This sectioncontains starting tips for Darksiders 3.
Choose the normal difficulty level
Darksiders 3is quite a demanding game.
The third entry of theDarksidersseries is, in our opinion, the most difficult.
We recommend choosingBalancedfor your first playthrough.
Moreover, completing the game in the Nightmare Mode isn’t rewarded in any way.
Use secondary weapons
InDarksiders 3, all auxiliary weapons can be used together with the main weapon.
Each unlocked Hollow adds a new secondary weapon.
you’d be smart to test the weapon and get acquainted with combinations available to that weapon.
Moreover, do not break found soul containers immediately after finding them.
They are safely kept in your inventory until you decide to open them.
To upgrade your gear, you must visit Ulthane at the Maker’s Forge.
You will find the forge soon after beginning the campaign - it has a fast travel spot nearby.
The cost is often the same for different items,therefore upgrade these weapons that you most often use.
Upgrade other weapons only when you have a lot of crafting materials available.
Earn and spend attribute points
Transfer souls at every opportunityand explore the worldto find Luminous Visage items.
Each of these three main parameters allows you to make the heroine stronger, or more durable.
If you want, you could develop them evenly or allocate more points to improve one favorite attribute.
When breaking through barricaded passages, it is usually enough to use the essence of the flame or beetles.
Our walkthrough offers solutions to all riddles found in the game.
Offer a few blows, withdraw and wait for the opponent to move, and then counter.
you’re free to further increase your chances of countering an opponentby locking the camera.
Many destructible objects leave orange orbs - the main bang out of loot found in the game.
By picking up orange orbs, you’re able to find e.g.
soul containers, consumables, or unique cores and artifacts.
Destroying objects can also reveal secret passages, such as tunnels leading to rooms with unique treasures.
Special attacks are best launched during battles with large groups of enemies and bosses.
During a special, your character is completely immune to attacks.
In such situations, you should skip the battle and return to it when Fury is stronger.
Sometimes the most obvious things are obscured.
Look for cracks in walls, floors and ceilings.
Use the compass when you don’t know where to go.
It’s bearings are constantly updated.
It can lead you to e.g.
a place where you’re gonna wanna jump into a hole or squeeze through a tunnel.
This will help you with exploration and direct you to locations connected with the story.
To use them, you’re gonna wanna reach one ofthe teleports near which Vulgrim appears.
grab the third dialogue option from the list to display a list of locations that have already been discovered.
it’s possible for you to then pick the point to which you want to go.
For example, after getting the Fire Hollow, you might burn webs.
Do not waste time trying to get through the obstacles.
Watch the health bar to be able to heal Fury when necessity arises.
React quickly if you notice that the heroine is on the verge of dying.
Death can force you to repeat a portion of the game and having to retrieve your lost souls.
Best way to heal Fury is to use Nephilim Respite.
These are consumables which you could use once per some time.
To get them back, you better return to the area where you died.
Look for clusters of blue souls and attack them to add them to your inventory.
In the initial stages of the game, you should spend your souls wisely.
Do not spend souls on consumablesi.e.
various types of shards.
It is best to give collected souls to Vulgrim, to unlock attribute points.
Moreover, you might buy permanent items of inventory, such as weapon enhancements or new armors.
