When you reach the top, a cutscene presents a new enemy; the Pulsework Knight. Like the other Pulsework varieties you have encountered, they possess remarkable endurance until Staggered, at which point they become immobilized and vulnerable to attacks. In groups of two or more, their blows can severely weaken your party in a very short space of time. Care should be taken to heal regularly or use a SEN to absorb some of the damage.
Once you’ve finished upgrading your party, sneak up on the pair of Pulsework Knights just behind you for an easy preemptive strike. You can choose to return to the previous Save Station while fighting a few more Knights along the way if you wish to practise those new skills. Return to the previous area to advance towards your goal.
Head down the stairs and run to the right where you will find a Hero’s Amulet guarded by two Pulsework Knights. Collect it then proceed forward past the crane and climb the steps. More Circuitrons and Pulsework Knights block your route forward but they are easily disposed of. Turn left and cross a bridge to reach an area with two Circuitrons who patrol in front of a Sphere containing 8x Bomb Shells.
Return to the previous room and head forward, down some stairs to reach a Save Station.
