Weapon Mastery | Tips Castlevania: LoS 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Weapon Mastery shows the extent of your mastery over a certain weapon and it has a direct impact on how much damage that weapon will do. To increase the mastery of a given weapon, you need to:

• Buy a skill for that weapon.
• Master that skill - with each successful hit to the enemy, the mastery over the skill will rise by a certain amount (harder to land, more damaging or those which require a bigger amount of Magic will rise by a bigger amount). When it reaches 100%, you will have the skill mastered.
• When the skill is mastered, you can "transfer the skill" to the weapon, increasing the mastery level of the weapon by a small amount.

When you transfer a sufficient "amount of skills" to the weapon mastery, it will advance on a higher level (every weapon starts at level 1), which will increase the overall effectiveness (damage) of the weapon. The game forces you to use different attacks all the time to be effective - without increasing the mastery of a weapon, you will soon do almost no damage to the tougher foes you will come across.

There are a few things that you must remember:

• Mastery of a skill can't go beyond 100%.
• You cannot increase the mastery level of one weapon by transferring a skill from another - a skill from Shadow Whip can only increase the mastery level of Shadow Whip.
• Try to attack using a number of skills, to master as many of them as possible - the higher weapon mastery you will achieve, the more damage the weapon will do.
