The First Berserker: Khazan: All Collectibles in Phraugh Village
Where to find every soulstone, jar, and note across all of the missions in Phraugh Village.
#8. Atlante The Precise
Tied to a quest given to theplayerbyBellerian,Atlante, falls short of her uses outside of exploration combat. Her phantom power empowers the usage of Khazan’sjavelinandRanged Attack, which can also affect certain consumables when thrown.Atlanteis the lowest tier priority Phantom due to low utility use and next to no use against any of the middle-to-late game boss fights. Though the early gamebossesmay have seen some use of her, it’s more likely that Atlante will only be of use to players doing ajavelin-onlyrun in the dungeons and will never see a real boss fight where otherPhantomsoffer better utility.
#7. Veronika The Advocate
Veronikais a Phantom that works hand in hand withSpirits of Advocacyin empowering their damage and health pools. Useful for beginners to the genre and can aid in the longevity of spirits that helpKhazanduring difficult boss fights. However, using any Spirit of Advocacy during a run will lock a player out of the achievement:Standing Alone, and it is not recommended to use thisPhantomon a first run playthrough. Leaving Veronika as a last-ditch use of Phantom on the harderNew Game+Runs.
#6. Constantine The Devoted
Constantineis a niche pick when it comes to the availablePhantoms.Using his power to empower thePhantom Forcegauge can be seen as useful. However, the Phantom Force relies on its skill tree in the common tab to be fully utilized along withConstantine. While this Phantom’s power can increase Phantom Force gauge gain, it offers little else in sustain or utility. A useful pick for very niche builds.
#5. Adelhaide The Philanthropic
Adelhaidespecializes in increasingHealth Recoveryalong with decreasing incoming damage taken while usingNetherworld energy.Adelhaide can also regain netherworld energy if theplayerhas none, if they performbrutal attacks. While Adelaide may be helpful in the early game, she quickly falls to the wayside in favor ofsoulstoneupgrades. By obtaining more soulstones in different dungeons, the player can choose to upgrade theirLacrimagain or their healing recovery fromDaphrona. By mid-game, the player will be earning an ample amount ofLacrimaalong with options to turn old weapons and armor into Lacrima amounts, leading to a higher benefit of soulstones to increase healing recovery. While thisPhantomhas its uses, it’s best to focus on others instead.
#4. Keshta The Unyielding
The First Phantomyou’ll ever recruit and will need to be defeated in his bonus quest given byBlade Phantom, before actually obtaining it.Keshtais in the Top 5 of most useful Phantoms due to hisStamina Recoveryrate and restoration during the early to mid-game dungeons and bosses before the player has access to higher-quality armor sets that boost Stamina Recovery on their own. A fine pick for long, drawn-out boss fights, such asMaluca, Viper,andShactuka.
An all-around type ofPhantomthat is useful throughout the main story and most bosses if you value other stats over stamina recovery.

#3. Wulfric The Resilient
Wulfricis aPhantomthat boostsFrontal Assaultdamage and increases spirit gain while performing perfectcounterattacksandbrutal attacksagainst exhausted enemies. This Phantom is perfect forGreatswordbuilds that require extra damage to make up for the slower swing build-up and charged attacks. A useful pick for most bosses that have delayed attacks, it can be punished with the extra chip damage this Phantom provides with its power.
ThisPhantomDecreases Stamina loss when dodging and can increase when performing aBrink Dodge.Conradis a beneficial Phantom against bosses with attacks that require dodging to avoid build-up obtained from blocking, such asTrokkaand elite enemies within dungeons and bonus missions. This Phantom pairs perfectly withDual BladeandSpear-based builds that rely on speed and higher stamina usage.

#1. Maximilian The Impenetrable
One of the late-gamePhantomsis also one of the more useful ones against late-game bosses, whereBrink Guardis made a priority, especially against bosses likePrincess IlyaandOzma.Maximiliandecreases the stamina damage incoming from guarding and can restore stamina upon a first upgrade, and increases stamina damage dealt by the player by 5%, and is stackable up to five times. However, this is balanced when the player takes damage or fails to perform a follow-up Brink Guard. This Phantom works well with any weapon build.
Whether you chooseMaximilianor any of the otherTop 5 Phantoms, either of them are well-rounded picks for your run inThe First Berserker: Khazanand makes an excellent accompaniment depending on your armor and weapon build.
