Some Final Tips

Here is a Link to a table listing the Stylish Value of every attack in the game, as well as other Technical information, done once again by LonerHero--Getting to Show Time!! Rank in combat isn't too tough once you've gotten the practice in, the most useful thing to know is that dodging will freeze your Style rank and keep it from fading. So if your not close to an enemy you should be dodging until you have an opportunity.The Unlimited Devil Trigger Code does not interfere with your End level Ranking so feel free to use it if you wish, Abusing the Chrono Heart can be pretty fun.The Devil Trigger Hearts actual have different functionsThe Electro Heart gives your attacks a wider hit box and has your DT drain a bit slower.The Flame Heart adds allot more active hits to your attacks really increasing the damageand The Frost Heart adds a freeze to attacks, Enemies will freeze in place when damaged, have this paired with the Chono heart and most enemies don't stand a chance.If an enemies health is depleted, but you still managed to hit them with a melee attack before they hit the ground, then you get a huge style boost, I'v only managed to do it a few times against Blood Goats using the Chono Heart. It's pretty tricky to do, but it's worth knowing.Holding down the Right Trigger or R2 will disable the automatic lock on, this is useful for when you just want to hit switches and not fight enemiesBoss fight only levels can be Tricky to get orbs on, for most bosses your going to want to make sure you end the fight at Show Time!! and stand as close to the boss as you can, sometimes the orbs the bosses drop upon defeat are the only ones you can get in the whole level. but in some cases the boss won't drop orbs, when that happens you need to collect the Green Orbs around the boss arena, Green orbs will only be worth Red orbs if your Style Rank is high enough. if you rank is too low they are worth nothing.Dante's Mission 18 can be tricky to S rank when it comes to Style Average, during the first half of the level, I recommend getting to Show Time!! and collecting the Green orbs around the arena, and then continue to get to Show Time!! and let it fade away a good number of times so your Average is high. The fight with Dispare embodied makes it tough to keep a good Average.Lucia's Mission 5 is tricky to S rank since your stuck with the Evil Heart which drains your health and counts as Damage, it's impossible to get an S in the Damage category, but if you use unlimited DT and the Healing Heart you can negate the effects of the Evil Heart save for the first bit of damage it will do to you.Lucia's Mission 7 is extremely hard to S Rank. For a while I thought it was Impossible. Thankfully I found this video by This DMC2 Player Javelina DevilAs shown Trish when in Devil Trigger is the only one capable of attacking the Fish Boss Tateobesu fast enough to gain enough Style to reach Show Time!!It's actually impossible to S rank this level with Lucia unless you do the Secret Mission first to grind out some Show Times.Javelina Devil is a great source for DMC2 S ranks if you need reference material on how you should play.Last this is just a Mod I made if anyone is interested----And with that it's the end of my Guide. I hope this can be useful to anyone interested in delving a little deeper into DMC2.See you later and remember to Keep It Stylish
