Introduction
Welcome to my Soulstice guide.

To find anything specific use your browser search engine by pressing ctrl+f on PC.

No achievement / trophy is missable. There's a chapter select allowing you to replay any chapter with current loadout.
To get all achievements you will have to finish the game at least 3 times but 4 are recommended.


Playthrough 1

Play through the game on Initiate difficulty (4 playthroughs) or on Knight difficulty (4 playthroughs).
On Knight enemies are slightly more tougher and some bosses use some additional attacks. If you play on KNight you will unlock Chimera difficulty and if you start on Initiate you will have to replay the game on Knight to unlock Chimera difficulty but you will have more resources and probably all skills unlocked when starting Chimera playthrough.

On this playthrough get all health and entrophy upgrades and find all challenges. This will be the longest playthrough.

As for Health and Entrophy upgrades you can only get 7 out of 11 for each stat from pickups. Last 4 must be bought from store. First cost 10 000 crimson, second 15 000, third 30 000 and last one 40 000 crimson. So you will need 190 000 crimson to upgrade both health and entropy to the max unlocking following achievements / trophies.



It's only pain - Upgrade Health to max level



I know how to handle it - Upgrade Entropy to max level



Playthrough 2

If you started on Initiate this will be your Knight playthrough.
Use it to unlock all skills bos both characters and last health and entropy upgrades.

All Collectibles
In my All Collectibles guide you will find all Health and Entropy upgrades, location of all challenges that once found, can be replayed from Extras menu.
I also included Crimson and Cobalt Motherloads locations. Those are the big crystals granting you red and blue crystal used to buy stuff like skills, upgrades and items in store.
There are also optional battles that are not so optional when you go after all upgrades and challenges but can be skipped in later playthroughs.
I also added some achievements so you can unlock them as soon as possible.

Chimera Difficulty Platinum Walkthrough
Tips for getting Platinum rank on Chimera difficulty

- To get good score during the fight use different weapons. Cycle through the weapons, use Synergy Attacks and try to hit multiple enemies. Swaping weapons in especialy important in Boss chapters.
- Take optional battles to get more points
- Don't give up in fight is not going your way. You can still get Platinum even if few fights went bad.
- Don't get hit. You can usually take few hits during the fight and still get Diamond rank on that. Sometimes composition of enemies may be a bit to much thought and you will get hit no matter what you do.
- Try not to use Transcendence Stance, it lowers your overall score and gives hardly any points.

Something... unnatural - Defeat the Harbinger on Transcended difficulty, obtaining Diamond



For this one you have to get Diamond rank on Chapter 24 and Chapter 25 while playing on Transcendent Difficulty.

Chapter 24
What worked really well for me was a bow.
You can rack up some nice combos from afar knocking down her shield, than swoop in and hit her with yy-yyyy combo on basic sword.
My goal here was to get diamond in points because I knew I won't be able to dodge all attacks and I will definitely get hit. I ended up dying twice and still got Diamond in the end.
You want Diamond in points rather than health because it will count both in combat score and in chapter score.
If you can do better in Damage then good for you.

Chapter 25
This one is a bit tricky because you only have 7 minutes to get a good score and kill the boss. After that Time score will start to fall rather quickly and you want that Diamond in Time.
What worked for me was yy-yyyy combo on basic sword. Also hold to your Unity and use Rapture State when boss is falling to speed up the fight. Without it you won't be able to finish in time.
You can get hit few times and not loose Diamond score in Damage but try to avoid that.
