How to S Rank the Moonshine Mob | Cuphead Guide
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лип 2022
- I personally found the Moonshine Mob one of the most difficult levels to beat and S Rank, but once I knew the tricks and a loadout I was comfortable with, S Ranking was pretty simple.
Remember, to get an S Rank, you need:
- Expert mode
- 3 HP at the end of the boss
- No damage taken
- 6 bars of super used
- 3 parries
My loadout:
CONTROLLER: Logitech Gamepad F310 - amzn.to/3dx2u8H
MICROPHONE: XLR Microphone, MAONO Cardioid Condenser Vocal Studio Recording Mic - amzn.to/3bU62kH
MONITORS: ASUS VL279HE 27” Eye Care Monitor - amzn.to/3pmWMsE - Ігри
A little tip, if you time correctly and you explode a bomb on purpose right when the spider is coming the way the bomb is, if he's near of the explosion it will actually damage him. Like Justo said this also applies for the caterpillar (which the explosion destroy immediately) and also the flys
That would mean that the explosion has the same damage of the charge shot (which can one shot the caterpillar)
That's too risky

Exacly
The cops actually try to help you by shooting at the spider but are too slow and sometimes hit you, they also are on your side when starting the fight
Shooting the tongue in the 3rd phase actually does damage even if it doesnt look like it but it totally does damage, I did a test run where on phase 3 I only damaged the tongue with the charge shot and hitting nothing else other than the dust balls and sure enough, without hitting the mouth, hitting only the tongue got me through that part without having to damage the mouth
You can test this out yourself with the charge shot on regular if you dont believe me
Alr thx for telling this, hopefully this helps me get that S rank achievement!
Update : I got the S rank!
@@bencundiff9405 Good job on getting the S rank! :D
I just can’t even get to that phase to test it 😭
4:17 This is actually something that I found super cool. I feel like one of the more rewarding aspects of Cuphead is the fact that the bosses start off feeling very difficult and almost downright unfair at times, but as you keep playing you can notice the little indications and what you need to pay attention to to get the upper hand. It really helps balance the games sense of challenge with its fairness to me.
Yeah, but it would be better if, again, there was more time to react to the tongue.
3:30, actually in V1.3.2, before V1.3.3 Patch, the pink barrel didn't count as a parry when you parry it, but now with the V1.3.3 Patch Fix it will now count as one (probably chat were referring to that at the time (probably some of them playing on a platform of the game where V1.3.3 patch didn't roll out yet on said platforms))
I always had trouble with finishing the level in under 2 minutes so I normally use chalice, charge, crackshot, and super 1 for this one to speed up the fight. Also, regarding 3:25, the moonshine barrels originally didn't count as a parry, but they fixed it in a patch.
Fact: the ant cops try to hit the spider but the projectiles are too slow.
But if they o hit him they do damage to the spider! ASWELL as with the spider’s bombs. You can time it so the bombs can damage him.
Thank you, dude. I couldn't get this boss down for the life of me and with this guide I managed to get an s rank withing an hour or two. This was seriously a life saver
One thing I notice In the first Phase
The cops Take aim at the Spider
In some rare cases were the shot actually hits it damages the spider
Its usefull to dodge and get some parries
Thank you for helping me beat my favourite boss on S-Rank. I found the crackshot to be better. It deals higher damage than the chaser/is quicker. Even when it's the lock on projectile.
Oh and an Ester or Saltbaker guide would be greatly appreciated. They're super difficult for me.
This was my savior during my S-rank run. I managed to S-rank it with ease, and, once I S-ranked Saltbaker, I got the 300% file. Much appreciated, my guy. You’re a real one
Thank you so much I was dreading S ranking this boss but with your tips it took me 10 minutes thanks a bunch!
Thank you so much for this guide! I was getting so damn close but couldn't figure out what to change and I hate the last phase. Verbly going though this fight nice and clearly was super helpful thank you!
I love the editing style you have
WOOO THATS WHAT WEVE BEEN WAITING FOR WOOOOOO
Thanks to you I did it really easily after 3 hours without being able to do it, omfg I love you, thank you so much
Thank you. Had been struggling couple of days with this and now i got it.
This was so helpful because I had a really hard time with this mob and congrats on getting 15k subs🥳
Just got an S rank on the moonshine mob thanks to this vid! Thanks, it really helped! :)
thank you so much for all the s rnks guides i dont even think its possible to beat these bosses without your help
There is an easier way to tell if certain parrys count toward your grade, if they count towards your super meter they add to your grade. Only works if you don't have a full super meter though.
Thanks, I forgot that
@@Issmonke forgot to switch accounts 💀
@@acon70 I wasn't saying thanks I forgot that to myself, someone replied to my comment but I can't remember what they said(I have a bad memory) so I thanked them they must have deleted the comment
Thank You For The Help, Man! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
I just S ranked the entire game and your guides really helped so thanks
This was super useful! Thank you for this!
Although I found the twist up more useful for me than the seeker, that plus the super art 1 one the Sail took out the aardvark/ant eater in second!
Man the production quality is just getting better and better, he even coloured the text!
A very well-made guide @JustoAllDay, I'll admit!
there's only one really problem I found here and that chaser being used here as a secondary weapon
sure the others are great like round-a-bout and smoke bomb but I honestly don't find chaser that great, I actually prefer using lobber instead for the last two phases (being the anteater and the snail, I also try using lobber when I can on the 1st and 2nd phase due to lobber's great damage), lobber surprisingly works REALLY well on this fight, since you can just be on the opposite side of where the anteater is and do seem pretty good damage most of the time, and you can even parry the tounge even 2-3 times while at the same time doing damage to the ant eater!
as for the snail, I like going on top of the right most platform and use lobber to quickly end the snail in snap.
and before you ask, yes, I tested it myself and I once got an A+ with 1:08 with this strat, and once on expert with 1:15 and S rank, I highly suggest people still follow justo's guide here, but I feel like lobber is simply better than chaser for this fight
Wow I judged the chaser thing hard, used it and it worked immediately. Thanks man
Really helpful, got an a+ by following this guide (not an s because chaos orbit (chaser's EX) didn't count in the super meter category)
Thank you so much ! It helped a lot 😁
Can't wait for the 5 second "Just don't take damage" Glumstone S rank guide
Great video!
Damn after watching the video it only took me three tries. That second phase cheese was really good. Thanks
Thanks for the tips got it first try after watching
this helped me so much thanks!
Thanks so much after this guide I got it around my 3rd or 4th try
I’m just trying to get an -A on this boss for the achievement. Didn’t expect this to be the one boss to give me trouble with that.
Thank you this guide helped out a alot
Interesting, when I S-ranked moonshine mob I used crackshot and roundabout and smoke bomb so yeah, I had to deal with 3 of the bug balls in phase 3, it sucked
Oh damn! Thank you so much! I think that I finally will defeat them on S-rank!
On my opinion, Moonshine Mob is the bestest DLC fight, since it has two rejected bosses, a very good song and a cool fight system
Thanks for good advice 😁
When I S-Ranked this, I used Roundabout and Twist-up for the shots, I used P.Sugar for charms, and I used Energy beam for super.
I also managed to get 1 extra parry right after I knocked out the snail.
Thank you Justo for helping me S - Rank this boss I now can get the achievement
Great video i think you should do Esther or glumstone next because those are the hardest ones to S rank for me
Protip: in the thrid phase, when the tongue appears and it sounds more loudly, it means he will do the attack (that helped me so much personally)
I agree with you because I think on the where is the anteater’s snout is going to appear and it’s hard because I think if Tongue is going to show up or not because he does that zip with his tongue
I just got an S rank on Moonshine Mob thanks to your video! ^w^
That's awesome!
this is such a good tutorial, every other tutorial is just " Hit him a few times he'll die"
the funny thing about this boss is that i walked right up to it thinking it would be the easiest dlc boss to s rank. oh boy. oh man. took me the second longest next to saltbaker i think?
at least i’ll probably use a few tips from here when i inevitability play against them again
You can actually use converge to get rid of the insect ball. It helped me beat it on expert! Can’t wait to see some more streams!
I hadn't thought about using converge
in the final phase the ant eater only shoots his tongue on one side at a time. so just stay on the right when his tongue is going on the left. Also Charge shot one shots the Ant ball so just charge the shot and shoot at the tongue and soon as it shoots. you break the ball and hit it with charge.
Neat guide. Howling Aces next? I’m really struggling with S ranking them. That final phase keeps tripping me up.
i just s ranked that today was def a hard one. that last phase is annoying
This helped me get my last achievement for 100%. Thank you.
Real quick, the ant cops in phase 1 are actually aiming for the spider, the spider just moves out of the way to where he never gets hit and you can be hurt in the crossfire. I for one think that the player characters are just in the crossfire between the moonshine mob and the ant police.
I heard there is a small chance the cops can land a hit on the spider, which does a little damage.
Omg thank you so much!
The barrels actually used to not count for parry's, but luckily the fixed it in a patch that releases about a week ago.
the moment we are been waiting for is here
I got it first try with
Player Cuphead
Shot A Chaser
Shot B Spread
Super Art I
Smoke Bomb Charm
after watching your video! You earned a sub, thanks a lot!
(Btw this wasn’t s rank, it’s just that s rank videos usually tell you better weapons and charms because if you’re not trying to get s rank it’s easy)
Note: The ant cops aren't actually shooting you. They're shooting at the spider. That's why I love this fight, it's not directly between the boss and the player - it's the mob VS the cops and the player is sorta just caught in the crossfire.
The tongue does take damage, it has the yellow flashes on it when
Hit by chalice super 1. (There are flashes on both the snout and the tongue.)
I also used that same loadout and yes I agree that moonshine mob was one of the hardest bosses to s rank
I HAD THAT SAME IDEA YESTERDAY AT SCHOOL
but using the chaser shot for the first phase
Things that Count for Parry Requirement: Smoke Ring (Also Damages Charlie Left Legs), Barrel, Anteater Tongue and Soundwave.
I used cracked shot for first 2 phases and convertage for last part and it worked nice
Thank you for letting me know about the Anteater trick. Now I know when he does a fake out
Wish me luck on this boss!
Edit: Moonshine Mob S-ranked! Thank you Justo!!!
Btw chat was technically right when saying the barrels don't count as S rank parties, back on 1.3.2 they didn't count but the devs patched that and they now count
If you use lobber and aim up some shots will bunch up and the spider can walk into it.
I used the Crackshot for the Spider Mobster and the Snail, while using the Charge Shot for the Light Bug and the Anteater, I even parried the snail's sound waves to ensure I got 3 Parries in and that's how I got the S Rank on the boss. Do not use the Crackshot on the anteater, because it always homes in on his tongue and not his snout. I don't know why, it just does.
Thanks justo if you want parrys and need heath use heart ring im not saying you have to do it its just a suggestion
I started the dlc yesterday and after suffering with whinchester (I left it for later) I went to the gnome boss and beat it within 2 attempts and got an A- I guess after so much attempts with whinchester I got better in general somehow
Thanks for helping
Here’s a little fun fact. The cops in the first phase are actually not shooting at you. They’re shooting at the spider and will damage the spider if the shot hits him.
I've been Trying to beat this Excuse of a Boss Fight for the past 20/30 minutes.
I searched up How to beat It Him On expert to see if i was doing anything wrong.
Now, ill Try the way You Explained.
Edit: well somehow it worked like fine whine, i just died more 2 times then i managed to easly beat the boss
Thank you for the awesome Guide!
If Your Having trouble,you can run these as well!
Weapons: Charge Shot-Crackshot
Charm-Chalice
Super-Super 1
get 2 parrys first stage,roll through the second stage and use the charge to one shot the flying bug balls i phase 3,Easy DPS check for this boss
So actually I got S Rank on them finally with the charge shot and roundabout, charge shot makes the first and third phases go pretty fast and roundabout makes the second phase a cake walk. I recommend trying out charge shot on the account it instantly defeats the caterpillars in the first phase and the bug balls in the third phase, people who are good with the charge shot should try this method if they're still having trouble
In fact I was able to S Rank them again and was able to beat them in 1 minute and 44 seconds, highly recommend you try this strat
This is the only one I've been able to S rank so far. I find it works much better with Cuphead/Mugman and smoke dash.
thank you 😊
Thank you for your tips I s ranked this boss can you tutorial for glumstone the giant to s rank
Next you should do a regular mode guide on how to beat Glumstone the Giant.
Thank you
it is better to use 3 super, which will delay the snail for a long time, and if you use charge fire at this time, there will be about 70 or 140 health left to deal with the anteater. (Charge fire- 46 health)
Thanks so freakin' much man, u saved my ass
Charge shot is much better for this boss, it allows you to one-shot the bouncing caterpillar in phase 1 AND the bug cloud in phase 3
I like how my favourite DLC boss is first
Also i don't need the guide since i already S-Ranked them but im gonna watch anyways
I need a Esther Winchester S Rank guide bro 😭😭😭
Fun fact: actually the fly cops are in a fight with moonshine mob and the smokes they blow damages the spider
Ok so in the Cuphead NHE there is a secret phase for this fight because this is my favorite in the DLC. So you have to deafeat the Gentleman/Spider with the bombs which will allow you to hurt the music player in phase 2, which transforms the Lady Bug and shortens the phase then phase 3 will be the same but phase 4 will be slightly longer and completely different the Snail becomes a Turtle and the Worm is like a wack a mole, Lady is throwing barrels and Turtle is walking around with head in shell and you have to find a way to get the head out and Gentleman is on a massive web in the background and once phase is over he will fall away and break through the web and be in his original unused massive form the Anteater breaks the ground, everybody else is in the sky and now you have activated the secret phase 5 and it has turned the fight into a aeroplane fight, more about the lore of this and phase 5 next video so stay tuned for that.
to me it was easy to s rank but if you do s rank guide on the howling aces I would really appreciate it
Thank you so much this helped me beat him on 2nd try
No problem 👍
Use crack shot and roundabout it is op for phase 2 and maybe 1 when mr worm comes and the goons and phase the crack shot becuase it’s on crack also phase two roundabout is the meta just smoke dash away also parry the tongue by dashing for max chalice and for divine relic like me jump parry
Do a Gide for the next boss you face after moonshine mob Esther Winchester who has the most health of all the bosses in the DLC!
In the first phase you can duck under the flies without taking damage
Well I am a noob and this helped me so much thank you
I find parrying the spider spray things in phase one annoying and difficult and found parrying the ant eater's tounge easy and got up to 3 parries in one tounge reach
Thanks
For the first phase I just camp on the very top platform. I destroy the bombs by jumping into and away from them. If the flys come I just crouch under to get rid of them. If the boss comes I can just jump over him.
I was able to S rank all of the bosses except 1, sherrif whenchester.
can you do an s rank tutorial on that?
If your struggling with time just go the top platform in the middle of the screen, and then aim up with lobber
When I was doing all DLC bosses on expert
When I got to the howling aces I kept dying on the last phase because I only had 1hp when getting there then a random time I got 3hp and didn't get hit once and i didn't mean to get a S rank
Just to let everyone know, parrying the barrels does infact count as a parry and shooting the anteater's tounge counts as damaging it, I actually have proof on my channel if you ever wanna see it.
