So it’s possible for you to collect more essence points and then visit the shrine.
Darkness powers are divided into four different groups and each group is based on the talent tree.
So it is a good way to buy all the missing talents.
A complete description of all powers is included in the table below.
To do it, slash vertically with the right tentacle.
Heart Health
1000 essence points + Demonic Lift
Recover more health by eating the hearts of opponents.
It is very useful, especially for distracting or making opponents easy targets.
They stay active for some time and allow you to inflict greater damage.
It is quite interesting power if you mostly eat hearts instead of executions.
Dark Blast
1000 essence points + Air Darkling
Objects thrown with a left tentacle will explode on impact.
It is very useful power, which should be unlocked early.
This also concerns throwing darkling.
After throwing it, it creates a vortex which attracts all nearby objects.
Caustic Black Hole
1250 essence points + Black Hole
Makes black holes bigger.
Dark Armor
1250 essence points + Dark Blast
Using the armor granting you increased resistance to damage.
This power is especially useful if you play on higher difficulty levels.
It works only in dark so when you enter the illuminated area you will lose additional defense points.
It is best to use Swarm attack during the fights with groups of enemies and bosses.
Expert Channeler
1250 essence points + Gun Channeling
Faster regeneration of Gun Channeling.
The Destroyer’s Channeling
It extends the working time of Gun Channeling.
I suggest buying this talent, because this power in its basic form doesn’t last long.
Black Swarm
1250 essence points + Swarm
It extends working time of Swarm.
Expert Swarm
Faster regeneration of Swarm power.
Swarm power is very useful later on during the game.
This is very useful power but you have to remember about its limited range.
Killer Swarm
1500 essence points + Black Swarm
Increases damage inflicted to opponents attacked by a swarm.
It is very useful talent, which I strongly recommend to buy.
Guns
Combat Belt
200 essence points
Increases ammo capacity.
I strongly suggest unlocking this power especially that it is very cheap.
You should buy this power only if you prefer shotguns than assault rifles.
Weapon Handling
Faster reloading of weapons.
Shotgun Darkness Mod
Extend shotguns' clip.
Noteworthy is that this powers works only if Jackie stays in dark.
Pistol Darkness Mod
Extend pistols' clip.
Noteworthy is that this powers works only if Jackie stays in dark.
Assault Rifle Darkness Mod
1000 essence points + Shotgun Darkness Mod
Extend assault rifles' clip.
Noteworthy is that this powers works only if Jackie stays in dark.
SMG Darkness Mod
1000 essence points + Pistol Darkness Mod
Extends SMG’s clip.
Noteworthy is that this powers works only if Jackie stays in dark.
Unfortunately, unlocking it involves spending large amount of essence points on other, often less useful powers.
So you should think twice about buying this power and first decide to buy more useful talents.
Remember however that you are not able eat the heart of such executed enemy.
Hitman Executions
Pressing the 2 key after grabbing enemy results in execution which gives you some extra ammo.
It is not interesting talent, so it is better to spend essence points on something else.
Expert Grabber
Makes that stunned enemies are longer vulnerable for grabbing then with a left tentacle.
Demonic Executions
Pressing the 4 key after grabbing enemy results in execution which creates the Darkness shield.
It is not interesting talent, so it is better to spend essence points on something else.
Which powers should you buy as soon as possible?
Eating hearts is a better solution if you’re under attack.
