Permadeath and Penitence Mode Tips
This guide will show you tips for Permadeath and Penitence Mode.
Permadeath Tips
- In Permadeath, important to note, if you die, your save file will be erased. Both Permadeath and Penitence Mode can be activated at the same time.
Your save file can be accessed in C:/Users/Username/AppData/LocalLow/Massive Monster/Cult Of The Lamb/saves
Replace Username with the name you have instead. Unaware if this is tracked across the entire PC somehow.
- Permadeath can be unlocked from finishing the game. (Slight spoilers, if you require help to unlock) The choice after beating the four Bishops has to be ‘Refuse’.
- For the purposes of Vampiric weapons, killing Chemach’s “followers” counts towards this chance of getting health back.
Penitence Tips
- Dying of Hunger or lack of Sleep will erase your save file. Both Penitence Mode and Permadeath can be activated at the same time.
- Your save file can be accessed in C:/Users/Username/AppData/LocalLow/Massive Monster/Cult Of The Lamb/saves
- Replace Username with the name you have instead. Unaware if this is tracked across the entire PC somehow.
- To unlock Penitence Mode, you have to catch enough spiders in your Cult HQ (They appear mostly at night) so that one of them gives you a skull. Place this skull on a Body Pit and you will unlock Penitence Mode, a Spider Follower with a trait that they won’t die on starvation and live longer, and also unlock that form for future Followers.
- Sleeping in your Leader Tent will skip to the next day and refill the Sleep meter. This can be done seconds before sunrise and still get the same effect.
- Followers will go towards the first meal available, so for them not to eat your meals, or buy more time before someone does, cook yours last.
- The Lamb will puke the following food:
Grassy Gruel (Even with the Grass Eater Doctrine)
