Ok this is where im at ive came all the way through the fire spitting heads,and went and got the first Soul Stone to get the Relic of Power there.well I went over to get the second Soul Stone where you have to kill 3 Shadow Wraiths killed one not really sure how I killed it just died,well I fought the other two for probally 2 hours keeping myself well healed with High Potions and Celestial Magic,but it seems when I get them down they heal thereselves or something because everytime they teleport to one of those 4 spots they have either full health or half health again and after 2hours of summoning 10-12 darklords at a time and celestial Angels and hitting them with my Fire Enchanted Great Sword with 7-20 dmg you would figure they would be dead by now but there not even down in the Yellow so im out of Ideas so if you can possibly give me a tip on why I cant killl them it would really help.^^

I really gotta quit writing so fast make my writing sloppy

What I really need help with is the Shadow Wraiths at the end of the Ruins after the fire breathing heads in the wall. I killed one but I dont know how I managed to kill him really. I fought the other two for 2 hours I know constantly throwing on High Potions and Celestial Magic heals.
But it seems every time they teleport to one of thos 4 spots they heal. I mean I might be wrong but after summoning 10-12 Celestial Angels and 10-12 dark lords and hitting them with my Fire Enchanted Great Sword you would think they would be dead. But no there not even down in the Yellow alot of times still high in the green. If you can help me would really love it because this is just getting annoying x_x

I see you're pretty far in the shadow ruins... I'm stuck in a room with 3 so called 'athena guardians' (theese giant stone sculptures with swords).They don't move, just stand there. There are 4 shadow gates. When I first entered that room, 2 of them were active (the one I came in and another one). I came through that gate and landed on some flying islands with 2 shadow gates on each one.
And then somehow I returnet to that room. This time there's only 1 shadowgate active: the one I came in and it leads back to the flying islands.
Did I miss something before?

For Dantoine:
if you are in the room with something similar to a spinning in the center don't try to kill shadow but you must jump near the center to take the soul crystal on the ceiling. you must try a lot of time. I use angel to keep busy the shadow so I can try jumping.
For Phaet:
enter the shadow gate and go around until you find a chest. In the chest there is the soul stone to activate one of the athena guards. Kill her and another shadow gate will activate. repeat till the end.
I hope this could help. Bye.

It worked. Now I'm stuck with this... chess game. I activate the altar, move to one rune, some statue moves... but when I reach the 3rd one, gate closes and I have to do it all over again.

Oh and Phaet look at the Runes on the Chees Game,they all have a ceartin color,like the Blue will move the statue with the blue crystal in its chest,and the red will move the red and the orange will move the orange,and acorss the yellow will move the yellow.
Anyway look at those and come up with a strategy to getting around them I think I started on the far right,and went by the colors. by the way just a couple tips,when they move dont let them walk up on the side of you or right infront of you or the gates will close and you will have to fight the statue.
Oh and make sure you save your game before you start,because I was in the middle of it and went back about the 6th messed up time and it said Item Requried so my stone seem to have dissapeard. Luckily I had a saved game before I did it. ^^

Just do couple of backflips. I got high enough in the 3-4th attempt.

Cheers.

Dantoine, start on the far right then step the the left then back right thenleft then left then up then right then up up and that should be it if not its darn close, you will know your going good when the farthest statue on the right is on the second stone from where u started and the second one on the right is one behind her you can move on the space right next to the statues as long as your comming from the side they dont attack, I hope this helps.
