APPLE PIE!!!!!!! and yah one on one there easy but there still annoying
Mission 11, the room where Vergil stabbed Arkham, that Hell vanguard + his buddies can die in a hole for all eternity, on DMD/VMD it's so damn hard to no damage.

i like to play games with music on, which turns the fight into pure evil constructed from the depths of hell, keeping them both on screen at once is ridiculously hard, thankfully i won't have to go through them again, as i can easily skip them if i intend to do a no-damage run or something with a extra challenge, and certianly won't need them to for training advanced techniques, actually, how are the bosses on DMD mode anyway? i never have an issue with vergil now that i have the ability to spam trickster style but havn't tried him on DMD yet, have any of the ones i never considered an issue gotten a serious power bonus? i feel i may need strategies for arhkam as that guy is so annoying i always use items to heal and don't bother fighting him, and the patience nevan is going to require is most likely beyond insane.

All Vergil's incarnations until 3 in DMD are easy. In DMD, however, i think he's the most challenging boss in the game simply because he forces you to take an offensive approach most of the time because of the healing factor. You don't want him to heal all that health when he goes berserk with his helm breakers or get offscreen to use that million judgment cuts. I use royalguard the most, so i always can net some damage while he's going berserk with his helm breakers, it's no too hard to just-release his helm breakers, and if you have some rage stocked you'll probably knock him out from the DT-mode in the blink of an eye.

As for your first question: it's really hard to deal with more than 2 Vanguard at the same time, the audio cues starts more to confuse than to help sometimes; so as people already said, abuse i-frames and dirty things like roll-cancel (with RG) sometime after you hear the bells, try to time it, but don't stress too much on it; instead of using DTEs or using your DT offensively, you can try to use it just to take less damage from their attacks too.

so far i find veril 2 to be hardest, as vergil 1 is so easy to dodge and vergil 3 isn't that bad in DT as i can get in a few well timed stingers, mix that with ebony and ivory plus trickster and i can get him out of DT quickly and safely, at least, that's how it goes on very hard mode.


might try the defensvie triggering, beowulfs the one that gives the most def right?

Vergil 3 is very hard on DMD, mainly because of the insane health regen.

I know right his health just zooms back up and it sucks when im dodging and i know attacking would be dumb and i see his health flying back up lol its like dammit i just got that **** down to where i needed it to be

I don't really know that specifics, i believe that all triggers gives you the same ammount of def. But seeing that Beowulfs "element" have advantage against Vanguards, it's not impossible that this could be real too. If you find the answer to this, please post here on this topic! I've never really dived into this kind of "advantage". But as damage goes, Beowulf is your best bet damaging Vanguards, killer bee JCs are insanely good against them.
