Late Game Guide & Tips

This is a late-game guide for Let It Die: Inferno (LID). This covers late-game goals, recommended routes, what to prepare, and other tips when your progress is stuck in LID.

Late Game Goals to Achieve

Defeat Deadnote to Conquer the River of Souls

The late game goal is to defeat Deadnote, the boss of the River of Souls. Defeating Deadnote, the current final boss, and evacuating from the River of Souls is one of the main objectives in this game. Deadnote is extremely tough, so prepare for the fight meticulously.

How to Beat Deadnote

Evacuating From the River of Souls Resets Your Body Rank

When you evacuate from the River of Souls, your Body Rank will be reset to 1. After evacuating, there are various things to do, such as aiming to defeat Deadnote with a different Body, collecting powerful equipment, or aiming for a high Raider Ranking.

Only One Person Can Evacuate in PvEvP Mode

In PvEvP mode, other Raiders may intrude during the battle with Deadnote (up to four have been confirmed). While additional players can make the boss fight easier, only one player can escape using the Escape Pod after the boss is defeated. As a result, you may need to fight other Raiders post-battle to secure your evacuation.

No Problem Escaping in PvE Mode or Duo

In PvE mode, where no other Raiders appear, as well as in the 2-player Duo mode, both players can evacuate safely without any issues.

Recommended Route to Deadnote

From the Northwest of the Central Building

There are multiple Exploration routes to Deadnote. The recommended route is to proceed from the stairs located around the northwest of the building. The path to the Judgment Gates is simple, so you can reach Deadnote quickly.

Best Late Game Preparations

Bring Weapons with Deadnote in Mind

This is a list of recommended weapons to use as your main. Since Deadnote is tough, let's bring Weapons with the Deadnote fight in mind.

Recommended Weapons for Timothy and Milene

The Wheel Blade, which is excellent for both Normal Attacks and Deathblows, is recommended. The Katana, whose area-of-effect attack can hit the Fans that Deadnote summons, and the Hammer, which can inflict massive Damage after destroying Deadnote's Exoskeleton, are also good options.

Recommended Weapons for Pearl

You'll want to bring the Arm, which has a powerful Normal Attack and Deathblow. The Rammer and Dekotora, which can chip away at the Exoskeleton and inflict Status Effects with their multi-hit Deathblow, are also useful in the fight against Deadnote.

Recommended Weapons for Ten

For Ten, it is easier to defeat Deadnote if they use either the Wheel Blade, Hammer, or Arm. Bring the best-performing weapon you have.

Recommended Weapons for Patrick and Sasuke

Since the Odachi's Deathblow restores the Rage Gauge when it hits, it is extremely powerful in the Deadnote fight. However, its attack speed is slow, so you'll want to equip a Wheel Blade, Hammer, or Arm in your other hand.

Other Equipment-Related Preparations

Bring Legendary Rarity Weapons

The enemies that appear in the River of Souls are all very powerful, so bring Legendary Rarity Weapons. Legendary Rarity Weapons can potentially be obtained in Area 2 of the Demon Gate Labyrinth, but if you can't get them, purchase them at the Ant Bazaar.

Counter Humanoids with the Fireworks Shooter

Secure a Fireworks Shooter as a countermeasure against the dangerous Humanoids, which have extremely high Attack. You can safely defeat them by keeping them in check with the Fireworks Shooter's Normal Attack, or by using Guard Breaks Pattern 2, which can be performed with a combination like the Fireworks Shooter and Katana.

How to Use Fireworks Shooter

Equip Feet with +Movement Speed

The Deadnote fight has tight windows for dodging attacks, so equip Feet with "+Movement Speed." The best option is the New Camo Chic Boots with "Movement Speed +20%", and the Tropic Threat Boots or Rockin’Billy Shoes with "Movement Speed +10%" are also recommended.

Core-Related Preparations

Secure 3 or More Rage Gauges

Deadnote's attacks can be canceled with a Deathblow. To be able to instantly use a Deathblow when an attack seems unavoidable or a dangerous attack is coming, secure at least 2, and preferably 3 or more, Rage Gauges. It's important to prioritize getting the "+1 Rage Gauge" Core.

Tips!	Ten, Pearl, and Sasuke can increase their Rage Gauge with Mastery. If you don't want to rely on Core luck, increasing it with Mastery is also an option.

Best Cores to Use

Prioritize Acquiring Cores with Rage Gauge Auto-Regen

Acquiring the "Rage Gauge Auto-Regen" Core is also recommended. The probability is low, but if you can equip two at the same time, the recovery amount becomes quite large, making it easier to use Deathblows repeatedly.

Cores that Heal on Counterattack are Powerful

Deadnote summons weak enemies called Fans who only use Bare Hands Normal Attacks. The "Health (per Counterattack)" Core, which allows you to restore Health while defeating Fans with a Counterattack, is powerful. It also helps save healing items on the way to the boss.

Also Take +Inventory Weight

The Deadnote fight is a long battle, so you'll want to bring as many healing items as possible. If you get a "+Inventory Weight" Core, consider taking it.

Secure as Many Healing Items as Possible

Bring as many Vitanons and Rage Shots as you can carry. L or DX versions are recommended for both due to their high recovery amount, but if you don't have them, it's a good idea to buy M versions at the Pro Shop Kazoku. You can also buy them at the Ant Bazaar, but they are expensive, so only do so when you have funds to spare.

Challenge Deadnote After Preparation

Once your preparations for Weapons, Armor, Cores, and items are complete, it's time to challenge Deadnote. It's a tough enemy with a wide variety of attacks and up to a third form, so challenge it multiple times to learn how to defeat it.

How to Beat Deadnote

Cooperate or Defeat Other Raiders If Present in Deadnote Fight

In the Deadnote fight, other Raiders may invade, or conversely, you may invade another player's battle. Cooperating makes defeating Deadnote easier, but only one person can escape after it's defeated. If you see a path to victory, you can also choose to defeat the other Raiders first.

What to Do When You're Stuck

At Least Bring Back Your Weapons

It is impossible to escape from the River of Souls unless you defeat Deadnote. If you're in a bad situation, such as not getting the Cores you want and being stuck with one Rage Gauge, or using up all your healing items before the boss, put your Legendary Rarity Weapons in the Safe Box and then die.

Restart Until You Get the Ideal Cores

When you don't get your ideal Core setup, such as "Rage Gauge +1" and "Health +200 (per Counterattack)," one option is to explore the River of Souls with disposable equipment and die. You'll have to start over from Body Rank 1, but the difficulty of the fight changes greatly depending on your Cores.

Unlock All Masteries

Deadnote is extremely tough, so make sure to unlock all your Masteries.

Stock Up Legendary Rarity Weapons

Legendary Rarity Weapons are essential for conquering the River of Souls. Stock multiple Legendary Rarity Wheel Blades, Katanas, and Bats in your Storage. Having a stock of Legendary Weapons makes it easier to re-challenge when you reach Body Rank 6.

Better to Have Weight -X%

Legendary Rarity equipment has high Weight. If it has a "Weight -X%" Perk, you can carry that many more healing items. Prioritize storing Weapons with a "Weight -X% " Perk.

Purchase Healing Items with Death Metal

Although you can only carry one of each, the Vitanon DX and Rage Shot DX purchased with Death Metal have 0 Weight and are not lost upon death. Be sure to get them to increase your chances of winning even slightly.
