With some tactical approach, you can make Mortal Shell play like a nice hack-n-slash game, minimizing its "souls-like" attempts to manufacture unnecessary layers of artificial difficulty.
I have created this guide to help beginner and intermediate players get a grip on the game's combat system, and enjoy the game more. This time, we shall continue mastering my second favorite weapon: Martyr's Blade. In this part of the guide - i shall demonstrate and explain all the tactics and strategies needed to dominate all the major enemies of the game. 100% fool-proof tactics. No exceptions. Every single foe will be slain by the Martyr's Blade.
To wield this giant sword - I chose Solomon, The Scholar - as the player character - due to his greater stamina, which helps for a somewhat better handling of heavy weapons.
The tactics and experiments that i did with this weapon - are all in New Game+, so yes - it will work perfectly fine in this mode.
