In *The First Berserker: Khazan*, the game's challenging boss fights can often leave players seeking assistance. Although there's no co-op feature to team up with another player, the game introduces an alternative known as the Spirit of Advocacy. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to unlock, summon, and upgrade this essential ally.

Players will encounter formidable bosses like Yetuga and the Blade Phantom, and the struggle can be intense without any aid. However, relief arrives in the third mission within the Forgotten Temples of the Embars Ruins. Here, you'll face a Revenant of Adversity at the temple's base after disabling a magical device that siphons Netherworld energy. This Revenant is a hybrid of Khazan and the Blade Phantom, and defeating it unlocks the ability to summon the Spirit of Advocacy.

Once unlocked, you can summon the Spirit of Advocacy, but it's only available right before the final boss fight of each mission. To do so, look for a golden glowing spot in front of the boss gate. Summoning this ally requires a Lacrima of Circulation, a rare item you can obtain by defeating other Revenants of Adversity, which now appear in each level. Make sure to take every opportunity to defeat these enemies and collect the Lacrima, as it's crucial for the next step.

After completing the Forgotten Temple mission, head back to The Crevice where you'll find the NPC Daphrona. She offers the option to upgrade the Spirit of Advocacy using Lacrima of Circulation. You can enhance its health, damage, and stamina, making it a formidable ally during boss fights. It's wise to farm more Lacrima of Circulation not only for upgrading the Spirit but also for boosting your own stats and earning Vengeance Points bonuses. Daphrona can also utilize destroyed Soulstones to grant additional buffs, so don't miss out on those opportunities.
