Sins of the Flesh Guide & Help! How to Unlock Stuff!

[Massive_CM]

Welcome to the Cult Cheatsheet!

This is a WIP little guide to help you figure out how to unlock some of the amazing new content in our latest update. I've spoiler tagged some of it, just hover over the black bits to reveal text.

For information about the update and all new features (including information about Disciples, Rituals, and everything else) please read this post: https://steamcommunity.com/games/1313140/announcements/detail/6915906760354008792

How to Unlock New Content for Sins of the Flesh

You need to have passed the requirement of defeating 3 Bishops during the main story. The Sins of the Flesh content will unlock once you have performed a Sermon, Doctrine or Ritual.

How to Revive Dissented/Damned Followers

You need to defeat the Follower during a crusade, at least 3 times. You will be able to revive them via a ritual after this.

How to Find Grapes/Hops/Cotton

During crusades in a special room dedicated to each resource.

Why wont my Follower level up above 10?

Follower level is now capped at 10 - Followers at max level can can still participate in any interactions or Cult events that would normally increase their loyalty, but their loyalty bar will not appear anymore.

Disciples

Invite your most loyal Followers to the inner circle of Disciples, a revamped levelling system of Follower progression.

The Discipleship Ritual will allow you to initiate a level 10 Follower, giving them the coveted position. Upon initiation, Disciples gain the Faith Trait (allowing them to re-educate those naughty dissenting Followers once a day), and can generate more Devotion compared to regular Followers.

How to Get Sozo Follower

Sozo’s Follower form can be obtained through a new side quest that will only activate once you complete all prior Sozo quests, and Sozo is deceased.

Pick up a mushroom from Sozo’s body when going back to Spore Grotto, and plant it. Planting this will make a Follower version of Sozo grow after a couple of days.

After this (may take a few days), Sozo will give you an optional task to get him some mushrooms. If you accept, Sozo will become brainwashed. Brainwashed Sozo will eat every mushroom in the farm, will not sleep and have brainwashed stats (higher chances of success during missions).

Sozo will not work in the Cult, but will give you a side quest to bring his friend Mushroomo back from a crusade in Anura. After completing this quest, Sozo will run after Mushroomo and eat him – this will lead to the same quest again. Refuse, and Sozo will dissent. Put him in jail to re-educate him for 5 days so he can sober up.

How to Find All Lore Tablets

You need to have defeated The One who Waits to unlock the Lore Tablets. Find secret lore totems underneath breakables during crusades.

There are 15 Lore items: 10 that can be found in the lore room, 3 in the new graveyard room by digging up graves, one hidden behind Haro’s tent or in the Meat Room and one hidden behind the fire in Monch's room.

dumb question, how do you find the meat room and what does it look like? i cant seem to find it or it doesnt show up in the crusade map

i think you can randomly find it in a crusade with a meat icon, then again, i havent been able to play the update but im 99% sure they didnt remove the meat room.

scroll to the bottom in this article for the meat room, its pretty rare i believe

what about the other follower forms? ive gotten the worm one, and the poppy form, but others like the snake and the lemur and whatnot are still locked :(

you get the snake from getting all lore tablets, lemur might be from getting golden eggs.. check the cult of the lamb wiki and search for follower forms

If he has dissented completely, you should be able to find him during a crusade. Make sure you have recruited back all Sinned Followers first, as if there is a Sinned Follower showing up in crusades, Dissented Followers wont show up

[Nasakux]

Thanks! Now I shall unlock the snake

Well, I have a new problem.. I'm trying to get rid of my sinful followers who have left, but there is one who just doesn't want to die.. usually you have to fight 3 times with them, but this one it only appears once.. I start the level again after finishing it and once again it only reappears once instead of three.. I will never be able to collect Sozo again for the success..

I’m trying to get the meat room and the Moth’s room but they just won’t show up for me, I feel like it’s low chance or a little bugged for post-game.

What happens if you refuse the quest the first time Sozo asks?

I can't figure out what the third button is for the drum circle minigame. I'm on a Steam Deck and it says to use B, A, and LT, but what is LT? I've tried using the L1 and L2 buttons, and I suppose it's possible I just haven't hit the timing correctly, but neither seems to work. And since the drum circle takes a decent bit of time to recharge, and the minigame goes so fast, it's hard to just trial and error it. (Putting aside the issue of the button layout for the minigame being physically unintuitive for me.) I kind of feel like I'm missing something obvious.
