Took me 2 and a half weeks but I got all the Ironheart relics. Sometimes if the game was being particularly unkind I would be hitting Lascivious for the best part of an hour, other times he went down first go.

The games mechanics are far more complicated then you would think, add in the random factor of Shayd's hits and sometimes you wonder where you went wrong. As the game progesses, using different rune combinations will help you be more successful.

You haven't said what level hit rune you have, I currently have a lv9 oreciseness and trust me it makes a difference.
