Catacombs level: Map, important rewards, and spirit skills
Let’s talk about the important stuff that we can find in the Catacombs level of Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights.
First, take a look at the map below:
1. This is part of the Cliffside Hamlet near the Collapsed Shack respite. This is where you’ll activate the lever so you can pass through the waterway going to the Catacombs.
2. Respite: Bottom of the Well – You’ll find the Fretia’s Ring relic here which allows you to parry.
800x Furious Blight – To get this, you’ll need to acquire the Verboten Champion and Incompetent Sinner spirits in the Verboten Domain, as well as the abilities of Knight Captain Julius (Ruined Keep) and Ulv, the Mad Knight (Twin Spires). Once you have these, fall down to the room below the respite. Wall climb to your left do some acrobatics (i.e., double jump -> Incompetent Sinner -> Verboten Champion -> air dash until you can wall climb on the opposite side). Go up to obtain the reward.
3. Spirit skill/miniboss: Elder Crypt Keeper – Found on the left side of this room.
4. Respite: Charnel
5. 2x Ancient Soul – There’s a lever on the left side of this room. You can do a ground smash from a higher ledge. Then, crouch and drop down to interact with the lever. It’ll remove the barricade to the right, allowing you to swim down and pick up 2x Ancient Souls.
Likewise, there’s an Amulet Fragment at the bottom-right edge of this area (just before one of the exits). Use Gerrod’s smash to reveal it.
6. Relic: Kilteus’ Ring – Found in a nook on the left side of this room.
7. Locked door/Stone Tablet – Found on the upper-left side of this room.
8. Respite: Great Hall – You can get 30x Stagnant Blight from a ledge at the top of this room once you have the grappling hook from Hoenir (the boss in the Stockade).
9. 10x Stagnant Blight – This one’s fairly well-hidden. You’ll need to reach the right side of this chamber to spot a submerged area and, above that, a few ledges. Check the center of this section (seen in the image below). You can break apart this floor by doing a ground smash from higher up.
10. Boss fight: Guardian Silva – There’s a barricade initially at the Great Hall respite (#8). You have to loop around from the Great Hall until you reach the room below the respite. If you climb up to the Great Hall again, you can pull the lever to remove the barricade. This allows you to have a somewhat shorter run from the savepoint to the boss’ chamber.
11. Respite: Ossuary – You can get 30x Furious Blight by using the grappling hook to cross the gap below the savepoint.
12. Climbing the large chamber to the right of the Ossuary takes you to a snow-covered area (seen below). This leads to the Bastion Gates respite just before the Ruined Keep and Twin Peaks zones.
Note: To clarify, there are other important rewards here. These include the Fallen Archer (spirit skill), White Priestess Statue (relic), and Holy Spring Water (relic). Unfortunately, I was unable to record the exact spots where I got these.
In any case, let’s talk about the Guardian Silva boss fight in the next part of our guide.
