This section details encounters with Flea Armor, Lesser Demon, and Mudman in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It also covers the Lesser Demon boss fight and obtaining the Soul of Bat and Faerie Card relics.
Enemies:
- Flea Armor: These enemies bounce off walls and can be a significant threat, especially when encountered in groups. It is advised to fight them one-on-one.
- Mudman: A simple enemy that is only encountered when summoned by the Lesser Demon. It is important for completionists to defeat a few Mudmen to complete the monster list.
Boss Fight: Lesser Demon
The Lesser Demon is an easier boss compared to others. Its primary attack is flying around and summoning weaker enemies, including Ectoplasms and Mudmen. The Lesser Demon is invulnerable while summoning enemies. Players should defeat the summoned enemies and then attack the Lesser Demon when it stops summoning. A key strategy for completionists is to ensure they defeat at least a few Mudmen before defeating the Lesser Demon to add them to the monster list.
Key Items/Relics:
- Stone Mask: Found in a room with luxury chairs, accessible from the room with multiple Flea Armors.
- Holy Rod: Found in the same secret room as the Topaz Circlet.
- Topaz Circlet: Headwear that heals poison-based attacks. Found in a secret room behind a bookshelf.
