- Mortal Shell's new "The Virtuous Cycle" introduced a roguelike mode called the "Reverie" - and it's tough! In this step-by-step guide I show you exactly what to do to get overpowered early, enabling you to complete your first full run, aka a "cycle", without breaking a sweat. Enjoy!
Its so weird that they picked one shade for Eredrim and made it 10x as powerful as all the other ones. Game balance is jacked in this DLC.
Wanted to share a seed that I found really helpful for farming: 819964. Spawns you on the other side of the tunnel to the right of the Grisha.
Head straight ahead, ppen the chest behind the logs next to the camp, crawl through the hole and fight the Grisha, open the chest it's guarding and then run down the tunnel to pick up two glimpses lying on the floor. Nets about 60 glimpses in less than 5 minutes.
In the other direction , there's also a 22 glimpse item on the lower part heading towards Seat of Infinity, and a nascent tar (2500 tar) and golden bell in a chest in the camp near the ramp down to the entrance to Seat.
Thanks great info , I was lost on how the DLC worked until this vid
Awesome, glad to have helped! Cheers!
@@fuzzybearbarian let us know of any other great perk and stat areas ?
@@mussman3000 The only time it's worth sharing a seed is when you have either zero upgrades on a runic wall (like in this vid) or max upgrades on everything, as the instincts can change depending on your upgrades. And by the time you are maxed out on everything, you've probably already run quite a few cycles and are getting bored and ready to move on. I'm guessing most people who run multiple cycles will stop once they've done all shells, probably.
@@fuzzybearbarian do all 5 shells have different shade stats? like the butcher shade?
@@mussman3000 Yes, each shell has multiple shades:
FOUNDLING:
Super Meatboi: starts cycle with the Super Hard Instinct.
Aurum Ascendant: Enemies killed have a 30% increased chance to drop an item
Obsidian: Starts the cycle with 100 health which can't be increased, the Sprint Cost Instinct, Movement Speed +100 and, Runic Syphon +80. The foundling slowly loses health over time.
HARROS:
Sun Vassal: Harros starts the cycle with a Tar Drop +20 Instinct and with 10,000 additional Tar which is lost upon dying.
Burden Keeper: Harros has +10% chance to find Harden and Kick instincts from pillars.
Corrupted: Starts the cycle with the Unbreakable Instinct, it cannot be replaced. Harros suffers +100% damage from any source.
SOLOMON:
The Count: Solomon has +10% chance to find Combat and Ballistazooka Instincts from Pillars.
Kvlt: Solomon starts the cycle with Runic Syphon +15 and Fire Damage Resist +50 Instincts.
Corrupted: Solomon starts the cycle with the Resolve Gain + Instinct and with +1 Max Resolve. Solomon's Resolve Gain is blocked while fighting Bosses.
EREDRIM:
Yellow King: Eredrim starts the cycle with a +10 to all the Resist Instincts.
Anointed Butcher: Eredrim starts the cycle with a Damage +20 Instinct.
Corrupted: Eredrim starts the cycle with the Regeneration Instinct, it cannot be replaced. Eredrim is no longer healed by Pillars.
TIEL:
Slytherin: Tiel has +10% chance to find Dodge and Roll Instincts from Pillars.
Serpent's Lust: Tiels starts the cycle with a Poision Damage Resist +110 Instinct.
Corrupted: Tiel starts the cycle with Poison Damage Resist +100 and Max Stamina + Instincts but receives +100% damage from Fire and Freeze.
HADERN:
Fool's Gold: Hadern has +10% chance to find Parry and Riposte Instincts from Pillars
Crimson Herald: Hadern starts the cycle with the Finishing Blow Instinct.
Corrupted: Hadern starts the cycle with the Enhanced Parry instinct, which cannot be replaced and Unparryable Attack Resist +50. Hadern receives +200% damage from parryable attacks.

Even with a philosophy of other games, they have their own originality
I just got this game and I think it is pretty cool. Looking forward to messing around in this mode, it seems like what the chalice dungeons should have been.
Yes, I feel the same way. If you want to get to doing just the Reverie faster, I made a fast walkthrough guide for the base game here: ua-cam.com/play/PLsxfoGQwyeP7cn7F5aZXJ037aLb8ma8Wg.html
Hey man your guide was super helpful but I just wanted to let you know there is a red piller with 2 enemies right next to where you spawn in that when you kill them it turns white and is free
Nice! I don't remember if I ignored it or missed it. Probably just missed it. Cheers!
Man, I've been subscribed for a long time and only now you appear. Thanks 😊
In your feed? Pretty weird that. UA-cam is weird man.
thank you that was very helpful. this is my first soulslike game that I could get into and I was pretty sad when I finished the game
ng+ also makes you take damage even when hardened and makes enemies stronger and that sucks so this is perfect for me
Easier pillar for runs on that seed. Directly behind you at the start with two jumper enemies. It's a guarded pillar, so kill those two and it unlocks
first priority is the 3 free pillar upgrade
just having 3 free pillars added to the map per area is incredibly good
otherwise id say then order u said after that is the way to go
also theres a bug w unlocks to where the start instinct u get from getting x kills w the weps doesn’t work somehow till u hit the max level of it (epic)
also for runs run the horos w his sun worshiper or w.e its called skin cuz it gives u extra tar pickup and it also gives u 10k at the start that while u lose if u die if u beat a boss u can spend it so thats 10k plus whatever u get from the run
its incredible for getting stuff maxed once u get used to the mode
This was helpful. Thank you
Goddam. This was incredibly helpful!
If you use the axe katakana skill you can slip through the fog wall
Upgrading starting resolve is more important than tar kept imo weapon skills and parrys make the grisha fight way faster
Damn! That's a nice strategy.
Thanks and yep! You end up with a super strong character, a good chance at multiple lives if you need them so long as you keep accessing pillars after being knocked out of your shell, and the ability to easily farm for more upgrades without worrying about dying. And the best thing is, anyone can do this regardless of skill or experience with the game, which is great because this roguelike expansion is really really fun. The more people who get to enjoy it the better!
Great and informative 👍
Great guide thx
thank you for this man :)
Thank you @fuzzy you helped me big time.
Watched your video couple days ago... now I'm almost 100% trophied it, just foundling and obsidian to do and I'm done. Any tips or seed numbers for foundling/ obsidian runs?
Glad to have helped! My memory on all that is pretty much gone now lol. I'm sure there's a list of seed numbers on Reddit or something, but yeah, Wo Long is consuming all of my memory right now lol.
@@fuzzybearbarian hahaha awesome. OK buddy. Well done foundling last night. Now just obsidian... I try not to use guides. Only one I used was yours! Saved me a lot of time!
@@fuzzybearbarian wo long dynasty any good???
@@GreekAndro Absolutely love it. Most fun I've had playing a game in a long time.
The chest behind the wood pile doesnt spawn the huge amounts of tar anymore, making this much less effective.
Damn, they patched that? Well that sucks.
thank you dude
No probs, cheers!
Damn!! Thank you! I was doing full runs for hours and hours trying to get tar, glimpses, and looking for the Grisha’s to upgrade. This saved me so much time and frustration. Do you happen to know what pillars have the tokens for that specific number?
Excellent. Re your question, I don't really understand it. What do you mean by "pillars have the tokens for that specific number?"
@@fuzzybearbarian You gave a specific number that I used- 869148. The starting point is the same and so are all the pillars and what you get from them each time. One has a token to get in the boss area or you can spend 5000 tar. Just curious if you know what pillar had the token to get into the area? I have only got one token in a week worth of playing and that was from a Radom cycle. Don’t mind using my tar but been using it for upgrades. Your cycle number keeps everything the same. Guess just need to find the pillar with the token.
@@shanec3555 Sorry, can't remember exactly. I pretty much just run around opening everything until I get it. You've made me think about memorizing a token/pillar layout on maps for a speedrun though!
@@fuzzybearbarian Yea. That cycle number keeps everything the same and found the token pillar which is always the same one and just run straight to it. Kinda a cheat but it’s like learning a whole new game and where enemies/items are. The random cycles…all is different and just throws you in a different mess each time because all are different. I have not completed a cycle yet, however, if one does not follow your video with the new weapon, upgrades, etc., it will be almost impossible to complete.
@@shanec3555 The good news is it's not really a cheat because once you complete a cycle you get the seed from that cycle, but only once. So basically you can memorize a cycle for farming or something, but for completing it, completing it once means it's time to do a different one.
Wtf I can't bring over my maxed weapon to DLC?? then definitely going to follow this video cause that's BS
My anointed butcher perk is different as well, instead of 20% damage it’s +10 to all the resist instincts
The Yellow King shade gives +10 to all resist instincts. Might be some kind of glitch going on if you're seeing the Yellow King perks for the Anointed Butcher shade.
I just bought the game and the dlc, can you bring out things from the reverie into the main game? I'm currently grinding in the hammer weapon location
No, the two modes are separate.
Thx. Did you had issue finishing 449952? I cannot find the boss token at Dim Gate :(
Nope, I had no issue with that specifically. I did have some bugs though, such as the bosses at the end freezing forcing me to restart the final boss fight a few times.
@@fuzzybearbarian thx. The boss token was in Eternal Narthex for me, not in Dim Gate. I should have suspected that much, it was right in the middle of the level, visible from all corners, and surrounded by a mob. First cycle done, phew. I got lucky to get the Unbreakable instinct, helpful for final boss for sure.
@@sebastienbarre Hopefully you'll sail through bug free!
Just a question how do you get the DLC because I got the game for free with PS+ and didn't know if that affected it.
You have to buy it now, though it's very cheap I believe. I got it free (it was made available for free in its first 7 days as a way of saying thank you to existing players for supporting the game).
Yeah, I just looked and its 6 bucks
You sound just like Beau Miles.
Does anything acquired from the Reverie carry over to the main game?
I'm afraid not. I think of it as a completely separate game (I personally feel the Reverie is how the game should always be played, it just feels right to me).
For the love of all that is holy and unholy. Just answer one question. Do these bonuses you unlock become permanent? Or do they go away when I leave DLC and go back to main quest. Yes or no am I just wasting time if I am looking to level up?
Ok can someone tell me what point the reverie stands for?
I'm not sure what you mean by your question?
Apologies I don’t know why auto correct keeps gutting me…(trust me it did it again) but what I’m trying to ask is what is the point of reverie… aside from slight story (hella interesting if I don’t say so myself) but what point does it serve???
@@johnsmith-ln8je Think of Reverie as being a game unto itself. It's separate to the main game, is structured differently, and turns the original game into something more akin to a rogue-like. It also expands on the original game by giving you multiple ways to replay but have those ways be different in how they play out, since random seeds in the Reverie change not only the drops you get, but the shape of the world as well.
Basically, the developers gave those of us who love Mortal Shell a new way to play the game over and over and have it be somewhat fresh each time. You could say the 'point' was to give us more fun via increased replayability.
I personally prefer Reverie to the main game. I love it and feel like it's exactly how Mortal Shell should really be played.
The story can you use the axatana
Yes, but you have to unlock it by defeating all Hadern's.
way better than optinoob's video.
I dont even start where you start with that number seed
That's odd, you should. I have no idea what's up with that.
Did you pick the same options as me, including Eredrim as your character?
@@fuzzybearbarian can't remember
So everything has to be exact? Not just number
I already unlock hardem and axatana
You farm Bunch tars with that number?
Sorry Didn't Watch full video since the layout is different for me
Hoping Patches don't have anythin' to do with It
@@Milton94 I think it does depend on shell. Seeds are meant to be community shared so I doubt they patched it. Try it with Eredrim and see how you go, I'd be interested to hear.
@@fuzzybearbarian It Worked Now.
The seed is 869148 .
My anointed butcher perk is different
The Anointed Butcher Shade perk is the same for all Reverie runs, for all players, and that's +20 damage. If yours is different, it's gotta be a bug. I'd be interested to see what your Reverie start mission screen says when you select it if you want to post an image.
HOW THE HELL DO I RETURN BACK FROM THAT FUCKING PLACE?!?! :S
Interact with the statue of Sester Genessa. It's on the first floor.
@@fuzzybearbarian I did but nothing happend ;o ;s so i tried to exit to main menu and back in the game again and that took me back..
869148
thank you
