Take the Elevator
At the start of the chapter, you will automatically receive Luis's Key. Collect any available items like herbs around you, then head to the back and take the elevator.
Prepare for Battle at the Merchant's Location
Once you're off the elevator, gear up for the upcoming challenges at the Merchant's location nearby. No new equipment is available, but you can stock up on materials and First Aid Sprays.
Board the Lift to the Clock Tower Area
After you've stocked up, board the lift to go to the Clock Tower area. Remember, you can always head back to the old castle if needed.
Battle After Ramon Encounter
Once you enter the Clock Tower area, an event with Ramon will trigger. A battle with cultists will follow, so make sure to reload your weapons and heal up.
Ascend the Clock Tower
Defeat the cultists as you make your way upward. Handguns are useful, but a Shotgun is recommended for shield-bearing enemies.

Take the Lift Upwards
Once you reach the top of the stairs, board the lift to continue upward. Cultists will attempt to board the lift, so either prevent them from getting on or kick them off.
Prioritize Defeating the Zealots in Red Robes
While on the lift, Zealots in red robes will appear. Target them first, as they can incapacitate you.
Move Along the Clock Tower Perimeter
After the lift reaches the top, head outside and move along the Clock Tower perimeter. Be cautious: the platforms can collapse.
Get Ready for the Boss Battle
Gear up for the boss battle at the Merchant's place. It's a good idea to upgrade your Sniper Rifle and Magnum for this fight.

Use Pillars for Cover
During the battle, use the pillars on the map to avoid Ramon's acid attacks.
Aim for Ramon's Main Body
Focus your attacks on the main body of Ramon that becomes visible from his outer shell.
Eliminate Acid Pools Regularly
Ramon frequently produces acid pools at your feet, which can cause damage if you step on them. If you're too engrossed in pursuing Ramon and neglect to watch the ground, you're more likely to get hurt. Make sure to use your Handgun to clear these acid pools whenever you get the chance.
