====== NG Nero / Dante Mission 5 ====== M5 Skip Target LRT - sub 0:50 Normal M5 Target LRT - sub 2:05 If you've no damaged everything up to this point, you should be set Proud Soul {{dmc4:proudsoul.png?nolink&25}} wise, no matter if you're doing [[dmc4:skips:m5_full_skips|M5 Skip]] or not. Here's what to look out for:\\ * **M1-M4 No Damage** - This is the optimal route. You should be able to buy every ability from the shop apart from Snatch 2. * **Took damage in 1 or 2 Missions** - Be prepared to skip purchases and sell abilities. Skip purchasing Calibur since it's not as important yet and if you're performing the [[dmc4:skips:m5_full_skips|M5 Skip]], you may sell Charge Shot 3 for this mission. Before you start, buy Roulette Spin, Split, Air Hike and then Calibur if possible from the shop. The difference with shop for [[dmc4:skips:m5_full_skips|M5 Skip]] is that you also need to buy Exceed 2 for the skip. You should aim to no damage **Mission 5**, but this mission rewards the least amount of Proud Souls {{dmc4:proudsoul.png?nolink&25}} in the run, especially if you are doing [[dmc4:skips:m5_full_skips|M5 Skip]]. ===== Mission 5 Skip ===== * There are no mandatory fights when performing [[dmc4:skips:m5_full_skips|M5 Skip]]. After starting the mission, turn around and go back to the boss arena. * The abilities that are required to successfully pull off this skip: Roulette Spin, Exceed 2, Split and Air Hike. * After spawning in the [[dmc4:enemy#Frost|Frosts]], once you're getting prepared to perform the skip, do these inputs: Buster → Jump for a Split (important exceed AFTER splitting) → Attack * A new skip setup was [[youtube>embed/R49KCVk6fmQ?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|recently discovered by Stuby]]. This removes the requirement for Split and saves roughly 3 seconds. * Right when the [[dmc4:enemy#Frost|Frost]] is about to land, do these inputs: Do a Non-Exceed Attack and THEN Exceed the attack and the next attack will get you out of bounds * The Holy Water skipped here will be grabbed later in [[dmc4:chapters:ng_nero_dante:m15|Mission 15]]. ===== Mission 5 Normal ===== * No abilities are required for normal **Mission 5**, but Roulette Spin, Split and Air Hike are recommended for faster cycles. * Getting familiar with [[youtube>embed/_j4hzBRLLZM?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Snatch Cancelling]] will help you clear [[dmc4:enemy#Mephisto|Mephistos]] cloaks faster. * For the Torture Chamber Gyro, the fastest way to get it to the other side is to Buster → Exceeded Aerial Slash. * Be sure to grab the Holy Water with the [[youtube>embed/X0vWlpVgAyM?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|inertia CS setup.]] * Sometimes you can get both [[dmc4:enemy#Mephisto|Mephistos]] cloaks gone in one CS3. Inconsistent. * You don't need to attack the chandelier to start the cutscene. You can interact with it too. ===== Fight Cycles ===== > **Soldier's Graveyard** * [[youtube>embed/LhGYN_NLrEE?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Standard Cycle]] > **Spiral Well** * [[youtube>embed/3aMEnZGrORg?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Standard Cycle]] > **Torture Chamber** * [[youtube>embed/08zHUeILsSg?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Standard Cycle]] ===== Video References ===== * [[youtube>embed/5zMapdJ6HRI?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Mission 5 New Skip Setup]] * [[youtube>embed/V3jimrw3ge0?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Mission 5 Split Skip Community Gold]] * [[youtube>embed/en0Df2Job1g?autoplay=0&wmode=transparent&start=0|Mission 5 Normal Community Gold]] \\
