During the beginning sections we can find ourselves our first Life Sigil, though these don’t really count towards 100%, they can still be useful. Our first of 2 Rubies is also nearby

Life Sigil 1
As soon as the chapter begins, follow the right path to pick up some Gold, then jump across to reach the secret area with the first Life Sigil.

Yellow Key
Collect the Yellow Key Card as part of the main mission and return to the previous area. The next part is pretty intense, as there are many enemies to kill. Now’s a good time to work on the Mission Challenges.

Ruby 1 and Gold

How to Complete Chapter 8 Mission Challenges
The three Chapter 4 Mission Challenges are:
- Ghost Buster: Parry projectiles from Revenants.
- Knockout: Kill four dazed demons with Shield Charge.
- Bone Collector: Acquire 100 ammo as drops from melee demons.

Dazed enemies have a purple aura around them. When you notice a purple-glowing demon, use Shield Charge on it and it will count as progress for the Knockout challenge. The Bone Collector challenge is easy but missable. Make sure not to cap ammo as you won’t be able to pick up more. You can complete the Ghost Buster challenge as soon as you head outside after getting the Yellow Card. Parry three of its attacks and you will be done with it. The combat arena after the second Sentinel Shrine is a great spot to make progress for these challenges.
