Background[]
Lost spirits are malignant ghosts that are revived from death to haunt the living. They are usually almost invisible until they get close to you. They are incorporeal, so you have to use silver, energy or magical weapons against them (they receive highly reduced damage from other weapons, and on Expert difficulty or higher they can't be damaged by other weapons at all). Losts can only attack you when they're up close, but you'll need a spirit shield to protect yourself from them as regular body armour won't save you. Also, if your player character has weak paranormal level, their attacks will mess with your mind (your screen will be distorted and the textures will flash for a moment). Using MIA Gun on them unlocks Mind Shield 3 research project.
Trivia[]
- The presence of the Lost spirits often can be detected with your PDU scanner. It will show that a location has a malignant paranormal activity.
- You can partially protect yourself from the Losts and other supernatural threats by equipping Minerva's Amulet artifact in the loadout menu.
- You can also make encounters with them easier by equipping Spirit Shawl artifact, as it will grant you the ability to easily see them and reduce the damage they deal to you.
- Using Sang's Spellbook on them will not only eliminate them but also will give you partially charged Mirror Orb.
