Get the Bishamon Sword
Fight through all 20 levels
of the Dark Realm. Kill all of the monsters on the 20th level, then
open the treasure box here
to discover the Bishamon Ocarina. Then, in the area just beyond the
second Marcellus boss fight,
use the Ocarina on the bone door here to open it. Then head inside
and claim the prize, a sword
with unlimited magic which will kill any non-boss character in a single
swipe. A powerful ally,
indeed.
Beat Oni Spirits...Unlock
An Arsenal
If you make it past all
12 levels of the extremely challenging Oni Spirits mini-game, you will
unlock
a gameplay option that will
allow you to start the regular game with a wonderful array of toys. Not
only do you get to play
through the game with the Bishamon Sword, but you get unlimited Arrows
and Bullets, and begin with
99 Soul Absorbers in your inventory. In addition, any magic you use
will automatically respawn
after the attack. With this at your disposal, beating the game again
and unlocking everything
else will be a cinch!
Unlock Oni Spirits
If you collect all 20 Flourites
and finish the game, the mini-game Oni Spirits will be unlocked. For
a full description of where
to find each Flourite, read the Flourites section of this guide.
Unlock Onimusha 2 Trailer
Finish the game on any difficulty
to unlock a sneak preview of Onimusha: Warlords 2. When you
go back to the main menu
after saving, go to Special Feature to view the preview footage.
Unlock the Panda Suit
If you collect 10 or more
Flourites during the course of the game, and successfully finish, there
will
be an extra costume available
for Samanosuke when you begin a new game... a cuddly panda suit!
When you restart, select
Samanosuke-Extra to play as the big bear. Note the daisy gauntlet and
stuffed friend in the mucus
pouch. Don't you love being a marsupial? During gameplay, use L2 to
wear the head on or off.
All 20 Flourites
There are 20 special rocks--called
Flourites--stashed throughout the game. Finding them all is difficult,
but will reap great rewards.
If you finish the game with all 20 Flourites, a mini-game called "Oni Spirits"
will be unlocked.
The Vision Staff, which can
be found near the Bishamon shrine in the West Area, is very helpful in
locating Flourites. As soon
as you possess it, the rare items will shine, making them much easier to
spot. However, you'll have
to find the first nine on your own. Below, you'll find a list of every
single
Flourite in the game.
1. In one of the small alcoves
with brown doors near the Seiryu in the Under Temple area.
2. Just after the boss fight
in the South area, break a couple of urns and search the floor under them
to find the Flourite.
3. In the Keep, after running
into Kaede with Yumemaru, you'll find the Flourite in a little cupboard
over the treasure box near
the stairs.
4. On the upstairs level
of the Keep, through the room just past the red magic door on the catwalk.
Step through the next room
and find the Flourite under the stairs near the treasure box containing
the Arrows.
5. In the upper reaches
of the Keep, you will find a Flourite across from Volume two of the Seiryu
right after the cut scene
where Tokichiru takes off into the night.
6. In the Keep Underground,
head down the second hall of glass-encased red samurai. In the left
corner (near the last samurai),
you'll discover the Flourite.
7. In the Keep Underground,
find a Flourite inside the iron maiden in the same room where you
get the Blue Key.
In the West Area, when playing
as Kaede, find the secret room (use the Gear to enter). In front of
the Buddha statue here is
a Flourite.
9. While playing as Kaede
in the West Area, you will step into a burning room just past the gate
that required the Gold and
Silver Plates. Through the door left of this entrance is a narrow staircase.
Next to the staircase in
a heap of barrels, you'll find the Flourite.
10. In the West area, you'll
find a Flourite just outside the door after obtaining the Vision Staff
with
Samanosuke.
11. In the West area, find
a Flourite on the hill with the sled just outside the castle.
12. In the West Area, you'll
find a Flourite blinking in the path on your way to the room with the
statue (where you got the
Matchlock).
13. In the East Area (with
Samanosuke), atop the roof there is a bell. In the walkway around the
bell is a Flourite.
14. While playing as Samanosuke,
collect the Flourite on the pier just past the Magic Mirror room
in the East Area.
15. In the East Area, just
when you begin playing as Kaede, you will enter a shrine just past the
locked door you pick. A
Flourite is on the floor just to the right of the door.
16. While playing as Kaede
in the East Area, climb a ladder in the bridge house Magic Mirror room.
Destroy the crates here
to find another Flourite.
17. In the East Area, while
playing as Kaede, you can find another Flourite atop a chest in the room
where you get the final
book of the Suzaku.
18. Sixth level of the Dark
Realm
19. Eleventh level of the
Dark Realm
20. Seventeenth level of
the Dark Realm
What's Your Grade?
Onimusha: Warlords allows
you the opportunity to rate your progress, based on a series of points.
The perfect score is 30,
meaning you have to score all available points in three categories:
Time taken to complete
Up to 3 Hours= 10 points
3-4 Hours= 7 points
4-5 Hours= 5 points
5 or more Hours=3 points
Number of demons killed
0-399= 3 points
400-499= 5 points
500-599= 7 points
600 or more= 10 points
Number of souls collected
by the gauntlet
0-34,999= 3 points
35,000-44,999= 5 points
45,000-54,999= 7 points
55,000 or more= 10 points
The points add up as follows:
0-9= D
10-17= C
18-24= B
25-29= A
30= S
If you score a perfect 30
and earn an S rating, Kaede will get a special costume of her own... and
it's quite demonic. Access
it from the same menu as Samanosuke's Panda outfit.
Alternate Costumes
If you want your character
to look a little different, simply complete the game one time and then
start a new game after saving.
You will see a "Normal/Special" option. If you select the Special
option you will appear in
a special panda suit.
Preview for Onimusha 2
After you complete the game
for the first time, it will prompt you to save. Do so, and then start a
new game. View the "Special
Report" to see a small preview of Onimusha 2, which apparently
takes place about 10 years
after the events in this game. |
