Master Painkiller's Electrodriver and Demon Morph. Learn how to use shurikens, electrobursts, and the powerful Demon Morph transformation to defeat enemies.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Electrodriver: Found in Snowy Bridge.
  2. 2
    Primary (Shurikens): Good accuracy, but limited range and ammo capacity. Explodes on impact with Quad Damage. Effective against bones and maso commandos.
  3. 3
    Secondary (Electro): Best weapon against large groups of melee enemies. Can take out multiple minions at once without precise aiming, but requires close range. Useful against tough late-game enemies and at the start of The Palace.
  4. 4
    Special Attack (Electroburst): Launch an electrically charged shuriken that acts like a mine on impact. Uses 25 shuriken ammo. Immensely useful against all non-boss minions (except witches). Hold secondary fire, then press primary to launch. Takes time to recharge and is useless if it misses. Avoid sparking enemies to prevent damage.
  5. 5
    Demon Morph: Uses enemy souls as ammo. Collect 66 souls (or 50 with Dark Soul card) to transform into an indestructible juggernaut for ~30 seconds. All enemies (except minibosses) die in one hit with a ranged energy blast. Cannot take damage except from Lucifer.
  6. 6
    Demon Morph Visuals: World appears in black and white. Living monsters glow bright orange.
  7. 7
    Demon Morph Strategy: Collect souls while Morphed to help reach the next Morph. Plan Morphs for areas with many enemies to maximize effect. Avoid stray souls that push you over the limit unnecessarily.
  8. 8
    Demon Morph Bug: A bug can occur in Abandoned Factory where FOV remains extended after quickloading while Morphed. Reloading while not Morphed fixes this.
  9. 9
    Pickups - Gold: Used for manipulating tarot cards between levels. More gold makes card manipulation easier. Vanishes over time.
  10. 10
    Gold Importance: Crucial in level 1/4 Cathedral, where collecting 500 gold unlocks a tarot card.
  11. 11
    Gold Collection: Smash breakable objects and run over scattered coins. Coins represent 1-3 gold each.
  12. 12
    Special Gold: Can be obtained by hitting dead bodies rapidly with the Painkiller's secondary fire. Up to 4 pieces of special gold can appear per body.
Tips
  • The Chaingun is generally recommended over the Electrodriver's primary fire.
  • Use the Electrodriver's secondary fire when surrounded by melee enemies.
  • The Electroburst is a powerful crowd-control tool, but requires careful aiming and timing.
  • Maximize the effect of Demon Morph by activating it when entering areas with large enemy groups.
  • Be mindful of the Demon Morph's duration and plan accordingly.
  • The secondary fire of the Painkiller weapon can yield special gold from corpses.
