How to respec in Lies of P

How do you respec in Lies of P? This Soulslike, as you'd expect from the genre, is hard as nails. Early on in the game, you may be unsure of the build you want to go for as you learn the mechanics and how things work, which means being able to respec your stats is a very welcome addition. However, it doesn't turn up for quite a while.

There are plenty of Lies of P bosses you may get stuck against, including the monstrosity that is Fallen Archbishop Andreus, but you're out of luck if you want to change your build until much further into the game. You'll need to go away and farm Lies of P Star Fragments and Ergo if you want to level up to beat the boss, rather than changing your existing build. There are some minor spoilers in this guide for one of the Lies of P bosses and a mechanic you unlock later down the line, so proceed with caution.

Lies of P Rare Ergo - should you save or use it?

Should you save or use Rare Ergo in Lies of P? When you first start acquiring Rare Ergo, you'll notice in the description it says "a treasure hunter may want this Rare Ergo", but it may also be tempting to use it immediately and earn the +5,000 Ergo to level up a few times.

All of the main Lies of P bosses drop a Rare Ergo, and as explained in our review, there's plenty of them so you'll start stacking them up quite quickly which may lead you to think it's worth consuming them for the Ergo buff. It's not necessarily the worst call you can make in your Lies of P playthrough, but you should ensure you know exactly what Rare Ergo can also be used for... let us explain.

How to farm Lies of P Star Fragments

How do you get more Lies of P Star Fragments? At the start of the game, you'll start acquiring Star Fragments left, right, and centre, but their purpose won't be explained for a good while. This is because they're used in boss fights, but the first two you encounter don't let you use them. From the Scrapped Watchman fight onwards, you can use a Star Fragment at a Crack's Calling, which is a glowing blue bowl next to the boss entry. This will summon a specter that will help you in battle.

There are a lot of Lies of P bosses to take on throughout Krat, and if you hit a wall with a tough one like I did with Fallen Archbishop Andreus, you'll need to farm some Star Fragments. So with the best Lies of P weapons in tow, here is where you can get loads of Star Fragments in Lies of P in no time at all.
