Bloodstained Ritual of the Night Eternal Blue Moves
As you explore the rooms and maze-like corridors of the castle in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, you'll begin to discover powerful combat Techniques that can be used to deal extra damage to your enemies. Whether you find them in a bookcase, or just figure them out on your own, Techniques are well worth learning, but finding the bookcases for each can be time consuming. To help you out we've put together a list of all Techniques in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night so that you can start mastering them right away.
All Techniques in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
As states above, Techniques are typically learned by finding bookcases in the castle. These will tell you the input as well as which weapons you can master the skill with. However, you can still learn the Technique and add it to your Archive by performing the action even if you've not found the right bookcase.
Techniques are tied to certain weapon classes, but before you can use them with any weapon in that class, you first need to master the technique with certain weapons. Mastering a technique is as simple as using it repeatedly to damage enemies. This will fill up the mastery meter , and when it's full you'll be able to use the technique with any weapons in that weapon class. To get you started, here are all the Techniques in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night that we know of so far, as well as the weapons you need to master them with. If a technique has no mastery meter, it can only be used with that specific weapon.
Note: Arrows refer to the directional input required, while Attack refers to the default attack button on your platform of choice (X on Xbox, Square on PS4). The directions must be input quickly before pressing the attack button.
