Mortal Shell Guide: How to Relinquish All Shells and Get Achievements for It
Want to instantly level up Mortal Shell difficulty? In this guide, we'll show you how to drop all shells to make things harder.
Although Mortal shell - not a trifle, veterans Dark Souls its complexity (or lack of it) has been repeatedly stated, calling it an excellent starting point for beginners in this type of game. This is not bad at all, but there is a way to make the game much more difficult, and it has to do with the ability to abandon your shell.
The rejection of shells makes Mortal shell much harder and perfect for those looking for more challenging challenges. In this guide, we'll explain what it means, how to do it, and give you other tips to make the process easier for you.
What happens when you give up your shell?
Rejection of the shell means that you forfeit the ability to use any shells for the rest of the game . Remember how at the beginning of the game you become a Foundling without a shell? This is how you will play the game if you decide to forego the main good of the game.
This will turn your Foundling into Dark obsidian form . While you won't be able to use the skills and abilities associated with any of the four armors (Harros, Solomon, Thiel, or Eredrim), Obsidian Dark From has its pros and cons.
The upside of dropping shells is that you get a huge stamina gain and get back on your feet very quickly. All Resin you earn can be spent on items and weapon upgrades, as Shell upgrades are useless.
The downside of not wearing shells is that your health is insanely low in Obsidian Dark Form. In fact, in this mode, everything kills with one hit . This means you won't be able to fortify either, and any progress you've made with your skins so far will be removed, including upgrades and any related flare.
In addition to making the game more difficult, there are three trophies/achievements associated with giving up your shells:
- ☩ Forever Alone — Complete the game without even wearing a shell.
- ☩ Life is Suffering — complete the game in Dark obsidian form
- ☩ Nihilist — Renounce humanity
