was playing with nero and remembered a very handy few tricks for people like devil trigger invulnerability cancel shuffle into charged shot or callibur cancel to do them do as follows

against a boss or enemy just before there attack hits dt with nero as during the trigger activation animation he is invincible and the attack wont damage him then just deactivate dt for the shuffle cancels do the backwards input for shuffle then jump and forward analog and y or triangle and you perform a callibur on the ground do shuffle input while charging blue rose and jump shoot it knocks you back you can even cancel shuffle into table hopper hope this helps ew players

Thats one thing nero's dt has the advantage of and i actually kind of find it unfair lol i mean when nero dts you can actually do damage and block an attack but when dante goes dt he just changes but i guess dante's dt allows for distortion so i guess its kind of fair thanks for the tip

 

[ef9dante_oSsshea]

dantes dt is under control and he has full use of his powers and it massively amplifies his strength and speed making him more powerful neros dt is still raw so he explodes with it when he triggers

I have loads more tips but its for new players so I dnt wanna confuse em ha ha

Frosts-Fausts-Dante-easy combat-so for frosts the min they appear run up switch to gilgamesh have swordmaster style on and press back and the style button to use real impact you dont even have to distort as it kills in one hit even on dmd if they are already running around do a stinger to hit them back and then follow up with real impact-for faust use the shotgun up close and personal also with darkslayer style aerial rave to drop its sheild then when it falls down switch to swordmaster style (you should already have gilgamesh equiped) and use real impact and when the faust is coming back down charge for another real impact to kill it off this also works for mephisto's as well.

nice handy strategy and not complex well said volpe

thanks when i figured out how to do that i was so relieved lol makes easy work out of both of those enemies

 

[VOLPE]

Bianco angelo's-combat-dante-so i realised that the bianco angelo's( the ones with the swords) are extremely easy to beat with dante using this method-so you stinger the bianco angelo when its on the ground you should have darkslayer style equiped and when you finish the stinger do a darkslayer ground combo and then imediatley stinger afterwards repeat this process untill the angelo sheild is broken after that use gilgamesh real impact to finish him off. if you perfer you can instead use gilgamesh instead of the stinger to allow to do real impact faster after breaking the shield

 

[VOLPE]

Angelo-combat-Dante-so these enemies are very different in combat then there brother bianco. when you attack their front they will block with there sheild and then stab with there jousting staff. what you need to do is the min you are blocked by there sheild hop over there back and when they stab you have enough time to charge and hit them with a real impact using gilgamesh. now the other method is to flip over there back and hit them in the air with rebellion holding the button so you come up in the air with them then while in swordmaster hitting them with the style combo then quickly switching to darkslayer to hit them "ONCE" and then switching back to swordmaster to hit them again with another style combo with rebellion-repeat untill the enemy is dead. either method above works. keep in mind if you have a room full of angelo's and bianco angelo's take out the angelo's first then focus on the bianco

 

[VOLPE]

Chimera Scarecrows-combat-Dante-etremely easy enemy they almost dont need a tip post however if you are in hell or hell and want to avoid damage when facing chimera scarecrows "ONLY" as if there are other enemies this wont work as well but if you literally just have a bunch of chimera scarecrows hopping around equip pandora and use the third transformation laser to hit a bunch of them away try and get them grouped together switch to swordmaster and use overdrive to finish them off(overdrive being back and stlye button with swordmaster) again these are some of the easiest enemies

 

[ef9dante_oSsshea]

not too shabby
