Summary
As a beginner who has just startedEnotria: The Last Song, you might feel very overwhelmed as you try to understand various gameplay mechanics. The terrains are challenging and the enemies residing in them won’t go easy on you either. So, all you’re able to do is to follow some effective strategies that would help you during your journey.
The game certainly gave us a hard time, making us wish we had known a few things sooner. Hence, we are breaking them down from you here, so you can avoid a few rookie mistakes that may get you into more trouble later.
8Use The Same Mask In Different Loadouts
You are able to have a total ofthree Loadoutsthat you’re able to switch into anytime. It’s a good strategy to use the same mask in two or more loadouts with different perks, parry gems, and aspects so you can experiment with them to know what works better.
Before you rush in to take on enemies, you have to consider their strengths and weaknesses, which will help you form your builds compatible with your mask.
You might even need to switch between physical or elemental damaging builds depending on conditions. If your enemies are resistant to one element, you can switch into a different loadout to take them all on easily.
7Explore Every Nook And Cranny
The exploration in Enotria: The Last Song is certainly very rewarding, and you might find some useful trinkets as you explore various terrains and towns. Rushing through the game without properly exploring will lead you to miss many useful weapons, materials, and other items.
You need a lot of materials to upgrade your equipment, and the best way to obtain some is through exploring. Collecting some tools will also help you beat enemies easily. You might even come across some excellent weapons that you definitely wouldn’t want to miss out on.
6Focus On Passive Healing
The Armonia Ambers that you will get at the start of the game are limited, and you can only heal five times until you rest at a Reality Knot again. While you can increase this number later using Armonia Amplifiers, you are better off finding ways to get passive healing.
If you inflict enemies with Wicked, you will restore your health, the more you hit enemies.
The best way to do that in the early game is to equip some perks that have passive healing as an effect. You might even get some healing later in the game if you acquire the Gardener’s Mask.
5Do Not Focus On Only A Single Virtue
While you may be tempted to make some specific builds by leveling up some particular Virtues, you shouldn’t do that early in the game. It becomes more challenging when you are not used to various stats and how well you can utilize them with the rest of your Loadouts.
By the time, you realize that the stats are imbalanced, it may be too late, and you might have to gather Memoria all over again to make the Maskless One efficient at Combat. Ideally, it’s best to balance them out equally, till you plan out your specific builds later in the game.
4Rest At Reality Knots Often
Your priority should be unlocking Reality Knots in any area as soon as you’re able to. You really shouldn’t be engaging in combat a lot, while you are carrying a lot of Memoria in your hand. You should rest at a Reality Knot and use it all up to level up the Maskless One before you end up losing it.
You can also use your Memoria to upgrade your weapons at a smithing table near Reality Knots.
Once you have used up all your hard-earned Memoria, you’re able to now freely explore without worrying about losing it. So resting at Reality Knots more often will help you level up quickly.
3Use Tools For Additional Help
Do not just store these helpful tools in your Inventory, use them up when the situation calls for it. You will amass a wide variety of tools as you keep progressing through Enotria: The Last Song. It’s always a good idea to equip them in your inventory.
Before you equip tools, you must always consider the enemy types that you will face, as you can heal yourself and any status ailments that are afflicting you with their help. There are all sorts of tools available with different effects and you may use some to inflict your enemy with some status effects.
2Do Not Ignore Strong Enemies
Strong enemies such as theLumberjackdrop a lot of Memoria when they are defeated. So, you should definitely not ignore their existence and end up rushing through them.
You will also obtain some great loot from them including weapons and mask shards. You will come across Bulky Clowns that may drop Curtis Mask Shards when you beat them. Some elite enemies are mini-versions of bosses, so you might also get a nice practice out of it.
1Refund Equipment Resources Often
Enotria: The Last Song is all about experimenting with different builds, so you will be trying out various equipment to go along with your builds. Often you will realize that the weapons, you have used your resources on aren’t really suitable with the rest of your gear, so it’s a good idea to refund the materials you spent on a piece of equipment.
Unfortunately, you cannot recover the Memoria you have spent by refunding. Still getting some of your materials back will help you upgrade some new Masks, Weapons, and Mask Lines that you might obtain as you progress.
