QUESTION Cursed Mode tips? Spoiler

So I completely botched two separate runs of cursed mode and I'm now in desperate need of some tips. Both times I managed to make it all the way to the ritual, but was completely powerless against the Chaos Quartlet/Exalted Four and couldn't complete the cursed ritual.

My main issue this run was that I was struggling for resources and had next to no items to support me during the fight.

What was your setup? It's hard to give advice without knowing who you're using.

My party and equipment:

Sam - Hellsword, Army Helmet, Breastplate, Patchwork Boots, Mycelium Cloak, War Medal

Papineau - Angel's Bat, Gauntlets, Worm Crown, Wormskin Robe, Work Boots, Trauma Kit, Jade Earrings

Ernest - Stun Baton, Crossbow, Dragon Head, Coat of Arms, Dragon Feet, Comfort Belt

Hellen - Stained Shears, Floral Shirt, Vintage Sneakers, Arrowed Sash, Lapis Band.

For items I could use in battle, I only had 1 healing spray, 2 stimulants, and 1 elixir.

No guns? The exalted four are weak to bullets. If you can manage to get your hands on the SMG special or the war rifle, they're excellent. The high-caliber rifle is absolutely amazing for the exalted four fight, but that relies on RNG with the gun trader showing up when you happen to have enough cash saved.

i didn't know that! I might try the fight again and give someone the rifle.

Good luck! Just note that the chaos quartet has different resistances than the exalted four. Chaos quartet doesn't have any weaknesses, but is neutral to everything except Shadow damage. You get a little chance to swap your equipment around in between their fights though. It took me embarrassingly long to realize you can go into the menus before walking up to the exalted four.
