches the top, d.g. jump across to an

open window. As soon as you go thru one doorway look the left to find a lore

box. Go down the stairs taking out the glyph guard at the bottom and then

proceeding onto the next area. Another mist field adorned with a glyph guard to

kill. Follow the path till you see two chambers with a caged off glyph

pedestal. Climb up the ladder next to it and through the valve up there. Jump

back down the hole you came out of and move the glyph pedestal to the other

chamber. Climb up the ladder there and throw the valve again. Now move the

pedestal and get ready to fight. Go thru the switch gate you just powered up

and take out the two glyph guards.

[Italiano medio]

Go thru the door in the other gated off

area, killing another glyph guard. Proceed up the stairs, go thru another door,

and be in another street area. Stealth kill the three guards here, drain the

lore chest, and enter the area right by the chest. Climb a ladder you find

there and then d.g. jump to the next open ledge. Go thru the door in order to

see a guard attack a citizen. Take him out and go thru the hall. At the end of

the hall go thru the door and get a guard stealth kill. Afterwards kill the

other two guards downstairs and go thru the door one was protecting. Run thru

the dining room and into the next to find your first knight. Take him out pick

up your first great ax. It slices, it dices, and it takes heads off with a

snap. Anyways once he's dead, one of the bishop’s servants will point you in

the bishop’s direction. Run that way, taking out one glyph guard, and then his

buddy who opens the gate for you. The gate that he opens leads to a priest

filled cemetery. Take out the solitary priest in the first area and look for a

moveable block to pull. Once pulled run thru the new passage and kill the five

priests running thru this mist filled area. Before heading underground at the

end of the path, turn around and adjacent from the opening leading underground

is a lore chest. Now go underground and push in the three dark blocks on the

wall to open a new door. Run up thru there killing two more priests and go for

another underground passage. This one leading right to the bishop! But what’s

this, Marcus has his mind in control? Well this doesn't suit you. Chase after

Marcus thru familiar streets from before. Climb up the sets of ladders, jump

across roof tops, and d.g. jump thru pane glass windows, anything to get

Marcus. When you finally catch him, you both fall thru the church roof and boss

fight #2 begins.



Boss Fight #2

Marcus can turn invisible so how do you kill him you ask? By pulling the

switches on either side of the church causing bells to ring, which for some

reason really hurt Marcus's ears. After hitting him enough time, Marcus will

send his priests to cut the bells so they can no longer be activated by the

switches and then he runs upstairs. Now not only do you have to fight Marcus,

but his priests as well, and these priests have cross bows. Marcus can still go

invisible though and you can't use the bells with the switch so how do you kill

him? Go upstairs and jump into the bells. Then climb upstairs and you'll see

good ol' visible Marcus just waiting to be killed. Once he is dead, you'll get

the ability Charm.



The bishop is back to normal and he's going to help ya rescue Umah, Hurrah!



Chapter Five: The Sarafan Keep "House of my Enemy"

Uh oh, the Sarafan Keep, that must mean we've seen the last of thugs and

thieves. Well thugs at least. But don't worry, soon you'll have new enemies,

maybe not this level, but soon.



Ok, back to business, follow the guard onto the mist field and stealth kill

him. Next run up to a window and get your first lesson in brain washing(a.k.a.

charm). Anyways charm the guy into opening the door for you and return the

favor by killing him. Follow the passage and get ready to stealth kill a guard.

Run into the next room and you'll find a weapon chest. Now go back to the

hallway and turn the valve shutting off steam. Follow the path the steam was

blocking and kill the guard down the stairs. Jump down to the lower area of

this room and move the glyph pedestal that's there next to the round barrel so

it’s between the barrel and the machine. Now go to the other side of the

machine and hit the switch there to load the machine up with fuel. Now go to

the upper level and hit the switch that turns on the machine blowing up a new

path for you. Follow the new path down a hallway killing one of the last

several thieves you see in the game. Follow the path and go right up the stairs

to find a lore chest. Go down the other staircase and turn to mist. Go thru the

switch door and watch as the guards take out the last of the thieves(this is

where you are supposed to cry). You can't really get a stealth kill right here

because the mist doesn't go to that area. But following the mist to the other

place a guard and thief are fighting you can stealth kill whoever won that

fight. In that area there is also a switch you need to throw so throw it and go

back to the main room. Go thru the switch door and get ready for some stealth

killing. You have two guards and a citizen all walking thru the mist. You know

what to do. Anyways at the end of the mist take a left to find a lore chest.

Head in the opposite direction and jump down to the left into another field of

mist. Sneak behind the guard there for a stealth kill. Head in the opposite

direction again, jumping across running water to fight a glyph guard.

Introducing a new tactic: Don't have a decapitating weapon but want to finish

off the fight quick and still be able to feed afterwards? Well look no further

then the throw the enemy into the water so he drowns tactic. Here’s the, I

think the only place in the game where you can drown an enemy and then later

drink his blood. This also works on crevices and canyons. You can throw the

enemy off of something anywhere in the game but like I said earlier it’s best

to feed afterwards. Anyways back to the strategy guide. Now that the glyph

guard is dead climb up the ladders he was protecting and turn off one of the

water valves. From this catwalk d.g. to the next one on your right and turn off

the second water valve. Now jump off and walk to the third catwalk. From the

ground below, charm the guy on there and have him turn off the valve. Now jump

where the water used to be, thru a tunnel, and get ready to fight a glyph guard

when you get out. Continue down this passage thru a switch door and even though

there is a hallway full of mist, it’s a glyph guard you're trying to kill at

the end of it so I say just fight him from the get go. Now that he's dead, go

thru the door he was protecting. Turn to your left and kill the guard walking

along that pathway. At the end you'll see a ladder to the right that you can

jump to. Climb up it and turn the valve there. Jump down to the other side and

go in the middle chamber to pull the switch opening the door. Leave and kill

the guard to your right. Jump down one level and go into one of the open cell,

it contains a lore chest. Now work your way up back to where that ladder was

that you just climbed and turn that valve again. Now you are able to go thru

the newly opened door. Go thru and ride up the elevator. In this room there is

a weapon chest and an adjoined room with a switch you must pull. It unlocks the

door in the hallway next to you. Go thru it and you'll see a knight waiting to

be stealth killed. After killing him be sure to grab his great ax even though

you can't decapitate most of the enemies because they are knights, it’s just

that it’s an all around good weapon. Anyways kill the other guard in this room

and then charm the person he was talking too. With him walk around the balcony

and turn off one of the glyph gates. Return to your body and go to that

previously inaccessible area. Here you'll find several portraits depicting the

Sarafan Lord's triumph over Kain and two knights, one at the entrance and one

in a mist field down stairs. Kill both and then go up the stairs right of the

pool. Here instead of help you get a request. You now have to go back to the

mist field in the mural hallway to kill a guy in green and another knight. Once

this is done you can go down the hallway the lady was in. Here you kill yet

another knight and at the end of the hallway ride up an elevator. At the top is

another knight to kill(I know, its getting old by now) and in one of the rooms

is a lore chest. Look for the broken balcony and d.g. jump across to the other

one. To the left is a switch that lowers a ladder encase you fall and need to

get back up later. Anyways follow the balcony, d.g. jump across the mural

hallway and now you’re where you first charmed that one guy. Kill the knight

here and then walk around the balcony till you find a switch door leading to

another room. Follow the path to find a group of six knights lounging about 5

leave the room and only two stay in the next room. Jump down and kill the

solitary knight. Pull the switch near the door and climb up the ladder near the

fireplace. Once on the balcony go thru the previously inaccessible doorway.

Jump down in the next room and kill two more knights. Ride up the elevator and

get ready to turn misty. Well not yet. First climb up the stairs to your right

and pull a switch to open the door to the place where you get misty. Go thru

the hall and stealth kill the guard there. Take out the knight in the library

ahead and then go up to its balcony pulling the switch up there to reveal a

pathway behind a set of books. Go thru and charm the citizen to open the gate

for you. Run up the stairs to find a lore chest and jump back down and go thru

the new passage and kill the guard at the end of the hall. Go thru the switch

door and you get to see your first GLYPH KNIGHT. One of his guards will go into

the mist field for an easy kill. Now just kill the Glyph Knight and other guard

and you're almost done with this level. Look on the side of the building and

throw the valve there, enter the building thru the switch door. Ahhh! It’s Umah

but she's trapped behind a glyph gate that you just turned on by turning the

valve. Well while you're in there pull back the one statue you see to reveal a

secret entrance. Go back around to the side and pull turn the valve. Go back to

Umah's cell and enjoy the next in game cinema.



Chapter 6: The industrial Quarters "The Nexus Stone"

Ok, so you snuck into the industrial Quarters, now what? Follow the path like

I’ve been telling you for five chapters. Once you make it to the end, turn the

valve and go back to the first room you were in. Pull that switch and go back

to turn the valve. Now go thru the door you opened with the switch. Go up the

stairs, kill the knight, drain the lore chest, and throw the switch for the

door. Follow the path upstairs into the next room. Here throw a switch to fight

the lady replacing the thief, a more scantly clad woman with a long sword(from

now on, no more naming new enemies). Anyways throw a switch, climb a ladder,

drain a lore chest, open a door, and proceed to the next in game cinema. Take

out the two women on the bridge then jump down. On the floor level there is

another woman guarding a switch that needs to be pulled. Kill her and pull the

switch. Afterwards you'll need to start your ascent so look in the area to the

right of the switch for a ladder to climb. Here you'll find a dual-bladed

staff, second to last new weapon. Grab it if you want. And d.g. jump across to

the huge stack of crates. D.g. jump across to the next stack, drain the lore

chest, climb the stack of crates even higher, and finally d.g. jump back to

where you’re first started the level. Go to the end of the bridge and throw the

switch. There are two men with cutlasses in here so kill them. The room to the

left has a switch you need to throw. Once thrown follow the mist trail to the

door it opens and ride the elevator style platform down. Kill the two women in

this room and then descend to the area below. Throw all four switches in each

corner and climb the ladder back up. Go to the side opposite the ladder and

pull the switch there to activate the machine below. Ride the conveyer belt

into the next room but jump off quickly to avoid falling to your death. Grab

the lore chest and proceed thru the doorway to see a neat explosion. Kill the

two men running at you and go to where they came from. Pull the switch on the

upper floor to activate your traveling vessel and proceed thru the door to jump

in it and take a ride. Jump off and climb the ladder to the right. Run down

this path kill the enemy there and climb another ladder. Turn left at the top

and run down another path killing two enemies on your way. At the end go thru

the switch door and up yet another ladder. To your right are two knights to

dispose of along with a lore chest. Run down the end pulling several switches

to ride up an elevator. Go thru the door at the top and get two stealth kills

in the upcoming mist field. Ride down the lift at the end of the path. Follow

this path to a lore chest and two glyph guards. At the end of the path jump to

the left into a tunnel. Follow this path till the end where there is an enemy

waiting for you and a door to go thru. Run thru the passages killing the glyph

guard that gets in your way. In the room with the big machine take a left and

throw a switch opening the machine which you must go thru. Follow the path

stealth killing two enemies and one glyph guard. Go thru the door and in this

room stand far away from the window while facing it. Charm one of the people

inside and have them throw the switch to one of those explosive spheres. Jump

through and go into the tunnel, taking a right at the junction to find a lore

chest. Go back to the regular path and eventually you'll see a familiar face.

Its flemmy, he warns the guards of your presence. Charm a person thru the

window to open the door for you then kill the two hostiles in the room. Go thru

the door at the end of the room, turn right and charm the person you see there.

Have them throw the switch and return to your body. Go thru this machine like

you did the one earlier and turn to mist. Stealth kill the two guards that you

run into and go thru the door one was guarding.

[Italiano medio]

Before using charm on the

person to your right first make a path for them by throwing the switch by the

window. Now charm them and have them go thru the machine and open the machine

on your side. Kill the two enemies in this room then go to where your

previously charmed human was to find a lore chest. Go thru the next to doorways

and once again turn to mist. Don't kill them just yet. Follow the mist field to

the next room where you can charm someone thru the window to set off explosions

killing all of them. Jump onto the elevator at the end of the path, ride it up,

and get in one stealth kill right away. Go to mist form again and follow the

mist field to the left to kill another enemy. The rest of the enemies in here

are two glyph guards so don't bother with stealth on them. After they're dead

go up the stairs to kill another enemy and drain another lore chest. Pull the

lever next to the chest and go thru the door you open below it. Charm the first

person you see and have them pull the switch in their room you can even have

them pull the switch in the next room. Return to your body and go through the

newly opened paths. Charm another guy in the next room and have him throw the

switch by the window. Return to your body and run back to the first room you

entered. Run through the machine and kill the enemy on the other side. Throw

the rest of the switches in here to activate the carts in order to get to the

next elevator. Follow the carts path and ride the elevator up. You can turn the

valve to the left of you when you leave the elevator but I'm not sure if it

does anything. Anyways go right of the elevator, up the stairs and take out the

two enemies up there. Push the barricade near the flame onto the track and pull

the barricade off of the track near the cart. Once both are out of the way,

pull the switch near the cart to set off another explosion. Run through the new

tunnel and take out the enemy and glyph guard you run across. Next d.g. jump

over the ravine to take out another enemy. Afterwards follow the path strait,

not turning at the intersection and getting the lore chest in that room. Go

back to the turn you skipped and run through it till you get to a circle dial

that raises you to the nexus stone. AHHHH! Its flemmy, but it turns out to be

your former friend Sebastian. I smell a boss fight coming on.



Boss Fight #3

Sebastian’s fights like Faustus does at first. However there is steam coming

from the sides that can hurt both of you. Defeat him like you did Faustus until

he starts running around the walls. Hear you'll want to continuously move

counter clockwise with your camera pointing inward. Counter clockwise because

the steam moves that way as well and you don't want that to kill you huh?

Anyways every time you see Sebastian stop on the wall, line him and the center

purple hurricane stuff together in your line of sight and he'll jump into it

trying to attack you, after he misses a couple of times he'll try to destroy

the nexus stone. Jump up on the platform and charm his friend in the control

booth. Have him pull the switch on the right to fill the chamber with steam

forcing Sebastian to fight like he first did. Anyways here just fight him like

you did in the first place till he's dead. Afterwards you get the dark gift

berserk.



Chapter Seven: The Canyons "Wild Places"

The level starts off with a change of clothing for Kain to a new cloak and

dagger type thing and tells you how to use berserk. Jump down and kill the

knight you saw in the cinema. Go up the hill to the left of the gate, using the

lore chest at the base of it first, and follow the path to a mist field with

two enemies to kill. Continue on the path killing one more enemy along the way.

After this enemy is dead jump up a couple of ledges and run through a tunnel to

an opening. Jump down and run toward the two enemies near the fire. Once

they're disposed of charm the man inside the mill and have him climb the stairs

pulling the switch at the top. Return to your body and run up the stairs to the

right of the mill. Push the crate at the top in position to jam the gate the

next time you have that man pull the switch. So have him pull the switch again

and ride the little ferris wheal to the left of the mill jumping on the ledge

behind you as you go up. Follow this path, jumping over pools of water(to be on

the safe side you should use d.g. jump). Once you’re as far as you can go d.g.

jump to the lore chest on top of the scaffolding. Jump all the way down inside

that building killing the enemy at the bottom and also using the lore chest

there too. Climb back up the stairs and make use of door connecting to this

prison type room with a knight in it along with prisoners. Kill the knight and

continue on your way to the last room. Run down the flights of stairs to the

bottom. Pull the switch to open the main gate and then exit thru the double

doors. Pass through the gate you just opened and follow the passage to fight

two enemies while a knight runs off to a mist field. Kill these two enemies and

stealth kill the knight. Go into the building near where the night was and

climb the stairs to the top to flip a switch. At first it will set off an alarm

but this is good if you want to build up lore. Another knight runs into the

mist field. Stealth kill him then head to the controls near the alarm. Turn the

valve to open the gate and run on thru. Watch out for falling debris because it

can hurt you. You'll eventually come up to a cart being robbed by two bandits

wielding small axes, kill them and continue on. You'll see a cinema of a bandit

cutting down a bridge so you have to d.g. jump across the water to kill her.

Keep on running thru the tunnel, avoiding more debris, until Kain jumps out of

the caved in tunnel in the nick of time. Follow the pathway killing anyone

getting in your path. The enemies may very because they are fighting up ahead

near the stage coach. Anyways after all the fighting jump on the stage coach

and d.g. jump across to the lore chest. From there climb upward following the

path and d.g. jumping to a mist field. Here go for two bandit stealth kills.

Follow the path into a tunnel leading underground. Jump down the holes you come

across and when you hit the checkpoint get ready to go misty. Before you kill

the two you see ahead, go to the left behind the crates to find a lore chest.

Now go back and stealth kill them both. Follow the path between the crates

killing one more bandit, and go into the elevator. Ride it up and once again,

like always! Follow the path. Kill the one bandit in the area you arrive in.

Once he's dead climb up the various vehicles and jump toward the barred

windows. Charm the guy in the right most window to release his prisoner. Now go

to the next window and charm the prisoner. Have him run up the stairs, go thru

the doorway and send down a ladder. Climb up the ladder and hit the switch

right by it. Quickly race to the opened door before it closes. Go the right

after going down the stairs and go thru a switch door. Jump down at the end and

inspect the cart you see there. You'll get a cinema of the newest enemy, what

the game manual calls the beast demon, killing a knight. Kill the demon and

proceed down the path. From now on this level is made up of mostly beast

demons, knights, and beast demons killing knights. Just follow the dirty path

past the cart and creepy web things killing anything that gets in your way.

You'll eventually come across another gateway filled with chained up prisoners.

Past the gateway you'll see more beast demons killing knights so kill them and

be off on your way. Thru out the level you can find many chests near those

freaky spider webs. Anyways continue down the path killing two more beast

demons by a huge gate that won't open. Go thru the doors on the left and up the

stairway avoiding the flames at all costs. Go thru the door at the top and rush

down the stairs in the next room. Go thru the double doors at the bottom and

you'll be on the other side of the gate along with one beast demon. Turn the

valve near the gate once and then run up the right side of the house with the

man in it in order to be able to jump on top of the house. Once there d.g. jump

across to the lore chest and turn the other valve you see there. Now that

you've done that charm the man in the window and have him activate the cart.

Jump on the cart and follow it thru the tunnel to its destination. In this area

you'll find dead citizens lying about so feel free to help yourself to a drink.

Near one of the dead bodies is an operating booth for the crane in front of it.

Pull the lever on the left, then middle, right, and then middle. Run off in

that direction and turn the valve there. Pull the switch near the valve to open

the door in front of you. Go thru this door and then pull the valve on this

side. Quickly run to the corner of the conveyer belt behind you and get ready

to pull the switch when the boulder is about to hit the turn nearest you. Run

past the building that normally cut up the boulder and to the new cranes

operating panel. Pull the levers in the exact same order as before in order to

cause a huge explosion creating a new path.

[Italiano medio]

Follow this path killing beast

demons along the way. Follow the rails leading into the closed off mine. Take a

left and climb up the ledges and d.g. jumping across the pool of water to the

guys near the fire. Walk around the small trail leading to higher ground and

d.g. jump back across the water. Kill another beast demon and go thru the valve

gate. Kill the two beast demons you come across in this area and then proceed

to the right. You'll come across one of the more challenging puzzles of the

game. The double doors to the left won't open so you'll have to climb up the

scaffolding opposite them. At the top. D.g. jump across to the previously

inaccessible building. Go down a few flights of stairs till your far enough to

still be on the stairs but able to control the mans mind in the steal cage.

Have him throw the switch and quickly return to your body. Run up to where you

first entered this building and get ready to throw the valve so the glyph

energy will travel across the two buildings. Now d.g. jump back to the

scaffolding and wait for the glyph energy to get a few feet from you before

hitting the next valve for it to cross thru now head down to the lowest level

of the scaffolding and once again turn the valve when the glyph energy is a

couple of feet away from it. Follow the energy to the switch it activates and

pull it to turn off the glyph gate. In the next area you see a beast demon

fighting a knight. Let them kill each other and kill the victor. Continue on

the path until you come across an old hut guarded by a single beast demon. Kill

it and suck whatever is around the place and then proceed to enter the cabin.

Here you meet the seer and gain the dark gift of telekinesis. She then

transports you to the entrance of the device. Use your newfound talents to open

the green lock above the door before you. Run through the opening and tunnels

to a lift that leads to a freakish beast. It tells you where you need to go

next, and that is....



Chapter 8: The Eternal Prison "Bad Blood"

Run up the rocky path, d.g. jump across a ravine, and unlock the green lock.

You are now in the eternal prison and meet your new local enemy I call Wardens.

You also see big spiders who you too will later fight. Climb up the stair case

on the right and jump up onto the ledge on the left stair case. D.g. jump

across to the other side of the room and climb up a ladder only to d.g. jump

across back to the other side again. Picking up the dual-bladed staff and lore

chest, jump now to the door in the middle of the room. Fall in the hole there

and get ready to fight the first pair of many huge spiders. Go through the now

open doors and take out another spider. Look for the only opened cell and pull

the switch in there to lift the large metallic box from the hole you need to

drop thru. This switch also releases two more spiders to kill. After they're

dead jump down the hole and go after the small ax and lore chest to the right.

What?!?!?!??! You can't get them yet? Don't worry you'll get them in a short

bit. The warden transports you to a cell a few cells away from that room. Jump

up out of your whole and d.g. jump to the next cell island. Unlock the cell, go

in kill the spiders, unlock the other door in the cell, and then repeat for the

next cell island. After this island you get to fight your first warden. Once

he's dead you're back where you started next to the lore chest and small ax.

Use the switch like you saw the one warden do earlier. Go thru this newly

manifested doorway and down the stairs to find a broken stairway. Here rebuild

the stairs using the green lock thing to the right of them. Climb up the stairs

and go thru the dimensional doorway. You are now in a freaky floating island

part of the eternal prison. Jump to the middle island and throw the switch

inside to raise some stone platforms for you to escape on. Once thrown go

outside and jump on the first platform. These platforms go counter clockwise

and have half skeletons manifested to attack you. You should d.g. jump between

each platforms. At the top is another dimensional door like the one you passed

thru earlier. Jump thru it! In this new hallway a metal box will fall releasing

blind women with their mouths sewn shut to be attacked by spiders. After all

the fighting and killing, jump up onto the metal boxes and then d.g. jump to

the ledge on the opposite side. Pull the lever there to lower the next set of

boxes. Jump on them in order to jump to the tallest boxes and from there jump

to the tallest platform on the opposite side of the room. Use charm on the

blind lady in the middle window to let you into that hallway. Run through the

big chamber and use telekinesis to lower a set of boxes with blind ladies and

open the three spider cages. Kill all of them and then climb up to the next

level. Pull the switches to all the chambers which contain prisoners, weapons,

chests, or nothing. One contains a ladder that you must go up. At the top of

the ladder you have to charm another blind lady to pull the switch to release

you. Go around opening cells again and in one corner you can charm a lady into

opening another cell for you. Go up the ladder in her cell and pull the switch

at the top raising the metallic boxes up for you to use to jump up to the next

area. In the next area(populated densely by blind ladies) climb up the stairs

and charm one of the blind ladies to open another door for you, once in there

you'll be attacked by two wardens. Deal with them and continue on your path.

Open the next green lock and go thru the wide double doors and run forward.

You'll be attacked by another warden, kill him and activate the green lock

across the moat. Run across the newly constructed bridge and go to the back of

the green lock. Pull the switch there and then deactivate the lock to open the

door without shattering the bridge. Go thru that door and get ready for an in

game cinema. Some raving vampire looking gut up creature wearing a fiery back

pack kills two wardens and a throws a prisoner thru a window. Run thru the

break in the glasses and down the hallway and you'll automatically escape his

wrath! Jump to the side and go thru the only open doorway. Follow the passage,

kill the warden, and continue back on the path. You'll see backpack man again

raving like usual, just ignore him and continue on your way. The next room has

four switches that don't do anything except set up fiery traps for both you and

the two wardens you have to fight. After defeating the wardens go thru the door

that opens. Continue on your way, past the torture room, into the ceiling right

above backpack man and someone who you must charm. You can either go thru the

only other open door and descend behind steal bars to his level to take over

the blind ladies mind or you can do it from upstairs. Either way you still have

to throw a switch opening a door on the upper level. Run down this new passage,

across a bridge, see backpack man chase after you, and quickly activate the

green lock next to the bridge. Go thru the dimensional doorway and thru the

blind lady ridden hallways. You’ll eventually come across a warden but not

after a while of blind ladies. Continue down this path into a room with a huge

doom in the middle. D.g. jump to the center, turn around and activate the green

lock above where you just came from to recreate a bridge. Now go back to under

the green lock and pull the switch to move the bridge. D.g. jump back across to

the dome and run across the bridge into a room to fight a warden. Before

leaving look above the entrance to find another green lock. Activate it in

order to unblock an room you need to get to later. Go back to the switch that

moves the bridge and flip it twice. Now d.g. back to the dome, go into the new

room, and hit the switch to the right of the entrance. This will lower one of

the metallic triangles you should investigate. It turns out its the builders

prison cell and he tells you how to destroy his machine. Now the switch on the

dome is active. Pull it and watch as everything blows up. You are now back

where you originally first saw that dome, next to the small ax and lore box you

were transported away from. Go towards the only door you haven’t entered and

you'll be attacked by the two last wardens. Kill them and proceed thru the door

and next room but stop before going any further. In the next room there is a

blue circle on the floor that you have to jump over in order to go any further.

Afterwards you'll start to be chased by backpack man again. Run down the

corridor flipping the switch to the right of where you come out. Cross the

bridge, turn around and throw the switch on the other side to drown

backpackman,hurrah! Go thru the opening double doors into this next area and

get ready for a weird room. This room is like a maze without walls. However

there are spikes that rise out of the ground that tell you where to go

eventually you'll be closed off and you'll have to use telekinesis on a green

lock to free open a path. This happens later again accept the floor you're on

is slowly lowering into burning flames, so quickly free open a path and run!

Finally you emerge at



Boss #4

Backpack man, as crazy as he may be, has a powerful mind. Hide behind statues

or else he will blow you up. After the statue you are hiding behind blows up.

Move out of the way of debris and push him off his perch with telekinesis.

After enough hits he runs away. Follow him duh! In the next room its a bit

trickier to hurt him. Use telekinesis to infuriate him to charge at you. So

when you do this stand in front of one of the four sickles so he breaks it.

When the sickles are broken green locks appear and after operating all four

locks, you resurrect the statue of a familiar face. This is the final part of

the battle. Trick backpack man into running into the statues supporting cane

and then get him to hit the statue one more time and oops statue fall down on

back pack man killing him. Dun dun dun, you now realize this freak is a former

ally known as Magnus. And like all former allies, you seem to assimilate his

soul and get the new dark gift Immolate.

Chapter Nine: The Device "Into the Depths"

After conversing with the freakish beast you plunge into the depths to go after

the device.



Run Down thru the tunnels and you'll run into a glyph right....who turns out to

be a hylden!!!!! Kill him like you would any other enemy with blocks and

attacks. When its over, push the button to deactivate the door so you can walk

thru. Walk thru this large hallway being careful for the pincers on the side

which sometimes attack you. When your reach the bottom you'll find another

hylden to kill. Kill him and go thru the passage he came out of. D.g. jump

across to the other platform, jump thru the broken glass window and jump down

to the area below. There are two buttons down there that each open a door,

press both button but go thru the door that the hylden is in. After he is dead

uses your telekinesis to activate a green lock on the higher walls to lower an

elevator for you. Ride up this elevator and go into the passage it provides for

you. D.g. to the switch on the other side and activate it. Now go all the way

back to the original hallway, killing a demon beast along the way. Open the

door with the newly activated switch and proceed on thru. Don't go in the first

opening you see but go forward, kill a hylden in the mist field, and use the

small window down there to activate the green lock on the right side of the

room to release a person to charm. Go back to the previously ignored passage

and charm the person from there. Have them pull a switch for you to activate

the button near the closed door. Continue on some more down the hallway,

killing the demon beast, and chasing after the hylden that ran away. Kill him

and the demon beast in the next room and on the lower level pull a switch

activating a button on the upper level. Go to the upper level and charm the

human to press the button for you. After doing so you can cross the pistons in

the room to the next passage way. Go thru there and continue along another big

hallway. Where you see your first Hylden Warrior. Take him and his buddy out,

then d.g. jump across the pool of water. Turn around and activate the green

lock. Jump down into the formally flood pit and pull the switch activating the

button above. Jump back to the button and push it to open the door. Proceed

forward to the dead end and enter the passage way with a robot arm next to a

catwalk. Jump off the catwalk, kill the warrior down there, and pull the switch

to reposition the arm to take out the hylden above. Go back up on the catwalk

via the ladder and push the button to explode the hylden. Continue forward

stealth killing a hylden and warrior on your way. In the next area charm a

person into pulling another lever for you. Return to your body, jump thru the

broken glass window, and then jump to the newly opened passage way, trying to

avoid the water. Take out the warrior there and continue on your way. There

will be another warrior to kill on a transparent walkway. After he is dead look

down and activate a green lock to move crates blocking someone’s path who you

are about to charm. Charm this person and move them across the bridge and

deactivate the green lock to open up this new path for the person to charm.

Once again charm this person and make him throw a switch opening a door for

you. Continue on this path killing a beast demon and going after its hylden

creator at the bottom. In the next area, before jumping down, d.g. jump across

to a switch and pull it. Then jump down and kill the hylden below. D.g. jump to

the button that you just activated, and push it to drain the pool below. Jump

down into the former pool and pull back on the red pedestal to deactivate the

red barriers in the previous area(this also means you've freed a beast demon).

Kill the demon and run thru his chamber, killing another hylden, pressing

another button, and deactivating the yellow force fields. Go back to where you

first pulled the switch for the button that activates the pool(climb the ladder

and d.g. to it). Anyways go thru this former door to walk in on some freaky

hylden chrysalis holding chamber. Run through here jumping over and jumping

down to navigate out of the chamber. Once out, kill the hylden you find out

there and run in thru the passage on the side. Jump down in this new area and

look for an opening to go thru. In here kill the warrior and get ready to charm

someone. Jump down and follow the next passage into a trap. A hylden has closed

you in by force fields and is flooding the chamber with water. Charm the human

behind him to undue the force fields with the button on the left. Now get out

of there and take revenge on the hylden. Follow the path into the next chamber

where by pulling a switch you open a weird looking elevator that you have to

jump into. You are now in the presence of the machine and will have to move in

a clockwise matter in order to get to the top of it. On the base floor kill the

warrior and move toward the flashing button in the distance, activate it and

ride the platform up. Now move along the clockwise path killing beast demons,

hyldens, and hylden warriors in order to move further. Some barriors you have

to deactivate by using green locks in the distance and others, just ride a

platform up. Once you are at the top all you have to do is press a button and

then the level is over. You see Kain destroy the machine and you reunite with

the former beast.



Chapter 10 The Wharves "Betrayal"

Whats this? Umah has betrayed you? Well chase after her!



Run thru the mist field stealth killing the three knights. Charm the lady

behind the gate to open it for you. Go thru the door on the right and follow it

till a cinema starts. You'll need to find a password to get to the sarafan

boat. Take a right at the gate and go through the valve gate. Kill the glyph

knight and head off in the direction he came from. Follow the path but stop

before you are attacked by two knights and head into the doorway on the right.

Get ready for another somewhat difficult switch puzzle. Pull the first switch

releasing the glyph energy. Quickly run to the other side of the room and turn

the valve so it can continue its way up. Run up the stairs one flight and turn

the next valve. Go up the last flight and turn the last valve and congrats

that’s over with. Pull the newly empowered switch and a ship moves out of the

way for a d.g. jump later on. Now head down and take out those two knights from

earlier. Dark jump across the sea and learn the password for the gate. Follow

the path to be lead back to the original area requiring the password. Like

usual, give the password and then off with his head. Go thru the valve gate and

being very careful jump on the cargo to the left of you. Turn around and look

inside the tunnel, activate the green lock there to get the ship to move behind

you. Now d.g. jump across the sea again and take out the glyph knight there.

Follow the path up the ladder and into a new room. In this room there is a box

that you can move. Move it in front of the door you just came thru and it will

fall thru the floor. Now move the box onto the floor weight to unlock the door

down there. Go through the door and follow the path, killing the knight you

come across. Moving further along, you'll come to a dead end. Go thru the

doorway there, around the water and run into a friendly human with information,

congradulate his good work by killing him. Go thru his door and head right to

kill the glyph knight. Don't go too far or enemies will shoot arrows at you

from a safe distance. Once he's dead, quickly run across to the otherside of

the shooting gallery into a warehouse type place. In here kill the knight and

his glyph knight friend. Now turn the valve that isn't behind a cage to change

which cage is open. Go into the now open cage and pull the switch. Turn the

valve that changes the open cage again. Go into the new open cage, the valve in

there. One last time, turn the valve that changes which cage is open and finish

this switch puzzle with one last tug of the now opened caged switch. Go to the

newly opened area where you were being shot at and kill the two glyph nights

inside. Follow the path and kill the guard and glyph knight that you see. Go

right at the intersection and watch the crates fall on the two warriors coming

at you. Run into the warehouse and climb your way to the back of the warehouse

and get ready to move a crate. The order in which you pull the switches is

middle, right, middle, left, left, middle, and right. Now a beast demon is

loose and breaks thru the gates for you. Follow the demon and you'll come

across an old friend(and we all know how Kain is with old friends). Anyways

after the breif cinema, continue on your way killing the beast demon and two

enemies by him. Go to the gate they were guarding and charm the person behind

it. Have them run up to the crane controls and have them press in the following

order, left and then right. Now go thru the valve gate and continue on your way

killing two glyph knights along the cobblestone road. Look for an open door on

the right side of the stree at the end and get ready to kill two more glyph

knights. After they're dead continue thru the door and killing yet another

glyph knight. Somewhere along that road you can d.g. jump across to the other

side, but be careful because there is a boat shooting arrows that comes by

every once in a while. Now just repeat this a couple more times following a

path to each jump along cobblestone roads until you go thru a door and are in a

tavern. Kill anyone in here and head upstairs. Once at the top of the stairs

head left and jump down to the ground and go thru the door. You can open the

door you see in the next room but its just one you passed earlier that was

locked. Anyways continue on your path killing the two knights you see. Don't

d.g. jump across the river yet. That place is locked up. Instead, climb up the

ladder to the top of the scaffolding and jump d.g. jump to the other side from

there. On the other side climb up to the left and follow the path to the last

area of the level. Go around the caged area to where you can charm the guy near

the levers. Have him pull the middle lever releasing the only unkillable enemy

of the game who kills all the knights thereand make a hole for you to travel

thru. Have the charmed guy bring down the cage again, get in the cage yourself,

and then charm the guy to press the middle switch to end the level.

Chapter Eleven: The Hylden City "The Living End"

You arrive on a boat full of dead bodies (dead bodies, no foolin, I wonder who

killed them and sucked them dry already?) You did! Anyways you run into the

Sarafan lord who disappears to the end of the level to await you.



Run up the pathway on the left killing the Hylden you run into along the way.

Continue on the path till the dead end with the hole, fall into the hole and

from there free the demon from its cage so it will kill the two Hylden there

and make entrance for you via broken glass. Go all the way back to the

beginning of the level fighting spiders and one Hylden along the way. Ride the

elevator in there down to an underground area. You'll learn of where you're

supposed to go next and also there's a demon behind you so run as fast you can

on the left pathway, and up the walkway to the door above. Walk thru the door

and go misty to kill the two Hylden. Walk thru the only door that opens in here

and take out the warrior on the bridge. Go down a level and activate the two

buttons, opening a path thru an explosion on the lower level. Go in there and

kill the Hylden and warrior that wait inside. Follow the path killing two more

warriors and another Hylden along the way. Once again go thru the only working

door down a tunnel to a new area. Leap across rubble in order to get to the

other part of the walkway that collapsed. Follow the walkway to the next

checkpoint. Jump down and move the glyph pedestal you see there one space.

Continue along the path killing one spider and then going into a new chamber

with a window. Charm the person in the other chamber and have them hit the

button in the center room releasing the unstoppable demon who kills the charmed

and the warrior. Lure the demon to the next window by turning off the machine

there by pressing the button once and then when the beast is on that platform,

press it again to kill it (only time it is killed in the game). Go thru the now

broken glass and jump over some rubble in the room to get to two buttons that

when pressed make a new path thru an explosion down below. Go thru this new

path into a new water block maze. Charm the guy opposite you and get him to

drown out the water. Jump down and push the block you see into a lighted area.

Go back to where you first entered and have the charmed guy flood the area

again. Now d.g. jump to the box and jump up through the broken grating you see

next to it. From there head to the right and push the last button that raises a

gate keeping the water from coming in but lets you have access to crappy

elevator. Once you jump on one platform in the elevator immediately turn around

and get ready to jump off. Now just follow the path, fall into the hole, follow

the path some more, kill some spiders and follow the path to a dead end. Here

turn the valve to drain the water. Now jump down into the previously flooded

areas lining up the blocks you down there up for some d.g. floating water block

hopping. Once all three are lined up in order to get to the next door, go back

and flood the area. CAREFULLY d.g. jump from one block to the next. On the

third block charm the guy behind the window to open the doors for ya. Now d.g.

thru the doorway and drown out the water again by taking the newly open

passage. Once they are drowned out continue along this passage passed the door

opening button and push off the block on the ledge there. Push it out as far as

it goes. Now jump over it and head for the tunnel ahead killing the three

spiders in it. Follow the tunnel all the way up and push the block off the

ledge. Reposition the block to be right near the gate(closest to the last

block) and go back to the beginning to flood the place. Once again CAREFULL

d.g. from each box till the end where you go thru a doorway. Go thru the

doorway right in front of you and ride one of the green discs up a level to

take out another warrior. Go thru the next door and take a left to kill another

warrior and a Hylden. Jump down the hole they were by to take out two more

warriors. Follow the path to a green glowing area take a left and follow the

path across the bridge fighting Hyldens, at every work station, every once in a

while needing to d.g. jump across the green growing pit. Once you're at the

end, press the button and jump on the platform to ride it up. Once there, jump

on the crates to the right of you and get ready for some timed jumps. As soon

as the green smoke starts to dissipate in the first smoke stack thing, d.g. to

it and do the same for the too smoke stack things that follow it until you jump

down. Follow the path, kill the warrior near the two doors, and take the door

on the left. Follow the path leaping up some boxes on the right to take out the

two Hylden above, once they are dead push the button over looking where you

came in. Jump down and go into the new room. Push the button there to send the

table flying forward to provide a lift to jump to the next area. Follow that

tunnel killing the one spider inside and jump across to the catwalk suspended

above the area below. Follow it to the end and jump off to the left. Follow the

path killing the two Hylden you see and then push the two buttons there

releasing humans for the demon to eat and opening the door behind where the

demon monster once was. Kill the warrior inside and then you are whisked away

in a metal box ride. When you arrive in the new place kill the Hylden and

warrior that are there and continue on your way to a mini boss.



Mini Boss

Here just activate the green locks, stand in front of them so the thing in the

middle will shoot them and blow them up. After it destroys for the thing above

it falls and crushes it.



Following a brief ciname, you are now teleported in front of the final building

you have to go thru. The door is locked so go in thru the side door on the

right. Once inside kill the two warriors there and continue on your path. In

the next area you'll have to charm someone to the left of you to get them to

drown out the flooded area. Next move the box below right underneath the switch

you see. From on top of the box, charm the man again and have him flood the

place. Press the button to make another elevator(that’s blocked off for now.

Jump up the edge on the other side of the area and d.g. from there across water

and press the button there to unlock the gate. Go back to the main unflooded

area and ride the elevator up like you did before. Go around and behind where

you come up and kill the last Hylden and warrior in the game. Follow the path

opening the door with the button and walk your towards your final boss at the

other end of the walkway.



Final Boss

First he is trying to kill you by shooting three blast from the soul reaver at

you in a row(easily dodgable). And you can't get too close or he'll teleport

away. So from halfway across a bridge facing him, shoot a telekinetic blast at

him making him wobble on the edge of the platform. Quickly switch to the d.g.

jump and jump at him knocking him over the edge. Now switch strategies because

he's attacking you with the soul reaver dead on. To tell you how strong the

sword is, when facing him I still had a weapon from earlier, one hit from the

soul reaver while blocking shatterd it. But don't worry you can block his

attacks. Just block 5 hits in his 6 hit combo, and dodge the last blow. Do this

to build up Immolate. and use that on him until the next phase of the battle.

Now you'll have the soul reaver and he's practically a pushover. He still does

a 6 hit combo but attacking him is fun. You use berzerk with the soul reaver,

grab him and throw him over the edge even though he comes right back, or while

grabbing him stab him with the soul reaver. Once he's dead, congratulations

you've beaten the game.
