Cursed Dual Katana (Puzzle)

ArticlePuzzleCombos

This article is a guide that explains how to solve the puzzle needed to obtain the Cursed Dual Katana.

If the player wants a look inside the building of the puzzle, using Flash Step inside of the building is possible. This will not allow access to start the puzzle, yet will still allow to interact with the scrolls. If the player has both Yama and Tushita, they can unlock the building for the puzzle, but still need the required level and mastery to read the scrolls.

Puzzle

To begin the puzzle, the player needs to be Lv. 2200 or higher and have 350 or higher mastery on both Tushita and Yama. If the player does not meet these requirements, it will trigger the dialogue: "The inscription is too hard to read..."

Step 1

To begin, the player must talk to the Crypt Master, located next to the big stone building on the hill behind the Mansion. The Crypt Master will ask the player if they want to enter. If the player agrees, the door to the puzzle will open, which is just around the corner of the house. Once inside, two scrolls can be found. Each of the scrolls has three trials which the player will have to complete, with each giving a small hint towards what the puzzle is. The player must be using the same sword corresponding with the scroll name.

Step 2

The information on each trial can be found below. The player cannot do more than one trial at a time, similar to quests. Each trial gives the player 1 Alucard Fragment .

• Yama Scroll Trials
• Tushita Scroll Trials

Pain and Suffering

To complete this, the player has to take 8-10k damage from an enemy/player while holding the Yama sword. It may not work the first time, so the player should keep trying.

Haze of Misery

The player's vision will be foggy similar to when rip_indra True Form spawns. After that, a purple marking will appear on some groups of NPCs. The player has to kill every NPC that is marked.

• There can be multiple NPCs on an island that can be marked and some islands have NPCs that are not marked.
• Portal is recommended for this trial, as it provides good mobility.
• Keep in mind that Ghosts might also have to be killed, so remember to check the Secret Temple.
• Asking a friend to help show the way to islands is also recommended.
• The player needs to make sure they have cleared each island's enemies before moving on to the next island, just because one group of NPCs are not marked does not mean the island's other NPCs are not marked as well.
• Progress will not be saved upon disconnection.
• The Markings are visible through walls
• The purple markings look like this.

Fear the Reaper

The Soul Reaper must be summoned using a Hallow Essence, then the player must let the Soul Reaper kill them. With this, the player will be teleported to the Hell Dimension.

Hell Dimension

The player will be tasked with lighting up three torches, and must defeat all the NPCs that spawn. The Hell's Messenger, a boss using awakened Dark will spawn as well. Once finished, a gate will open, and the player will be teleported back to the room with the scrolls upon entering it. After completing it, a dialogue saying: "The scroll has reacted to your achievements" will appear, and the scroll will burn up when the player interacts with it again.

• NOTE: If multiple players are present, the first to die to the Soul Reaper will be teleported.

Docks Legend

Talk to 3 different Boat Dealers or Luxury Boat Dealers in three different islands and select 'Pardon me' when on the last page of boats.

Sense of Duty

Kill an enemy NPC from a Pirate Raid at the Castle on the Sea. The player will not receive the Alucard Fragment until the pirate raid has finished.

Soulless

Go to the Cake Queen, and deal a single hit. A song will start playing in the background for two minutes, and the player must defeat the Cake Queen before the song ends, so that they get teleported to the Heaven Dimension.

Heaven Dimension

The player will be tasked with lighting up the torches and defeating all the NPCs that spawn around the torch they light up. The Heaven's Guardian, a boss using awakened Light, will spawn as well. Once finished, the door will be opened, and the player will be teleported back to the room with the scrolls upon entering it. A dialogue saying: "The scroll has reacted to your achievements" will appear, and the scroll will burn up when interacting with it again.

Step 3

Once both scrolls are burned, interact with the pedestal. A message will appear saying: "The 6 shards of the mythical Alucard Gem react, forming the gem anew." The door will close, a red gem will rise into a hole, and a wall will open to reveal the Lv. 2025 Cursed Skeleton Boss. It can only be damaged with Yama or Tushita, and upon defeat, after a short delay, it guarantees a 100% drop rate for the Cursed Dual Katana, and several Cursed Skeletons will spawn.

Notes

• A bug may cause the screen to go black after killing the boss, rejoining fixes it and the player will keep the sword.
• If the player tries to damage the boss using another weapon or fruit even with Aura on, the Elemental immunity message will appear. If that happens, simply use or change their sword to Tushita or Yama to damage the boss.
• Defeating the Cursed Skeleton Boss is not required for the sword, You can easily respawn/reset in the roblox menu, You will respawn with the Cursed Dual Katana.

Scroll Tips

• Yama Scroll Tips
• Tushita Scroll Tips

Pain and Suffering

Make sure to have Yama in hand. Hold Yama and let any enemy hit the player until they are low and the Alucard Fragment is obtained.

Haze of Misery

It is highly recommended to have Advanced Instinct to spot NPCs in the fog, and fast traveling methods like Portal's [C] World Warp ability, both Light's [F] Light Flight and [F] Shining Flight abilities or speed-boosting accessories. The Submarine can also be used to travel to islands. Portal is best for navigating between islands, though Buddha can help if you remember the island locations. You can also use other players' marks to travel faster. Some islands, like the Floating Turtle, may need multiple visits due to different quest groups. Not every island will have a mark, and you can complete the trial without visiting them all.

Fear the Reaper Tips

To farm the Hallow Essence faster, kill Posessed Mummys for bones, pray often at the Gravestone, team up with other players, and avoid frequently using knockback abilities like Yama's [Z] Hellish Slash ability. Joining servers with exploiters can also help, as they often farm Bones for the Death King, making the Soul Reaper spawn more frequently.

Docks Legend

Use a speed boosting accessory such as the Pilot Helmet or Hunter Cape and the Portals to interact with boat sellers more quickly. The player can use the Portals to reach the docks of Floating Turtle, Hydra Island and the Castle on the Sea, the player will also complete this trial. (Make sure to not just buy the boat but select the new option and talk to the NPC) You Can Also Use The Submarine At Submerged Island To Get Around.

Sense of Duty

Try to be in a calmer server and use a build geared towards combat to more easily get a kill. The player only needs to kill one pirate in a pirate raid in order to get credit. Try using a high damage, quick ability such as Godhuman's [C] Sixth Realm Gun ability to quickly take a kill.

Soulless

Unless the player has an extremely highly damaging build, it is recommended to get help from other players in order to kill the Cake Queen quickly enough under two minutes. The player can ask other players to bring the Cake Queen to low health and deal the last blow themselves. Try to conserve health while fighting Cake Queen, as they will need to battle more enemies in the Heaven Dimension, although waiting to light the torches will give time to heal and recover.

General Tips/FAQ

• The individual tasks on the scrolls do save between servers once they are completed. However, progress within the tasks does not save. For example, if the player only kills half of the enemies required for Haze of Misery and then leave the game, they will lose that progress when they come back.
  • This is the same for the Fear the Reaper trial, if you don't accept the quest, dying to the Soul Reaper won't work.
• Some of the tasks are very time-consuming, so make sure you will be able to complete one if you choose to do so.
• It is often a good idea to do the puzzles in a Private Server, as many of the tasks can be made much more difficult if other players decide to attack you while in the middle of one of these tasks.
• The Cursed Skeletons will only spawn in servers where a person has gotten the Cursed Dual Katana in and will not spawn otherwise.

Trivia

• Haze of Misery is widely considered the most complicated quest by the community due to the foggy vision, similar to the one in the Mirage Island or when rip_indra True Form is summoned.
• There is a glitch where enemies in both the Heavenly Dimension and Hell Dimension can fall out of the area, making the quest nearly impossible to complete. To avoid this, players should refrain from using knockback abilities or forcing enemies through walls.
