Tips & Strategies

Manage Your Arrows

You'll need most of your arrows for the boss fights at the end of the mission, so we recommend you make sure to not use up too many of your arrows on your way there!

Use Knockback Artifacts

Using knockback Artifacts can help a lot. You will be surrounded a lot of times in narrow areas.

Knocking them back can give you the space you need to fight. You can even get lucky and knock them off the platforms!

Good knockback artifacts are Wind Horn and Light Feather.

Rune Location

Obsidian Pinnacle Rune

Obsidian Pinnacle Rune Location
The Rune is located in the library area where you can encounter 2 minibosses. It is in the area with a large open room. At the end of the room is a book shelf against the middle of the wall. Interacting with one of the books in the shelf will open a secret door behind the shelf!

Note: The secret switches to find the runes only appear after finding the Church after beating the game the first time.

Secret Locations

Secret Room

Obsidian Pinnacle Secret Switch
You might have noticed a room on the map that you can't seem to get into. Getting into the room is actually more simple than you would think! First, however, you'll need to complete the story for the first time.

This will allow you to unlock the Church. Once you reach the library again, head to the bookshelf on the wall where the secret room is. This time there will be a book that you can push, and pushing it will unlock the secret room!

Keep Your Distance and Use Ranged Attacks
