In the unforgiving world of Code Vein, uncovering the memories of your companions is essential for expanding your combat capabilities and understanding the deep lore. The Hermes Blood Code, belonging to Davis, offers powerful defensive and utility gifts that can completely shift the tide of battle. Finding every individual fragment can be challenging, especially when tracking down the elusive Code Vein Hermes Vestige Part C.
Unlocking the Depths Map Swirling Flood
Unlike many core memory fragments found in the main storyline zones, this specific piece requires you to explore the optional side dungeons. To begin your hunt, you must speak with the merchant NPC located at the Outer Crossroads area after progressing through the main story. He will provide you with a special quest chain that ultimately rewards you with the Depths: Swirling Flood map.
Once you secure this map, hand it over to Davis at the Home Base to unlock access to the subterranean labyrinth. Navigating these side paths provides exceptional rewards, including the crucial fragment hidden away in the dark corners. Ensuring you finish the merchant's requests early prevents unnecessary backtracking later in your playthrough.
Navigating the Swirling Flood for Part C
The Swirling Flood dungeon is known for its twisting pathways and dangerous aquatic themes that test your positioning. As you explore deeper into this layout, you will encounter a challenging roadblock consisting of powerful elite enemies. Specifically, players must overcome a battle against two elite Ant-Type Executioners or a glowing variant that guards the vicinity.
After successfully defeating these formidable opponents, search the immediate battlefield area thoroughly to claim your prize. The crystal fragment glows distinctively on the ground, waiting for an observant Revenant to pick it up. Securing this part brings you one step closer to repairing the shattered mind of your steadfast ally.
Restoring the Hermes Vestige III Core
Acquering the individual fragment is only half the battle, as it remains unusable in its broken state. Players must head back to the Home Base and speak with Io, who possesses the unique ability to mend these ancient memories. You will need to combine both Hermes Vestige Part C and Hermes Vestige Part D to fully restore Hermes Vestige III.
Fixing this core unlocks high-tier gifts that significantly enhance your stamina regeneration and overall survivability during intense boss fights. Skipping these optional steps leaves Davis's backstory incomplete and deprives your character of valuable builds. Taking the time to hunt these pieces ensures your loadout is fully optimized for the late-game challenges ahead.
