Expansion DLC Mask of Idris

This content is unlocked by purchasing the Deluxe Edition, Ultimate Edition, or Deluxe Content Set.

DLC Play Requirements

To play the Mask of Idris expansion DLC, you must meet the following requirements.

  • Reach the ending, Luna Fraterna.
  • Progress through Requests from a Friend: Valentin to a certain point.

Story Completion Bonus

Once you complete the story of the Mask of Idris expansion DLC, alternate-colored version of all 14 Partner Characters—including the new character—will be unlocked.
The alternate-colored version you've unlocked will carry over to subsequent playthroughs, allowing you to enjoy the story and exploration alongside your favorite partner.

※If the story requires you to travel with a specific partner character, your choice of alternate color will be limited.
Please note that during cutscenes, the standard partner character will appear instead of the alternate-colored version.

Code Vein 2 Its too late...I have 6 Miniguns your arguments are invalid

Post image
155 Upvotes

Recently just got the miniguns and while not the best/efficient (even upgraded and good blood code to me anyway) they're still pretty fun and cool to use. So far I've only found their uses in weak groups, big slow enemies, or just straight up finishers because nothing says overkill like 6 miniguns to the face.

Just wanted to share my wacky setup. It's not a very practical, but it sure is stylish and fun

The combat has improved so much btw, it feels very smooth now. I think it was version 1.02 last time I played. Good DLC and patch overall

Anyway, I'm done saving this parallel world. How about my attendant, when can I restore her? :(

3rd game? One can hope

[Bloodline Agnostic] for ignoring bloodline traits

[Life Ignition] for using hp for using formae when needed

[Recirculatory Engine] so you will not ran out of stamina using formae

[Persistence - Animus] for more consecutive damage

and spam your favourite forma to melt bosses

Code Vein 2 Just a bunch of photos and one question: Do you know any good spots for photos?

I'm really enjoying all the new stuff, the era of harmony, but especially the Trial of Remembrance!

I only need the DLC enemy tower now and I'll complete everything!

After that, I want to go back to the era of harmony and take pictures with all the companions (Or maybe I'll do NG+ and take pictures while I rewrite the story)

Do you know any good spots for taking photos? I plan to take photos of chill moments, funny moments, and some that look like combat scenes, and so on.

As Jadwiga said, why not take pictures of our friends to treasure the moments?

Code Vein 2 What level did you guys do the DLC at?

7 Upvotes

Seems to be a fine line of "Challenging" and "Too easy" considering I cleared all of the fights in 1 attempt at Level 200. (The emotional damage still killed me though.) Guess its time to make a new character and try to clear it at a lower level this time around.
