Darksiders 3 Leveling and Souls Guide will help you with leveling up in the game, earning Attribute Points, and more. In order to level up in Darksiders 3, players are required to have Souls and Attribute Points.
Darksiders 3 Leveling and Souls
Your role is that of a Horseman in Darksiders 3. However, there is still the option of leveling up your character that can be done by finding souls and adding to your soul count.
By doing that, you will be able to make Fury’s attributes much stronger. We will be looking at how the Leveling System works in the game and how you can efficiently increase it.
How to Farm Souls
Souls are the main currency that you will be dealing in as you play DS3. They can also be used to level up. You collect souls when you slowly defeat enemies.
The souls are automatically added to your count and they are visible if you look in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Another way to gain souls is by breaking objects and shattering Lurcher Crystals.
Lurcher Crystals are essentially bundles of souls that you can get when you shatter them in your inventory. In order to break Lurcher Crystals, you need to head to your inventory and go to the “Crystals” section.
Simply press and hold the “Shatter All” button in order to break them all. Try to break them before you visit Vulgrim, as you do not want to lose all of your crystals from dying.
Moreover, there are different types of Lurcher Crystals, each differentiated by the number of souls they contain. Here is a list of all types of Lurcher Crystals and the amount of souls they contain.
- Small Lurcher Clump: 25 Souls
- Medium Lurcher Clump: 75 Souls
- Large Lurcher Clump: 150 Souls
- Small Lurcher Cluster: 400 Souls
- Medium Lurcher Cluster: 800 Souls
- Large Lurcher Cluster: 1,200 Souls
- Small Luster Cache: 2,000 Souls
- Medium Lurcher Cache: 5,000 Souls
- Large Lurcher Cache: 10,000 Souls
- Grand Lurcher Crystal: 1,000 Souls

Spend Attribute Points
In order to use your Attribute Points, you can choose from a total of traits Health, Strength, and Arcane. All of them have their own innate levels which can be viewed if you head to inventory.
Open the menu and go to one of your attributes to see its stats.
Simply select the attribute that you want to level up and hold the button in order to apply the Attribute Point over to it. Also, if you spend an attribute point, it can’t be reverted.
In the early stages of Darksiders 3, spend Attribute Points Health and Strength. As you play the game and you are skilled enough to dodge enemy attacks, shift your focus towards Arcane and Strength.
Health
Spending Attributes Points on Health increases the amount of health Fury has. In the beginning, the health you gain with each point is 20. As you progress this increase drops to 16 per Attribute Point spent.
The following table will help you with the amount of health increased with each level or Attribute Point spent.
