Players are no strangers to the trials of facing bosses like Yetuga and the Blade Phantom solo, but relief is on the horizon. In the third mission, within the Forgotten Temples of the Embars Ruins, you'll encounter your first Revenant of Adversity at the temple's base. This encounter happens after you disable a magical device that's siphoning Netherworld energy. The Revenant is a hybrid clone of Khazan and the Blade Phantom. Defeating this adversary will unlock the ability to summon the Spirit of Advocacy in future encounters.

With the summoning option now available, you might be curious about when to call upon this ally. The Spirit of Advocacy can only be summoned just before the final boss fight of each mission, and not during other parts of the level. Keep an eye out for a golden glowing spot in front of the boss gate. Summoning requires a Lacrima of Circulation, a rare item you can obtain by defeating other Revenants of Adversity, which now appear in each level. Make it a priority to summon and defeat these enemies to secure the Lacrima of Circulation, crucial for the next step.

Upon completing the Forgotten Temple mission, head back to The Crevice where you'll find the NPC Daphrona. Engage in conversation with her, and she'll offer you the chance to upgrade the Spirit of Advocacy using Lacrima of Circulation. By allocating a specific amount of this resource, you can enhance the Spirit's health, damage, and stamina, making it a formidable ally in boss fights. It's wise to farm additional Lacrima of Circulation, not only to strengthen your Spirit of Advocacy but also to upgrade your own stats with the help of Vengeance Points bonuses. Additionally, Daphrona can utilize destroyed Soulstones to grant you further buffs, so be sure to explore this option as well.
