--MAIN OBJECTIVE: END THE AMBITIONS OF HIS HOLINESS
Exit Agnus' room and go back to the Gauntlet. Stock up on stuff from
the Divinity statue if you need to and enter the elevator to encounter
a new enemy!
--NEW ENEMY: FAUST
Faust is bigger version of the Mephisto and has some painful scissor
swipes. Faust is usually accompanied by two Mephistos but defeating him
is still the same. Use mid-air Busters to punch him in the face. Keep
punching him until he reveals his true form and falls to the ground.
Wail away with hard combos until they all perish.
--OBJECTIVE: EXIT THE BUILDING
As soon as that's done, the elevator will descend to the second floor.
Use the Chrono Slicer and maneuver around the lasers to the next
elevator. Activate the blue mechanism to reveal the exit. Use the
Chrono Slicer to freeze the lasers and then jump down the newly
revealed exit to the bottom of the Gauntlet. Exit out to the next area.
++AREA: KEY CHAMBER
Bianco and his boys make ANOTHER surprise ambush. Use the Chrono Slicer
to slow down time and use it to defeat Bianco (or just escape).
++AREA: GRAND HALL
Exit out of the Grand Hall to the newly revealed bridge. Cross the
bridge and enter the next building.
++AREA: SECURITY CORRIDOR
--OBJECTIVE: FIND THE SECRET MISSION
You got a ton of lasers that are moving and are at a set pattern. It's
almost similar to the laser puzzle from Resident Evil 4. Use the Chrono
Slicer and maneuver your way past the lasers. Jump over the ones that
are low and run under the ones that are high. Simple, right?
When you make it to the other side, the Rusalka Corpse will start
buzzing. Approach the wall near the Chrono Slicer to find a Secret
Mission door.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+++ SECRET MISSION 06: VERMIFUGE +++
For this mission, Nero has to eliminate all the Chimera before they
morph with the Scarecrows. Easy peasy Japanesey, right?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After all the hijinks, exit the Security Corridor to the next area.
Inside this area is a giant whirling set of blades. Simply jump down to
the bottom (don't jump near the blades) to encounter Faust and his
crew. Eliminate Faust and the boys to reveal another Chrono Slicer.
Activate the Slicer to slow down the blades. From there, jump on top
from blade to blade. Ignore the blade on the very top and then jump
towards the next doorway before the Chrono Slicer deactivates. It will
take a few tries, so DO IT!
++AREA: EXPERIMENT DISPOSAL
A trio of White Knights will appear here, so start busting them open!
The tight corridor is a great place to trap them, so lure them in and
wreck their asses. Once you're hot in the anchovy, be sure to bust up
the Red Orb Statue in the corner. Now go all the way to the back and
approach the purple pedestal to enter the next area.
++AREA: MEETING ROOM
A duo of Angelo Biancos will appear for an ambush, so be ready! Unlike
the White Knights, Bianco uses a sword which can be more painful than a
joust. As usual, attack them from behind and use the mid-air Buster to
shorten the battle. Once that's done, enter the next corridor.
--OBJECTIVE: FIND THE SECRET MISSION
Across from the Divinity Statue is a doorway to a Secret Mission.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+++ SECRET MISSION 07: FREE RUNNING +++
This mission is EXACTLY the same as the Disappearing Floor Puzzle from
Mission 8. Nero has to quickly work his way past disappearing floor
tiles while evading (or eliminating) a trio of Mephistos. Too easy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When you're done drinking from the fuzzy cup, approach the Divinity
Statue and stock up on stuff because the next boss battle might be the
toughest you'll face yet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+++ BOSS BATTLE: DANTE - PART TWO +++

One thing you need to remember before facing off against Dante: BE
DEFENSIVE! Dante is also just as defensive and can evade all of Nero's
attacks with no problem. Not only that, but Dante can counter attack at
Nero immediately. Dante is equipped with all four of his styles
(Swordmaster, Trickster, Royal Guard, and Gunslinger) and he isn't
afraid to kick your ass with them either. You'll know if Dante is
switching styles when he says the name out loud ("Swordmaster!").
As I mentioned above, BE DEFENSIVE! If you spend most of the battle
trying to do a Streak or High Roller on Dante, be prepared to meet a
Stinger in the face. Also, avoid using the Buster from up close because
he'll just smack you. The Blue Rose does nothing for this battle and
activating the Yamato Devil Trigger is a waste of time.
So how do you defeat the almighty Dante then? Read carefully as I
explain. Out of Nero's list of attacks, the only one that will cause
major damage to Dante is the mid-air Buster. When the battle begins,
press the R1 Button to lock-on to Dante and then walk BACKWARDS. You
want Dante to walk up to you so that he can initiate a combo.
When Dante gets close, he'll start a combo (it doesn't matter which
style he's using). Immediately jump back while still locked-on to him
and use the Grim Grip to grab Dante while he's performing his attack.
As soon as you grab Dante, perform a short mid-air combo and then a
Buster attack to knock him down. Repeat this tactic as much as you can
to whittle Dante's health faster.
The strategy I mentioned above is the one I found to be the most
effective. It doesn't require you to waste ANY Vital Stars or use the
Devil Trigger. I will have a video link for it here on the next update!
