Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night |OT| We Have Paid Our Tribute, Igavania Is Resurrected
- Thread starter Dancrane212
- Start date
Anyone discover any cool weapon tech yet? I've found that with a super short hop (plinking the jump button basically) you can lash the whip in midair and then immediately lash it again when landing, cutting down on the otherwise long recovery time for the whip.
Any recipe you get means that Johannes can now craft items from that book.
All Dominique can do is sell you items you make. Nothing gets added to the shop unless you make it.
The hop attack is a staple of the genre but yeah the whip is a huge beneficiary from this.
Not sure this qualifies as a spoiler but some weapon mechanics I've discovered:
The hop attack, an Igavania staple, a quick jump attack that can be repeated to dramatically reduce animation time for attacks meaning more DPS.
Book cases will contain neat story tidbits about shardbinders or weapon techniques.
The red umbrella weapon has a cool weapon art. Hadoken motion + attack to activate it. Once mastered you can do it on any sword.
There's a steampunk greatsword. To get the most out of it you need to charge it up by holding the attack button. It'll release on its own once fully charged.
The nodaichi deflect art is insanely useful early game and if you like Katanas in the game it's worth mastering since you can block attacks you don't have time to dodge.
The three sectional staff has an extended thrust that's also worth mastering for that extra reach.

PC (GOG) Yep, you just use the #ABC1234
Yep, in your emails you should see KICKBLOODSTAINED-#ABC123 near the top. That's your backer ID.
Was there stuff like that in Symphony? I don't remember but it's been a while.
Started over because of the patch bug and oh man am I glad I did. The Spiral Sword absolutely wrecks shit early on in the game.
Thank you! I entered mine but haven't figured out what it did (if anything). At least I know I did it!
Tried again on PS4 1.02 both with and without the # just to be sure. Nothing. No feedback, nothing displayed on the save file.
I guess it does actually display in the input when putting the # so that is definitely the format, but once you submit it disappears into the ether...
You can hit the backdash button after a normal to cancel it and almost immediately press the attack button again for another attack It comes out so fast and you barely move backwards at all. If you do it fast enough with battle boots on, you can basically look like chun li kicking fast as hell.
You're welcome.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully it gets fixed.
I'm in the same position.
Do I enter with or without the "#"?
I've tried both and I see nothing. Playing on PS4, a digital copy since my physical hasn't arrived yet.
Check the threadmarks, Chest Bug
When you highlight your save file there is an options button that brings up a menu letting you put it in again. I don't believe anyone has found it actually doing anything yet but apparently it shows some info on your save in the pc version.
So Im at the point where I can fight gebel, but doing so results in a game over after killing him. Obviously this is a SotN situation, but any hints on what it is I need to do or place to explore?
I did it with the #
I think it might be a console bug.
Think down and wet. Might have to get a little bloody first.
Selling those fire whips for 750g is pretty good. Friend also found something that sells for 1100 before I logged off, will have to ask him what it was I know it was something he could deconstruct into gold.
So I've been hit by the chest bug. Can anyone tell me what the contents of the following chest was ?

In the screen with the carriage that jumps a big gap, there are frogs and such on the lower path, and on the very right there is a final chest after an iron maiden. The map was not filled in but the chest opened. What was in that chest...?
You can see the chest if you teleport in the right room and enter the big area from the bottom-right

Nice!
My copy says it's arrived in my city, but the delivery estimate hasn't uodated yet. Hopefully I receive mine tomorrow!
Official statement on chest bug
Roll back the patch if you're on console and it should fix it. A lot of my chest issues were fixed by rolling to the default disc version (1.0). Good luck, and if that doesnt solve your problem then you might have to restart if it bothers you.
Some have set pieces that will.
Like the bell you knock down in the cathedral
or you just looking for secrets?
I got
beat
the double jump
the 2 dragons and I cant progress. Did my game glitch? I dont think it gave me the item for the camera
The hop attack is just a frame cancel on landing so you can squeeze two attacks in rapid succession. It's in SoTN, Aria, Valdis Story, Dust, and so on. I can't think of a game in the genre from recent memory that doesn't have the frame cancel into attack upon landing.
Chest at the bottom of the tower you killed the dragons on?
Xbox doesn't get the patch until next week? Damn. Disappointed in that.
I hope NG+ isn't affected by this since you're technically starting a new game.
Picking up my copy tomorrow. Hopefully all the bugs are sorted soon.. I need this in my life.
What are people's impressions on the game? Been looking to get something and this looks interesting :)
The game can be played through on version 1.0 (base disc w/no updates). I can confirm this myself.
I don't know how this will effect future DLCs or NG+, but if you just want to complete the game go ahead and roll back to 1.0.
I'd recommend deleting the save file once you're done just to be safe for future DLCs.

What the best thing to spend the 8bit coin on. I've only got one, so i don't want to waste it. Ya know.
I already did the spoiler thing. It was pretty cool.
Secrets. Like the well.
