The Infernal Rogue is a special type of sword in the game Phantom Blade Zero which is owned by the Gold Mask. Apart from the intimidating design, it also features a special attribute where your HP will be automatically replenished whenever it drops below 50%. Nevertheless, you cannot acquire this sword by simply defeating the Gold Mask. You’ll need to complete all the Bloodline Awakening quests and visit Mist in Pangjen to unlock it.
How to Unlock Infernal Rouge
One of the most intriguing swords that you can acquire in Phantom Blade Zero is known as Infernal Rouge. It is the sword of the Gold Mask, but besides having an eye-catching design, it possesses many other benefits. For example, you will be provided with the Bloodline Rebirth ability, which may be very helpful in certain fights. Specifically, when your HP becomes lower than 50%, Bloodline Rebirth will automatically heal you.
Thus, it may be quite useful in fights against some hard bosses such as Lee Dang – the One-Armed Tiger, who can easily drain your health in a couple of seconds. But remember that this effect works only once per fight and is reset both on your death and when you ring a bell. There are two prerequisites for unlocking this blade. First, you should complete all the Bloodline Awakening quests, and then visit Mist in Pangjen and temper your sword.
Defeat the Gold Mask Five Times
The first thing you have to do is finish all the Bloodline Awakening quests. It is necessary to defeat the Gold Mask five times within the game. The fifth battle will be your last and not an easy one. Indeed, the Gold Mask has a number of deadly attacks that can take your character out of the game forever if you do not manage to avoid them. If you struggle with parrying his moves, try to learn their rhythm and dodge them.
After the fifth defeat of the Gold Mask, you will have finished the quests and got the needed item. Still, it does not mean that you are ready for the next step because there is one more thing that you have to do.
Find Mist in Pangjen
Now that you have defeated the Gold Mask and obtained your reward, go back to Pangjen and search for Mist. Upon finding Mist, talk to her and select the Sanguine Sword option. You will see that there is a mask that you obtained from the Gold Mask in the list of items. Pick the mask and temper the sword in order to get the Infernal Rouge.
