Sker Ritual Expanded Guide

This is an expanded guide for Sker Ritual, that has a walk through of the Hidden Easter Eggs on all four maps in Sker Ritual, including locations for hard-to-find things such as The Stranger, generators, rats, and statues, as well as an explanation of the Miracles and how to start getting Tier 4's on every run. Most of this information is pulled directly from the game in order to get the most accurate description, such as the miracles. However you are unable to pull up the entire list of miracles while you're playing so I felt it helpful to have them listed here. The display cuts off when viewing the guide on mobile, and you might not be able to see everything such as the miracles, but I found when flipping the display to landscape instead of portrait I could see the last column of miracles.

Hidden Easter Eggs

---

Cursed Lands of Lavernock

• Interact with the God Killer machine underneath the purple floating light. This will spawn The Stranger next to the machine, shoot him there and then in 3 more locations. The Stranger emits a radio wave sound that can be helpful when searching for him. (Known Locations: OId Chapel near the fire, Chapel Grounds in the window, Lavernock Point highest window, Farm Lands past the fence near some trees, Main Chamber behind the Super Charger, Laboratory behind the cracked door)
  
• Go to the Old Library and interact with the Medusa Statue. This will spawn a wave of enemies.
  
• Find 4 individual piles of rats around the map with a glowing symbol near them. Remember the symbol and number of rats for the next puzzle. (Known Locations: Broadcast Room, Caverns, Chapel Grounds, Farmlands, Hatch Service Entrance, Laboratory, Main Chamber, Morgue Wooden Hallways)
  
• Head to the Chapel Catacombs and interact with each statue to get the symbol you saw next to the corresponding number of rats.
  
• Locate and power up 5 generators. (Locations: Chapel Catacombs, Facility Entrance, Second-Floor balcony, Cavern, and Laboratory)
  
• Return to the Catacombs. You'll find the cage containing the black sheep open. Escort the sheep across the map. At the end of the road, the sheep will explode, opening the door to the secret room.
  
• Grab the seal on the altar in the secret room. Then defeat all spawned enemies. (Enjoy Draig)
  
• Head to Abraham’s Chamber, the boss room, place the seal in the God Killer machine and fight Abraham.

Ashes of Sker Hotel

• Interact with the God Killer machine underneath the purple floating light. This will spawn The Stranger next to the machine, shoot him there and then in 3 more locations. The Stranger emits a radio wave sound that can be helpful when searching for him. (Known Locations: Basement Office desk, Basement Room window, Ground Floor East Wing Stairs, Ground Floor West Wing stairs, Labyrinth dead-end, Theatre left of the stage, the Void)
  
• Go to the Basement Cells and interact with the electric fence, then go left and find a door with a purple symbol on it to get the lamb.
  
• Escort the black lamb to the chapel. Once it explodes, go to the Void, and push the red buttons to spawn waves of enemies, including Abominations.
  
• After pressing the third or fourth button, you will have to fight the King of the Rats.
  
• Go back to the Labyrinth where the black sheep will be standing near a fuse box on the wall. Get that fuse boxes shot at with electricity from Killavolts, it will turn blue to indicate when it's done, then repeat two more times. (I've found that sometimes the sheep doesn't appear on at least the last one. To tell if you are at the right one, shoot the fuse box. You will either get a hit marker or nothing, the one you should be working on will have a hit marker.)
  
• Head to the Library and go up the stairs. Look for a pile of rats near a purple symbol. From left to right there will be 4 piles of rats. Remember the number of rats in each pile.
  
• Find 4 statues of heads on the wall in the Library with a purple symbol above them. You need to shoot the heads in order matching the number of rats in piles that you found earlier.
  
• If you’ve done the puzzle correctly, the demon lamb will explode. Go to the Basement Cells and grab the seal.
  
• Teleport to the Second Floor Great Hall, the boss room, and place the seal in the God Killer machine and fight Isaac.

Sewers of the Dead

• Interact with the God Killer machine underneath the purple floating light. This will spawn The Stranger next to the machine, shoot him there and then in 3 more locations. The Stranger emits a radio wave sound that can be helpful when searching for him. (Known Locations: Catacombs in the corner near the Abomination coffin, First Class Coach past the three towers, Radio Tower off to the side, Second Class Coach on top of the water tower, Sewer Entrance South under the stairs, Water Room in a water tunnel above)
  
• Go to the First Class Coach and interact with the seal. This will spawn Balor.
  
• After that fight, 4 cat statues across the map will illuminate and become interactable, and the red button with the symbols is in the Bar Coach. Interact with the statues to rotate them to get them in the right direction. If the statue is correct, the symbols near the button will light up. (Locations: Radio Tower Clearing, Second Class Coach, Sewer Entrance West, Sker Island Train Station)
  
• Press the red button to spawn Balor the Undying.
  
• Go to the Rats Nest, the spawn room, and escort the demon sheep across the map. Enemies will spawn in the Catacombs and the Radio Tower Clearing. Once you arrive at the First Class Coach, defeat Balor the Undying once more.
  
• Grab the seal near the First Class Coach.
  
• Head to The Stranger's Lab, the boss room, place the seal in the God Killer machine and fight The Big Stranger (Balor, instead of the Abominations, will spawn underneath in between The Big Stranger's phases.)

• Go to the Dungeon Laboratory and arrange the symbols on the wall in the correct order.
  
• Grab the seal in the corner of the Dungeon Laboratory.
  
• Head to the Lover’s Chamber, the boss room, place the seal in the God Killer machine and fight Elisabeth & Thomas. (and Abraham, Isaac, an Abomination, and Balor as they spawn)

If you've done the hidden Easter egg on all four maps you'll have access to the God Killer after finishing the main story on every map. You should also be able to redo the hidden Easter egg whenever you play, but it can be difficult to put the seal back in the God Killer machine. Sometimes you have to get the spot just right because the God Killer prompt is in the way.

Do you see that bar underneath the gun? It's the reload time on the gun, you can switch guns while it's reloading. Enjoy!

Tier I Miracles

The miracles in this game can be super easy when you know how they work, but don't make sense when you're trying to pick them and run away from a sea of enemies. So here's a guide to help you decide which miracles best fit what you want.

If you don't see a miracle you like, you can refresh the listed ones for free by waiting for another miracle. They stack as high as you'll let them, just don't forget to check back to see if you like one. This is a super easy way to avoid paying ungodly amounts of money on miracle refreshes. Once you pick one you can't change it. You are allowed five Tier I, three Tier II, one Tier III, and one Tier IV.

The numbers include the different rarities, so the first one is the starting miracle and then every level after that is shown. 1/-/-/-% would be level one and -/-/-/4% would be the final level.

Example Setup

My preferred miracle run would have to be going for the Cailleach Tier III Winter Shield and the Brigid/Cailleach Tier IV Frozen Mastery. This means any combination of 5 miracles from Cailleach (For Tier III) and 3 miracles from Brigid (For Tier IV) would be my preferred choice.

Weapon	Molotov	Elixir	Melee	Ultimate
Solid Shot	Ice Bomb	Ice Elixir	Healing Stab	Winter Vortex

Here's how it looks in the game.

Tier II	Tier II	Tier II	Tier III	Tier IV
Cold Shoulder (2 ice needed)	Ice Skin (2 ice needed)	Shield Maiden (2 healing needed)	Winter Shield (5 ice needed)	Frozen Mastery (3 ice and 3 healing needed)

That's All Folks!!

I hope you found this guide helpful, I hope you leave a thumbs up if you did. This has been one of my favorite games in a while and this is literally just the guide I was using for myself and I figured I'd share it with everybody else.

For Steam users: Copy and paste the Easter Egg into your notes section so you can pull up the notes in the Steam Overlay. Set opacity to 20%-40% and you can make it look similar to the story guide.

[Snilloc]

Sure, @TheNutBuster! I posted my Example Setup as a display of the miracles that I always go for. If you're able to get Shield Maiden and Winter Shield, you'll almost never have to worry about getting knocked, almost making the game trivial at times. If you want to try other miracles you should look through the list of Tier III's then Tier IV's to see what jumps out at you.

I personally dislike any molotov or ultimate miracles that don't do damage, i.e., Health Bomb and Invincible. I'll forget that they don't kill a large group of enemies and then I'll try to use them that way and be SOL. And I have a preference towards shield abilities, as mentioned in the first paragraph. The Tier IV's I like to use and recommend trying would be Frozen Mastery first, then Elemental Fusion, and finally Soul Syphon. I hope that answers your question!

[TheNutBuster]

Does anyone know how to get the best perk upgrade things? I’ve been playing for a while and just barely got 5 for my first full upgrade. I play on hard and nightmare and doo full Easter eggs and don’t receive any

[Snilloc]

Welcome back lol. I'm not sure if there is an indication of when it breaks like that unfortunately. I think there is supposed to be a sound but I've never noticed it. I have no idea when it breaks when I'm using it, but that is my favorite tier III and it's overpowered with Shield Maiden.
I think it restores after a short amount of time, but that's another thing I'm not positive about because I don't know when it breaks in the first place. Sorry, I wish I could be more helpful on this one.

[Sunly]

hi, its me again, thx for ur answer. i have some problem about Winter Shield details:
1. is there some sound or screen hint to shield break? i really dont know when it breaks.
2. how does it restore? its description sounds like single use(should more completely)
P.S. zombie spawn rate is tooo slow(i played COD zm), seems also fixed quantity.

[Snilloc]

When you upgrade the rarity of the Fire Bomb miracle it will increase the damage of your molotov. The descriptions for the miracles are pulled from the game and that one doesn't say how much the increases are unfortunately. It also doesn't display how much damage the molotov does, so it's hard to gauge how much it increases by, but the size of the explosion does not change. Glad you like the guide, I hope I answered your question.

[Sunly]

What does Tire 1-Dragon-Fire Bomb rarities enhance? thx for ur guide, help a lot

[Snilloc]

I will get back to you on that one lol. I know that critical hits and headshots are different things. If you run crit miracles I believe it has the chance of making your normal body or limb shots do increased damage, but I’ve read on Reddit that headshots do max damage and crits don’t affect headshots.

[Cespen99]

Hey had a question, what exactly does critical do to your damage? I know that shooting a zombie in the arm/leg is base damage, shooting the chest is x2 damage and shooting the head is x4 damage, so is a 10% critical chance just a chance for a leg/arm shot to deal chest/head damage? Or does it add a % damage to any kind of shot. I have played a few rounds on every map and have gotten crit chance miracles a few times; don't think I've ever noticed a headshot deal more than quad damage so I think that's just the max you can deal even with increased hit chance.

[Snilloc]

Glad you like it!
