SKER RITUAL - Deadly Lover's Fortress HARDCORE Easter Egg / Nightmare Difficulty / No Death (Solo)

Sker Ritual Deadly Lovers Fortress Hardcore Easter Egg Speedrun Walkthrough (Solo) / Hidden Story / Nightmare Difficulty / No Death / Text Guide in Description / No Commentary
This video shows a speedrun walkthrough of the Hardcore Easter Egg on the Deadly Lovers Fortress map in Sker Ritual on Nightmare difficulty with 0 deaths. To start the Hardcore Easter Egg, you must first complete the Casual Easter Egg (all missions must be completed within a single match). Also, I recommend leveling up a bit first and getting some Perk Upgrades (Main Menu → Customize → Perk Upgrades) before attempting Nightmare Runs.
Weapons I recommend using on this map: Howler or Sie Riggoti

Keys to her Heart Mission & Prepare for Boss Fight 24:30
Boss Fight (Casual Easter Egg) 26:26
Timeline (Hardcore Easter Egg / Hidden Objective Steps):
1. Hardcore EE Activation: After killing the Boss of the Casual Easter Egg, you must activate the Hardcore Easter Egg by interacting with the Pod holding a rotating weapon in the Boss Room, and then shoot the Stranger that spawns right next to it 27:53
2. Stranger Hunt: The Stranger will spawn in three different areas around the map, and you have to shoot him three times to complete the step. He will change his position every time you shoot him. When you are near the Stranger, he will make some loud noise so you know you're close to him. Possible locations where you can find him: Outer Court (to the left of the Puzzle Wall), Castle Grounds (above Resupply Machine), Castle Grounds (on Balcony above Pack & Punch Entrance), The Cloning Laboratory (Inside a Pod to the left of the Subject "A" Picture), Banqueting Hall (above the Life Token Machine), Banqueting Hall (On the second floor, to the right of the Resupply Machine, there is a small room. Go inside and look up) 28:00
3. Head down to the end of the Dungeon Hallway, where you fought Balor the Undying, and open the black box holding a demon lamb. Escort the demon lamb to the blue portal. Once it arrives, you will fight the Abraham and Isaac clone 29:59
4. Go to the spawn room and interact with the Bio-Pod. Then, you will need to use the Shattered Edge (Upgraded Sword) to hit 5 hanged corpses around the Outer Court area. 33:42
5. Return to the Bio-Pod and interact with it again. This will spawn the King of the Rats and Balor the Undying clone, which you must kill 34:51
6. Next, go to the Dungeon Hallway and grab the purple lantern which can be found right after leaving the Factory. You will need to use it to read the symbols on the walls in four different cells. Each cell will also have a Roman numeral next to the door 38:02
7. Head to the Dungeon Laboratory (at the end of the Dungeon Hallway) where you first fought Balor the Undying and put the symbols in the correct order. If done correctly, the door will open and you can grab the slab 38:51
8. Final Boss: Prepare for the final boss fight (I recommend using the Howler or Sie Rogotti Tier 2 or 3 and getting all five perks). When ready, head to the Boss Room, place the Slab in the Pod where you started the Hardcore Easter Egg, and kill the final boss. You can then choose to leave through the red portal or continue playing. Keep in mind that trophies/achievements will only be unlocked when you leave through the red portal 40:38
Ending Cutscene 42:27
Credits 44:31

I've created a text guide for the hardcore Easter egg steps in the video description! Also, here's a full playlist with all Collectibles & Hardcore Easter Eggs for all 4 maps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWqsm6eHr61jadU&ab_channel=wolker4

[@356waffles2]

thank you so much for this stuff ive used every one of your vids to complete the hidden easter eggs

[@jayesaenz2899]

Thank you so much for the guides!

[@clarkburton4156]

I would be lost without you. Thanks for the help

[@chsrmaander]

thank you so much you helped me beat every ee first try 👍🏾❤️

[@DonnyBaseball33]

Once again amazing guide man, the text guide is very helpful for those who are looking for commentary. Just finished all 4 hardcore EEs on hard, now gotta grind nightmare. Thanks @wolker4 🤙🏽

[@wolker4]

Glad you liked them 😊 good luck with your Nightmare runs man! 👊🏼

[@alfvedo1579]

Same dude just best sewers by far my hardest map to beat made me take like 2 weeks off the game lol now I’m on the the last one

[@DonnyBaseball33]

@alfvedo1579 i beat the the first and fourth map hidden on nightmare no problem, but the hotel and sewers are giving me trouble. Will get there eventually tho

[@antman4991]

Thank you for help with these videos. I haven’t finished all them yet. Do you have gameplay of the godkiller gun you get after everything is done?

[@wolker4]

No, I don't have gameplay of the God Killer. I accidentally bought it in my Cursed Lands of Lavernock video, but I didn't use it. 😅

[@kennywissinger1813]

would you be able to help me out with ee’s?

[@eldwarf034]

thank you so much again, one question, is the god killer available then on Lucky? or how does one actually use it?

[@wolker4]

Once you've completed all hardcore Easter eggs / hidden stories, you'll be able to buy the God Killer in the boss room of every map in your next runs after just beating the casual easter egg. You can't get the God Killer from Lucky.

[@TheNightShade]

I had no idea you could get the Howler from Lucky in this map. This is the only map I got left in my nightmare Easter egg runs, that gun will help tremendously.

[@maxibon7750]

I've been grinding the achievements on this game, but cant get the dungeon crawler achievement on this map (visit every location). Am I missing something ive done this map on hardcore both the main and secret easter egg. Also thanks for the help and guides they have been amazing

[@wolker4]

Yeah, those "Visit all Location..." trophies/achievements are semi-glitched. In the middle at the top of your screen, you can always see the name of the location. On each map, one location is sometimes bugged and doesn't display its name. If it doesn't show the name of the location during your run, you cant unlock the achievement. If every location displays a name, then you can get it in your run. I had the same issue on Deadly Lovers Fortress, where the first location (Starting area) was sometimes glitched and didn't show the name of the location (Outer Court). The achievement should normally pop when you do the easter egg. Hope this helps!

[@twistedpup8444]

is there a way to reactivate the hidden ee to do it on different difficulties?

[@wolker4]

Yeah, just do everything again but step where you have to place the slab will be a bit bugged as you already placed them before and you have to find the right angel. So just keep spaming the interaction button in different positions. First time I was redoing the EE on Deadly Lover’s it took me like 2-5min to find the right angel lol.

[@craynejacob8073]

Hey. What settings do you play on? My game doesn’t look so smooth as urs does

[@wolker4]

I'm playing on PS5 (Performance Mode, Uncapped Frame Rate: On, Motion Blur: Off, Film Grain: Off)

[@craynejacob8073]

@@wolker4 I play on ps5 as well, maybe we can play sometime? I also put theee settings on but, didn’t see a huge difference

[@wolker4]

@@craynejacob8073 I‘ll be busy with two other games for the next 1-2 weeks so I most likely won’t be playing Sker Ritual in that time. Sorry man ❤️

[@Mutat3dWesker]

is there more stranger spawns cant seem to find him a third time?

[@wolker4]

I've found the sixth location now and added it to the text guide. It's in the Banqueting Hall (On the second floor, to the right of the Resupply Machine, there is a small room. Go inside and look up)

[@factcheck1013]

Hey, how did you get that goat scene during the ending cutscene?

[@wolker4]

It's most likely the final ending cutscene for completing all four hardcore Easter eggs. To unlock this cutscene, you'll need to complete this map as last one.

[@factcheck1013]

Thanks for the reply, I have done that before and have done it on nightmare but still no goats lol! By any chance, did you have all the documents when you beat it that time?

[@wolker4]

@@factcheck1013 Yeah, I had a Lore Notes (Documents) when recording this run.

[@papi_zus9839]

how did u get that mask on ur character looks dope

[@wolker4]

You have to complete the hardcore easter egg (hidden story) on all 4 maps on Nightmare difficulty.

[@michaelc5722]

How do you know the order of the code at the end

[@wolker4]

Each cell has a Roman numeral next to the doors where the symbols are

@@wolker4 thank you bro

[@monarchgaming2028]

can you only get the howler if its nightmare difficulty?

No on any difficulty

yea u can from lucky

@@minilutingaming7940 Yeah, I meant you can get it on any difficulty. Not just Nightmare difficulty.

[@ittorasetsuxx8077]

Managed to get the howler my third try in the box and got to the boss room on round 11. Killed her before she could even put her shield up🤣🤣

[@sonicherores]

Do you need higher dif for the goat to spawn?

[@wolker4]

No, you can do the Easter eggs on any difficulty, so you don't need a higher difficulty for the goat. Or do you mean something else by "higher dif"?

[@sonicherores]

@@wolker4 Ah no I think the problem might be we killed the boss then started the easter egg the goat door was closed and not glowing purple.

[@wolker4]

@@sonicherores Did you do the stranger step where you have to shoot the stranger in 3 different locations?

[@sonicherores]

@@wolker4 Yes once at the main room near the weapon then 2 others

[@LexRogue]

You need to shoot him in 4 different spots not 3

[@swifthh7512]

were about to get my sword all i lost all my weapons and i had 'shards' as weapon and couldnt interact with anything even when i died lol

[@greatjakob9382]

How do you get the godkiller?

[@wolker4]

You have to complete the hardcore easter egg / hidden story on all 4 maps and then the next time you complete one of the casual ee's you'll be able to pick it up after the boss fight in the pod where you would normally start the hidden ee.

[@DonnyBaseball33]

Is the godkiller weapon any good? I’ve found too the sir rigotti and howler are the two best normal and wonder weapons by far, but I notice you don’t use the godkiller in any of your runs. I just unlocked it so guess I’ll find out for myself, just wanted your take @wolker4

[@wolker4]

@@DonnyBaseball33 To be honest I never really tested the Godkiller weapon. I think I’ve only used it once for 1-2 minutes to see how it shoots and how it looks like and then I moved on to my favorite weapons so I can’t say much about it 😅 And the reason I‘ve never used it in my videos is because I wanted to use weapons that everyone else has access to when following my walkthroughs / guides. I might give it a try in a few days when I have nothing else to play.

[@DonnyBaseball33]

@wolker4 i just tried it out and it is lowkey cheeks haha sticking to my sie rigotti and howler when i can pull it from Lucky. Thanks again man

[@Spartan--dr5zq]

@@DonnyBaseball33 i would disagree you still have PAP it to make sure you keep up the damage if anything it feels like a BFG

Dude my rounds end so early but probably cuz I'm on beginner
