As is typical of most Megami Tensei games, there are a few ways to power up in Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army. Players can level up Raidou and his demon companions like a typical RPG progression system. Contracting demons is a good way to increase strength, too, as they can give Raidou some active and passive skills.
7 Beginner Tips For Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army
From battle tips to fusion selections, these are a few Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army essentials for newcomers to the game.
In Chapter Two, players will also learn how to use Sword Alchemy, which is one of the best ways to boost Raidou’s power. They can make new swords, lances, and axes, and upon each creation, players will earn more Combat and Sword Skills in Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army. Which skill should players prioritize as soon as possible? Let’s find out.
8 Carom Striker
Strike Randomly On The Battlefield
- Weapon: Muramasa (Sword)
Carom Striker sounds very close to Capcom Striker, although Capcom had nothing to do with Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army. Instead, Carom Striker will send Raidou flying wildly across the battle area, targeting foes randomly with slash attacks.
It’s a good way to dodge attacks, along with getting an edge in damage with some decent hits. Players can get this skill if they craft the third sword, Muramasa, which is a Japanese sword of legend in real life and has also appeared in other RPGs like Final Fantasy 10 for Auron.
7 Confinement Adagio
Increase Capture Levels
- Weapon: Kotetsu (Sword)
The process of recruiting a demon in battle is called Confinement, and Raidou will use objects called Tubes to do it. Players can think of Tubes like Pokeballs in the Pokemon series.
Confinement Adagio is a skill that can make recruiting demons easier in Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army. Players just need to craft the second sword, Kotetsu, to get this useful ability, and then demons won’t be able to resist Raidou.
6 Devil’s Trick
Increase Critical Hit Rate From Back Attacks
- Weapon: Nagamichi (Axe)
In battle, players can set their demon allies to Safeguard, meaning they can’t attack but also won't receive damage. As Raidou, players can dodge roll, or jump away form enemy attacks, and perform a counter ability that allows Raidou to get behind a foe.
The 7 Best Changes In Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army
The changes made to Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army are transformative and vastly improve the experience of the original game.
When players master this back attack, they should unlock the fourth axe, Nagamichi, to get its Devil’s Trick skill. Devil’s Trick can increase their critical hit rate from back attacks, meaning players can do some extra damage if they manage to master the art of stealth.
5 Empty Wave
Attack A Small Area With Physical Power
- Weapon: Bizen-Osafune (Sword)
Empty Wave is one of the most useful skills players can unlock, and it's attached to the very first sword upgrade, Bizen-Osafune. Empty Wave, true to its name, is a physical-based wave attack that can attack enemies surrounding Raidou.
It’s the perfect skill to use when there are tons of enemies on screen, like in some of the various challenge fights, including Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army’s many Aril Rifts. The skill isn’t as effective against solo enemies or bosses, but that’s when players should swap to other skills.
4 Exorcising Shell
A Decent Gun Blast
- Weapon: Himezuru (Spear)
One of the newest additions to Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army is the ability to enter a shooting gallery with Raidou’s revolver during battle. Some enemies are weak to gun-based damage, which is why the weapon is nice to have, but it does nearly no damage otherwise.
There are other gun-based attacks beyond Raidou’s revolver, like Exorcising Shell, which does significantly more damage. Players can unlock this skill via the first spear, Himezuru.
3 Magnetize
Restore MAG Energy
- Weapon: Type 32 Gunto (Axe)
Most abilities in battle use MAG, or magical energy, which is represented at the bottom of the screen by the green bar. It’s like MP in other RPGs, except it has more uses in Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army.
How to Switch Demons in Raidou Remastered
Raidou can have two demons fight alongside him in Raidou Remastered: Mystery of the Souless Army; here's how to switch them out in and out of combat.
Players can have their allies use MAG for spells or to capture demons via Confinement. Magnetize is a skill that can recover MAG in battle if players make the Type 32 Gunto axe, which is an easy way to get more MAG during combat.
2 Phoenix Step
Increase Dodge Skills
- Weapon: Kanesada (Spear)
Phoenix Step will give Raidou’s dodge ability more range, meaning that enemies will have a harder time connecting their attacks with Raidou during his dodge rolls. Players can get this helpful skill if they make the second spear, Kanesada.
There’s nothing complicated about the skill, and it’s not flashy compared to some other skills listed. However, action RPGs like Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army need a good dodge ability if players hope to survive the game’s many trials.
1 Zeal
Cure Status Effects
- Weapon: Kiyotsune (Axe)
A good dodge can only get players so far, as it is inevitable that they will be hit. Some of these hits may even inflict status effects on Raidou that can confuse the senses. That’s where a skill like Zeal comes in handy, as it can cure status ailments in a flash, similar to demon spells like Patra.
Players can get Zeal if they craft the third axe, Kiyotsune, which is a good weapon in its own right in Raidou Remastered: The Mystery Of The Soulless Army.
