In Death Stranding 2, summoning large BTs to fight for you is one of the most exciting mechanics you’ll encounter. If you're curious about how to harness this power and use it to your advantage, you're in the right place. This guide will walk you through the process of summoning these powerful creatures, detailing the steps and important tips to ensure your success in these epic battles.
Step 1: Unlocking the Summoning Ability
To start summoning large BTs, you’ll need to progress through Chapter 1, completing Order Number 3 or Order Number 4. This will introduce you to the X Grenade, which is the key item required for the summoning process.
Once you have the X Grenade, make sure you're prepared to face larger BTs. These aren’t the small, everyday enemies that you encounter throughout the world. You’ll specifically need the larger BTs, which are characterized by their enormous size and distinctive features—namely their mouths.
Step 2: Targeting the Right BTs
To summon a BT to fight for you, it must be one of the larger ones. These large BTs have mouths that serve as the target for your X Grenade. Simply throwing the grenade at the BT won’t be enough; you must aim directly at the mouth for the summoning to work.
In some cases, you'll have a better shot at hitting the BT’s mouth when it’s temporarily idle. For instance, during combat, the BT may fall over or pause for a brief moment (around 10–15 seconds). This is your chance to throw the grenade accurately.
Take a look at the following clip to see how I missed my first attempt but succeeded the second time. When you land the shot, you’ll earn the Best Friend Trophy, a nice little bonus for your efforts.
Step 3: Defeating the BT and Collecting the Reward
After successfully summoning a BT to fight for you, you must defeat it, just like you would any other BT. Once the BT is defeated, make sure to collect the white crystals that are scattered around the battlefield. These crystals are vital for progressing in your ability to summon BTs.
One particular item to look for among the collected crystals is the golden one. This substance is a key component needed for summoning the large BTs. Without it, your effort will have been in vain, as it’s the substance that powers the summoning process.
So far, I've only encountered one BT that drops this golden substance, but it’s likely that more will appear as you progress further in the game. You may be able to summon other large BTs once you have this item.
Step 4: Using the Summon Effectively
Once you’ve collected the golden substance, you can summon large BTs during specific battles. However, there are restrictions to keep in mind:
-
You cannot summon large BTs to fight against regular enemies. Summoning can only occur in specific, larger battles—typically against other large BTs or major bosses.
-
Summons are limited to certain areas. You won’t be able to summon a BT to fight for you in every part of the game. You must be in the right context, such as a major boss fight or when facing similarly sized BTs.
Step 5: What to Expect During Summoning Battles
When you finally summon a large BT, you’ll witness a powerful battle between your summoned ally and the enemies you’re facing. The summoned BT will fight alongside you, making the battle feel like a true spectacle.
In a recent battle, I was able to summon a BT against a formidable boss, and the fight was absolutely thrilling. The summon fought with incredible strength, and it was awe-inspiring to see such a large creature take down the massive enemies that I was struggling against.
Bonus Tips for Summoning BTs
-
Timing is Everything: Make sure you’re prepared to act when the BT is momentarily vulnerable. You only have a few seconds to land your shot, so be quick.
-
Don’t Forget to Collect the Golden Substance: If you miss out on this crucial item, you won’t be able to summon other BTs. Be sure to pick it up before moving on.
-
Strategize Your Battles: Don’t waste your summons on small enemies. Hold off until you’re facing larger threats or boss-level challenges where a summoned BT can make a real difference.
