Want to find every Doom The Dark Ages Demonic Essence? The easiest and most efficient way to strengthen the Doom Slayer is to collect Demonic Essence, a special item that permanently enhances your abilities. You're going to have to work for these enhancements as they're held by demonic leaders, unique variants of demons that are not only stronger, but also feature different attacks.
While it's certainly helpful to have access to Doom The Dark Ages campaign on the hardest difficulty, these power-ups are essential as they will prevent you from being taken down in only a few attacks.
