The Successor

NG Nero / Dante Mission 19

Target LRT - sub 3:20

For the final two missions, we are switching back to Nero. Mission 19 will have you revisit several bosses throughout the playthrough via a boss rush. Some bosses are more consistent, like Berial, Echidna and some less consistent, like Bael & Dagon.

Before you start, buy Maximum Bet and Showdown. You may also buy Max-Act. The Maximum Bet is required for a consistent cycle on Berial and does great damage on Bael & Dagon, whereas Showdown is excellent for Berial and Echidna. Purchase 1 Holy Water from the Items shop as well.

Be sure to grab most boss red orbs as you'll need a Holy Water and a Devil Star (23500) for Mission 20.

Boss Rush

Correct dice cycle: → 4-6-4-4-6 ←

Angelo Squad
  • Dice Number 4.
  • Upon entering the room, run straight to the dice and Snatch it when you see the number 4 on top.
  • After entering the arena, wait for the enemies to spawn fully and use a Holy Water.
  • Dice Number 6.
  • Once spawned in, walk next to the dice and wait for the number 6. Hit the dice with your sword.
  • Make sure to exceed your sword while waiting and grab the white orb in the right corner.
  • Once the Berial fight starts, immediately DT and perform 2 Maximum Bets to remove the fire shield from Berial. You can also get a Showdown right after the Maximum Bet if you're quick about it. Make sure to Aerial Buster Berial before he drops on the ground. After that, just do CS3 and EX-Attacks.
  • Once Berial is defeated, it's very important to Taunt Cancel using Exceed to get DT. You can get 2 Taunt Cancels here.
  • Dice Number 4.
  • Immediately Snatch the dice after gaining control of Nero. You will get a 4 right away.
  • Make sure to exceed your sword while waiting.
  • The Eat pattern - Most common pattern. You should CS3 before getting eaten, wait till the CS3 explosion happens and DT right away. Come down with Aerial Combos and do a Maximum Bet and a CS3.
  • The Jump pattern - Semi common pattern. Shoot your CS3, jump dodge the landing of Bael & Dagon and DT right away. Keep doing Aerial Combos till he is stunned and do a Maximum Bet and a CS3.
  • Dice Number 4.
  • Immediately Snatch the dice after gaining control of Nero. You will get a 4 right away.
  • Make sure to exceed your sword while waiting and grab the white orb in the right corner.
  • If you want to consistently prevent Echidna from flying away, do EX3-Calibur to CS3. This is consistent but not as high damage. The other option would be to wait a bit, CS3 and EX3-Calibur for some aerial combos.
  • You want to DT a little bit early and double jump as quickly as possible on Echidna as she starts planting the seeds. Here you have two options, you may either go for 2 Showdowns or do Combo A into a Buster.
  • Once Echidna is defeated, perform Taunt Cancels using Exceed on the Chimera Seed to get DT. You can get 2 Taunt Cancels and a Buster here.
  • Dice Number 6.
  • Once spawned in, walk next to the dice and wait for the number 6. Hit the dice with your sword.
  • Make sure to exceed your sword while waiting.
  • Use CS3 and EX-Calibur whenever possible on Agnus and avoid using Roulette Spin. Using DT and grabbing a Basilisk with Buster is a great way to deal big damage to Agnus. DT efficiency will mainly improve your time with this boss.
