You cannot mix between your attacks with either Rebellion, Osiris, Aquila, Arbiter, or Eryx, since it will not be counted as 'firearms kill'. You can do this at any Mission and any difficulty, but it is best to do it at Human or Heaven or Hell difficulty modes if you are having troubles getting it.

[Chaos Raiden]

Keeps getting better and better

Description: Gain a 100% completion rank on all missions (difficulty doesn't matter)
Difficulty: 4/10
How to get it: To get 100% completion rank on all Missions, you need to obtain all of the keys available in the game, kill every Lost Souls, and open every Secret Doors. You will not be able to get this Trophy in the first playthrough since some of your weapons and abilities are locked from the start. Refer to this link for complete guide to get 100% on all Missions: http://devilmaycry.org/games/dmc-devil-may-cry/guides/collectibles

Stylish!

Description: Complete a mission with SSS rank
Difficulty: 4/10
How to get it: You can get this Trophy easily in Mission 6, Mission 10, Mission 14, and Mission 20 easily since you do not need to get any collectibles to get SSS rank for Completion bonus, thus automatically reward you for SSS in Completion bonus.

To get an SSS rank in a Mission, you need to get SSS rank for Combat, Time, and Completion. Since These missions focus on boss fights, you do not need to collect anything, and need only to focus on both Combat and Time to get SSS rank. To get high Combat rating, attack the boss with high Stylish Ranking as much as possible, dodge whenever an attack is incoming, and defeat it as fast as possible. You may also attempt to get this Trophy at other Missions if you want to.

Too easy!

Description: Complete all Missions on the Son of Sparda difficulty
Difficulty: 5/10
How to get it: Simple enough, as you need to complete all Missions in SOS difficulty. The difficulty is slightly harder than Nephilim mode, since tougher enemies spawn earlier in earlier Missions. Enemies also deal slightly higher damage to you and are slightly more aggressive. Not too hard for average or veteran DMC players. Beating the game in SoS mode will also reward you a new costume, as well as two new difficulties which are Dante Must Die and Heaven or Hell difficulties.

Devils never cry

Description: Complete all Missions on the Dante Must Die difficulty
Difficulty: 6/10
How to get it: You need to beat all Missions in DMD difficulty, which can be difficult for average players. Like previous DMC games, enemies will enter into Devil Trigger state after a certain time period, and they are more aggressive and stronger than SoS mode. Do not be afraid to use items to complete the Missions, since using an item will not permanently penalises you from getting an SSS rank in a Mission.

Completing the game in DMD mode will reward you Super Dante. Super Dante will grant you infinite Devil Trigger mode, but penalises your Mission ranking heavily.

This is what I live for!

Description: Complete all Missions on the Heaven or Hell difficulty
Difficulty: 3/10
How to get it: You need to beat all Missions in HOH difficulty, which is very easy to do so since all enemies will die with one hit from Dante. However, Dante will also die from one hit by the enemies, thus caution is needed. You will be granted three Gold Orbs, where you can revive automatically after being killed by an enemy or by environmental hazards. If you die four times, you need to restart from the checkpoint.

And welcome to hell!

Description: Complete all Missions on the Dante Must Die difficulty
Difficulty: 7/10
How to get it: You need to beat all Missions in HAH difficulty, which can be difficult for many players if they do not use Super Dante. Like DMC4, enemies will have regular health whereas Dante will still die from one hit like HOH mode. Using Super Dante will help you easily to get through all Missions in HAH mode, but not the final Mission since the final boss is much more unpredictable and dangerous. Again, you will be granted three Gold Orbs where you can be revived automatically after being killed by enemies or by environmental hazards..

Jackpot!

Description: Complete all Missions on the Nephilim difficulty with a SSS rank
Difficulty: 5/10
How to get it: You need to beat all Missions in Nephilim difficulty with SSS rank. First, you need to get every collectibles in the game, and then proceed to get SSS rank in every Mission in Nephilim mode. It is not hard, but requires some practice to get a SSS rank in each Mission. To get SSS rank in a Mission, you need to have high score in Combat rating, fast completion time, and complete collection of collectibles. Remember to not use Super Dante to get SSS rank in every Mission in Nephilim difficulty.

This party's just getting crazy!

Description: Complete 10 Secret Missions
Difficulty: 3/10
How to get it: You need to complete 10 Secret Missions that are unlocked in the game. To unlock a Secret Mission, you need to unlock a Secret Door with the correct Key.

One hell of a party!

Description: Complete all of the Secret Missions
Difficulty: 3/10
How to get it: You need to complete all of the Secret Missions in the game. None of the Secret Missions are tough, thus most players would have little difficulty in completing all of them.
