How to S rank the hardest mission in Devil May Cry 5 (No Cheesing)

[@SomeAustrianGuy_]

"Skip this cutscene because this is your 9373837 try" Gotta say, *pretty fucking accurate.*

[@ronieldcdomingo5460]

It's good that mission 18's boss wasn't included in BP. Because it might be challenging and time taking.

[@mickeybat5816]

Ngl, one thing I didn't like about dmc5 is how unfun some of the bosses were to fight, I mean in all honesty there aren't many bosses in the game that are enjoyable only about 4 maybe 5 if I include cerberus. The game isn't a shit show because of this fact, mainly because you can easily go back to BP and fight those guys again. Just realized that it wasn't fun getting good at these bosses because some of them are only able to be fought by one character viable.

[@shane380]

Well, making a boss that is compatible to fight with all the 4 characters is a challenge, but yeah i liked the variety of bosses in dmc3 more.

[@aymenal-therwi135]

@@shane380 dmc3 had a few shit bosses in it i liked the bosses fight in 5 more

[@shane380]

@@aymenal-therwi135 Well shit is an exageration, what i meant is that every boss had a certain pattern to fightin 3, where as in 5 you can just have great reflexes to relentlessly attack the boss and win. Not that i hate any boss in either games but it seemed a bit plain in 5. But i see what u mean.

[@jethrobreek8340]

The only bad bosses are the Qliphoth Roots and Niddhog. Maybe Gilgamesh but he was more like a mini-level

[@ngocanhhoang2620]

I was dreading doing this in HaH, then I remember I've not even done m8 yet

[@neromain3504]

Damn thanks so much bro it’s nightmare that I always struggled with on this mission I never knew about their wake up timings and the fact nightmare will try and heal the pets this is so helpful

[@Sunny-vs2kq]

Ah yes.. the hardest boss of em all, the peripheral disconnect 😭😭

[@Kaien-itis]

This mission i got annhialated by the same "PETS" i made fun of earlier

[@JuliusCaesar103]

By far, the hardest mission to S rank in the game without cheese. You make this look effortless and very relatable that you also get hit, makes me think I can learn something from you

[@AS-Stardust]

I want to get at least A rank on this currently playing Son of Sparda. I have a hard time styling on Griffon

[@JuliusCaesar103]

@@AS-Stardust keep at it

[@AS-Stardust]

@@JuliusCaesar103 yeah I do like that this mission is forcing me to learn how to style switch efficiently. I'm more used to vanilla DMC3 so I end up maining 1 style often in DMC5 but I'm getting the hang of it now.

[@JuliusCaesar103]

@@AS-Stardust this is the exact mission that made me learn how to do that also lmao. Try going for the platinum imo, getting S ranks on DMD is a pretty good feeling

[@thatguy9211]

This mission and mission 10 are such a pain in the ass to S-rank

[@gideonwhite7476]

dont forget mission 8 lol

[@hikoshik7441]

Every mission with fury is very hard.

[@Shrapnel-qy4xi]

@@hikoshik7441 Mission 16 ain’t too hard though

[@hikoshik7441]

@@Shrapnel-qy4xi Nope, if you play in DMD. Cerberus boss make M16 very annoying.

[@Shrapnel-qy4xi]

@@hikoshik7441 Cerberus boss is hella easy, just practice Royal Guard, and use the SSS rank for quadruple s combos.

[@vadandrumist1670]

You gotta feel bad for Virgil when he's shown-up by his own minions.

[@shima8321]

An additional tip is that enemies won’t attack if they’re off screen, so you can just keep Griffon off your field of vision to make it easier. It’s cheesy, but not as much as using Faust or smth else imo

[@howtoturninhomeworkonyoutu1241]

7:34 ty for the tip! I've been playing for a hundred hours but still have a problem of holding dt button.

[@slkgfj]

Good to know it is not just my system that stutters like mad when my controller disconnects; I have never seen a game handle controller/keyboard detection as bad as DMC5 ever or since.

[@shadyplaysgoodgames]

Never had a problem with my keyboard

[@monimoni-v6u]

3:23 my bro slammed so hard, his controller got disconnected

[@beesechurger2540]

I haven’t even fought Griffon, Shadow, and Nightmare yet. But I might use some of these strats when I get there.

[@Tekkatonic]

You think you could make a video on v like how to use him, I always find any fights with him hard compared to using Nero or Dante

[@Geneius2509]

Yeah playing as V is fucked in DMD. Practice obviously would make it better but he is not as fun to practice as well I reckon

[@horuisu5693]

With V your best friend is the side dodge, the invincibility frames on that move are insane

[@oniluvsdmc7871]

I GOT YOU!

[@ianpung1774]

I recommend finishing off enemies in the air because you're less vulnerable that way. V's cane can parry enemies like Fury and Death scissors. You can also use air taunt to stall your air momentum for a bit.

[@splungerino]

Use the 360 came move, it’s good for landing after finishing a demon.

[@jotheorangeman6426]

Thanks for the tutorial I don't get to play 5 often so I played M18 on SOS for the first time and got my ass handed to me

[@DeathDiety365]

Hey question, if you could make any other mission the hardest instead of this one, which would it be?

[@blueferal8626]

Whole game

[@SSSmokeStyle]

8 I think

[@oniluvsdmc7871]

Anything with Urizen so mainly M08 (nero) and M10 (dante)

[@vergil7886]

Nero vs urizen(with those annoying tentacles) V vs Nidhoggh Dante vs urizen!!!mission 17 just when he start to jump :)

[@jerec1267]

My toughest challenges for DMD S rank were 8 (3 tries), 10 (4 tries) and 12 (3 tries) This one though took 10, this is far and away the toughest mission to get an S rank on. Not even completing it is much harder than the rest of the game, though it is a challenging boss, its just that it hates giving you style points.

[@dantefromdevilmaycry9857]

*MORE POWER*

[@professortree9387]

I think we need skill first before we can do any of this

[@JayceCH.]

Yea, if people had skill, they wouldnt have too much trouble S ranking this.

[@worldgaming1996]

I subbed. Because your devil may cry gameplay is legendary

[@oniluvsdmc7871]

Hey, man, nice video! When I get to M18 on DMD I'll try your advice and I might even upload the video. I've been commenting about M18 ever since I even had my old name tag here on KZbin! Thanks!

[@Alexander_Sannikov]

i guess for the author the hardest part is the micro usb struggle. for me the hardest part is the "git good" part.

[@deadair666]

You are a God

[@SirChikenVII]

Holy crap. Sure wish I had these tips when I S ranked the mission myself. But since I already did, I NEVER HAVE TO PLAY IT AGAIN woot woot!

[@notproductiveproductions3504]

This game even has a pause cancel

[@kokomello2858]

I expected more flying Dante from this video

[@Abood.K-17]

It was indeed my 92309th time Lmao! I almost skipped bosses too haha

[@xseroxarrow4471]

thought something on my pc disconected lol

[@worldgaming1996]

Those attacks.

[@jrjoy527]

6460 is my highest rank in this mission in dmd

[@Arcana_zero_studios]

I hate how ALL of V's pets get super armor. Sure you can flinch them with heavey enough attacks but never launch them into a juggable state. Gryphon and Shadow have next to no start up so you need to keep distance from Shadow and stay mobile or keep the camera off of him to prevent Gryphon from swooping in with some bs while you're charging or attacking a stalemated Shadow. Then there's Nightmare. I just SDT and shoot the Luce until the meter is nearly empty then I square + triangle and nuke 'em. I've stopped caring if I had quad S I just do it to start off with a high Style rank and get all of down as much as possible. I even save regular DT just to recharge SDT and try for another round of Luce shots later on.

[@bruhder5854]

9:17 Time for a new controller.

[@ironic_ghost62]

This man is underrated, also how can I add the back + style button = trick down mod on console? (ps4)

[@achair7958]

I love DMC5 so much but the scoring is super wack

[@justchicknugget]

I beat all DMD bosses with 1 attempt on them even on Vergil but these guys...

[@squidwardwithagun6015]

In simpler term.......be good at the game

[@SamsungSyncMaster940]

Have you seen Koudai T. Videos??

[@Nico-the-Nacho]

This will be very useful once I come back around to this mission. I swear, this, plus missions 10 and 8 are some of the Mist bullshit missions in this game to S rank. All the rest are a walk in the park for me, with Vergil of course giving me a little trouble, but 8, 10, and 18. Fuck, man. I've been looking for any edge I can.

[@kahtanalobaidi1550]

How do you cheese this mission

[@blairm_1621]

So uhh I got a question a honest question did I break something or am I just bad at the game cause I can't get Dante's charge shot with ebony and Ivory to work I've been at it for hours and nothing it'll charge up and then it'll just shoot a bullet so I don't know if my games bugged or what

[@SSSmokeStyle]

Charged shot isn't too special tbh. If you're in gunslinger it charges automatically without having to hold the button. Don't expect a big single shot like Nero's, just a slightly stronger version of regular shot

[@blairm_1621]

@@SSSmokeStyle thanks for the response

[@ylxew]

What is the song name???

[@bruhder5854]

Lmao 3:23

[@bruhder5854]

Took damage at 1:55. Wouldn't no dmg net a higher score?

[@Geneius2509]

Look mate your only suggesting the hardest thing to do on this mission haha

[@Geneius2509]

Like think about this, you have to no damage for 9- 10 min that includes 4 battles with the hardest one been all 3 bosses at the SAME time

[@TheBenchLord]

The game doesn't care if you get hit. It cares if you get staggered

[@ABritishCigarette]

7:31 a useful thing to learn

[@MarceloHenrique-vg6hm]

No damage?

[@lflintx]

You actually don't need any of those fancy strats to get the S rank really. If you manage to get a SSS in all the fights (and you don't even need to maintain it for too long), kill all the red orb bugs and finish the mission as fast as you can without taking damage, you will get the S rank. Simple and clean. You can even use Faust for a boost to red orbs if you having trouble reaching the mark.

[@GamerSinceroXD]

Using cerberus to get consecutive parry in royal guard is some kind of bug?

[@ivanshulika5359]

Took damage - restart the run. In your case - around 1:50

[@Geneius2509]

If your NOT going for no damage, it really doesn't matter the amount of damage you take (unlike dmc 1& 3) as long as you dont die

[@leoncoben6983]

Yeah I just avoided being hit the entire mission. The multiplier for No Damage was a lot easier than...being good at the game. XD

[@DoritoGOD2811]

>no cheese >lemme cheat my SDT back in 😐

[@speeddemonji9547]

Wait, without cheesing and no-hitting is possible????

[@the_solo_ghost_]

Basically it's just being good at the game and know how to use the weapons.

[@Fedor_Kisliakov]

This mission was a bitch to S-rank, along with mission 10. Fucking style points system is just weird in this game.

How to tranform into sdt for a second

[@noone8253]

The quadruple s skill, when in triple s rank after transforming into sdt press the dt button again before sdt bar starts depleting

[@ImDaRealBoi]

To add on, you have about four seconds or a little over enough time to perform combo A with sdt before it begins draining

how the hell is that even hard 💀
