Blasphemous 2: Best build for Ruego al Alba

Hello everyone, dear friends. In this guide I will share with you the absolute best altarpiece figures build for Ruego al Alba. I spend a lot of time carefully testing every little thing and of course I have a lot of experience in this game. Let's analyze the basic characteristics of Ruego al Alba. Deals huge damage with the right and beautiful combinations, very quickly restores the health of the Penitent and can one-shot entire groups of enemies with the Weight of Sin ability. And in this build we are going to significantly improve all these qualities and even add new ones.
Let's take a look at the build.

Build Description

First, we need to decide what to power Ruego al Alba's blade with. We have two options here - to increase mystical damage or replace mystical damage with electric. The electric option will allow you to spread damage to all enemies and heal when you hit mirrors, bells, and so on with the charged ability Blood Pact. However, there are more enemies in the game that are vulnerable to mystical damage. And magical resonance will allow you to preserve and strengthen your mystical abilities, which will not be strengthened in the case of electricity. In addition to all this, mystical chants and prayers work more effectively than electric ones. Since we will use a combination of figures (The Punished One + The Guide) to increase mystical damage, the damage from mystical chants and prayers will also increase due to the fact that the placed figure of The Guide will function. I put the best altarpieces combo in this build to maximize damage. Enemies and bosses melt with the right combos. I picked the right unique resonance that extends the duration of Blood Pact after each kill which makes Blood Pact almost infinite. If you hit unbreakable objects like mirrors, bells, etc., when Blood Pact is active, you will regenerate your health at an insane rate. The damage range of Reaper Rosary will be significantly increased because of the resonance I chose correctly. This buff will hit enemies through walls and will save Blood Pact often. Healing effect from Bile Flasks will be increased by 25%. You can also climb to a great height and then unleash Weight of Sin on your enemies, which will most likely kill everyone and deal significant damage to the boss. Blood Pact will only enhance the effect.
Now let's move on to the build setup.

Build Setup

Below will be written all the resonances that can be achieved by placing two figures on one shelf of the altarpiece. And a little lower there will be a screenshot with this setup for your convenience.
1) Rosary of Torment (The Punished One + The Guide) - Reaper Rosary launches a cutting wave that causes Mystical damage.
2) Endless Wrath (The Partisan + The Demented One) - Killing an enemy during Blood Pact renews its duration.
3) Ascending Wrath (The Mercy + The Tirso) - Each successful blow with any weapon progressively increases damage inflicted for a limited period of time.
4) Jaloque's Favour (Nacimiento + Jaloque) - Increases Ruego Al Alba's strength.

This build works 100%, just try it.

I’m only asking cause they patched the blood pact a while back were the full combo would refill the blood pact gauge

[Hummy]

This build is based on the mechanics of the game, it always works. Mystical chants and prayers are more suitable for it because it has a figure The Guide, accordingly mystical damage is increased.

[btballsack]

Does this build still work? Or has it been patched also what prayers should I use?

[Hummy]

Thank you very much for your comment! You can replace the Jaloque figure with any other from the third category, the main thing is that the resonance of Jaloque's Favour is obtained in the end. It is not necessary to use identical figures, as shown in the build, choose them for yourself. The main thing is that the resonances remain intact.

Cool build, hate that the earliest you make it is just a little before Eviterno, but fine I guess. However, can you make a some kind of version without Jaloque, because if you get the incense of the envoys it can't be used anymore?
