Devil May Cry, DMD 100% Challenge, Mission 10

S-Rank requirements: Time: 4:30 Red orbs: 600 Heh. This was a tough one... :p ... Apologies for long break since my last video. Hopefully there won't be as long a break again, not least because I would like to get this run finished and move onto other stuff now. A breakdown, area by area: FETISHES: AAARRGGGGHHHH, I HATED THIS AREA SO FUCKING MUCH! Oops, sorry :p ... If I'd used the grenade gun + Vortex, then this area would have been 100x easier. However, I decided to try and learn shotgun-hiking - something I had never learnt, and wasn't my own discovery. (A guy called Patient Vlakorados - who I rate as the single best DMC1 player ever - discovered it.) Anyways, I had hell with learning this technique - probably somebody who had learnt jump-cancelling in DMC3 would find it easier, since it's the same sort of thing: hiking off an enemy in a rhythmic fashion to keep on attacking in mid-air. But I haven't learnt how to jump-cancel in DMC3, namely because I've hardly played the game in a year and a half - I'm gonna go back to it and try to become skilled at it, but that's by the by. I cracked the rhythm for shotgun-hiking eventually, but it's tougher than it looks - well, for me it was anyway. BLADES: Cheap fuckers. At first I tried not to use Vortex in this area, but I got tired of getting hit, so well... :p ... Incidentally, if you spend enough time fighting Fetishes in the previous area, Blades won't regenerate in this one. SHADOWS: This area makes me a bit nervous because of the camera angles and Shadows going offscreen. Using E&I would have made it easier, because you can use Shadows' spikes against them (on earlier modes, you can get the critical hit that way). But I didn't feel like wasting time swapping guns. KYKLOPS: Annoying bastards! I considered buying 2 DT runes to have 9 runes in total, since a DMD Kyklop can be finished off with 9 runes of Air Raid. In the event I got past with 7, but by christ I was nervous about getting hit by that second Kyklop. It happened: in fact, I got hit in this area a couple of times by those goddamned Kyklops before finally making it through unscathed. Picked up the Holy Water. End mission :p
