Sekiro Sakura Droplet: What is it and How to Get it

​Sekiro Sakura Droplet is a Key Item in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. It gives the player an additional resurrection. How do you obtain this important item and unlock its power?

Sekiro Sakura Droplet

To acquire the Sakura Droplet, you must defeat Lady Butterfly, the powerful boss of the Hirata Estate region. She uses quick, elegant attacks and shoots projectiles from hidden wires in her first phase and uses more projectiles as well as illusions in her second phase. But defeating her will grant the player her Memory, which can be used to permanently boost attack power, and the Sakura Droplet.

According to its description, the Sakura Droplet is "A pink-colored crystal created when an Oathbound breaks their connection with a Divine Heir." It gives Sekiro one more resurrection but it "can only be used with the assistance from one who has the inherent power of the Dragon's Blood". This means that the player will need to speak with Lord Kuro after he or she has defeated Genichiro Ashina in Ashina Castle. After a ceremony, Sekiro will finally get another default resurrection. But think twice before carelessly resurrecting because each one affects how much experience and money you lose with each death.

Like every FromSoftware game, there is a ton of loot to find so quickly collect them from fallen enemies. Be careful with resurrecting in every life though because it quickens the spread of the Dragonrot disease.
