Players will encounter their first significant challenge in the third mission within the Forgotten Temples of the Embars Ruins. Here, at the base of the temple, after disabling a magical device that siphons Netherworld energy, you'll face the Revenant of Adversity. This enemy is a formidable fusion of Khazan and the Blade Phantom. Defeating it is your key to unlocking the ability to summon the Spirit of Advocacy, which will prove invaluable in future encounters.

Once unlocked, the Spirit of Advocacy can be summoned just before the final boss fight of each mission. Look for a golden glowing spot in front of the boss gate. To summon this ally, you'll need to use a Lacrima of Circulation, a rare item obtained by defeating other Revenants of Adversity scattered throughout the levels. Make it a priority to seek out and defeat these enemies to gather enough Lacrima for summoning and future upgrades.

After completing the Forgotten Temple mission, return to The Crevice where you'll find the NPC Daphrona. She offers the option to upgrade the Spirit of Advocacy using Lacrima of Circulation. Investing these resources will enhance the Spirit's health, damage, and stamina, making it a more effective ally during boss fights. It's wise to farm additional Lacrima of Circulation, as these not only boost the Spirit but also contribute to your overall stats and Vengeance Points bonuses. Additionally, Daphrona can utilize destroyed Soulstones to provide further buffs, so be sure to explore these options as well.
