[No spoil please] Bulwark's Armory = only way to loop?

[ChatGPTQBC]

Hey guys.
I have been looping for a while by using the pattern leading to the Bulwark's Armory ; it is the only 'hidden realm' that I know apart from the one of the golden orb so please don't spoil me :)

On several maps I found some other patterns for the loop portal machine.

If I use these patterns on the Sky Meadow, I'm pretty sure I'll access to some other hidden realms.
Thus my question is : if I do so, will I be able to loop to the 1st stage, by using these patterns other than the one to Bulwark's Armory ?

Thank you ! and please no spoil ;P

You can loop using the other patterns, yes

Another question if I may, I currently have a cheating death item. Does this work against the Void Reavers ?
Cause hell, I've died 2 times at stage 20 just before my commando achievement xD And I'm really pi***ed

There is also a way to loop without going into Ambry :)

Information about Dio's From the Wiki

The item's invulnerability period does not protect the player from being insta-killed by a Void Reaver's Nullifier Implosion.

Nothing wll save you from being instagibbed by a void reaver. Effectively speaking, they teleport you into the void when you're caught in the explosion- It doesn't technically do any damage even, which is why it bypasses all defenses and item effects including Dio's, as Dio's cheat death requires the player to 'Die'.

In answer to the main question, Yes, any pattern you find can be used. Alternatively, You don't actually need to go through the ambry to loop- When you find the stage teleporter on Sky Meadow, it has a weird series of pillars around the button in the center. If you interact with those weird outer rings you can change the portals alignment between the Planet and the Moon, allowing you to choose to loop or to visit the end stage respectively. Once it's in the desired position, just do the teleporter event and go through.

You know... you can also loop by changing the teleporter destination...

dio's revives you if you die to a void reaver implosion.

^this. While you revive if killed by a void reaver implosion, the brief invulnerability that Dio's gives you on revival does not
