⚠**Read These Tips Before Watching!!!** ⚠ I plan on redoing this guide in the future (cuz I missed some things), but these tips are all you need to know. ⬇ -1: Riddle of Conviction! Give her the Port Crystal to get a duplicate of that item. (I missed this, but basically the sphinx will duplicate any item you give her!) -2. NPC's can be ferrystone'd to locations. (make sure you farm a lot of ferrystones before doing the riddles) -3: Bring the NPC to the pot, rather than carrying it yourself. (this is the best way to deal with this quest! and so you dont accidentally break it) -4: On Riddle 9, rest at an inn if you plan on fighting the Sphinx, (so you can reload this save) because when you complete riddle #10, she will immediately fly away. So make sure you can equip unmaking arrow to shoot at the sphinx! (so be an archer or warfarer!) -5. Always Rest at the inn before you start the sphinx riddles! because you could fail one of them and be screwed! So use an inn save as your backup! ⬇If you know any other good tips, leave them in the comments down below so I can add them!⬇
@@johnsauvageau3703 Worst case scenario you could load your inn save and quickly redo some of the riddles. But other than that, I'm not sure where it flies off to. 🤔
With the Finders Token it's simple, unless you ran through and around Melve with your eyes closed EVERYONE found their first Seekers at the birds nest or cliff or roof, or somewhere near Melve cuz thats where you start, I luckily found mine at the nest and I started the game a few weeks ago, it's not luck tho if you explored the town and area when u first start wich I assume everyone did, you found your 1st seeker there. All the rest are easy.
You can ride the sphinx to the second location btw. She doesn’t get angry if you grab onto her. She even commends you for doing so, but you don’t get anything, it’s just easier.
Great guide, but some methods can be done better (already)... that (near) trivialize some of the challenges. The first tip, being that you can use a ferrystone and teleport ALL npc's that you can grab and hold, and ferrystone to a location of choice. Put your port crystal down near the sphinx, which is the one you get from her first series of riddles. Then put another one down (optionally) near locations that - otherwise - require a lot of walking. Pick up a character from their location -> teleport to the sphinx directly and deliver the NPC. This also works on the pot-mission, but you have to bring the sculptor TO the pot (instead of risking the pot to break). I've also heard/learned that you can kill the sphinx without all the dialogue cheese you've shown, is by shooting the unmaking arrow -> in her wing. Not 100% sure on that one yet, I've just started my second half of her riddles in my current ng+. Also, in the riddle where she duplicates your prized possession? ALWAYS go for a portcrystal, or anything EVEN rarer than that (unmaking arrow, anything worth a TON of ingame gold, or have actual uses. If you explore properly, you'll have SO many wakestones, ferrystones and other items, more so if you are in ng+ with the endgame world loot (and gear) included.
Anything you grab and hold in your hands be it an object or person, use a Ferrystone to a port crystal and you keep that person/object in your arms. To avoid the aggro situation with holding a person is drop them periodically as letting them go and picking them back up seems to reset their aggression towards you.
On the last riddle the urn, don't touch it. Bring the man to the urn. You'll probably gotta revive him when you get him back so have a wakestone ready.
for both Vergil and vase guy, you can just grab them and teleport to her, there is no reason for them to aggro you at all; just note that do not place the vase guy onto the vase, put him near the vase and you should trigger a scene
idk how but I immediately knew where the first seeker token I got was lol I remember finding the first one and being like “tf does this do” and I found it right outside the first outpost you get to so I went back to Marve and had it done quick :)
nice! 🙌the game also gives you a big message about seekers tokens when first grabbing it, so that could also help people remember their first location. (hopefully) 😂
For the fight part as usal, triggered the fight and immediately used the unmaking arrow which did kill her and before she vanished she did praise me for that ! Quite interesting...
I have questions about using the Unmaking Arrow. 1. Can you be a Magic Archer or do you have to just be an Archer. 2. Do you need a certin bow to use it. Cuz i tryed it with a magic bow before she took off and it wouldnt equip.

Just shoot the sphinx in the wing. No need to aggro. No timing. Just equip the arrow, and shoot the sphinx in the wing
Because you're like able to pick somebody up and use a stone to teleport and still be carrying that person could you technically do that with the pot also?
I just completed the quest and fight, YOU DO NOT NEED UNMAKING ARROWS AT ALL. Just focus all your attacks and her hindlegs/body parts, do not attack her face, I just spammed skull splitter on her hindlegs and she died and dropped the key.
👍Good to know! I tried killing her before she flew away so many times, even got all of her HP bars to zero, still couldn't get the kill. I'll definitely try that out your method. thanks! 🙌
@@TrackstarOP its also a very tricky 'riddle' as you can see the black color body parts and scars on the vase during the Riddle of Futility, which indicates that her upper body parts need to be 'pure'
The trophy are for all platforms, but u will need to find your finders token for it, u still can complete it by using gifted token/forgery/or just wait for 7 days doing nothing
I went back like 20 in game days later with a token someone forged for me. I kept a couple for later since it's always in the same place. She was till there and I gave it to her? Not sure if the 7 day thing is real? Or mine just glitched
If you want a really easy time getting to the second location, just ride the Sphinx there. Bring some stamina restores or get comfortable standing on her back because the journey takes a few minutes. You'll miss out on the 5th chest but you can always go back for it later.
The recollection riddle is really getting on my nerves... the physics suck ass... and I have to place 9 statues (last riddle) on the tiny podium... I manage to get them on... start the convo with the sphinx, she flaps her wings, and off the podium they go... or I knock them off when I start the convo...

What if the sphinx ran off and you didn't know to kill it after the last riddle? Where does it go?
@@johnsauvageau3703 Worst case scenario you could load your inn save and quickly redo some of the riddles. But other than that, I'm not sure where it flies off to. 🤔
You know you can use a ferrystone while carrying someone...
"Instead of bringing the pot to the man, bring the man to the pot"
Sun tzu
Would that work?
@@jasperverhemeldonck211 yes
Works like a charm. Zero need to carry the vase that far. Omg.

I wish I knew about the grabbing of npcs to transport them while doing the Riddle questline. Would of made things SO much easier. 😂
On the last riddle the urn, don't touch it. Bring the man to the urn. You'll probably gotta revive him when you get him back so have a wakestone ready.
That works!? wow thanks for letting me know. Definitely going to try that out when I start a new game. 👍
Why revive him? Just hug him alive and teleport to shrine, put him down in front of urn, easy

So i killed the sfinx with the unmaking arrow.. only he fell to his death on the mountain to the right.. is it possible to reach thekey up there?
I waited til morning when the ox carts loaded up and out and went through as it did. 🎉🎉🎉 winnning
hell yeah! I tried going AFK and the cart broke when I came back. 😂
Also. Grabbing the npc in town and using a teleport stone to the shrine is a lot less stressful
@@MrDtubbs yeah, I found out about it yesterday, could of saved myself a lot of trouble. 😂🥲
PORTCRYSTAL makes catching the guy / bringing the other guy to the pot MUCH easier, as comments mentioned
On PlayStation, isn’t there a trophy for finding first treasure token? If so then there is a screenshot? Must investigate
The trophy are for all platforms, but u will need to find your finders token for it, u still can complete it by using gifted token/forgery/or just wait for 7 days doing nothing
@@Rin-ix9dl yeah but doesn’t PlayStation specifically take a screenshot whenever you get a trophy, at least that was a feature on ps4, would be handy.
I went back like 20 in game days later with a token someone forged for me. I kept a couple for later since it's always in the same place. She was till there and I gave it to her? Not sure if the 7 day thing is real? Or mine just glitched
For anyone that doesn’t know how many statues you should place in front of her..just look at the purple eyes on her wings..👍👍
OMG thank you was so worried id get it wrong cuz she asked me on my 7th not 6th wasnt sure if it bugged the order :P 😁
@@chronowolf427 it’s random order..but yeh as soon as she done talking she opens her wings and they light up purple 👍
save your self the pain riddle#10 just go grab the npc and ferry his behind to the pot next to the sphinx
100%! I wish I knew that before. 😂🥲
Should have given a port crystal for the riddle of conviction
If you want a really easy time getting to the second location, just ride the Sphinx there. Bring some stamina restores or get comfortable standing on her back because the journey takes a few minutes. You'll miss out on the 5th chest but you can always go back for it later.
You can do that!? damn the amount of secrets in this game is crazy.
dose the madusa head work
I put the wrong amount of statues down for the "How many riddles have you solved" riddle and she flew away 🙃
The recollection riddle is really getting on my nerves... the physics suck ass... and I have to place 9 statues (last riddle) on the tiny podium... I manage to get them on... start the convo with the sphinx, she flaps her wings, and off the podium they go... or I knock them off when I start the convo...
