![]() Thankfully, any Ergo you drop when dying to a boss will appear outside the boss’ arena. It’s a risk vs reward system that makes corpse runs a little more interesting. However, if you do get hit, you can return some of the Ergo to your old body by killing enemies. Every time you get hit on your way to your Ergo, the game will reduce the amount of Ergo you can recover, so it behooves you to rush back to your body, ignoring combat as much as possible. This is pretty common in games like Lies of P, but there is a fun twist to the dropped Ergo mechanic here. You’ll also drop all of the Ergo that you have on you when you die, and will need to pick it back up again by returning to your body. Run, don’t walk, to your dropped Ergo Image: Neowiz/Round8/NoughĮrgo is the currency you gain from killing enemies in Lies of P, and you’ll use it for basically everything - buying new weapons, leveling up your character, etc. You can repeat this process endless times - assuming you survive. Instead, you’ll just need to play carefully until you can get another charge back into your Pulse Cell and heal yourself. This means that spending all of your pulse charges early in a fight isn’t a death sentence. Once you refill the bar, you’ll gain one Pulse Cell charge, but will stop accumulating energy on hits. Once you’ve completely zeroed out your Pulse Cell - as in you no longer have any charges - any damage you deal will slowly charge your Pulse Cell back up. ![]() However, this is not the only way to get Pulse Cell charges back once you’ve spent them to heal yourself. The Pulse Cell is your healing item in Lies of P, and you’ll gain several charges (more as the game goes on) every time you rest at one of the Stargazers. This is one of the best ways to kill bosses and big targets, so pay very close attention to your enemy’s attack patterns so you can block them accurately.ĭon’t be afraid to spend your Pulse Cell charges If you’re able to hit the enemy with a charged attack within a short window, you’ll stagger the enemy, causing them to fall down, opening them up to a massive attack. After enough perfect blocks, your enemy’s health bar will pulse white. On a perfect guard, you’ll receive zero damage from a blocked attack and - even better - you’ll potentially open up your enemy to being staggered. If you time your guard just as you get hit by an enemy attack, you’ll perform a perfect guard. Make sure to time your guards Image: Neowiz/Round8/Nough Sure you can just roll out of the way and take no damage, but you can also accidentally time your dodge wrong and get hit for 100% of the attack instead of just a portion - a portion that you can heal back with Guard Regain! This is another system that just makes guarding better in Lies of P. ![]() Guard Regain gives you a chance to regain some of the health you just lost by going on the offense and attacking your enemy. When you get hit with your guard up, you’ll take a small percentage of the damage (based on your weapon), and gain an effect called Guard Regain. Rolling, on the other hand, is pretty sluggish in our experience, which makes guarding a better offensive and defensive play. Similarly, you can go from an attack to a guard move very quickly in Lies of P. It’s much faster to counter-attack your enemy after blocking an attack with guard. In Lies of P, you can dodge enemy attacks - and you’ll need to when they glow red and become unblockable - but the game incentivizes you to guard with your weapon instead. Lies of P might look like Bloodborne, but it actually has more in common with Sekiro: Shadow’s Die Twice: It’s all about blocking. In this beginner’s guide, we’re going to walk you through nine things you should keep in mind during the opening hours of Lies of P. And, believe it or not, this adaptation rules. Yes, that Pinocchio - the puppet from the Disney movies and the Italian fairytale. Forged in the style of From Software’s titles, Lies of P is full of slow, deliberate combat that demands guarding and dodge rolls.Īlso, it’s called Lies of P because you play as Pinocchio. Lies of P is a delightful game where you battle your way through a London-inspired city called Krat, destroying mechanical puppets.
