Something I feel like I should mention for anyone still struggling, is that Rodin can heal you inbetween verses if you’ve upgraded his “R” move (the dance) so that it gains a healing element, and he’s the only thing in the game that can do that that’s also allowed in Witch Trials

[@TragoudistrosMPH]

Alarune can heal with her Special button petals.

[@TheChampionLion626]

@@TragoudistrosMPH On my winning run I used Rodin, Clock, and Baal as my demons, I just found that Alarune’s healing isn’t effective enough when everyone 3-4 taps you anyway

[@josekleberson8249]

kick pause kick also heals as well

[@DIOsNotDead]

pretty great that this game has lots of exploits, so i guess this is actually the easiest of the trilogy. in Bayo 1 and 2, i think the only way to heal was killing everyone except one of the weaker enemies, then you constantly taunt them with Star of Dinetia for like 15 minutes before relieving them of their annoyance so your score for time would be horrible

[@Lalapopsy]

You can also heal with Star of Dineta.

[@FairchildV]

Beating it isn’t the problem. They just take soooo much health with one hit lol

[@handbanana4899]

The lock-on and the camera are legit the hardest bosses in the game. Early on I died 14 times before getting to the next verse…trying to catch a crow atop some cliffs and buildings.

[@kaidokp]

For me: ●ACCESSORIES: Nicleus of Talos, Conqueror's Reins ●DEMONS: Devil Rodin Have Rodin do all the work for you while you dodge when necessary. Easily get you to verse 9. Verse 5 (the one with invisble enemies), you'd have to change your accessories to make things lesss painful. Other than that, good luck!

[@lapushka9388]

You can just use baal's poison rain for Verse 5. Kills the plant that makes the things invisible.

[@damnyou123]

There is an easier way to do this. Summon the tower to use the bell, immediately use pkkk with Rodin weapon, on the second hit of the combo, press dpad to switch from clock tower to another demon then back to clock tower and use the bell again. This allows to gain magic during the tower witch time, effectively making an infinite WT loop combo.

[@Dengojin]

Thanks for the tip, will keep it in mind!

[@adam622500]

Faster you use Zl and Zr to quick retreat the tower

[@pugdragon]

Holy crap I literally just beat witch trial 3 with this infinite wt trick!

[@nesaaliyah4821]

I wonder if the new update changed this 💔

[@pdeebarma6576]

Gomorrah breaks Golem's armor every time it bites him "R" in witch time

[@Ernireg3]

I almost had the same setup. Baal, Clocktower and Train. I had the accessory that didn't allow demons to lose control and the one that made their attacks more powerful. I used Labolas and the umbran doors for fighting. My strategy was to overwhelm the enemies with the train as I shot them with the umbran doors for massage damage. I used baal for the annoying tower enemy that makes the others invisible. The umbran clocktower and baal combination for quicker enemies. I rang the bells for witchtime and immediately switches to baal to have her sing.

[@mastermewtwo5503]

My strategy: Use the Kraken (gotten from Phenomenal Remnant 14, unlocked after beating the game) for most battles. Inch forward on the platform the fights happen, then Black Pearl Rain (Circle-Y) as soon as most waves start spawning. Start a quick 4-hit combo (my favorite was Simoon. If you do the PPKP combo, you can do Kraken's input as Bayo does the final attack if you're fast to save a little time), then use the Wink Slave finisher. Kraken will now be using a much more powerful Black Pearl Rain that kills most things near-instantly, and you can control it by holding ZR and inputting a direction if needed. I'll dub this Black Pearl Wink as I mention it. This is especially effective against the large enemies that are likely to get hit. You can also start this glitch after entering Witch Time (Bracelet of Time recommended). If you can't kill with Black Pearl Wink, you can use Masquerade Rage attacks as an easy burst option. If you do get hit, use Devil Rodin's dance (His R command) after a battle. This can heal you once you upgrade it, and you can cancel by swapping demons as the dance ends to have better magic efficiency. Verse 7 (VS B5 Rosa and Bayonetta, French Thieves): They're both small and, as they're Umbra Witches, able to dodge demon attacks. You can use Phantasmaranae's explosion during Witch Time for high burst damage, but for the most part you can just fight them normally if you pay attention. Bayonetta wields Abracadabra which is a ranged weapon, and Rosa uses Tartarus where she's either using it defensively or slashing as a marionette. Verse 10 (VS Dark Adam and Eve): Use Black Pearl Wink on Adam during Witch Time, otherwise he can dodge. Eve is too small for a very reliable Kraken Rain cheese, but she only has 2 health bars and doesn't do very much damage compared to prior battles. Enter Witch Time on her attacks and beat her legit. As with the normal Chapter 14 fight, her Cassiopeia weapon is a swinging anchor with decent range, but somewhat slow (at least when I tried the actual weapon). Watch for her Masquerade attacks as well.

[@mastermewtwo5503]

Probably the hardest verse is Cirrostratus and Cirrocumulus (who are huge, nimble, and with huge questionable hitboxes), then against Singularity Balance and Definition (who is the "final boss" in the story). However, you can just find a Witch Time and obliterate.

[@Freddy-ff5pq]

Is it a glitch

[@mastermewtwo5503]

@@Freddy-ff5pq I am quite confident the Black Pearl Wink (as I'll dub it) is a glitch. This was used to beat Phenomenal Remnant 14 in 23 seconds by a few people (including myself).

[@mateonoesfeo6857]

Wow I finally did it! That clock tower WT was a game changer

[@kl6782]

You can gain health by pressing R with the Rodin demon out in-between rounds. If you have the Rodin weapon.

[@JoshxButcher]

Thank you kindly for this guide it helped me a lot but i found it better to beat Dark Eve in Verse 10 than to fight the Luka wolf thing.. this took me 3 days to beart but i got my platinum trophy so i am happy

[@pigglywiggly2474]

thanks for the guide you're a lifesaver

[@greenbean501]

I found Michtlantecuhtli pretty useful for my attempts. It's lasers can stun lock the large enemies in verses 1 and 3 and switching formations allows you to see the enemies in Verse 5

[@mastermewtwo5503]

One note on Verse 2 against Golem: Its bird (I think) form has an attack where it'll send yellow sound/shock waves (similar to Morpho Knight from Kirby if you know it). Once it does this, wait about a second before pressing dodge since apparently the hitbox comes out a decent bit after the animation starts.

[@TragoudistrosMPH]

2:12 lol, this game inspires such stylishly cheesey fun moments 😁

[@transudatebeau]

nobody talks about how phanta can literally nuke all the low hp enemies at once

[@bogymanthedark]

Or demon train that can summon friendly demons that trash on small enemies and easily stun the big ones.

[@sirfluffybottom113]

Oh I used the kraken ink jets (when he goes in the air and uses them as jet packs lol) then used a quick combo to use him as a finisher and it literally destroyed them >:D!

[@mateonoesfeo6857]

Okay how do the spinning clock tower move at 16:02? The drill looking thing

[@TeQxktcg]

lol.. I didn't realise this is how the bell works. I did it with Colour my World and Alruna paired with Madama, Alraune and Baal; basically how I did everything my first play through. I was actually hoping to find some interesting demon interactions with all the bosses, anyone have some suggestions? Maybe an interesting video topic?

[@vecnahenrycreel1300]

I keep using only umbran armoe but cannot get pass throght 8th

[@tiddy7311]

I personally use baal, if you start her singing before the match starts it makes it easier. It also kills most of the enemies with one shot

[@deeddles1]

Most of them seem to be doable by just spamming dodge as Jeanne and getting Baal's rain up, then swapping to Rodin/Clock Tower Mech for heavy damage during armor reduction

[@dylancretsinger3026]

this videos really old but who can I sub for rodin? i'm still working on unlocking him

[@kriblar98]

Id like to suggest Miclantecutli (Bat demon) for verse 1 and 6, spamming his lazers will interrupt the enemies every time and in the invisible tower one ramming into the homunculi dropped when you dislodge a tower segment will give you instant torture attacks

[@kriblar98]

Also I’m aiming this at other ppl not the op who clearly dosnt need the tip lol

[@jhonathanparra3493]

En la mayor parte del Witch Trial use a mictlantecuhtli en la formacion X con los lasers que dispara, generan mucho daño cuando son Jefes grades como Cumulonimbus y Valiance; para los Jefes de menor tamaño como Singularity use a Alrune con las flores infernales y de ahi spamear Tiempo Brujo jajaja (Aun no logro vencer a Rodin 😔)

[@charleswiltshire21]

I FINALLY BBEN ABLE TO MOVE TO VERSE 8, HERE'S HOW: VERSE 1: LABOLAS, VERSE 2: GAMMORAH BITE WHEN WITCH TIME, THEN HIT CORE WITH G-PILLAR(OR RODIN IF YOU HAVE HIS WEAPON), VERSE 3: LABOLAS AGAIN, VERSE 4: BEAT ANGEL WITH LABOLAS, AND HOMUNCULY WITH GAMMORAH BITE WHEN WITH TIME, VERSE 5: BAAL RAIN, VERSE 6: SAVE THAT ATTACK ON R+L ON THJS FIGHT, BETTER USE G-PILLAR OR RODIN AGAIN, THEN SPIDER, THEN SPAM GAMMORAH ROUND TAIL ATTACK, OR BACK-FORWARD KICK ATTACK, SINCE HE ALMOST NOT STAGGER, ITS A GOOD CHOICE, AND BETTER DEAL FIRST WITH LONG HEADED DOOD WITH 5 CHUNK OF HEALTH, AND THEN BEAT BOAR OR WHOATEVER HE IS,VERSE 7: FIRST USE WITH TOWER SLOW TIME, THEM LABOLAS AGAIN, SAME TO VERSE 8, STILL DIDNT BEAT VERSE 9, SO NEXT IS UP TO YOU, MAYBE UPDATE LATER. HOPE IT HELPS SOMEONE, BECAUSE HONSTLY IT WAS PAIN IN THE BATT TO DEAL WITH THEM, TRYED IT ABOUT 500 TIMES BEFORE I FIGURE THIS ALL.

[@FagatronUchiha]

Any substitutes to Rodin?

[@pokemok1234790]

Thankyou❤❤❤❤❤

[@antonioaguero9584]

Literally its took me 40 tries to even get to verse 6

[@FurryBoykissser]

I mainly just used clock and wink slave and then baal on verse 5 and i beat 4th try and it was platinum award and i used abracadabra

[@kl6782]

I’ve Pure Platinum’d every difficulty of Bayonetta 1&2 but I can’t get passed Verse 4 of this. Witch time clock tower or not. As soon as it runs out I die.

[@Xylon_Games]

Git gud. But seriously, the angel gets knocked back easily and seems to focus demons, so make sure you always put a demon on him. Then you can focus on the homun boss. (Did you know you can buffer attacks on the demon summons and then do a few attacks/move with bayo in between?)

[@Alex95rlz]

Put demons on Valor to keep him on hitstun, all while being far away from the giant homunculi, but keep the camera in a position that allows you to see what the homunculi is doing. It will only do long range attacks, so if you are paying attention, you can easily dodge and get a few witch times while bullying Valor. Once Valor is dead, 1 on 1 the homunculi.

[@victorsotomayor7488]

Just beat this trial. Had Baal, Urbran Clock tower and Rodin for demons, rodin weapon, and have Nucleus of talso, hymn of durga and conqueror's reins in your items stash. Used Baal to rain poison rain in verses 1, 3-8, have rodin fight golem in verse 2, and have rodin fight on his own in verses 9 and 10. Itemwise, have HOD and CR equipped during when you use Baal's poison rain, and switch to HOD for NOT for verse 9 when you fight singularity B and D, and verse 10 for Dark Adam and Eve. If damage is dealt during any stage, dance with Rodin to heal. Verse 4, Use poison rain twice to finish Valiance and Cumulonimbus at once. Verse 1, poison from Baal, torture attack and Rodin to finish Murus as Accolades will be out due to Baal. Verse 5, poison from Baal and Rodin to finish Pannus and Duplicatus. Verse 6, poison from Baal, torture attack on Volutus, and finish with Rodin, Volutus first as is weaker, then Cirrostratus. Verses 3, 7 and 8, Poison from Baal will clear everyone out at once.

[@victorsotomayor7488]

Continual Dodges will refuel magic meter during 9 and 10, and save masquerade for 10 to deal as much damage as possible before using Rodin.

[@maddinzf7967]

Cool setup and all but you still gotta learn enemy patterns. Thats key here. Some of those attacks still feel kinda off to me after so many hours of playing. For example the hitboxes for the boar enemies. And I believe this is more important in the witch trials than the setup itself but yeah clocktowers witchtime certainly helps a lot.

[@Dengojin]

For sure! Its the point of Witch Trials

[@Emperorwolf999]

synchronised soul? do you mean masquerade rage?

[@Dengojin]

Yes Synchronized Soul is when you press both sticks to activate the ultimate weapon attack

[@Realisphrase]

btw verse 10 you said kill dark eve first but I think you meant dark adam because eve is the bayonetta with kraken weapon

mine is a bit different. Pure Platinum'd them all except verse 5 and 9 caught me off guard. I havent beaten it yet cause i didnt know what to do on 9. I was tryna not use the Rodin as it is kinda OP. Ive been using Magician Bayo, i just switch to Rodin for the L3 R3 attack. Very nice indeed

[@Dengojin]

I used Abracadabra before I unlocked Rodin it's a sick weapon! as for Verse 5 I recommend using Baal and combo the hidden enemies for more combo points for the pure plat. Hope that helps, have a good day brother

Just checked your channel and you use the clock a lot, does this mean other people don't get to use it?
