Manual - Infinity Blade

TIPS FROM THE DEVELOPERS
Members of the ChAIR team share some of their secrets for mastering Infinity Blade:
• LEARN HOW TO USE COMBOS! You can also mix any of these up by starting with
Right/Down/Up and changing the relative direction in the pattern and learn how
to do a 5-hit combo!
• Left, Right, Left = Huge Hit (Does the most damage you can in a 3 hit window)
• Left, Left, Right, Right = Mega Hit (Does the most damage you can in a 4 hit
window)
• Left, Right, Up, Down, Left = Ultra Hit (Best, this does the most damage you can
in a 5 or greater hit window)
• USE YOUR SHIELD WISELY. Block with shield, slide off of shield to swipe - no
need to lift your finger. Save your shield for end of fight when health is low since it
is the easiest - be aware - some boss attacks get past shield, know them and dodge
• PAY ATTENTION TO THE XP OF YOUR WEAPONS AND ITEMS. If they are mastered
switch them out before the next battle.
• WHEN FIGHTING THE 15 FOOT TITANS (LIKE THE FERAL TROLL), PAY AT-
TENTION TO WHICH SIDE HE SMASHES HIS WEAPON TO THE GROUND. If he
smashes on the right side, dodge to the right shortly afterward. If he smashes on
the left side do the same on the left. It’s a good indicator of which way to dodge.
• PAY ATTENTION TO THE TITAN’S INFO. For example, if he is immune to fire, be
sure to equip an Ice Sword, Ice Ring and a Fire Shield. This way you can do maximum
damage to the boss and also block his attacks.
• REMEMBER TO LOOK FOR LOOT BETWEEN FIGHTS. Health vials are precious
and you can find tons of gold just lying around in the world.
• USE MAGIC TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. Find rings that allow a good balance of
offensive and defensive spells - a well timed “Heal” spell can be the difference between
destroying the God King or leaving your kid to mop up your mess...
• ONCE A WEAPON IS MASTERED IT NO LONGER GIVES YOU XP. So switch up
your inventory from time to time to get your character to the highest levels. Mastered
items double in value - sell them in the store if you need more gold.
• THE HIGHER YOUR SHIELD STAT, THE LESS DAMAGE YOU WILL TAKE FROM
HIGHER-LEVEL ENEMIES.
• EVERY POINT AFTER 10 IN MAGIC DOES AN ADDITIONAL PERCENT OF DAM-
AGE.
• TRY USING BLOCK AND DODGE TO DEFEND THE FIRST FEW ATTACKS OF AN
ENEMY COMBO, TO GET IN MORE SCRATCH HITS BETWEEN ENEMY MOVES.
After the third or fourth enemy attack, try parrying to score the larger damage
window at the end of the combo, especially if you get a stab or sword clash opportunity.
• USE THE FAST FORWARD BUTTON TO QUICKLY GET TO NEXT FIGHT (but, you
may miss money/health pickups - so avoid if you need them)
• IN BETWEEN FIGHTS, TRY TO EQUIP YOUR ITEMS WITH ‘GOLD+’ ATTRIBUTES
TO GET MORE GOLD FROM ANY MONEY BAGS YOU FIND.
• MASTERING THE ART OF PARRYING IS THE KEY TO BECOMING AN UNSTOP-
PABLE SWORD FIGHTER - LEARN TO PARRY AND YOU WILL DOMINATE THE
GOD KING!
