the problem of lucifer is that its an amazing weapon in the wrong game. i love DMC 4. i wouldnt call it my favorite, but i love alot of the ideas it had, like allowing dante to have full kit, and be able to swap styles on the fly. however, its clear that the game was underbaked.
Imo Lucifer's problem was always that the weapon is confusing to understand while also requiring you to understand it in order to be efficient. It's incredibly counter intuitive and is the main reason many didnt't wanted to bother with it. Nevan had the same problem in DMC 3, feeling underwhelming until you manage to get how to use it through basically a trial and error mindset, but without knowing if it's even worth it at all. Devil Sword Dante was the solution to this problem. The basic uses of the weapon are enough to make it worth it to use, and then the player will experiment with it and realize the true potential of the weapon. This is what was lacking on both Lucifer and Nevan.

You can say that to each game itself. DMC4 has such a high skill ceiling gameplay But the game did a poor job at drawing beginner into advanced stuff because of rather annoying enemies' design and uninteresting basic mechanics. It takes long time to see any actual result. While DMC5 may lose some height compared to 4. It's much more beginner friendly with tons of tools and movesets which are much easier to get into. Enemies are mosly well designed to push player into learming the game. Beginners can see a steady improvement with each stuff learned. Which keep them interested and motivated to try more advanced gameplay.

The problem with Lucifer is that we're not told how it actually is supposed to function. For a weapon so unorthodox you would think if there was ever a time for a weapon tutorial, this would be it
I think both Lucifer and Nevan are pretty similar for casual players. Though I think Lucifer is a bit easier for beginners to wrap their heads around since the game does pretty well at explaining it's a control/ utility weapon. With Nevan due to DMC3 2 weapon limit ect, most people try it out once and never touch it again. Hopefully the switches new freestyle mode gets people to try it more.

The weapon is tied with Yamato for me. It is SO awesome and fits my play style so much. Even if you're NOT going to use it for its play style, the hit properties are amazing with this weapon. The air attack for example, is awesome. I love precision in EVERY game i play. Lucifer is just my favorite secondary weapon. Thanks for the effort.

I was JUST telling my bf how this was my fav weapon in dmc4 and how underappreciated it is lol
This video was superbly well done. Really fun watch. My biggest problem with Lucifer is basically how much it gets in the way of air combos at a basic and even intermediate level. Because you only really have a few melee moves to keep an enemy suspended, Splash being one of them, and yet using splash embeds a pin into the enemy that puts a timer "until your combo is forced to drop", or which renders your one and only mid-air-launcher useless (since again. Ecstasy would just result in the pin sending the enemy flying). So you either do use Splash and accept that that's just how it is, or you limit yourself to exclusively using rave, yamato rave and divekick JC. It just takes a longass time and practice until the weapon stops becoming a hindrance basically. The Kablooey gun in reboot offers a, to my knowledge consistent, if extremely simplified alternative, which allows for a decent variety of really sick setups. And DSD just gives you crazy control over an enemies position in relation to you, with very simple to grasp application. I wish 4 worked differently somehow, but the things Lucifer can do are undeniably extremely sick, and I hope I'll eventually get to try some of it. The fireworks JC, jealousy, guardfly thing for example looks just insanely slick and fun to do.
Advance mechanics talk aside, the weapon is good on a base experience with many counters and utulities, just requires some experementing. Like doing the sheild explosion when the saviour hit with his hand to insta knock him for example. Other than that Cool vid Chaser, keep it up.
Game is so deep people are talking about it and discovering new things 15 years later

Earned yourself a new subscriber. DMC4 has a lot of objective flaws but I love it so much. I wish Lucifer returned in some form in DMC5. I can't believe Capcom didn't make more weapon DLC for DMC5.

I have recently started using lucifer a lot ,mainly learning how too Rose JC and JC its other Moves i still have yet too delve deep in the pins cause i know how complex they are and yet i still learned new things like how positioning pins without even touching the enemy can help do creative setups and let you use otherwise useless moves like Round trip Etc but man Its kinda sad how hard this weapon is too understand and use with its RNG and it makes it practically impossible too fully use lucifer in freestyle especially with how low enemys HP and the fact that you need too be in vanilla and i am stuck on console ): freestyling is what i loved about summon swords in dmc5 you could do any setup at any time while lucifer RNG is more RNG than the freaking window boss fight Lol But you certainly have given me some Inspiration too start learning simple setups like i have with dmc4 dante in general the road may be hard but i am sure it be semi worth it and also thank you for expressing your pain with lucifer i thought i was just bad and couldnt get it too work but hearing a master like you say the pain you went thought it for just the million stab setup helps me a bit on the inside you people are legends i never would have been able too even learn guard flying if it wasnt for you and other style players
Dmc video are either crazy gameplay or video essay about things I don’t even know I wanted to know. Love this
I actually struggled with this weapon. As much as it is cool it was inefficient for me so I THANK YOU for this video. Now I really wanna get down to it again and try out
Great video, Chaser! Lucifer is definitely one of those weapons I didn't think was all that the first time I played DMC4, but a few...hundred...hours later, I'm finally grasping it. Somewhat lol.
I felt so cool listening to the combo explanation around 8:00, like I'm at a Combo Lecture at a University level
damn, the lucifer combos look sick, crazy calculations and enemy position control, very creative stuff!
I love the weapon Lucifer. It's about set ups, traps, ricochets, formations, patterns, and timing. Initial damage of the needles is piss poor, but that was never the point. It was always about putting them in the right spot for the right time, and detonating them all at once.
its good to see you again chasertech and yeah lucifer is kinda one of those gimmick weapon that very misunderstood by many, tho i like training with it, because of your tutorial in dmc4 i have managed to practice JCing and one of the reason is because of this weapon lol
While this kind of tech and the hyper-precise combos that result from it are really fascinating, my gorilla brain just thinks: "holy crapola that shit is so unnecessary" I'll just keep sticking Angelos with the pins

Oh and I didnt mention in one of the comments that for concept art, Lucifer was able to act like an independent creature and one form had clawed hands with a different head piece right on the center of his back and has the extra 2 Rapiers in Dante's hands like in the cutscene meaning it was supposed to have more to it, though you can see it behave as its own thing when Dante is idle and near enemies, Lucifer will nod its head and do the arms-at-side "Come at me!" taunt, there wasnt really much else in concept art but that is what there was and Lucifer could've benefited from things like it helping out much more than it does in the game while you fight, acting like a true fighting Partner and maybe able to use other weapons on top of it & its Rapiers and Darts.

I loved Lucifer the moment I got hands on it. I'm a pretty low level DMC player. I one trick the Swordmaster style on Dante, and never really look back. So when I fought Agnus, I fondly remember just MELTING his healthbar with Lucifer to the point where I was stabbing him so frequently in the feet that I had him down to 15% before I knew what was going on.
Your explanation is exactly how I figured the weapon worked. I knew how it worked, I knew the potential and I still don't care. I always compare it to Nevan in that it's not only a secondary weapon but also a support secondary but Nevan has saved me from Enigmas and Lucifer makes me wish I was only one input away from my other weapon.
I love Lucifer, wish we got to see it expanded upon and have new melee attacks centered around the Blades and Flamenco Dancing then attacks with Darts and Rose. The three marks on forehead also shows its rank and why it's so powerful & strong, heck Pin-Up ends Boss enemies in a few explosions and that shows how lower rank the enemies are, unless you go against like The Savior and I think Sanctus Diabolica.
*meanwhile is just satisfying "playing" with pandora*
Seeing how weird and difficult Lucifer was to work with really makes me appreciate Devil Sword Dante a lot more. As well as DMC 4 players in general for figuring this stuff out. The same could be said of Nevan in DMC 3, initially it seemed too gimmicky to incorporate within combos, but with enough time put into it, it’s pretty neat. And it’s probably why the devs made Cavalier R so powerful despite being the slowest weapon in DMC 5.

Oh yeah for sure. The fact they never added a training mode and you need to be on PC for infinite health mods is criminal. There's a lot of stuff I learned when playing DMC4SE on my PS4, but it took fucking ages and had me constantly just repeating the beginning of mission 12 on DMD over and over. Now I can just grab myself a singular enemy and work on doing stuff with it. Finally learned how to ecstasy JC and do a ton of cool stuff, which on console would have been a total pain
I dont watch a lot of dmc combo MAD videos anymore but Ive never seen a combo end with a Pandora's revenge before. Well done. Edit: aaaand you proceeded to show a combo video example of exactly that. Still, ending a combo with Pandora's revenge is very impressive.
Great vid, you made it easy to understand for someone who doesn't know much(me)!
When I thought Vergil's Judgement Cut timing was hard.
I can’t help but think that Kablooey, the explosion dart gun from the reboot, is a streamlined version of Lucifer. Apart from the six-embedded dart explosion which deals massive damage , it also knocks light weight enemies away in a direction that depends on where the enemy is facing, a lot of high level combos I saw thus centered around getting the enemy to face away from you. Not gonna lie it’s still really hard to use this technique in a practical setting, but I think the set play is a lot more consistent then Lucifer. Sorry for the rambling, I just really like weapons like these that opens up so many possibilities for comboing, and also made me appreciate the advanced players’ skills more. Thank you so much for this video and explaining this crazy weapon 🤩
Lucifer was my all time favorite weapon for Dante. He needs another weapon equivalent because it lets him do a version of summoned swords that feels like its really his own move.
There's another way that I like to use lucifer that I've never seen anyone do, if you're in sword master and you hold the style button, all swords that aren't in an enemy will stay floating around you until you let the button go, this is indefinite and the swords won't explode (unless the 15 limit is exceeded) or embed in enemies, so what i do is put up 15 swords hold them in place get in an enemies face and just combo them with lucifer until all 15 explode around me, and when I'm done 15 swords have exploded and another 15 have been embedded, Idk how much potential this strategy has but its just something I like to do
@justsomegamer01
11 ай бұрын
The pros: 1 there's no timing required, you can get each explosion on demand 2 it does a Lotta damage 3 it's not limited to 1 enemy 4 it's good for groups The cons: 1 you can't switch weapons 2 you have to be close to the enemy (like basically hugging them) 3 you can't switch styles 4 you have to keep the style button held If I think of anymore pros or cons I'll just edit them in later, like I said Idk how much potential this has cause I've never seen anyone else do it
This weapon carried combo mads on its back for years.
Good work. I think comparison with Nevan illustrates my issues with Lucifer. Both are pretty weird weapons you'll struggle to understand at first, but whereas Nevan does some thing much better or much worse than the other weapons, Lucifer does things the other weapons don't and has less of what they do. As a result, Nevan can shine in the right circumstances, whereas Lucifer can expand the scope of what Dante can do, but doesn't feel as satisfying to play around with, since it's more like a tool and less like an alternate way to play. DMC3's smaller mechanical scope wins out for me, as DMC4 attempting to integrate/balance Dante's abilities to account for full switching meant all of them suffered individually. That's not to say I don't appreciate Lucifer though. I love bomb-type mechanics in my games and it can be really fun when used effectively and very flashy, but I think it's a case of a game biting more than it could chew. I definitely would like to see the concept reused (besides DmC's one gun) but it would take a lot of work to do well, simply because the concept is that far out there.
Misunderstood yes but I always felt dmc4 was just unfinished.
lucifer is amazing, i'm trash around it, but i felt like it was a bit too random, so i would usually just spam pin up a couple of times and then rose throw after a combo or two, or right after if i needed an interrupt

Nevan: finally a worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary
I personally love lucifer. When i first played it was very satisfying to put a million swords into agnus and explode them. Watching the life bar gitter down.
Man its my favourite weapon from DMC IV. The combos are off the charts and wide AOE CC makes it an absolute menace. Its Dante's version of Vergil's Summoned Swords.
This is like the NEVAN of DMC4, quite confusing but its OP as hell if you mastered it
Lucifer only needs one singular buff which is: When set out spikes gets embedded on an enemy it should automatically cause stagger.

This weapon in its vanilla form is frustrating for me to utilize efficiently, so I just install the dmc4hook mod that prevents pins from exploding when you throw the rose, and there's also another option to give the pins it's own collision so when you knock the enemy towards the pin it locks them briefly like ebony and ivory. Imo a fair trade

Bro, Assault Spy is underrated asf.😎
Really Glad to see One more Awesome DmC fan . By the way my best is Vergil from 5.✨️✨️✨️
i think the thing that really hinders lucifer the most is that, even with its kit in mind, its regular combos do absurdly pitiful damage, even with the pin explosions in mind its just a really slow way to get pins out. I think that makes a lot of poeple just boucne off of it. it has a lot of high skill tech but your average person playing through for the third (or even 2nd or third) time isnt really going to see the appeal of the weapon until they look up some tech and see how crazy it can get.... and even then no one uses the regular combos. its all fnacy air stuff or pin up> other stuff. there's a whole chunk of its moveset that just goes unused at almost all skill levels
thank you
I'll just stick with using Splash and Rose when using Lucifer and occasionally Pin-up for Mephisto and Fausts lol. Learning air control in DMC 4 is enough of a time investment already. Admittedly my biggest problem with DMC 4 is the same issue I sort of hold towards fighting games, where the in-game systems allow for all kinds of expression but often are so difficult to execute that it becomes impractical for standard play. Lucifer's random pin placement just makes it a pain to use outside of its niches, and its still possible to play stylishly without them so, I'm good on that lmao.
