Save Keep

Method 1 (Jinrai)

 * Access to a katana that can use Jinrai.
 * Access to a Save Point with an exit.
 * The exit on the left side is easier
 * If the exit is on the right side, you might need to buffer another Jinrai in order to exit the room.

Method 2 (Waystone)

 * Access to a save point.
 * 1 Waystone

Method 1

 * 1) Go to the very edge of the save point that will still allow you to press UP to bring up the save dialogue.
 * 2) Use Jinrai to exit the save room.
 * 3) Input Jinrai but very quickly input up just after inputting the attack button to initiate Jinrai.
 * 4) The save dialogue box should come up and at this point you must confirm "YES" just as the room transitions out.
 * 5) If you do it correctly, the save menu will pop up and you will have exited the save room.

Method 2

 * 1) Get close to the save point (UP icon is displayed to bring up the save menu)
 * 2) Input UP~MENU (almost at the same time, but press MENU a bit earlier)
 * 3) If done correctly, the save dialogue will be displayed while the main menu is brought up.
 * 4) Finally, use a Waystone. This will allow you to move around while the save menu / dialogue is displayed.

Properties

 * You can now move around normally except the save menu will be blocking your view.
 * You can still bring up the main menu.
 * Exiting the main menu will bring back your HP/MP HUD and the minimap.
 * Use the minimap to navigate while in this glitched state.
 * Important: Be careful as to not accidentally save over files you care about.
 * Once you save a file or exit the save file menu, you will be back to a normal state.


 * Update: There is a difference when applying this glitch in a pure New Game versus a New Game+ file.
 * In the former, wherever you save is where the game will load you.
 * In the latter, there is a different location you are placed in.

Applications

 * Save anywhere in the game (as long as you can keep the menu active).
 * This glitched save file places you in a different place compared to a suspended save.
 * Saving your game during the Bael fight will allow you to load that file and jump into the boss fight.
 * Save at the bottom floor of the Tower of Twin Dragons then load the file. You will be placed right before the first trigger point for the Valac fight.
 * If you save during a Game Over, you will have a save file in whatever room you were in at 0 HP. Assuming you don't have anything that regens your HP, you now have permanent Zombie Glitch on a file!
