Aveline's 20 secondary strikes

Steam hotfix 2.1.6Updated

On this page

To trigger Aveline’s secondary strike, move up or down as her spear attack begins, then immediately reverse vertical direction. The reversal produces another thrust. Perform the input while playing Celestian Sacresant Aveline Aboyé and track her 20-strike objective during the same run.

Input sequence

  1. Select Aveline as your champion and use her starting Spear of the Faithful.
  2. Move upward or downward as the visible spear animation starts.
  3. Immediately move in the opposite vertical direction to produce the additional thrust.
  4. Continue alternating up and down, watching the tracked objective until it completes.
Move upward when the spear attack begins, reverse downward for an extra thrust, then reverse upward to repeat.
Original input diagram. Arrows show movement direction, not a measured timing window.

The direction change belongs inside the attack sequence. Moving back and forth while waiting for the next ordinary attack is not the same input. Watch for the immediate additional spear thrust before repeating it.

Check the objective counter

Pin Aveline’s secondary-strike objective in the Objectives menu before practicing. The target is 20 in one run. Use that objective’s progress to check completion; several visible spear animations are not a reliable substitute for the counter.

Keep reversing direction through the sequence while checking progress. If you lose the timing and ordinary attacks resume, wait for the next spear animation and start the reversal sequence again.

Character and weapon unlocks

Collecting 10 Relics unlocks Aveline. Her secondary-strike objective rewards Spear of the Faithful separately, even though she already starts with that weapon. Character and starting-weapon objectives explains that distinction.

After the objective, use the evolution recipes for the Spear’s separate Chaos Sigil pairing and Thorn of the White Rose evolution.
