For the weapon roles described in this guide to Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, switch to the Void Sword to restore health, use the Chaos Claws against shielded or armored enemies, and fall back to the Shadow Whip when weapon energy runs low.

Choose a weapon for the situation

  • Void Sword: The draft says hits with this weapon restore health. Use it when recovering health is the immediate need.
  • Chaos Claws: The draft assigns these to breaking enemy defenses. Switch to them against shielded or armored foes.
  • Shadow Whip: The draft describes it as a mid-range weapon and recommends basic whip attacks when Void or Chaos energy is depleted.

These are the weapon roles presented in the supplied draft; no testing or independent verification is available.

When energy runs out

If you have depleted your Void or Chaos energy, use defensive maneuvers and basic Shadow Whip attacks while rebuilding your Focus meter, as the draft recommends. Avoid committing to energy-consuming attacks until you have the resources for them.
