dante must die

[Jo]

i got no problems with human, devil hunter, and had some issues with SOS mode, but DMD is so much harder, i even dying to the first giant bug on prologue

[Supada]

wait on h&h

[Dr. King]

I recommend leaving DMD until SOS is easy for you. Even then I blew over 50 gold orbs trying to get through it.

So do you want encouragement? Advice? You gave us a statement but no questions asked.

First of all, if you want to complete this game, you will need time. It doesn't need much time to simply play it through once or twice, but to 100%-it, S-rank all missions or simply finish all difficulty will require you to be on a certain skill level and to reach that, that requires time. It all depends on how much and what ways you want to achieve it. The easiest thing to do, as always is youtube. Watching guides that explain certain aspects and mechanics of the game can quickly boost your knowledge and hence your skills. One of the most obvious one is how Nero's Exceed system works and how important it is to do DMD, since Nero's damage is pretty lackluster without it.
I already feel sorry for writhing an essay here, so instead of writing more that might be completely useless, I'd rather wait for your response. Thank you for reading and have fun playing.

Nero:
Buy grab arms and slow arms, ignore the rest. If anything is remotely annoying, slow time, showdown, grab, its dead. If its a boss, repeat until its dead. Its literally that easy.

V:
cry and spam royal fork.

Dinte:
Spam jump sword master with fist to hard-stun any enemy in the game after a few repetititons. Alternatively do the aoe lightning move with Cerb in DT to instantly hardstun in an aoe at nearly no cost. Walk up to them, mash punch, royal impact. Switch to stupid hat. Literally just hold fire. Just summon a meteor. Aoe lightning stun > kalina laser to instantly SSS v like 2 or more enemies; go into SSS SDT, instantly win fight, exit, repeat... etc etc he's completely busted in this game.

I am not saying you are wrong, but this method is good only if S/He just wants to get through with it. It won't improve their gameplay much.

[Arc]

That depends on what arbitary methods you're measuring "improvement" of the gameplay as. How long you can loop sword-combo-jump on enemies that can't exit hitstun? How many moves you can use for actually no reason at all (you only need to cycle like 5 attacks to deal with style reduction). Etc etc.

True, you don't need advanced combos to finish dmd without using dr faust excessively, which is considered cheesing by many, but who cares. You should play a game to enjoy it, but we still don't know what op wants, since s/he didn't really ask us anything.

[Arc]

I will assume OP is based and dante pilled like myself and enjoys being efficient

[Nathanx42]

doing DMD dante for M19 was hell on earth without red/gold orbs, I can only wish the OP luck with their run. Do SoS until it's easy enough, the upgrade to DMD is tolerable if you're pushing the limits on SoS until you reach the bosses

[Kryze]

The best thing I can tell you after having 100% the game is to try to pass DMD levels even if you have to use Yellow orbs and to first learn ennemy pattern on HOH since you'll have only 1HP and 3 tries you will probably be more careful and you'll find DMD much easier after that.
