      For 13, I seemed to have a bug where I couldn't lock on to the Umbral Belly.

      I was able to get the quintessence by soulflaying without locking on though.

        For those that have noticed 15 & 16 are the same, the first SQ in the Abbey is just past the area where the priest tries to blast you a beam, theres a door covered with ivy and you need to walk around the door in umbral, just up ahead theres an area with a ladder in umbral its just off to the right here. Hope that helps.

          For anyone wondering, these DO respawn in NG+0 (and I'm gonna assume NG+1 as well) so you don't have to hunt down the specific ones you're missing and can just grab fresh ones in new game plus

            Pretty sure this guide might be slightly wrong.

            (1/1/1/1/2/2/2/2/3/4)

            Following it, I reached level 8 with the values looking like this.
            At this time, I have 1 and i'm looking for 2 more to get +9. I can confirm if it takes 4 to reach 10 after.
            But it's looking like it only requires 19, not 20 to reach max.

              Does starting a new game also reset the SAINTLY QUINTESSENCEs? Meaning if you're missing the last upgrade, you can just grab one from new game 0 or +?

                  These explanations for where to find the items are the worst. Never seen less useful guidance information than on this wiki....

                      Whoever's looking for the last one, since 6th and 8th are the same - go to elevator vestiges in sunless skein. From there go left going through bridge and continue through original path through the location. Kill 2 skeleton knights. There will be bigger room with emergence statue and there will be multiple floors. Last Saintly Quintessence is on the wooden ledge as regular pickup item, behind some metal bars. You need to enter umbral to make bars disappear and dodge roll to drop land on the ledge.

                      • These can dropped, picked up and therefore duped by other players. Use thst info if you want. Becuase with this game throwing so many enemies st you it makes SOFTS blush, you need a lot of healing.
