Walkthrough
- 1Climb the ladder near Muramasa's Statue to reach the Clock Tower Gears area.
- 2Jump from gear to gear, defeating Red Spider Ninjas that ambush you.
- 3On the fifth gear (after swinging on the bar three times), collect Crystal Skull #21.
- 4Continue jumping and swinging to the top of the tower to reach the Save Statue.
- 5If needed, use the Muramasa's Statue at the top to restock.
- 6Prepare for the boss battle against Zedonius.
- 7Defeat Zedonius by staying close, blocking and evading his melee combos, and countering with aggressive combos. Avoid circling the arena or staying at a distance.
- 8After the boss battle, proceed to the Jungle Entrance.
- 9Move down the path and eliminate the gang of soldiers.
- 10Continue towards the river to find a small hut with a ballistics soldier.
- 11Use a charged arrow to kill the ballistics soldier.
- 12Carefully jump into the water and eliminate the exploding jellyfish using the Gatling Gun. Keep eliminating them until Muramasa's Statue near the hut becomes accessible.
- 13Slowly swim through the jellyfish-infested river, shooting down any that appear.
- 14Reach the end of the river to find another small hut with a Save Statue and a rocket soldier. Use the Water Run ability to approach and defeat the rocket soldier.
- 15Enter the River Stronghold.
- 16Eliminate approximately 10-11 ballistics soldiers spawning from three different areas. Approach them by following their rocket fire.
- 17Defeat the Water Sentries that emerge using Level 3 Scythe combos while running on the water.
- 18After clearing the area of threats, a short cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) will play.
- 19Explore the huts to find Crystal Skull #22.
Tips
- When battling Zedonius, bait him into attacking you up close to damage him faster.
- When dealing with the jellyfish in the river, do not Water Run; swim slowly.
- If you have a Level 3 Scythe, a single hard combo while running on water is enough to destroy a Water Sentry.
