Cuphead - Djimmi The Great in Pyramid Peril Boss Fight (A+ Guide - Perfect Run - Regular)

This fight consist of multiple stages, but there are more requirements then just beating the boss to get the A+ Rank. This is one of the harder boss fights so be careful. A+ Rank Requirements - Completed in less then two minutes. 3 lives left. 3 parries performed. 6 super meters obtained. Boss Guide - Djimmi can be quite an annoyance but if you get the right pattern it can be a much easier experience. Basically, this stage is divided up into 5 sections, the first being 3 possible events, the second needing you to avoid some pillars, the third you must avoid a sarcophagus, the fourth you need to beat a puppet while avoiding a hat and the final is the boss himself so let’s start. The first sections 3 possible events are as follows: Treasure Chest - The first possible event is the boss spawning and opening a treasure chest that will shoot out gems and other items at you that you must avoid. There are Pink items you can parry in this section. Cat Statue - The second possible event is the boss spawning cat statues that will break open and spawn mini enemies that will track you. You can parry the Pink ones for this section. Swords - The final possible event is the boss spawning swords. When all 4 swords are lined up they will shoot off one by one and follow whatever direction you were when it left the line. You can parry the Pink ones for this section. Now that you have completed the first phase you will be introduced to the second quickly and reaction time is key here. You will be faced will pillars that you must navigate through while avoiding the saw blade in the middle of them. To get through this section easy, always shoot the faces to move to the next part and hang back in the destroyed faces spot until the saw blade goes past you if required. The third phase is the easiest of them all. You simply need to get to the top of the screen and select the bomb option and reign down on the sarcophagus. It will spawn a ghost every now and then up in this section but you will easily kill it if you’re just holding the trigger. If required, go small to avoid the move that the boss does where he will send his eyes up and down across the arena. The forth phase is the last place you can get your parries so be warned. You will be faced with a puppet that will shoot out fire shots like the frog bosses earlier in world one and will usually shoot 3 blue then a Pink then 3 more blue and a Pink again before having a short break. You must also avoid the hat which will send out bombs in a 360 angle. Now that you’ve reached the final phase you must be careful to avoid the pyramids! There are two different moves here, the first being the beam that Djimmi will send your way every now and then and the second being the pyramid attack. When you notice one of the pyramids eyes open it will send out a beam going both horizontal and diagonal which you must avoid while it continues to move in a circle.
