Walkthrough 7: Chapel Tower

Chapel Tower is a tall tower decorated with stained glass, with quite a few enemies that fly in through walls. The switch you step on after defeating the boss destroys every iron maiden in the castle, opening the way to the second half of the game.

Key Points

Bloody Sword and Marionette ignore terrain, fly in from off-screen and keep chasing you; they are a real nuisance, so deal with them as soon as you see them.
Touching a Marionette curses you, so be careful.
Bloody Sword drops Mars. Fire Sword has a large attack range once you put it together; recommended.
Were-panther drops Thunderbird, a powerful card worth getting now. Dullahan drops it later too, at a slightly higher rate.
The boss room section can be fully explored with the double jump and wall kick, and there is no reason to come back later, so finish it now.
After you step on the switch, the iron maidens blocking Underground Gallery and Underground Waterway disappear. Collect the nearby max-up items, go back the way you came to Eternal Corridor, and head to the Underground Gallery.

Attacks

Attack	Power	Element	Status ailment
Contact	380	Dark	—
Poison Bubbles One rises from the floor every 0.8 s throughout the fight (up to 20 at once), never near Nathan's feet. It floats up to a low height and wobbles in place for about 8 s before popping. Can be destroyed; Ice Ball Circle or Poison Cloud is recommended for defense.	290	Poison	—
Skulls 15 at a time, emerging near its hand on Nathan's side. They swoop down to floor level along a fixed U-shaped path, then fly up toward the center of the room. Cannot be destroyed. Dodge by moving or sliding toward where the skulls emerge (the wall side).	300	Dark	—
Fireball 9 shots in total, appearing in turn along a half circle below its head. Each one aims at Nathan's current position just before launching, then flies straight. Cannot be destroyed. Back away from the boss slowly so each fireball hits the spot you just left.	400	Fire	—

For damage, the rules for kills while frozen or petrified, and how drop rates work, see Game Systems

Strategy

It is nailed to the wall and never moves; only its head can be hit. The head is high up, so attack while jumping.
Recommended sub-weapon: Crucifix. Jump and throw it near the pillar beside it so the cross turns around right at its head and hits repeatedly.
Fireball and Skulls are each used once per cycle, in random order. Each attack is followed by an opening of about 4 s; attack then, and back off as soon as an attack starts.
Poison bubbles keep rising for the whole fight; with Ice Ball Circle or Poison Cloud active you can defend and attack at the same time.

With the Heavy Ring, you can push this area’s wooden boxes. Battle Arena needs the Roc Wing to enter, but there is a warp point partway along the passage, so opening it now is still useful.
