The journey to unlocking the Spirit of Advocacy begins in the third mission, within the Forgotten Temples at the Embars Ruins. Here, you'll encounter the Revenant of Adversity at the temple's base after you've disabled a magical device that siphons Netherworld energy. This Revenant is a hybrid of Khazan and the Blade Phantom. Triumph over this adversary, and you'll unlock the ability to summon the Spirit of Advocacy for future battles.

Once unlocked, the Spirit of Advocacy becomes available just before the final boss fight of each mission. Keep an eye out for a golden glowing spot in front of the boss gate. To summon this ally, you'll need to use a Lacrima of Circulation, a rare item obtained by defeating other Revenants of Adversity, which now appear in each level. Make it a priority to summon and defeat these enemies whenever possible to secure more Lacrima of Circulation, crucial for the next step.

After conquering 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 the chance to upgrade the Spirit of Advocacy using Lacrima of Circulation. By investing these resources, you can enhance the Spirit's health, damage, and stamina, making it a more formidable ally in boss encounters. It's wise to farm additional Lacrima of Circulation, as they not only boost the Spirit but also contribute to your overall stats and Vengeance Points bonuses. Additionally, Daphrona can utilize destroyed Soulstones to provide further buffs, so be sure to explore this option as well.
