Vergil - Cerberus (M3)

  1. Attack either the three heads or the legs, but the legs take very little damage. Still, under continuous attack over a period of time (using Spiral Swords for example), attacking either the heads or legs could still cause the dog to collapse (which is a good thing).
     
  2. Shoot Summoned Swords to remove the ice on their heads, but unlike Dante's shotgun, it may take a number of hits before the ice breaks off.
     
  3. If you continuously attack the heads, they will sometimes headbutt or snap their teeth at you. It's hard to predict exactly when they'll do this (it's quite random) but it's avoidable if you play a little more defensive and jump away from their heads after whacking a few times.
     
  4. Once the ice protection is off, you can now attempt to charge at them head-on. Go offensive with Aerial Rave (Yamato). If they collapse, you will have more time to inflict even more damage. If they don't collapse, keep attacking with Aerial Rave until Cerberus shows its next sign of attack.
     
    Reminder: The best time to attack is when Cerberus shake their heads.
     
  5. To evade the Ice Breath move (breathes out ice at the ground), run away from the direction of the of the ice and when it's about to get you, jump and at the peak of your jump. Perform Air Trick or Trick Up if you are at LV2 Darkslayer. Another way is to jump and at the peak and perform Aerial Rave (2 hits).
      
  6. Note: The head with red eyes does the Ice Breath, green eyes does the Icicle Falls, and blue eyes does the Ice Boulder Projectile.
     
  7. Jumping will dodge their Stomp-Ice-out-of-the-Ground and Paw-Swiping attacks, and to avoid the Icicle Falls attack, just keep running away. Sometimes, you may need to do a side roll near the end of your run.
     
  8. To avoid their ice boulders projectiles, run to one side of the room and jump/roll away when you see it coming. Alternatively, you can run towards the side of their legs. You can also slash it in half at the right time but it's not recommended.
     
  9. When they're about to lunge at you, they'll go into a particular stance so remember that stance. To avoid it, just stay out of their direct front. (In fact, just make it a habit to always stay away from their direct front). You may also need to side roll away when they lunge for extra safety. Attack as they reel themselves back to place.
     
  10. Cerberus's tendency is to stomp ice out of the ground with one leg first then the other, and then lunge at you so always be prepared to get away from their direct front when you see them do that.
