Devil May Cry 4

Devil May Cry 4 Walkthrough - 05 - Trisagion

Do the usual power up thing I've mentioned in past mission start points. You now probably have a good feel for Nero, so start branching out and doing what you like, but keep in mind in the next mission (well two technically) you'll gain more abilities to buy and another item that costs tons of red orbs. Don't forget, you can replay past missions for orbs and proud souls. The better you do in the mission, the better the payoff in proud souls at the end!

Your main goal now is to get through this graveyard. You meet some new demons here called the Mephisto. Use your Snatch arm on them to lower the cloak, then combo the body. It is possible to destroy the body before it can heal, but they do like to heal quick sometimes, other times it takes a while. Keep moving. They dive bomb from any direction, shoot a laser finger at you, and use their tails to slash. Taunting them while down works well on style points. They recover with an upward claw attack, so watch that. Also, a direct Buster attack destroys the cape immediately.

Keep in mind EVERYTHING can be destroyed here. The top of the fountain, the graves, the statues, the ice in the fountain itself. Get on top of the fountain by destroying the statue and look over at the awning near where you came from. It is possible to EX charge up full, charge up an EX Streak, shoot off the edge, use the Roulette move in the air, and finish with a double jump, landing on the awning topside. On one end is a large red orb, on the other is a more important Gold orb! The jump over to it is tricky and it's frustrating if you fall, take it easy. Your life bar will probably block your jump, so you kind of have to feel it out.

After you conquer all that you will probably find a hard Secret Mission under and back of the steps. You can't physically do it yet unless you have Table Hopper 2 and lots of taunts ready, I'd come back when you gain the shield skill in Mission 9. See my blue orb fragment section at the bottom of this walkthrough for much, much more detail.

Head up the steps and into Sanctus' bedroom. There is yet another secret mission here behind the mirror, again I direct you to the end of the walkthrough section. Time to fight some more knights. These Biancos are the same as before, so just use charge shot 1 when they fly, snatch to get behind them quick, high time and streak to knock them off balance, hit the shield and taunt some for rank up, and use Buster on their backs or unshielded bodies if you destroy the shield. Furniture here holds orbs. Make up for those weak Mephistos outside by getting an A or S rank against the trio of knights! Then use the door.

Activate the blue wall switch and then smack the gyro blade to activate it, then hit it with the sword some, and sent it flying across. Don't worry, it won't fall off. Thank you for that Capcom! Nero leaps on down into the dungeon area. Note all the orbs you miss on the way down. Kill the pair of Mephistos, and watch out for them hiding within the walls and floor to spring on you. Go for a B combo here if possible. Now grab the cool looking Wing Talisman. If you have air hike this is a bit easier. Use the red pads to bounce up and grab the orbs. Note one orb is hidden UNDER a pad. Also, by landing on other small floors you can explore some jail cells for health orbs and eventually find a red orb statue. Same place, go to the head of the statue poking out with a white glowing ball in it's mouth, and touch the underside for a Holy Water! It's odd, your arm doesn't alert you to this.

Now keep going up. Kill every scarecrow and go for the highest style you can muster! S is possible, I even got SS before here. I like to rush through the group to their backs and then start the killing. On DH they have just enough health to get some good style going. On Human they die pretty fast though. While you do this Mephistos appear in a pair. Try to kill off all the scarecrows in a "safe" corner and then go to work on the Mephistos. Do a direct Buster and they break right out of their capes! Go for the style!

In the hall, try to lead individual Frosts into corners and combo them. A rank is not hard to get if you can corner them and end it fast. There are three to kill. Back in the Grand Hall, use the Pad here and get to the chandiler. Slash it and watch the scene. Go into the new hole you made.

Go down the steps (get the Vital Star S with Snatch) and go all the way down this hall.
