# Souls

<div id="bkmrk-souls-can-be-obtaine">- Souls can be obtained in 'loose form' by killing enemies. These are added to the current total in the bottom right of the HUD.
- The number of Souls an enemy drops in loose form depends on the current playthrough and to some extent the Damage inflicted.
- Souls in 'solid form' can be collected as treasure or by killing Bosses.
- Refer to the Soul Farming page for guidance on accumulating souls faster.
