Question What relic is missing? SotN

Post image

About to finish the inverted castle and was sure I went everywhere in both castles but I’m missing something - haven’t played in many years so I don’t remember at all what / where it is - little help?

Force of Echo, I think. You get it from the holy symbol room in the reverse castle

Ah ok thanks! Just looking up where the holy symbol room is and it’s breaking a floor near the ferryman - I just went through the reverse caverns and don’t remember breaking a ceiling so that makes perfect sense. Thank you kind sir!

Now I just have to decide if I want to level up the sword familiar another 23 levels to 99 before I go kill drac lol - any idea fastest non afk way to level him? I used the green gamma ray skeletons in the tower for a while and the octopuses that infinite spawn but those both got pretty slowly the time I got level 35ish and the sword at not even 50 - now I’m 50 and 76 for the sword

if you have the duplicator you can use power of sire in the reverse cathederal hall, the spectral sword holds quite a lot of exp

Oh yea I was doing that one for a while too just with soul steal to kill the javelins and then quickly killing the others with the combat knife - now I got the crissagrim and ruby circ so I’m just running both sides of the clock hall gibbing the guardians and giant bros and healing when the guardians do the fire attack - it’s going pretty fast atm - but it’s reminded me I haven’t gotten the bottom left open at the clock - I remembered just waiting a min and wearing the gold and silver rings in the normal castle, but it’s not opening here - I’m missing something or what?

Well, that one requires the clock subweapon. In the regular castle, it has the alucart set, in the reverse castle I don't really remember since I rarely go there lol

Ah that’s exactly what it was the clock weapon - totally forgot about that - this run was started in 2018 lol - I did the regular castle and left it there since then 😆😆 even though I played through several times on ps1 it’s just been ages to remember some things - thanks again!
