[0:00] There are six special trinkets in Mina
[0:02] the Hollower, the different beastiums.
[0:04] And if you wield all six at once, you
[0:06] might just have something special
[0:08] happen. Want to know how to do it for
[0:10] yourself? Here's a guide for how to
[0:11] activate Mina's beast mode with all six
[0:14] Beastium trinkets.
[0:17] First things first, though, this is
[0:19] typically something you'll only be able
[0:20] to get after getting pretty far into the
[0:22] game. So, this is your courtesy spoiler
[0:25] warning.
[0:27] The warning BCM can be found in Oex, the
[0:30] courtyard of Radiant Manor. Head to the
[0:32] right and there's a large gap to cross.
[0:34] There are a few ways to go about this,
[0:36] but your best bet is to use the iron ste
[0:39] sidearm and carry the wisp trinket. The
[0:42] iron ste can be picked up inex just next
[0:45] to the blacksmith.
[0:51] Carry the wisp can be purchased from
[0:53] puppet's hidden shop in the southern
[0:54] outskirts.
[1:01] Line up the Iron Steed with the gap.
[1:03] Leap at the edge, then tap and hold jump
[1:05] to float with Carry the Wisp. And the
[1:08] warning beastium is just on the other
[1:09] side.
[1:14] The starving beastium can be found in
[1:16] Night's Rest, a section of Mner's Mile.
[1:19] There's a door here requiring three
[1:21] sparks to open. We'll include a link to
[1:23] our spark locations guide in the
[1:24] description below. Once you have three
[1:27] sparks, open the door to Mina's grave
[1:29] and lay inside. You're taken to a warped
[1:32] version of the surrounding area that's
[1:34] filled with danger. Carefully make your
[1:36] way around. We'd recommend having the
[1:38] protospark trinket equipped in case you
[1:40] get hit.
[1:42] Follow the path back to the same crypt
[1:44] where you started and your reward is the
[1:46] starving beastium.
[1:53] The volatile beastium can be purchased
[1:55] while riding the train, but only during
[1:58] a very specific route. Board the train
[2:00] from Bone Beach and ride to Knox's
[2:03] Bayou. This means you'll not only have
[2:05] to unlock the train, which is an
[2:07] expensive requirement to reach Cold
[2:09] Train Peak, but also have access to the
[2:11] train stations in both Bone Beach and
[2:13] Nox's Bayou. The beastium can be
[2:15] purchased from Vitus on the platform
[2:18] between sections of the train. The
[2:19] volatile beastium will be yours for 750
[2:23] bones.
[2:28] The draining beastium can be purchased
[2:30] in the Kindlewood. When you first enter
[2:32] the region, you'll have to battle
[2:33] against the mad house. Winning the
[2:36] battle opens up a shop inside, and the
[2:38] draining beastium can be purchased for
[2:40] 2,000 bones.
[2:48] The Burning Beastium can be found in
[2:50] Cold Train Peak. Early in the dungeon, a
[2:53] couple of screens past the first
[2:55] underlab, you'll find a hole you can
[2:57] burrow under to the east.
[3:00] Within it is a platforming challenge
[3:02] with ice and spikes. We recommend
[3:04] equipping the steady souls trinket to
[3:06] make this section easier, as it negates
[3:08] the ice physics. Carry the wisp may also
[3:11] be helpful.
[3:13] as well as the spike spurs to reduce
[3:14] spike damage.
[3:17] At the end of the platforming challenge
[3:19] is the burning beastium.
[3:23] The reckless beastium is found in the
[3:25] astral ory mirror's end. Regardless of
[3:28] which mirror you enter to reach the
[3:30] central hub, head to the east and you'll
[3:32] find Dr. Knot, an NPC who is apparently
[3:35] missing his brain. There are a few
[3:37] brains lying around for some reason, but
[3:40] his brain is hidden away. Break the wall
[3:43] just north, and at the end of the
[3:45] section is the real brain you're looking
[3:46] for. The gap is a bit wide, so you'll
[3:49] need something extra to get you over
[3:50] there, such as carry the wisp so you can
[3:52] float across, but anything that can
[3:55] expand your movement options should work
[3:56] here. Bring it back to Dr. KN and throw
[3:59] the brain at him to slot it back into
[4:01] his head. Your reward will be the
[4:03] reckless beastium and a hint about using
[4:06] all of them together. H
[4:09] Once you have all six Beastium trinkets,
[4:11] there's actually one more step,
[4:13] equipping all six at once. That means
[4:16] you need six trinket slots. Here's a
[4:18] quick rundown of where to find all five
[4:20] upgrades. Three of them can be purchased
[4:22] from the Emporium in Oex, with each one
[4:25] more expensive than the previous. One is
[4:28] obtained in the Eastern Heath just
[4:30] outside of AX. After clearing your first
[4:32] dungeon and spark generator, Maxi will
[4:34] be waiting for Mina here. Defeat Maxi
[4:37] and your reward is a trinket bag. The
[4:40] last trinket bag is found in Astroi
[4:42] Mirror's End to the west. You'll have to
[4:44] have unlocked the mirror in at least
[4:46] September to get here, and you'll need
[4:48] to spend a year to access the upgrade.
[4:50] Once you have all of these, you'll be
[4:52] able to equip six trinkets at once. Once
[4:55] you head to an underlab and equip all
[4:57] six beastium trinkets at the same time,
[4:59] they'll flash. Drink a vial and Mina
[5:02] will activate beast mode. Here, your
[5:04] weapon and sidearm are replaced by a
[5:06] melee attack. If you attack three times,
[5:09] your third attack will change depending
[5:10] on how long you wait to use it,
[5:12] indicated by the weapon icon in the
[5:14] lower left. If you attack immediately,
[5:16] Mina will unleash a small wave ahead of
[5:18] her to deal a lot of damage. If you wait
[5:20] for a short moment, you'll see the icon
[5:22] change to a small tornado. Finish your
[5:25] attack combo during this time to instead
[5:27] perform a powerful AoE spin. Your
[5:30] sidearm is a fireball, and if you
[5:32] activate it in midair, it's a dash
[5:33] attack. There are two things to note
[5:35] about beast mode. One is that you cannot
[5:38] use vials to heal, as they'll simply
[5:40] return Mina back to normal. And the
[5:42] second is that all of the individual
[5:44] beastium trinket effects do not apply
[5:46] when used together in beast mode.
[5:50] And that's how you find all six beastium
[5:53] trinkets to activate beast mode. This
[5:55] form is very powerful. Will you be using
[5:58] it in your playthrough? Make sure to let
[6:00] us know down in the comments. And for
