Devil May Cry 5 - King Cerberus Weapon Tutorial 

What few people know is that Dante's Bruce Lee shouts actually empower the weapon without it K. Cerberus is nothing

this game is absolutely bananas these nunchucks are complicated and varied enough to be a combat system for a good action game ON ITS OWN

Two more details I wanted to add: K Cerberus is easily one of the best weapons for parrying and getting your style points up. The Combo where Dante spins the weapon on his wrist (the ice pause combo) may not do much damage, but can easily net you two full style ranks if uninterrupted. Also, the Bo Staff moves do the most damage if you hit enemies with the flaming tip of the staff, and not the body of it. In other words, it's like Marth from Smash Bros, where you want to be a the maximum distance possible from your enemy and still hit them for the most effect. This weapon teaches you footsies.

Damn it Dante has so many options that despite having the most fun playing as him, I consistently get the lowest style ranks lol. I actually died for the first time to a non-boss in M16 on Devil Hunter not because I found the enemies hard, but because I kept getting hit trying to vary my weapons to get a good style rank

Failed to mention that Percussion's properties are changed while DT'ed - namely, the bolts start closer to Dante but spread out

"The lightning ability is all about.... charging" -nice!

They took one of the best weapons in DMC 3 and made it even better.

Quick tip: Hot Stuff will *decimate* Angelo squads. Due to their predictable and slow and attacks, it's very easy to throw it out and let the long, active hitboxes due the job for you. It works even better when there's an Angelo leader: a combined charge will let you parry and break two or three shields in an instant.

Revolver and the last move shown in the video fan be boosted by devil trigger. It says so in the move description too.

christ this weapon could have a whole game around it.

Love this weapon so much. It's basically Ceberus + Nevan + Agni and Rudra all in one.

Also, you dont have to tap for ice age to maintain. You can hold the button as well

Sickest weapon in the game baby. Im bias though Cerberus was always my fav devil arm of Dantes. Almost lost my shit when they revealed it was returning in DMCV lol

I like how they incorporated a nevan and agni and Cerberus all in one. Nevan from 3 was my favorite lightning based weapon.

"which culminates with him crashing to the floor" me imagining dante fucking up the combo and literally face planting

"Do stick in there" right before you talk abouta staff weapon... Kudos to being able to pull that one off with a straight face.

When I use King Cerberus.... The original theme kicks into my head.....

I love your video tutorials it teaches me the most among all the other guides even including the game’s. Also, since I’m a keyboard user using a customized control scheme I love how you say the instructions like “lock on + forward +style” instead of stuff like “RB + forward” or “F+back” Thanks again man for all the neat tutorials

I find the instructions for all the electric moves rather unclear. Yes you have to hold the button to charge it, but it's upon releasing the button that the move is actually performed. Also minor things like Percussion and Regicide actually cause crumple/stun states on enemies, or Bo-staff does more damage when actually hitting with the flaming tip.

C’mon puppy, let’s parry everyone!

I went fiddling with this weapon, and it does pretty decent amounts of damage, especially when I went buffering the Lightning mode with the Ice and Fire modes.

Nice improvement with the background videos!!

Take a shot everytime he says "let loose"

"Both combos don't do a lot of damage" (talking about combo A and B) Combo B does 420 damage....ok then

Hey Devil Never Cry, i love your videos. They help a lot in the game. King Cerberus is my favorite weapon. Its very versitile. You got speed, range, defense and damage in a single weapon. Keep up the good videos. Congratulations.

Rock Back does more damage and stagger if you space it properly (similar to how the two fire ground combos have tipper bonuses). The spacing is around 1-1.5 void spaces.

That was quick, subscribed hit that bell and got a notification XD Anyway hello Devil

I feel you missed an opportunity to mention some properties each move has that makes it unique. Rockback will get you close to an enemy without knocking them away. Also energy projections such as the fire wave you throw after swordmaster+back, lightning from release swordmaster+back, or the ice from melee+back are the same kind of damage as projectiles from your guns. Meaning they are effective vs bats and spinning lizards

Before I even got a handle on King Cerebus I was consistently doing Rockback into Regicide. It's one of the best ways to get a quick letter boost in style at low ranks.

one of my favorite weapon playstyles along with the OG cerberus

Thank you, even though it's a ps not xbox it still helps. Not may other youtubers do this beats me. Keep up the good work👍

It was a shame they didn't add the Crystal extension where he hits the ground with the numchucks followed by a huge Crystal spike surrounding Dante acting as a AOE move much like the Ice Age move but it's ok tbh

Hey wanna let you know that quick drive is still possible in the game. You have to melee, then input drive with DSD. It's a lot quicker than the normal one, but it doesnt allow for the follow up 2.

As fun as KC is, I still miss Agni and Rudra

It feels weird to do the cerberus combo B but not be able to cancel it into satellite like in DMC 3, I miss the "Crazy" enders.

I want to play this game just for this weapon’s staff form because staffs are my absolute favorite weapon

Personally I have found that using Balrog (preferably Blow mode) to force a hard stun, is great for getting the time to pull off Hot Stuff. Granted I would use Real Impact on certain heavier foes but Hot Stuff is faster to use on a mob of enemies.

King Cerberus is the clash king. It has crazy hitboxes that are super fast which makes clashing enemy attacks super easy. Especially ice-age

You okay bro? You sound pretty distressed, dont worry take your time, you dont gotta make videos all the time!

Here we goooo

This was very help ful

6:03 Dante be like: *UNLIMITED POWER!*

A very technical weapon

This is really good but I think at least for me, the fire stick is easier to use while buffering for the electric one

I didn't know that about Ice Age damn it that made it would have made it so much easier to get to through bloody Palace

This episode was presented to you by a snaaake ThankYou

I know this might be a faraway subject given for now your just going over the basic weapons for now but do you think one day you’ll go over the DSD sword formation including how to effectively use them in separation with moves Dante can do while the sword are doing their job? I honestly think the sword formation is one of the coolest moves in the game considering how vast it’s move set really is and how they go into different “modes” whenever u are each style. Idk I think a video about that would be extremely cool and useful

I’m still having the hardest time trying to S Rank mission 10 on Hell or Hell. Your SIN DT vid helped wonders but I’m always netting an A.

one thing that I consider as downgrade is there's no second follow up to crystall like in dmc3 but then it does continue to the thunderclap well so not losing anything at all. also k. cerberus is real good at parrying

you forget, the way some moves CHANGE (!) in DT-Mode

Thank you for the tutorial. Honestly had no idea how to use the fire element until now and I've never been that good at combo-heavy games like this so you've helped a lot.

Most the weapons were superbly designed but i feel like they cheated Rebellion and the Sparda (i fully understand the story-related reason) but they get nothing not even After you beat the game.

Combo D is just one of the combos for Kilik in Soul Caliber. Very nearly if not move for move.

This a moveset showcase not a tutorial

aw hell yeah

It's wild how complex Dante is. Like any 1 of his "swords" with any 1 or 2 guns would easily have been enough for any regular action game, you could probably play just this weapon and still have fun honestly.

Next game add in rudra (wind element sword from dmc3) to complete the quartet

Hey Devil Never Cry what is your favourite melee weapon slot? Mine is D.S Dante + King Cerberus

Do the different elements have different effects? For example, do the fire nunchucks do fire damage?

Please do combo guide with each weapon and then combos using multiple weapons. Like this so Our master can make a video.

The hotstuff move fuckin melts boss health. Smashed Cavalier in about 1:30 in BP.

EASILY MY FAV

TKS mate

Guy dropped the ball on this one

Random but I can't find the answer anywhere else. What does Dante say when he does Thunderclap? (The lightning homing attack) I can never make out what he's saying

14:20 this can be cancel by just jumping just incase a enemy off screen just pops out of no where while your in the middle of this move it's happen to me before especially with fury's

the trouble im having is getting the "hold style lightning" thing to go on longer consistently ive done it a couple times but I cant figure it out

I kinda thought lightning would be more ranges and fire kinda makes sense with sword master

As much as I enjoy K.Cerberus I still feel like they should have brought back Nevan as well.

I would like a tutorial on Balrog, I don't understand how to use that weapon

You could put out an entire game based on just ONE weapon from this game. That would even be a more meaty and complicated arsenal of moves than most """"AAA"""" games that exist.

remember when ceberus is still only ice attributes

DMC3 Cerberus is sluggish. I like these FAST nunchuck attacks.

I can't believe Capcom didn't think fans would ask for more..they could make more money if they acknowledged the fans more

You missed Million Carats. 13:00 Also there’s the Crazy Dance in DMC3.

One move set, Revolver LV2

Otherwise known as the thing Dante uses to stunlock you because he's a dirty spammer

he is dante, and will always

How do u revolver cancel though, I'm at pc

Balrog next?

Hi, i playin the SE PS5 Version and dunno why but I can‘t use the Hot Stuff Combo, any idea why? I do exactly the same hild r1 + back + circle and I‘m pretty sure back then as i played the game years ago on my ps4 i used this combo. Now I‘m very confused. Cant rember needing an upgrade so did the change that for the PS5 SE Version or what??????

12:03 Zhao Yun? No It Was Dante XD

Are there any enemies in DMCV with elemental weaknesses like the spider demons in DMC3? Was the only reason I used Agni and Rudra honestly.

Says we're going over King Cerberus in this vid, as he plays with Nero in the background... 😂

How do you Rev Nero's by placing it on the ground pointing down

U forgot that the electric stuns enemies

Did I see it right, that when doing Ice Age you move back->forward towards the enemy (from left to right)? I try to practice that move and I did it a few times only when I was quite close to enemies and they were right in front of me. Can you give me any tips? That move is awesome and I'd love to learn how to do it every time I want to.

Hey DNC I can’t break Urizen’s shield without getting hit in mission 08 on Hell and Hell. What’s the strat?

Lol Dante literally has Kilik's staff movesets.

The camera angle is hurting my brain lol

I like long revolver...

What's with all the wacky expressions fam?

8:30 Nevan dmc 3

Does anyone know how to get that ps4 controller

I miss satellite

How do you do that special exceed animation at 0:29

wait wait wait, was part of this weapon in DMC 3?

Lamo I just completed the game with devel sword dante😂

Easy fido...how bout I take ya out fa a walk...come on puppy...lets go!!

I still can't un-see how the combo D looks so much like a Dynasty Warriors character, who used a staff, move. I mean of course it's a bo staff, but still.
