    With Devil May Cry 5 releasing March 8th, what better time to dive into the Devil May Cry series and rank the best Devil May Cry bosses. We'll be ranking the bosses in Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2, Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, Devil May Cry 4, DmC: Devil May Cry, and finally Devil May Cry 5.
    This 18-year running franchise holds up suprisingly well for a first time player in 2019. Today's video is on the best and worst Devil May Cry 3 bosses, including Lady, Arkham, Vergil, Doppelganger, Nevan, Gigapede, Agni and Rudra, and Beowulf. I hope you enjoy - and if you do be sure to subscribe to stay up to date on all the latest content from the channel!

      Igni and Rudra just slaughters mostly everyone to the point Nevan can be broken down quite easily.

    "Arkham is easy" Every DMC3 fan would love to have a word with you. His eels are awful and having Vergil replace Devil Trigger was absolutely awful. I love mah boi Vergil, but he should've stayed in the background until the end of that fight. I'd say Gigapede was the worst boss. He was a boring, bland, unexciting boss that felt like he belonged in a different game.
    The bosses in the fourth game are a huge mixed bag though. I like half of them, felt like I'm forgetting half of them.

    Fun fact. Agni and Rudra have elemental weaknesses so they encourage you to weapon switch.

    Great list, Demod.

I remember saying the exact same thing about Nevan to one of my friends, it's almost unfair that she isn't the best boss in the game. Vergil just earns that by default.

Vergil is a curse in Dante Must Die for this fight, not only you lost Devil Trigger you also lost your style ability for him, and let's put him simply Vergil sucks in this fight his AI is terrible, the worst part is the boss has a move when he grab Dante and kill him slowly you have to hope Vergil will attack to free you, except some the bastard won't free you. Because of this move alone what is consider the best way to deals with this boss (especially if you want an SS Rank) is to keep your distance and slowly kill him with Guns what a fun fight -_-.
    You also forgot to mention that in his second and third fight Jester is assisted by a giant ball that attack you in tandem with him.

  • @Spritzkrieg
    @Spritzkrieg 4 роки тому +3

    Oh, man. This is one of those games where I'll remember the first time I faced every single boss. This game is so goddamn amazing. I had been waiting for years to get a chance to play it (after watching my older brothers play it when I was a kid), and about a month ago I finally got my opportunity. Anyway, boss time!
    Hell Vanguard? Yeah, he's aight. I didn't die to him on my first go, so that was nice.
    Cerberus. What a good boy. But when I first faced him, he was a VERY bad boy to me! I think I actually died to him like four times, and finally got him on the fifth round. Then, when I went back to fight him again at a later date, it was like... ridiculously easy. I don't know if something changed, or if I had just progressed that much. Anyway, it's a good fight. ^^
    "Gigapede"? Yeah, that's what it's called. I can beat every boss without items now, but I'll admit I used a couple of stars during the worm-thing fight. It was kinda boring. Next.
    Agni and Rudra were pain the first few goes. I didn't know they could damage each other, nor did I know how to dodge attacks with finesse. The most I knew was that a jump made you invincible for a couple frames. I must've died to those two six times in total, but I did eventually triumph. Knowing how easy it is to make them damage each other, I don't have as much fun with that fight as I used to... but that's my own fault for not playing as stylishly as I could be. I'll be changing that in the future.
    So, my main motivation (yeah, ha-ha) for playing this game was just to fight Vergil. I had no idea what he was like, other than what my memories from as a kid told me: he was damn hard. So that's what I was expecting as I went into the first Vergil battle, and then... it was kinda easy? Like, oddly enough, I struggle with the fight more now than I did when I first fought him. I guess it was just the high of Agni and Rudra affecting me. I was in the zone and I refused to die. I knew what was to come, though, so I wasn't disappointed.
    I like how these bosses sometimes fit into entire different genres of combat. The heart of the Leviathan was one abnormal boss. I actually don't remember what happened during this battle. It was difficult for me at the time, I know that - but I don't remember the outcome, or how many times I died (or if I didn't). It was a boring one.
    Nevan, though, oh my God. I am embarrassed. See, for some reason I felt like my sword strikes were not connecting with her shelter of bats. So I thought that I had to whittle down her ENTIRE DEFENSE with ONLY MY PISTOLS. That was hell. I wish I knew what I was doing. I think Nevan claimed the most deaths out of me than any other boss, purely because I didn't know how to fight her properly. The other parts of the fight weren't that difficult, either, but fighting her for soooo looong was wearing me down and I fell apart, every time. Nowadays, though, it's no problem. She's a fun one.
    Beowulf was pretty difficult for me, too, but I realized a few deaths in that he really wasn't that big of a problem. Like you do with every other boss, I learned his moveset and adjusted accordingly. He did stomp me a good few times, but he's no problem for me now.
    I'm sort of baffled by my performance against Geryon, though. I did pretty bad the first couple of times. Although in my defense, his attacks are the kind that aren't immediately obvious to a newcomer. They're telegraphed, but you can't guess what he's going to do unless you already know what each warning means. There's a few bosses like that in this game - which is fine, I'm not complaining about it. I like all the fights, really.
    The second Vergil fight... I actually played this one early on someone else's save (I was using an actual PS2 and memory card. OG.), and dear Lord, did I love it. It was so much more difficult than the first Vergil fight, and so much more satisfying to watch. At some points, Dante and Vergil look like they're dancing more than fighting. Anyway, although Vergil pummeled the shit out of me the first couple rounds, I did eventually beat him. Now I've played that battle so many times that it's actually kind of a piece of cake, but that's only because I know it so well.
    Lady was kind of just annoying. It was a good fight, and it changed up the dynamic that I had gotten used to, but not in the most fun way. That might just be because I set up a false expectation for what the fight should've been, though. It's still a good fight.
    But Doppelganger? The only reason I have ever taken damage from this guy is when I get bored of fighting him and try to turn the lights on faster, allowing him to hit me. He's just so boring. At least with the Hell Vanguard and heart of Leviathan, I could move around to wherever I wanted. For Doppelganger, there were a select few strategic positions you could take and actually do anything. It is at least minimally fun, but I can't call it a good boss battle.
    Arkham, though? I mean... I don't really like him. As a boss. Well, not as a person or character, either. I like him as he serves the plot, of course, but... I'm getting way off track. Arkham was a very boring boss, and you end up spending more time spamming Kalina Ann at his slug nuggets than you do hitting Arkham himself. The thing that really saves this fight is Vergil coming in for the second half. Vergil Battle 1, 2, and 3 are all great pieces of boss music, and I love them all so much - but Arkham phase 2! That shit is my JAM! So fucking epic, I love it. The buildup, the fast action beat plus the swelling orchestra... the second half of the Arkham fight is the most immersive experience in the game. I can look past how boring the boss is because of the way that music makes me fucking move. And, dear Lord, Dante and Vergil together absolutely shred that tumor-lookin' ass.
    Of course, the crowing jewel of boss battles in the game is Vergil 3. This was the moment I had been waiting for, and it was everything I had hoped for. People say that Vergil was really difficult in DT for the second fight with him, but I never really had a problem with it. It's in Vergil 3 where DT becomes a true threat. Unfortunately, I succumbed and decided to use items to beat him the first time, which I regret. It didn't take away too much from the adrenaline-pumped experience, though. However, after I had beaten him for the very first time, I resolved to later go back and beat him without items.
    I did that. I was proud of myself. But then I thought, "Eh, I used Beowulf... It'd be a lot cooler if I could beat him without that handicap. Plus it'll align visually with the cinematics."
    So I beat him again, without items and using Cerberus instead. Kinda proud of that too. But NOW, I really want to face him on Dante Must Die difficulty. I'm very discouraged about doing that, though, and here's why:
    I want to play through the entire game with Super Sparda, because that essentially just makes him his normal self. It's just the pure demon Sparda versus his son, and that sounds really cool to me. He's unlocked by beating the game on Dante Must Die difficulty... but only in the Special Edition. With the original release of the game, I don't have that option available. So I just don;t care as much.
    I won't feel like a true master of the game until I've beaten it on Dante Must Die difficulty, with normal Dante and no items, so that is one motivation I have to beat it on DMD. But knowing that I can buy the SE game on Steam or whatever and get an extra reward that's very valuable to me, I'm not very motivated. I swear I'm not saying "motivated" as a dumb reference, it's just the word I'm using.
    I will inevitably revisit this game. When I do, it'll be with the special edition of the game, and I will beat it on Dante Must Die. Then I'll have fun with everything else it has to offer, too. I will come back to this novel-length comment one day...

    @welcometovalhalla2884 5 років тому +2

    Since I can tell you enjoyed the game a lot I have to recommend that you play on the higher difficulties and try to go for high mission ranks. You have to use your full arsenal to get high ranks and it makes the game much more fun that just blasting enemies with the basic Rebellion combo. Which is fun for sure too, but that's mainly due to how good and satisfying the animations are, not because of particularly compelling gameplay. And not only it makes it more fun, it makes it more effective too, since for the first time in the series your best strategy isn't the most boring one. The main combo isn't very damaging and it throws enemies away with the last hit, which forces you to close the gap again (and unless they're against a wall Stinger won't work that well because it also sends them flying on hit). I can also see you're only using Split and your guns in the air, while changing weapons or using Swordmaster could help you stay in the air for much longer. You can MELT bosses like Cerberus (without even knocking him down) or the Heart of Leviathan that way.
    All that aside, higher ranks give you tons more of red orbs if you need more motivation than "it's more fun".
    As for the higher difficulties, Hard mode is kinda just a NG+ mode with small differences, you can blast through it like NG+ in Dark Souls 3, but Very Hard not only gives enemies more health and damage, it gives them more agression and changes their placements. And in the highest difficulty certain bosses get new moves and regular enemies can now Devil Trigger. Revisiting missions with your full moveset and perhaps a different Style, alongside new enemy placements can make it feel very fresh.

    I love vergil 3 but i gotta give it to his second fight, i just love his moveset with beowulf and the fact that he uses devil trigger for the first time seals the deal for me. Plus the YOU WILL NOT FORGET THIS DEVIL'S POWER, YOU ARE NOT WORTHY AS MY OPPONENT gets me everytime lmao

    I highly recommend on DMC 4 you on the Credo Boss you play on the higher difficulties. At halfway point his move pool completely changes.
    Also, Try adding more variety to your move set it can be a little stale with one combo or two only being used in each clip however, the new character, and how Dante is handled in DMC 4 will help with a diverse move set.
    If you want to keep up with the same combos sure you do you.
    Just wanted to leave some suggestions.
    But if you want to critique how the boss fights are handled with different characters I recommend you review the bosses through the special addition.
    I really love these videos keep up the good work.

    Arkham was a pretty tough fight I won't lie honestly. I had to be super conservative of healing items and not get hit for the second phase of the battle. So, I disagree with that one I do however agree with number one. The Vergil fights are probably my favorite fights in the entire game. Mostly because you're on equal footing, the final fight with him is really great. I didn't had any healing items with me so I just used my devil trigger to heal and do damage. Beating him in the final fight was so satisfying. I much prefer the bosses in this game over the bosses in DMC 2.
    While DMC 2 had some creative concepts for the bosses; the execution of the bosses is what turned me off. They were just waaaaaaay too easy and were a joke. The final boss in DMC 2 was actually not bad compared to the rest. Except for the helicopter and tank bosses. They should've been in the cutting room floor to begin with.

    A ton of people are going to bash on *repeated triangle mash*, however growing up I did not see much love for this game. These days there's been what feels like a resurgence but with the semi mediocre entries afterwards, I don't care how he plays the game or what gets mashed, but damn am I just happy to see some recognition for one of my favorites.

    Vergil is my favourite character in the series. He's Cold Calculated and he's a damn badass. Not to mention Yamato is an awesome sword.

      Fun Fact: if you activate Vergil's Devil Trigger while wearing his corrupt costume, you can pretty much play as Nelo Angelo (even with most of his attacks from his boss fights in DMC 1)

      Wrong game. That's DMC4. DMC3 had a piece called Devils Never Cry, which is less techno, more metal/rock, and a spicing of opera. It's badass

    What I found easiest about Agni and Rudra is to use Sword Master and prop shredder.
    It has a series of two spins. 80% of the time it knocks their weapons out of their hands.
