As the chapter begins, move into the left room from the Treasure Hall. You will see several fox statues, but only one is the right choice. To earn the Sly Like the Fox trophy or achievement, it is important to select all the correct options throughout this chapter. If you mistakenly choose incorrectly, reload the last save to avoid missing the trophy.

It is advisable to manually save your game at the Hokora after finishing each room to ensure you can reload if needed.

In the room with the fox statues, interact with the statue in the back left corner. You’ll extract an arrowhead that will allow you to obtain a Scroll, and the fox statue will direct you to the correct exit.

In the following chamber, you will encounter several foes. There will be one enemy behind each door, so try to tackle them one at a time instead of facing multiple adversaries simultaneously. Once you defeat all the enemies and collect any Faith items or Documents, interact with the box ahead to obtain the Black Sparrow Crest. After that, you can use the L2/LT button on your controller to create a passage and return to the main area of the Treasure Hall.

To find the second Crest, exit through the door next to the Hokora Shrine, which is directly across from the Mural Puzzle. You’ll enter an empty room and will need to activate your Vision to uncover two fox statues on either side. Interact with the right statue upon entering and extract the arrowhead.

Now exit through the door on the right to enter a room filled with various statues, some of which need Vision to be revealed. After unveiling the large statue in the center, interact with the statue to its direct left as you enter. Extract the arrowhead and proceed through the door indicated by the statue.

Inside, you will confront a formidable enemy, which can be tough especially on harder difficulties. There are illusory walls that can be revealed to enlarge the fighting arena, but this is not advisable, as each wall hides another enemy. It’s better to defeat the main enemy first before revealing the walls and then taking down the remaining foes one by one. Once you’re finished, open the box to receive the White Sparrow Crest before returning to the Treasure Hall.

For the final crest, enter through the right door. This room has numerous fox statues, and you need to make your way to the back left corner. There will be two statues; ignore the one farther away and remove the arrowhead from the nearer one to reveal the correct exit. Proceed through the left door into a large chamber where a spawning enemy resides in the center. This boss continuously generates enemies manifested as blobs within seconds.

You can lure the spawner enemy outside of the main caged area and deal with it first, then focus on the blind enemies that it spawns. Expect to face two blind enemies at once, which can be particularly challenging on hard mode.

If you’re in a tough spot, try to avoid grabs as one of the two enemies is likely to attempt it sooner or later. You may want to run away and try to lure one enemy to isolate them for a one-on-one fight.

Should you not handle the spawner when dealing with one of the blind enemies, it may spawn another. Thus, it’s wise to eliminate the spawner as quickly as possible. Collect any healing items present in the room as well.

After the confrontation, interact with the box to trigger a cutscene, and if you haven’t made any incorrect choices, you will receive the Fox Mask Crest alongside the Sly Like the Fox trophy or achievement.
