Talk to Uriel | The Rod of Arafel Darksiders 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Conversation with Uriel should initiate automatically right after the battle finishes (if this does not happen, approach her). Listen to the entire conversation and do not forget to exhaust all of the dialogue options. This will unlock a new side quest [Light of the Fallen] that you will be able to perform at the same time as the discussed main quest. From Uriel you will receive a new firearm called Salvation.

[TIP: According to the instruction that the game gives you, Salvation has three modes of firing. The left mouse button allows constant fire an I recommend using it as often as necessary. Right mouse button is responsible for a single shot, and it comes in handy while trying to weaken strong enemies. By pressing the middle mouse button you shoot into the ground, which is the best solution when you are surrounded by a swarm. Salvation has unlimited ammo, but it overheats, at which point you need to wait a while for it to cool down. If you want to put away or dispose of the weapon, you need to pres the "E" key. It is useful when you want to open a chest, or reach a distant ledge. This is especially important because you cannot jump with the weapon equipped.]

[TIP: Using firearms in not required for the completion of this quest, but you should not resign of the chance to use it. Thanks to it, you will be able to attack monsters from the distance more effectively and you will not have to risk losing health points while fighting at close quarters. The downside of any guns is that they do not have any additional feature that you got used to with bladed weapons (dealing damage concerned with elements, regeneration of health or wrath after you kill an enemy etc..).]
