Rubinite quick tips
Rubinite tips verified July 25, 2026.
Tip 2💡
You keep every point of Blood Dust on death, and dropping a boss to roughly half health pays out a bonus Blood Dust chunk.
Tip 3💡
Stack up to three Marks before you release Focus so your Critical Thrust hits at full strength.
Tip 4💡
Standing closer to a boss fills the Focus gauge faster than fighting from range.
Tip 5💡
Talk to Wichiwi at the Cathedral between attempts — Talismans can carry a debuff alongside their buff, so read both lines before equipping.
