Video summary

This Mortal Shell 2 guide demonstrates a method to acquire the powerful Great Martyr's Blade weapon very early in the game, approximately twenty minutes after completing the prologue. The primary requirement for this strategy is defeating the first boss, Magdelena Delena, located at the Lady Woods gate accessible from the initial beacon in the open world. Although the boss utilizes various area-of-effect attacks that can be dodged, she is considered quite straightforward to defeat even with low levels and minimal upgrades. Upon her defeat, players must cleanse the resulting beacon to gain access to over eggs, which are essential for clearing a specific corruption blockage later in the journey. After securing the necessary resources and clearing the corruption, the player follows a specific path through a village and into a well to reach a dungeon-like area accessed via a portal. Inside this new zone, the objective is to navigate past traps involving floor pads that trigger wall-mounted arrows and defeat several enemies, including a large gangly foe. The guide highlights a crucial mechanic where players must lure the large enemy into a specific cell area by kiting him through gates. Once inside, pressing a button on the wall locks the gate behind the player, trapping the dangerous enemy in a separate room while allowing safe access to the rest of the dungeon. The final step involves dealing with the trapped large enemy who is now locked behind the gate. While firearms are ineffective against him because they only damage the gate structure, the Great Martyr's Blade can be used to attack him from behind safely. The only caution required is to avoid standing too close when he glows and extends spikes from his armor. After eliminating this threat, a previously sealed gate on the opposite side of the room opens, revealing the location of the Great Martyr's Blade. This process allows players to obtain one of the game's best weapons at a very low level, effectively cheeseing the progression system to gain a significant advantage early on.

In this Mortal Shell 2 video, I bring you a complete guide on how to get the incredible heavy weapon of the Great Martyr's Blade super early in the game, more or less 20 minutes after you've got past the prologue. And the best thing about this is, guys, I'll showcase you how you can cheese the boss in order to get this weapon. Let's go. How's it going, guys? My name's DP Jen. If you do enjoy the video, leave me a like. It really helps out. And if you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. So, what is an absolutely super powerful weapon easily capable of almost one-tapping those minor enemies, the Great Martyr's Blade is a weapon that, although it's slower to swing, it hits so hard. So, with time combat, knowing what you're doing, this is definitely one of the best weapons in the game. And I'm going to show you how you can get this thing super, super early. The only single requirement to get this is you need to defeat possibly the first boss in the game in uh Magdelena, Delena, uh the lady woods. I say this because I believe you need to have enough over eggs to clear out a curse. Um and this clears a path for you to move forward in getting this weapon. But again, this boss is super, super easy, too. So, yeah. Now, if you don't know where uh Magdelena is located, she is a boss that you can just run to from the very first beacon within the open world. And you see me do this on screen now. So, she's located within this gate which you have to enter. Now, along the path to this boss, there are beacons that you will run to. And I'll show you where they are. Now, what I always recommend you cleansing all beacons, so don't skip that. I also recommend as well, guys, exploring. Now, you can do this before or after you come to this boss and get this sword. That's completely up to you. But I always recommend you don't skip on those cleansing of the beacons. Do that straight away, people. >> So when you get to this boss, you can use a someone, but you really don't have to. I don't think it's needed, but that's up to you. The boss is quite straightforward. She uses many AoE attacks, which you can avoid, and you can then lay down that damage between her attacks. At first, I thought I'd struggle with this boss, but it's quite easy to do after a few attempts. I did this literally right off the bat, people, with barely any levels. So yeah, that's the first thing I did. Now, but on defeating this boss, you want to cleanse the beacon that appears. This will give you the over and a cutscene, and then guys, you return to Marrow Keep, and here I recommend you go into the over egg room and siphon those collected eggs, people. >> I'm glad the lady shall not trouble us anymore. >> Well done. >> Okay, so from this point, guys, you now want to push forward to getting this amazing weapon. So, from the very first beacon within the open world in the uh Widow's Overlook, follow the path I take on screen now to this next beacon. Okay, so from this next beacon, guys, you want to follow the path I take now. This is where you come to that point where that corruption needs to be cleared. You'll get the option when you move close to it. This is why I believe you need to get those over eggs and defeat that first boss. I could be wrong here, but I did read along that this was indeed the case. So, after you remove that corruption, guys, push forward and follow the path I take into this village, and then you'll come to this well, which you want to enter. So, once you're down here, guys, again, this is a place I do ex- well, I expect you to explore. I think you should explore. Now, you can do this after you've got this weapon. That's your choice though. So, once you're down here, guys, follow the path I take on screen. Now, you want to stay up top, and you want to come across these platforms. So, you will eventually come to this small corridor room here with an annoying enemy in here. Here on the wall on your right, there's a button you need to press. You press this button, it opens a gate, which we need to take the path into. So, upon doing this, guys, follow all the path I take on screen now into that unlocked gate. Here, you'll come to this point where you need to be careful. There are pads on the floor, which if you or enemies stand on them, arrows are fired out of walls. You can just run by them though, but just be careful. So, running past them, follow the path I take, and you need to come down to uh this other corridor, too. Then, at the end of this corridor, guys, there is a rope, which leads you out of this place, which you want to take. Okay, so once you are out of this place, here, you want to trigger any nearby beacon, which follow where I go on screen now, guys. Um it's important because if you do accidentally die, you don't have to run all this way back. So, you just come and trigger this beacon. So, once you have this beacon done, head back to where we exited that well. >> [screaming] [groaning] >> So, from this point, guys, you want to enter this dungeon-type area through this portal. Here, guys, run down, take the lift down, and interact with this object. This teleports you to this cell-type place. >> When you're here, guys, firstly break the lock and take out this big old gangly enemy. Then any stragglers that may be wondering around. Also, loot this place while you are here, guys. I don't believe you can come back here once you've done this actual this part with getting this weapon. Then, guys, break into this cell and press this button on the wall. This unlocks this gate. >> [groaning] >> So, once you've opened this gate, guys, you will notice some strangly ass enemies and someone who definitely ate all the pies. He does not skip a meal. Here, guys, what you want to do is stay inside of these cells and kite these enemies, especially that big guy, into this cell area. And once you get him in here, guys, you run through that gate into where that fat dude initially was. What will happen here, guys, is that the gate will drop, locking the big guy behind the gate. From this point, guys, you just to take out this stringy folk. And once you've done this, guys, you can then just hit this big dude from behind the gate, and he barely can do any damage to you. The only thing you will have to be careful of is when he kind of glows and he brings spikes out of his armor. That can hit you if you're too close, but other than that, guys, you can just hit him with your sword. What I will say is your um your gun, your uh firearm won't do any damage to him. It kind of like hits the gate and doesn't do anything to us, but the sword you can attack him with. So, guys, just take him out. Once you've done this, a gate on the other side of the room will indeed open. Within here, guys, is this weapon. And there you have it. It is as simple as that. People, how you get one of the best weapons in the game super super early. I did this literally, guys, at like a level five or six. Probably a little higher, but nothing crazy. You can do this way lower if you need to. So, yeah. Guys, if you enjoyed the video, leave it a like. It really helps out. If you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. And hopefully, guys, I'll see you on that next one.
