The Exterior Clocktower[1] is an area of Castle Salazar. A merchant can be found here along with a typewriter. While looking on a telescope, Leon can see Ashley being captive by Salazar. Attempt to reach her, Leon must venture into the Clock Tower while a group of zealots from the other structure firing fireball towards him.

Description[]

The outside of Salazar Castle is surrounded with narrow cliff. There is a bridge where it can be rotated using the lever inside the clock tower.

Guide[]

When exploring the room on Easy, the player needs only to cross the bridge to the clock tower and move on to the next bridge. On Normal and above, they must instead climb a staircase on the tower's western wall and go inside, operate the lever controls, and exist on the second bridge.

In terms of items, a spinel can be found on the lamp. If the player can access upstairs, there are a few crates available containing Rifle ammo and random items.

Enemies[]

There are four Purple Cultists who spawn on the clocktower wall on Normal difficulty and above, and a fifth will spawn if the player attempts to take a right at the stairs to avoid them.[1] On the east side of the area is a high wall where three more Purple Cultists will be operating one catapult each, forcing the player to keep to the north side of the clocktower to avoid the fire.

After leaving the clock tower, an additional ten Purple Cultists will spawn in two waves, initially as three on the bridge with another seven arriving as reinforcements as the player crosses it.[2]
