Dante - Nevan (M9)

Preferred style: Trickster
  1. Nevan's attacks come in fixed phases. She starts by sending some bats your way. Just run away and wait for her to say "Now you will become tired."
     
  2. Once you hear that, start running around and a beam of light will emerge from the ground right behind you so keep on running to avoid. (There'll be 2~3 consecutive beams for the harder modes)
     
  3. After that, she'll move around blowing a batch of bats at you. Get decently close to her and double jump over the bats to avoid.
     
  4. Now perform your best melee combos on her and keep hitting (she won't do anything) until her barrier breaks. Use DT if you have and continue butchering her until the black patch on the ground grows to its limit and wraps up, meaning, jump away. (It doesn't matter as much if you're DT'ed) Repeat this until she loses about 40% of her life, and then she'll go into her 2nd phase.
     
  5. She'll now stand on the far side of the room and send rows of lightning at you. These are easy to avoid - just run or (double) jump away. If you're using Royalguard, guard them by all means (easier said than done).
     
  6. Once in a while, she'll also electrocute the floor and that means double jump after the floor flashes. It might last a second or more so shoot in mid-air for a bit. Another way to avoid this move is to simply stand on the steps on the other side of the room (d'oh!).

    Note: In the harder modes, you'll hear her go "Now you will become tired" after she sends the rows of lightning at you, so keep running to avoid the beams that'll appear.
     
  7. After this, she is likely to come to you and do this move where sharp black spikes jut out of the ground. Get away from her and run away from the spikes if they get close, then wait somewhere pretty close to her. Chances are, she will perform a spinning attack, but you should be far enough not to get hit. Then, Stinger at her the moment she stops spinning.
     
  8. Keep attacking until her barrier breaks and repeat history. Sometimes she may get away before her barrier breaks so be patient and just repeat the whole cycle. Rapid shooting throughout the battle helps but not too much.
     
  9. When her life goes down to about 30%, she goes into her 3rd phase. As in the beginning, she'll send bats flying your way. After that, she'll appear in the center of the room. Shoot her while you can and you'll see her barrier break almost immediately. Shoot for a little more from a distance and she'll start approaching you quickly. Double jump as SOON as she's close and keep shooting at her from air, then follow up with a Helm Breaker (jump + Triangle with Rebellion).
     
  10. Nevan will then be stunned and you can attack her for a while before she rebuilds her barrier. If you didn't jump in time and she catches you, she will kiss away your life and regain hers, so DON'T make a miss. However, you can break free by activating DT. Nevan will release you and collapse, giving you a chance to attack. If you don't have DT, struggle to break free.
