The fervent heart penance was fun, having fervor regenerate at a reasonable rate and using the right prayers made my runs faster. The game only got hard for me while fighting the final boss. It really helped with the Amanecida fights. I’m currently trying to finish the bleeding heart penance.
Fucking hell finally, every search I done brought up useless information. Just spent 30 minutes trying to find out what the Penitence rewards are. Since I'm playing the PS4 version, and as far as I'm aware only the Steam and Switch versions have been patched/fixed to receive these rewards. I'm guessing/hoping the PS4 and Xbox Patch come soon. I'm planning on doing the Penitent modes soon, thanks for the info.
Glad the video helped you out, but too bad you have to wait for the patch on consoles to get the rewards. Are there any other obscure Blasphemous details that you found difficult to look up? I've been trying to think of other video ideas for this game that haven't been done yet.
@@Mordrukk666 most stuff online from what I've seen is all outdated, showing older map and areas. So realistically, a content creator for Blasphemous should do everything again. Even some quest rules have changed.
Thanks for the suggestion. I've made a full 100% walkthrough for v2.0.27 ( link: th-cam.com/play/PL0Vwzc2uM9WUs5cjZsLSsclEqooJ-VgPb.html ) With all of that content, I can now edit it down to distinct quests and such for additional videos. Was there a quest you tried looking up that was outdated? If so, I'll start with that one first.
man seriously I really hated the penitance of true guilt it was hard I had to beat the other two before that one to stand a chance all bosses were fine but Escribar was particular nasty in this mode don't know why the spell of invincibility sometimes does not work and you can still get damaged it was suppposed to block all damage for a some short time but seems a bug still I was getting damaged by escribar spells at least the skin for true guilt looks great
I finished all 3 penances, while beating all Amanecidas (with each penance). I strongly disagree that True Guilt is the hardest, because you dont have damage debuff. Unwavering faith is the hardest
@@andijosh4771 you have 2 life steals (1 prayer and 1 mea culpa heart). besides, after finishing Bleeding Heart you would get a passive ability for your flasks which would heal you over time. So no, True Guilt isn't as challenging as Unwavering Faith.
@@andijosh4771 The only way you can make True Guilt as hard as Unwavering Faith is by starting NG+ without 7th level mea culpa and without decent items/prayers. Having your dps cut in half denies any healing you could possibly have.
have you done voicework on stuff like trailers or commercials before? your voice sometimes sounds like it could work for that, the way you say heart is cool
Hey @ClusterHopper thanks for the feedback. I haven't done any professional voice work, but I have done metal vocals for 20 years so that probably has something to do with my intonation. Check out abaroth.bandcamp.com And if you dig my voice take a look at my other videos and consider subscribing
I think Bleeding Heart is actually the most op. You can use the Pray the gives you life steal on hits which allows you to basically always be at full health and it ignores anything that lowers your defenses since you’ll never lose more then 1 health orb per hit no matter what.
@@spacewizardpip1111 You also can equip the Heart of Oils for basically free melee dps increase, since you don't have defense to loose. It also allows you to replace defensive beads with other beads without losing anything.
Unwavering Faith seems like'a reward not penalty cause your fervour constantly regenerates ! You only need enhancing prayer rosaries and this lightning spell from Perpetua!
@@lexbeltran1354 Just remember that in this mode your sword damage is decreased by half.It means harder boss fights . If you want killing bosses almost instantly but harder levels consider true guilt mode. To be honest every of this modes changes something in the gameplay and is fun to play.
.... Would have much preferred bleeding heart bead if instead of giving regen on bile use it would have given point like health without a downside of slow healing (or even without that) as essentialy it would give ultimate defence as any hit including even those that would take away half your health would instead take only one hit point and with more then 4 hitpoinst and enemies already dealing more damage on ng+...
Yeah that's what I figured the bleeding heart one would have done - turn the HP bar into notches, like during the run. The health regen is still a good perk though, and a better trade off than notches for getting through the first few bosses early on.
Hey Space Wizard, yes if you equip both of those penitence rewards, you'll regain both HP and MP over time (HP regains after a heal). I wouldn't say the MP regen is really worth it though, as donating 20k to the church nets you full MP regeneration whenever you use a bonfire. Considering most prayers will be exclusively used in boss fights, you can always go into them with full MP as opposed to waiting for the bead to get you to 100%. It's more beneficial if you like spamming the ranged attack, as it basically negates the MP cost for that in seconds.
@@Mordrukk666 It’s after the heal? Hmm, it means you gotta wait a split second. I think Sorrowful Heart is kind of the worst of the 3 NG+ rewards I’ll probably get it anyway but I dunno.
@@spacewizardpip1111 Ah apologies, I misunderstood part of your question. The Sorrowful Heart bead converts HP flasks to MP ones, so it would negate the Suffering Heart effect to continue healing after using a flask... Though maybe it will still slowly add HP after the flask is used to refill MP? Could be totally broken if you use those two together
@@Mordrukk666 Oh lol it’s okay! It happens I misread/misinterpret stuff all the time. They could be broken together but thinking about it the two of them probably won’t ever be better than using a flask to regen HP anyway. Still, it’s something to definitely try out.
@@spacewizardpip1111 Well now you have a reason to get all 3 rewards - to report back with your findings about how broken combinations of their use truly are! Thanks again for watching man, take it easy!
They're only available for your existing save. Going from NG+ to NG++ will give you the bead you were awarded it NG+. You can't start a new save with them in storage
but the penitence rewards are actually useless, because by the time you have them, you have already 100% the game and mastered it to such a degree that you don't need the upsides the rewards give anymore for anything.
You don't need to get the "good" ending or the "true" ending to get the rewards - they're provided after the credits when you beat the last boss, regardless of what ending you're going for.
There was a bug in an older version of the game that caused this to happen, but was patched almost 2 years ago. Is your game up to date? If so try sending a bug report to the devs
@@Mordrukk666 Actually, I was sleepy and didn't notice it was in my beads inventory. If I choose to abandon the active penetence, do I get to keep the blue reward?
Hey Diego - for me, the upgraded flasks were always worth it. I had to look this up since I couldn't exactly remember, but for bleeding heart the upgrades improve regeneration time, so you'll heal faster over time vs more health all at once.
I beat the bleeding heart and took it off for the amanecidas before the patch and I didnt get the bead i have the skin tho I'm not doing that again and I might quit because of it not because I'm salty (I am) but because I earned that shit
i just wanne get the true ending so i chose no penitence, the game is tough enough as it is for me😅 hope i can see the true 3nd before 2 comes out, took me a while to kill the first end boss and get the believers ending
No new events, the beads just make NG+ incredibly easy with regenerating health and mana. Swap out the health regen bead with the guilt one to spam prayers for bosses. They effectively obliterate the difficulty curve for the game.
@@billyburger100 Painted wooden bead recovers health when destroying objects, hollow pearl recovers fervor when destroying objects, embers of a broken star increases fervor recovered when attacking. Also there's a sword heart that heals you for every kill, Molten Heart of Boiling blood Sword Core for the Mea Culpa.
It's really up to your play style, but what I did was the health penitence first, then the fervor/mana penitence , and finally the guilt penitence. Health was tough until you get some upgrades for HP, but by the end of the game it was easy. The recharging fervor/mana penitence really forces you to rely more on prayers than your standard attack, and once you learn the best prayers you'll be in better shape for the guilt penitence run.

I chose Unwavering Faith first simply because the prayer bead you get at the end makes the other 2 much easier.

Is there damage de buff for bleeding heart penance?
No I think the fervor penance had a decrease in damage output for the player.

What if you choose no penitence?
There are no modifiers, but no rewards either
The Sorrowful Heart beed does it stack with the One that lets your flasks heal you over time? If so that’s a cool way to regen both HP and MP

Will receiving any or none of the "choose your penetance" affect any of the endings I receive
Nope, there are no new endings in NG+, just the beads as rewards for completing the penitences
i've completed two penitence fervour and bleeding heart but they still don't show up in my inv idk whats going on
X2
Someone said you have to beat every boss including all the dlc bosses
How do I collect these rewards.. Do I have to play game three more times
Yep one reward per penitence run
In my country the patch not yet come,I cannot use the rewards
What happen if I chose no one?
Choose no penitence, get no reward. Kind of a waste to play NG+ without one
@@Mordrukk666 yeah, i chose it bc I want to get a few trophys only xddd, thanks
how can i get the beads added to another game? i need to create them after beating the penitence? or they just appear in the games i already have?

Do you have to complete the game with the real ending or just the normal ending to get the rewards?
You don't need to get the "good" ending or the "true" ending to get the rewards - they're provided after the credits when you beat the last boss, regardless of what ending you're going for.
Do you need to beat the game each time with the penitence of your choice?
Yes, and you can keep ascending the same save file to get through all 3 of them (NG+, NG++, NG+++)
@@Mordrukk666 Then my only gripe is that you do not keep the same level of health and fervor you earned in a previous save. But thank you.
Me gustó el de fervor, cuando te dan el relicario y lo pones se llena mucho más rápido, escomo si tuvieras magia infinito.

Is it worth to improve bile flask on bleeding heart mode? I mean I can use one per orb... Pls let me know
Hey Diego - for me, the upgraded flasks were always worth it. I had to look this up since I couldn't exactly remember, but for bleeding heart the upgrades improve regeneration time, so you'll heal faster over time vs more health all at once.
@@Mordrukk666 really thank you for the info, I was thinking that the improvement was for faster recovery but i was not sure.
I beat the bleeding heart and took it off for the amanecidas before the patch and I didnt get the bead i have the skin tho I'm not doing that again and I might quit because of it not because I'm salty (I am) but because I earned that shit
You have to beat every boss including the DLC bosses with the Penitence to get the beads.
Hi, you play on xbox one? If I pay you you can finish the dlc stir of dawn for me? I want all extra skins
i just wanne get the true ending so i chose no penitence, the game is tough enough as it is for me😅 hope i can see the true 3nd before 2 comes out, took me a while to kill the first end boss and get the believers ending
so what happens after that? any new event triggered by the beads together?
No new events, the beads just make NG+ incredibly easy with regenerating health and mana. Swap out the health regen bead with the guilt one to spam prayers for bosses. They effectively obliterate the difficulty curve for the game.
@@Mordrukk666 oh, alright. just beat bleeding hearts, might as well get the other two.
How can i can complete a penitence?
Select one early on in NG+, then beat the final boss to get the reward
Definitely not worth it as there are beads that do just as good a job refilling health and fevour on attacks. No penitence for me thanks
What are those beads called? Im trying to get as much things as possible before i start a new game plus
The Penitence are worth it for the new color palette alone, the beads are just a bonus, for me at least.
