Suits Of Armour

Sir Lancelot's Suit Of Armour
Sir Reginald's Suit Of Armour

Following xTGE's video guide here on TA, and to consider mine as an add-on, I rearranged the collectables a bit in order of appearance on the Croft Manor Map (press ).

This should speed up the search process in case you see "Located in the Croft Manor" when searching for a missing item.

I was personally stuck missing 1 relic and 1 document, which seemed to be located in Amelia's room where the paintings are and I didn't take the ladder up...
