This area was really tiring. Almost every duel with Zephonim was costly with part of life. Their attack was sudden it can not be avoid and more it canceled your own attack. So you can not use Soul Reaver, but again some spear. On the other hand boss was the easiest boss and even among Zephonim thanks to his immobility.
The eggs are sterile, they do not work alone. Zephon needs to consume a human and then decide not to digest them, so that they are instead directed into his egg sack, where they spend their time until the egg comes out, and the victim is born again as a mutated vampire. Also, his clan messed around a lot with alchemy. And one of alchemy's principles was the fusion between the two opposite genders in order to achieve the maximum capability of the human body.
@Honestabe86 Meaning you weren't a fan of Blood Omen Two or Defiance. Blood Omen 2 wasn't made by an Edios team, so it seemed weird and had poor level design, and Defiance was too linear, I agree, but that doesn't mean there shouldn't be another Legacy of Kain game ever. If anything, the series needs a revive SO it can reclaim it's good name.
I know mentioning this is really unnecessary at this point, but the Silenced Cathedral was built by the humans of Kain's era, not the Sarafan. I can't imagine why humans wouldn't use such a powerful weapon before the rise of Kain's empire. Heck, it would've saved them so much trouble during the Vampire purges after William the Just's death. Sorry for nerding out like that, but I just felt the need to shove in my thoughts.
Trad it's possible they couldn't for whatever reason. Maybe they lacked a certain amount of technical skill or maybe the hymn would do more than kill vampires. Maybe it would cause ecological devastation until Kain's empire pretty much killed it already.
@FUCKTHEREST92 ...? But Drowned Abbey = Rahabim Territory, unless you mean Dumah's... but it would be more likely to be the area where the Razielim territory lies. I'm not sure where you're getting the term Abbey of Light other than from the Prodigal Sons mod. We could just chalk it up to the developer's kind of screwing around with the geography, Nupraptor's retreat is waaay further south than where it used to be, if I remember correctly.
+Artemis Arrow personally this was an annoying part of the game because of the block puzzles with the pipes and assuming your doing a normal run you do this at a time where you can't deal with the zephonim fast enough to not get disturbed(even if you go out of your way for the glyphs you can get at that point in the game)
@FUCKTHEREST92 I laughed a little at the SotC = PoN & OC = Chr part. I don't know what good fan of the series could possibly get that wrong. I actually started looking back at the game (been a good while)... you know what, you're absolutely right. I'm still a little iffy about Avernus Cathedral, but I take back everything I said. Oh, and I greatly apologize for my mistake about Prodigal Sons. I remembered them using a ready-made engine, but I didn't know how far they had gone in making it.
@FUCKTHEREST92 I always assumed that, but thought the geography was too warped. Then again, everything was pretty messed up in that era. Talk about cataclysms, right?
Przecierz to ujdzie więc sie tak nie schizuj! Gorzej jak sie przechodziło za pierwszym razem ale te wrażenia, poprostu niesamowite i te kombinowanie. Zephon wcale nie jest w SR1 najłatwiejszy, daj spokój! tylko Melchiah
a to jeszcze nie jest naprawdę wkurwiające spójrz na 2:07 te wampiry doprowadzają mnie do szału za każdym razem gdy na mnie zeskoczą albo zabiorą mi reaver (bo wtedy serio nie da się ich rozwalić) natomiast on sam jest według mnie najłatwiejszym bossem w grze
This is the music I play outside on Halloween to keep the kids away from my house.
lol
Scariest area for me as a kid. Everything else after it was a breathe of fresh air.
Seemed like one of the few areas in the game where the material realm version was creepier than the spectral realm version.
Loved the atmosphere, the boss, everything in this game is quotable but holy fk the camera control in this area was suffering.
"See how the human's weapon of destruction has become my home... indeed, my body! A cocoon of brick and granite from which to watch a pulpating world"
A crevice from which to cower only scuttling from the shadows to devour a victim already ensnared in your cowardly trap.
Step forward, morsel
those howling winds at 2:49 and onward is what sends shivers down my spine.
We are Zephonim. They shall learn.
Zephon was always my favorite of the brothers and I wished we could have seen more of him and his clan in the saga.
Zephon looks like the Alien Queen from Aliens.
I read that's where the creators took inspiration. Also Dumah was inspired by Predator.
BDLes12 Wow. Good thing he doesn't go invisible and shoots magical projectiles at you.
That just takes already cool characters/creatures and makes them even cooler.
the Halloween is coming!
This music is awesome creepy! Loved it! The noise the vampires made as they scuttled about in the cathedral......
My arachnophobia became worse after that! I'm still afraid of this dungeon! And the music makes it worse! Best OST of all time!

thanks to his immobility.
My game glitched and played this in the Lighthouse area. Didn't complain.
I would love to see the progression between all the brothers from vampire to monster including razels had he not been killed.
I've literally been working on theory art pieces of each of these guys and have only gotten halfway througg
@@greatshax68 Good luck
This was the song that gave me nightmares as a kid.
I sometimes play this when I have to deal with spider's
Fucking love the soundtrack on this game!
I just wish LoK's cult following would organize and demand anther game. I would organize to demand another game, but I'm not really sure how. D:
Who says we aren't :)
Janos Audron: "Vampires are no longer born." Me: "Then how is Zephon able to lay eggs, then? He's even a DUDE!" 0_0
(Un)Life uh... Finds a way
The eggs are sterile, they do not work alone. Zephon needs to consume a human and then decide not to digest them, so that they are instead directed into his egg sack, where they spend their time until the egg comes out, and the victim is born again as a mutated vampire.

Love it, this series was amazing, best playstation game imo

His face is moving APART O__O
Hehe, once he was handsome, but time did not treated him all well, apparently xDD
that unusual for the less famous of Zephon here to the right of the suggestions, and why your nick is Zephon hehe and I like your theme
Have you ever watched "The Descent" while listening to this?
That fucks you up... o.o
ese nombre me encanta y la musica tambien

I always hated this dungeon because the pipes and air lifts confused me

Ricardo Teixeira Plus with the puzzles, the graphics were so muddy on the ps1 I couldn't tell what was what

This clan and the cathedral is only goosebumps i hated the spiders in this because theyre so fast

Jak miałem tam rozwiązywać zagadki to się łapałem za głowe XD

@FUCKTHEREST92 how would it be build on the same site if Avernus was enfulged in flames (I assume like forever..?)
zephon is just pissed cuz he got turned into a mommy lol
I HATE SPIDERS!!
a to jeszcze nie jest naprawdę wkurwiające spójrz na 2:07 te wampiry doprowadzają mnie do szału za każdym razem gdy na mnie zeskoczą albo zabiorą mi reaver (bo wtedy serio nie da się ich rozwalić) natomiast on sam jest według mnie najłatwiejszym bossem w grze
@GEhotpants101
The series stopped being good after the second Soul Reaver
Annyoing creatures, but boss was easiest.
wkurwiający jest ten jego klan doprawdy :/ katedra którą dzierży ma wsobie wyjątkowe zagadki
