- 3'Pitch Black Darkness' also spawns two new enemies: the SPIRIT ORB and the FLAME ORB.
- 4Both orbs are weak and can be defeated in 1-2 hits.
- 5Defeating the SPIRIT ORB restores 100 TP to the killer.
- 6Defeating the FLAME ORB causes it to explode, dealing 15-20 damage to everyone. Plan who kills the Spirit Orb to restore TP and be ready to heal from the Flame Orb's explosion.
