Continue Simon’s Quest Trophy in Castlevania Requiem: Symphony of the Night & Rondo of Blood

  • Continue Simon’s Quest

     

    Castlevania: Symphony of the Night: Defeat all the classic Castlevania bosses and obtain Dracula’s Relics.

    How to unlock Continue Simon’s Quest

    This trophy makes reference to Castlevania II Simon's Quest, during which Simon was forced to look for the relics to lift the curse implanted in him by Dracula in a previous installment.

    There are 5 Dracula relics scattered throughout the inverted castle in SOTN and you must obtain all of them if you want to face Dracula and get the true ending.

    Unfortunately, each relic is guarded by a powerful enemy which you must defeat if you want to obtain the relic.

    Note that the best strategy (and by far the easiest), is to use the Shield Rod + Alucard Shield to kill the bosses (“Tips and Tricks”). You can also get 2 Crissaegrims (Running on Schmooze Control) and defeat the bosses with almost the same ease.

    However, if what you want is some challenge, I will write some tips to deal with each boss. Keep in mind that the order shown below (which is the same as the Castlevania wikia) is not fixed, and you can defeat any of these enemies in the order you like.

     

    • Ring of Vlad: Obtained after defeating the Darkwing Bat located in the Reverse Clock Tower area (Check the map below for the specific location).

      Normal Strategy: Strike him and move back. When he starts flapping his wings, try to duck in the opposite corner.
       
    • Heart of Vlad: Obtained after defeating Medusa located in the Anti-Chapel area (Check the map below for the specific location).

      Normal Strategy: Get close, duck, and attack. Follow her as she moves back and strike again.
       
    • Rib of Vlad: Obtained after defeating Akmodan II located in Death Wing's Lair (Check the map below for the specific location).

      Normal Strategy: Do not get close because he is surrounded with poison gas and can grapple you and throw you into the wall. Try using distant attacks and spells.
       
    • Tooth of Vlad: Obtained after defeating The Creature (aka Frankenstein’s creature) located in the Reverse Outer Wall (Check the map below for the specific location).

      Normal Strategy: Attack it and move back when he raises his hammer. When you see jim kneeling, get ready to jump and evade his attacks.
       
    • Eye of Vlad: Obtained after defeating Death in the Cave (Check the map below for the specific location).

      Normal Strategy: While in his first form, destroy the sickles, get out of the energy balls reach, and attack when you see an opening. When he launches the two red sickles, move to each side of the room to avoid them.

      For the second form, when he raises both sickles get out of the way, because he'll slam them down. When one of his hands go up, try ducking, or getting to the either side of him. Attack when you see an opening as in the first form.

  • The trophy did not pop for me either. I did do them quickly with Crissaegrim and killed Death first. I reloaded old save and took my time to fight them and did the bat first, creature second, medusa third, mummy fourth and did Death last and the trophy did pop.
