All Items Guide - Familiars, Mantras, Virtues, VP & Consumables

A Guide to getting basically everything in the game

All Items Guide

This Guide shows location of all Familiars, Mantras, Virtues, VP and Consumables currently in the game. I created this beacuse I did't find many significant informations online. Hope it will help anybody who's getting lost for a 100% Items Found achievement, and
more. It also contains informations about the items.

I wanted to expand information from this guide that i got online, I took a lot of graphics from it: https://www.speedrun.com/lucah/guide/4zui5 I just wanted to expand it and add missing data.

Be warned, this guide contains spoilers. I recommend you trying to do game alone, and just using it if you are lost

The Descent Added Content with 1.4.0

________________________________________________________________
For one-year anniversary of the game's birthday, creators of the game added new free expansion called: The Descent. To access it, head to this mysterious door (See Below) at the end of Track 7/the beginning of Track 8, and talk to the cultist beside it - they'll let you in, if you're persistent.
________________________________________________________________

Sacraments

There are 6 sacraments, atleast as I know.

Sacrament I : When you start the New Game+

Sacrament II : When starting The Descent expansion.

Sacrament III : On track 7, you have to talk with the Priest (From West Door) in the building before the Radio Tower. This process will start corruption ending and NG+.

Sacrament IV : In New Game +, you have to talk to K- 201. You can find him at Track 4, on the East Shore. You can't have access to it if you have corruption ending.

Sacrament V : You get it after the Neutral Ending.

Sacrament VII: It is accessed after defeating Maria, final boss of the True Ending

Endings and Corruption

There are 3 endings in Lucah, here is how to get every one of them.

Neutral Ending - Just finish the game normally, without making the corruption meter overflow. Kill Christian at the end and defeat Messiah once and for all.

Corruption Ending - Or Bad Ending, like in a name, you have to fill Corruption Meter all the way to 100%.

True Ending - By completing Neutral and then going through the entire game again in New Game + mode. I have to mention that you can't be heartless You have to Embrace Christian (Just don't deal the final blow to him), and then kill Maria, the final boss of the game.

Small recommendation on New Game+
If you have a problem managing corruption on New Game +, i highly recommend you to grind (xD),
or even to use cheats (You can enable them in a character menu)
As someone who wasn't that great at the game i think trying these tactics is fine, but only if you are interested in a story. New Game + becomes very punishing, and Colin didn't put the cheat menu without reason.
There's a one way to make your corruption disapear, but it makes you Heartless (You will lose your familiar for the rest of the run and you will not be albe to access the final ending of the game so don't try it in NG+) so I hope you will use it in the most desperate of times.
At the end of Track 7, just right from your bonfire, go through the door and talk to the big guy (East Priest).

[Jebediah Jones Jr.]

if you go heartless and lose your familiar, do you get it back after getting to the ending and starting over? I missed the sacrament on my new game run and want to see it for myself but don't want to fuck up my NG+ playthrough.

[Hellfire]

@Team Player Wow, that's interesting!

[Lucah]

I just wanted to share that i just got corruption ending at the start of ng+ and i found out that this is the best way to accuaried Aether. Just press F at the start. You don't lose any progress if you do it at the start.

To be fair i just wanted to say that i did it accidentally.

[Hellfire]

@grzesiekr You will have to start over from the start but you won't lose "ng +".
If you have a problem with ng + i recommend you to turn your cheats on, or to grind in the first location to lower your corruption bar.

[Hambundalakaka]

do i lose new game + if i get the corruption ending?

[El Metan]

could you please add a warning that if you talk to the priest in order to get sacrament III, you instantly get the corruption ending

[Florian.]

thank you for letting me know :D

[Hellfire]

@Lisa. Hey! As far as I know it doesn't. My first ng + playthrough used cheats and I still earned most of the achievements. They are completely safe :)

[Florian.]

Thank you for this guide.
Do you know if enabling cheats will affect getting achievements? I'd like to 100% the game but some parts of it would be too much to deal with a 2nd time around
