Bayonetta 3: Chapter 6 - Off The Rails Walkthrough - All Collectibles

Bewitchments

Stay on the lava wheel for 5 seconds - Just at the start of the chapter, head to your immediate right and jump on the lava wheel here. Stay on top for five seconds!

Run across the crumbling path without falling into the lava - During the sequence where the long path is crumbing away, make sure to move quickly, perhaps in spider form to avoid falling off as you go.

Avoid getting hit by debris thrown by Pyrocumulus - During both phases of the battle with Pyrocumulus, make sure to avoid all of the debris he's chucking in your direction!

Deflect Arch-Pyrocumulus' staff attack 3 times - During the climactic battle of this chapter, follow the button prompts to deflect your enemy's staff attacks.

Use Phantasmaraneae to knock Pyrocumulus off of the wall - A tricky one but you can manage it with practice during this battle.

Now, with all of that collecting out of the way, head back to the main route of the level and you'll kick off Verse #4.

Phew! With all of this done we can head on back to the main route, where the Gates of Hell portal was, and keep pushing forward. We'll now get a quick cutscene and Pyrocumulus arrives on the scene.
