Anvil's Ford
As you enter the clearing, look for the hammer sitting on the ground in the centre. Use this to watch a quick scene before a boss fight:
Boss: Uthane
To beat Ulthane, simply pop your Chaos form and beat him into submission. After Ulthane has taken the required amount of damage the fight will end.
| Note: Save the game here as you will get to an attempt a missable achievement/trophy. A counter will make an appearance on the top of the screen during the next section, if you kill more angels than Ulthane you will be awarded the achievement/trophy. |
Another scene will play - angels come to get you - fight them off and follow Ulthane. He can break down the blue crystals everywhere - follow him through two doors and after a third fight Ulthane will toss you across a gap into a nearby building. Fight off the angels here to open the sealed door. Use the green soul chest here if you need to recover some health before moving on. Drop down the hole (ignore the second green chest for now) and head to the far end of the room, pick up one of the bombs here and throw it at the bombs on the opposite side of the gap in front of you this will bring the bridge down for Ulthane to cross.
As the bridge drops, an angel will fly past and break down the wall of the room here - kill him and exit. Note you can pick up his big gun for a bit of fun in the next area. Make your way out of the building and down the path here, use your gun to take down angels as fast as you can. There are a lot of them and if they get close to you can do a lot of damage, so if you run out of health, return to the building and grab the chest we left in the small room after the drop earlier. Cruise down to the ruins here and around the corner. Clear the area. When you are almost done a short clip will show a pair of gun angels coming in. When they are dead you can rejoin Uthane, before you do however climb the demonic growth nearby for a blue soul chest. Before jumping down, look to the north, there is another section of demonic growth on the wall, use it to climb down and under the structure we fought off the angels in before to find a chest containing a wrath shard. Return to Ulthane.
Follow him and he will bust open a blue crystal for you to reveal another green chest – use it to recover your health. Follow him to the top of the ramp here to find another locked door. If you have killed more angels than Ulthane you will be awarded the achievement/trophy now. You will be awarded a new enhancement – Combat Lore (speeds up xp gain and increases armour). Head through the gate as Ulthane opens it to fight another boss:
Boss: Uriel
Uriel's Moves:
- Charge: Uriel will charge across the ground to hit you. As she performs this attack you can easily side dash to avoid it.
- Spin Drop: If you get too close for too long she will jump into the air and drop to the ground with a shockwave. Dash out of the way to prevent taking damage.
Strategy:
You will fight Uriel with Ulthane at your side, so he will add to your damage output. Uriel is relatively easy and can be taken down by simply utilising a hit and run attack tactic. If you start to lose a bit of health, there is a green chest in the middle of the area.
When she has had enough, watch the scene and Ulthane will open the door to the next area. Head through the door and drop down the hole. Follow the water around the bend, keeping an eye out for a blue soul treasure chest behind a waterfall on the right and another one on the left as you exit the cave into the man-made tunnel; continue following the set path until you exit into the Hollows.
