Credo will also become more aggressive, sometimes doing several different moves in a row, like Stinger, four-hit combo, and then throwing spear. You may try to go far enough for him to reach you or move yourself just below him. Also, he sometimes does several horizontal slashes in a row, which can be difficult to avoid. When his health gets low, he starts to use new attack where he teleports away and then charges forward with a powerful stab similar to the Stinger. But they can be thrown away by the circular strikes of Red Queen Combo C, Roulette Spin, Shuffle, or with DT explosion. He can surround you with them, making them float around you and then pierce you. He can teleport to the other side of the platform, and while floating summon the swords to send at Nero in formations. On harder modes and rarely on Human, Credo has the ability to summon floating, golden swords which he uses in a similar fashion to Vergil and Nelo Angelo. If you get caught, he will stop.Ĭredo also has the ability to teleport all over the platform so make sure you keep up with him. If you just dodge his lance Credo will throw it three times. First move will throw it back at him, causing a good amount of damage, second one, when done to Credo while lance is flying, deflects it, and gives you a tiny Green Orb. Sometimes he teleports to the edge of the battlefield and throws a spear at you. You can Buster his lance to use it against him. You should use this to your advantage just evade and counterattack him. Note that if you use Snatch on Credo when he walks around, he will fly towards you with his shield in front of him, ram you, and do damage. Remember to mash Buster and use Summoned Swords for maximum damage. You have 12 seconds to attack him, so do some sword attacks and then Buster. Buster will wear his shield down for a little, and after several Busters it will stop glowing. Be careful, as sometimes he will try to counterattack you. Before he stands back you must get to him, attack him once and immediately use Buster. This combo can be dodged by double jumping away or jumping behind him and using Air Hike.

It sometimes slightly differs, most notably by its last slash – it can be in vertical or in horizontal direction. Usually Credo will try to use his basic four-hit combo attack. This boss battle is one of the most difficult with Nero hence for first timers it can be really painful. After the fight, destroy that demonic seed with a large Green Orb and get ready near Divinity Statue as on the Gran Album Bridge you will be greeted with the boss, Credo. Two Scarecrows and Assaults will spawn (on LDK, a horde of Chimera Seeds). It can be reached with Air Hike with Roulette Spin if you find it difficult to reach. Interestingly, enemies don't differ on LDK - you will face the same small amount of demons. There you must fight some demons, which are chosen at random several Chimera Seeds, three Chimera Scarecrows, or three Assaults. "Darkness" is a small arena, which is called Hidden Pit. The answer to riddle is shadow, which falls from the obelisk – you need to go in opposite direction, as "shadows lead only in darkness". Destroy the demonic tree and go through the door behind it. Enemies will come in two waves, but between them two Chimera Seeds with big Green and White Orbs will spawn. On LDK, this fight becomes really ugly as there will be a lot of them, and all of them mashing their blades. On harder modes, this battle could be difficult as all demons will be infested with Chimera Seeds. Here you will fight two Scarecrows and an Assault later other two Assaults will attack you. After the battle, destroy all the seeds and go to the next area. These vicious beasts will try to tear you in half. You will be introduced with a new enemy, the Assault.

To proceed further on your quest move through the north-west entrance. You may also wish to participate in that crazy jumping Secret Mission one more time. Just destroy all seeds here and there are some near each entrance and below the bridge. After passing the bridge you will fight with 2 Scarecrows and Chimera Seeds. Reach it with Air Hike and slash it a Blue Orb Fragment will be revealed. Notice that one big seed you see on the bottom of a bridge. Go along the path, destroying all seeds you see.
