RGR003 - The Mystic Artifacts of Boss Prevention

After your popularity gauge reaches a certain point (specifically, the blue part), operating the phone booth grants you access to Vortex's secret hideout. There, you obtain four energy domes which can be used to seal certain magical items from which Sutekh draws his power. Each of these items is actually connected to one of the Scarab-guarding bosses in two ways:
  • Sealing the item prevents the boss from appearing in Sutekh's lair.
  • Defeating the boss normally before sealing the item gives Sutekh a chance to steal the item.
See, once you have all five Scarabs, you place them in the base of Sutekh's statue in the graveyard, and a passage opens leading to Sutekh's lair. In this passage, Sutekh will have revived the bosses and placed them in your way. But each sealed item prevents him from reviving a boss. So if you seal no items, you have to fight all four bosses again before facing Sutekh. But if you seal them all, the passage will be clear.

Believe me, you don't want to have to fight any of these guys more times than you have to.
