Best Of
The Last Faithis the latest craze in the Metrodvania game sphere.
However, it adds its flourishes, which nail the gameplay.
It may sound easy on paper, butThe Last Faithhits it out of the ballpark.
If you need a head start, we’ve got you.
Here are the five best tips for beginners inThe Last Faith.
But as you level up, the real flavor of each class starts to shine through.
Here’s a breakdown of the classes:
The Brawler class is the beefcake of the bunch.
Forget about magic spells or fancy potions; this class is all about good old muscle power.
It’s an ideal class for players yearning to exercise their raw strength and HP.
This class focuses on melee combat, which is a plus for its starting stats.
Players in this class start with a high-strength stat and a high health pool.
If you don’t want to miss a piece of the action, this class is for you.
The Stargazer class is for players who prefer to maim their adversaries from a step or two away.
It is your standard Mage class, where casting spells is your primary defense.
A leveled-up stargazer can cast spells consistently, but with a low health pool.
The class’s high Dexterity Stat supports long-range weapons, keeping you out of harm’s way.
Finally, the Marksman class is all about weapons.
Their main focus is ranged combat with firearms.
Like the Brawler class, aside from the high Instinct stat, there’s little magic here.
This comes in handy when locating ammo from loot drops.
Now, you could pick which class suits you best.
Familiarize Yourself
With your hero in hand, it’s time to embark on your treacherous journey.
The game takes a non-linear approach, which means you are free to roam the world.
Start by having a lay of the land.
This way, you’re able to find resources and familiarize yourself with your enemies.
Either way, it’s a great way to kick in your new hero shoes.
Once these set in, you could double back and explore these levels.
That way, you won’t find yourself lost in the pixelated wilderness.
The game gives you a set of second chances with Healing Injections, its primary healing item.
You may find the injections as drops after defeating an enemy.
Alternatively, you’re free to purchase them from vendors.
Grab a Healing Holster, and you’re free to stash two more Healing Injections.
So, a healing holster helps you play it safe.
Plus, the more chances you have of healing, the better your chances of taking down a boss.
To find it, you must locate a locked chest that unlocks after completing a puzzle.
Level Up
Leveling up is your only chance of transforming your character into a formidable weapon.
You’ll have access to different stats and attributes based on your class choice.
These may include Strength, Mind, Vitality, Instinct, Fate, Health, and Dexterity.
You must speak to Helenya, who trades your Nycrux for amped abilities or stats.
Yes, everything comes at a price.
So, to level up, you must sacrifice your hard-earned in-game currency.
If you go for the Brawler class, I’d recommend enhancing your Vitality and Strength stats.
Stargazers can opt for the Mind stats since Magic Spells are your primary attack style.
you’ve got the option to find Helenya outside Oxnevylle’s manor.
Fight, Fight, Fight!
Boss battles inThe Last Faithare intense and require a lot of strategy.
Each boss has distinct attack patterns and weaknesses, requiring you to analyze and exploit these nuances to succeed.
Combat is a hack-and-slash affair with a blend of melee weapons, including scythes and whips.
The game has a surprising amount of variety with its weapons.
For instance, apply oil to your blade to give it elemental powers.
If you’re defeated in battle, you lose all your Nycrux.
And if you use a save point, it respawns your enemies.
