Tips, Secrets & Hints
Easy essence
Get to the part where you cross the drawbridge back into Tairon. When you encounter the three big purple fiends, cut their heads off with the Flying Swallow technique. Then, do not attack them with any other attack except for your fully charged Y technique with the Dragon Sword. If you kill all three of them like this, not only will you get a Talisman Of Rebirth, but you will also get about 6,000 to 7,000 Essence from each of them. Cross the bridge, go a short distance back, then return to that location. You should be able to fight them again and get the same results.
Defeating the Ice Sloth
Equip either the dragon sword, Kietsu, or the Unlabored Flawness and just attack him head on. When he raises icicles from the ground, roll jump to avoid them. If he tries to bite you, roll out of the way and attack him with a combo. If he swipes at you, roll away until he stops then attack him.
Defeating the electric worm
If you have a Dabilahro at level 3, this fight will be easy. When the worm appears, it will shoot two electric balls at you. Just dodge them. Stay in the top left corner of the platform. As soon as he is done, charge Y. When he come out, he will either shoot a electric ball at you or try to swipe you with his body. If he shoots an electric ball at you, just before he shoots, release Y. This will take down 25% of its health. If it body swipes you, release Y when it is about to hit you. You will jump over it and take down 25% of its health. When facing two electric worms, use the same method. Dodge the electric balls and charge up for an ultimate attack. If both worms are out while you attack, both worms will lose 25% of their health.
Defeating Doku
Dodge all his attacks and wait for him to kneel down and charge at you. As soon as he charges, move to the left or the right. As soon as the animation is done, he will be vulnerable. Attack him with a combo and roll away. Repeat this as many times as needed.
Chapter 10: Upgrade almost all weapons
Go into the room where you get the second Jewel of The Demon Seal. Kill the first 30 Beetles, then leave the room and return. There is a challenge where you can kill 60 Beetles. Kill about 57 to 58 beetles, then leave the room. Keep repeating the process to get a lot of Essences. Once you leave the room, you can run to the shop and upgrade your weapons. Continue the process until you have upgraded all the weapons you have. Once you have upgraded everything, spend the rest on supplies or armlets. After that, return to the same room that the Beetles. Kill all 60 Beetles to unlock a chest which contains a Talisman Of Rebirth.
