--MAIN OBJECTIVE: PREVENT THE BIRTH OF A GOD
++AREA: ADVENT CHAMBER
--OBJECTIVE: FIND THE BLUE ORB
The area is empty for now, so make your way to the back of the room to
find a blue Combat Adjusticator. This will be the last for Nero to
break, so strike it with mixed combos until Nero receives a SMOKIN'
SICK STYLE (SSS) rating to unleash a Blue Orb.
Once that's done, approach the blue mechanism and activate it to reveal
some Grim Grips. Catapult to the second floor and get ready for some
more enemies. Faust and his boys will crash the party, so bust a move
on them and use the mid-air Buster to get them. Kill all three to clear
the area. Approach the elevator and take it to the top.
--OBJECTIVE: OPEN THE LOCKED GATE
A floor portal will appear here, but ignore it for now. Approach the
metal gate and there will be a note on the side that says "PROCEEDING
ALONE IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED". The gate itself has two step-buttons on
it that need to be pushed in order to open. To open the gate, walk up
to the front of it and the camera angle will change. Use the Grim Grip
to grab one of the Scarecrows to open it up. EASY.
--OBJECTIVE: ACTIVATE THE ELEVATOR
Go up the stairs and then access the Divinity Statue to stock up on
items because this next section will be a bit difficult. When you're
ready to rock, approach the Grim Grips on the opposite side of the
floor and catapult to the other ledge. Use the Kick Jump to reach the
high ledge and then jump down.
Go to the other end to find THREE more Grim Grips but DO NOT use them
yet! Jump down to the bottom and you will find a Devil Star S sitting
by itself. Grab it and then go back up to trigger a battle with a trio
of White Knights. Eliminate them to clear the area and then jump back
up and catapult to the next ledge and jump down.
A solo Angelo Bianco will show up near the blue mechanism, so kick his
ass to clear the area. Activate the blue mechanism to reveal more sets
of Grim Grips. Catapult your way to the very top and get ready for some
more hilarity with Bianco and his boys. Approach the red activation
device and prepare for Bianco's ambush.
Eliminate Bianco and his boys to activate the elevator. Now jump down
from the left side and make your way back to the elevator. From here,
more Knights and Scarecrows will appear for an ambush. Take care of
them and then SAVE your game. Stock up at the Divinity Statue and then
take the elevator for a boss battle!

Sanctus is NOT as difficult to defeat as he seems. All it takes is some
fast evasion and a few hard aerial slashes to shatter this protective
shell. Even with that in mind, Sanctus does have some annoying moves:
--REPENT!
Sanctus will throw two waves of fire at you. Simply evade left to right
to avoid getting hit by both of them. If he doesn't throw fire, he'll
shoot fireballs using the two thingies that are in front of him.
--ELECTRIC SHOCK
Sanctus will shoot a large stream of electricity from his hands towards
you. Evade this attack by catapulting above him.
--THE SAVIOR IS COMING
Sanctus will usually do this move after he takes massive damage. He
creates an explosion of energy around him that damages Nero if he is
too close.
The main way to damage Sanctus is to damage the halo shell that he is
using to hover around the area. Catapult towards Sanctus and smite him
with a barrage of aerial combos. Evade his cheap attacks and then keep
attacking him in the air until his halo shell shatters (leaving him
weak and vulnerable). Grab him with the Grim Grip and then use the
Buster to reduce Sanctus' health by 20%. As long as you stay evasive,
there won't be any need to use Devil Trigger. When Sanctus has 30% of
his health left, he will start using the Savior statue.
The Savior's ground pound doesn't really harm Nero, so just wait for
the statue's arm to pull back and then wait for Sanctus to reappear.
Continue the same strategy to end the battle.
