Mea Culpa Hearts in Blasphemous are categorized as weapon modifications. Mea Culpa Hearts are special items that are slotted into the weapon of The Penitent One, the Mea Culpa. These hearts provide both passive offensive and defensive effects on the weapon which help aid in battle. These can be obtained as loot found at specified areas of a location, given by NPCs, as quest rewards, boss drops, and can also be purchased from Merchants. On this page, players can find a full list of all the modifications for the Mea Culpa that can be found throughout the game.

 

How to Equip Mea Culpa Hearts in Blasphemous?

When players open their Inventory and then switch to the Mea Culpa Hearts, the bottom text will say "Kneel in the sacred ground to reforge Mea Culpa's Heart", and the Icons will be greyed out at first.

In order to equip or switch the Hearts forged in the Mea Culpa, all you have to do is to travel to a nearby Prie Dieu to rest. And from that selection, make sure to access your inventory tab. From there, players may now change the forged heart in their weapon.

Players can only equip a single heart at a time on the Mea Culpa. These hearts are very powerful and provide buffs and effects to The Penitent One. Make sure to check the full list of hearts that we have below.

Increase the Level of Mea Culpa in Blasphemous

The Mea Culpa is a powerful weapon that is wielded by The Penitent One, and there's still so much to improve and learn about this ultimate weapon. For the Mea Culpa's power and level, it becomes stronger for each of the Mea Culpa Shrine activated by The Penitent One.

There are also abilities to be learned each time you reach a new level, and activating a new shrine also gives access to higher tiers for the existing skills.

To purchase Abilities, it will cost Tears of Atonement that The Penitent One can collect by killing Enemies or Bosses. The number of Tears awarded per kill depends on the type of creature that you are killing and there are also certain buffs that will help the Penitent One gain more Tears than usual.
