Key Takeaway
The level 2 upgrade statue for the Ruego Al Alba is Beneath Her Sacred Grounds—an area below the Mother of Mothers region. However, you’ll need to beat Afilaor, Sentinel of the Emery and gain the Passage of Ash ability before you can reach this statue.
In Blasphemous 2 you must find a specific room to power up your weapons. In the case of your sword, you can upgrade Ruego Al Alba to level 2 by visiting a location in the depths.
Where to Find the Level 2 Upgrade for Ruego Al Alba
The location where you can upgrade Ruego Al Alba to level 2 is in the Beneath Her Sacred Grounds area. However, to reach Beneath Her Sacred Grounds, you must pass through the Mother of Mothers area.
To get through the Mother of Mothers zone and arrive in Beneath Her Sacred Grounds, you need all three weapons. Without the unique abilities of each weapon, you won’t be able to get through the puzzles in the Mother of Mothers area that leads Beneath Her Sacred Grounds.
On top of that, you need to beat Afilaor, Sentinel of the Emery so that you can then obtain the Passage of Ash ability. Passage of Ash lets you double jump—which is crucial for getting to the aforementioned upgrade room.
Here’s the route you need to take outlined in red on the map image below.
Besides the previously mentioned threats, along the way, you’ll have to get by multiple mild jumping puzzles, spike traps, and one large yet basic enemy. However, once you make the journey, you’ll be rewarded with the desired weapon upgrade.
When you interact with the statue, your blade will be enhanced as desired. There are no traps or tricks here—just a power increase for one of your weapons. Be sure to check the Weapon Memories tab in the menu to see Ruego Al Alba’s new potential.
If you’re looking to strengthen your weapons even more, make sure to use Resonances. The harder you hit, the quicker foes will fall. As such, the best defense in Blasphemous 2 is a powerful offense. Cut down all those in thy way, Penitent One.
