Walkthrough
  1. 1
    In the initial area, collect the Golden Scarab from the left balcony and the Life OTG from the right balcony.

    Enter the door at the opposite end of the balcony to reach the Monk's Room.
  3. 3
    Solve the Safe combo to obtain the BOOK OF EONS.

  6. 6
    Use the Book of Eons on the Altar to open a large sarcophagus.
  7. 7
    Jump down into the newly opened cavern.
  8. 8
    In the small cavern, find Incendiary Shurikens on a dead body, the Map to the area in a chest, and Golden Scarab #13 on the ground. Kill the Apparitions.
  9. 9
    Use the Save Point and SAVE your game.
  10. 10
    Proceed to the Corridor of Doom and then Econtra Babel Specus.
  11. 11
    Jump from bar to bar until you reach a Save Point. SAVE your game.
  12. 12
    Descend the large spiral, killing glowing apparitions with the Windmill Shuriken.
  13. 13
    Continue descending until you reach an area with a large fossilized dinosaur. Kill the Pincer Fiends that appear to clear the area. Note the altar near the metal gate.
  14. 14
    Enter the other metal gate towards Inner Econtra, an area infested with Wasp Fiends.
  15. 15
    Defeat the Wasp Fiends using Flying Swallow or Windmill Shuriken attacks.
  16. 16
    Explore the room and find Golden Scarab #14 in an upper alcove (use a Bird Flip to reach it).
  17. 17
    Jump to the ledge across from the Scarab, then use a Wall Run to reach a higher ledge with a chest containing a Life OTG item.
  18. 18
    Return to the Save Point near Inner Econtra and SAVE your game.
  19. 19
    Continue descending the large spiral.
  20. 20
    At the bottom, defeat the Pink Fiends and Apparitions.
  21. 21
    Access Muramasa's Statue to replenish items if needed.
  22. 22
    Enter the tunnel and jump down the ladder to find Golden Scarab #15 between the wall crevices.

    Continue into the Tomb of Eons until you reach a large circular platform.
  24. 24
    Open the nearby chest to find the VIGOORIAN FLAILS.
  25. 25
    Use a downward strike on the switch in the center of the platform to make it descend. Defeat the Brown Fiends that appear.
  26. 26
    Once the platform stops, enter the doorway to another cavern.
  27. 27
    Approach the Save Point and SAVE your game.
  28. 28
    Make your way to the opposite doorway to enter the Ritual Room.
  29. 29
    In the Ritual Room, defeat the initial swarm of Wasp Fiends with Flying Swallow attacks.
  30. 30
    After the Wasp Fiends are defeated, a new set of enemies, including Zombies and Archers, will appear. Prioritize eliminating the Archers first, blocking their strong arrow attacks, and then use the leftover essence for Ultimate Techniques (UTs) on the other Zombies.
  31. 31
    Once the room is cleared, grab the HOLY GRAIL item on the mantle and exit the room.
  32. 32
    Back in the Tomb of Eons corridor, eliminate the Zombies, Archers, and Red Dinos if you wish, or proceed back to the rotating platform.

    Strike the dial again when the platform stops halfway to ascend further.
  35. 35
    Make your way up the large spiral cavern, eliminating any enemies. Be cautious of the FOUR Archers waiting for you as you ascend; use Incendiary Shurikens and block their attacks. Falling will require you to ascend again, and the Archers will respawn.
  36. 36
    Return to the Save Point next to Inner Econtra and SAVE your game.
  37. 37
    Go back up to Econtra Babel Specus and place the HOLY GRAIL on the altar near the fossilized dinosaur to trigger the boss fight.
Tips
  • Remember to return to the Monk's Room in Chapters 9 & 13 for additional goodies hidden in the Safe.
  • The Wasp Fiends in Inner Econtra are described as Metroid-looking rip-offs; they are not overly lethal but can be annoying in groups. Flying Swallow or Windmill Shuriken attacks are effective.
  • When fighting the Zombies and Archers in the Ritual Room, prioritize the Archers. Be evasive and use UTs on the other Zombies.
  • Be careful when jumping between ledges in the spiral cavern; falling will reset your progress up the spiral and respawn the Archers.
