After the catch on what you have probably already figured out, you will be thrust into limbo and forced into a fight.
| Wave 1 | Wave 2 | |
| Normal Difficulties | Shielded Bathos x2, Death Knight x2 | Ravager |
| Enhanced Difficulties | Shielded Bathos x2, Death Knight x2 | Shielded Pathos x2, Ravager x2 |
| Dante Must Die! | Pathos x2, Tyrant | Dreamrunner |
| Focus on taking out the Shielded Bathos first by double Demon Pulling them and finishing them with your sword. Afterwards, focus on the Death Knights with the Arbiter, while making sure you do not leave yourself vulnerable to attack from the one while fighting the other. Once the first wave is complete you will meet the new Ravager monster. This chainsaw-wielding monster likes to charge right at Dante, so evade to the side to avoid damage. You will want to attack this guy from the sides and rear, but make sure you get evade to roll away when he lights up. | ||
After the fight, head through the archway and watch as the road ahead is destroyed. Turn around now and look up and left of the archway to spot the Lost Soul #16 before checking the left alley for a Small Vital Star and the right for a Divinty Statue. The wall nearby can be broken with the Arbiter and contains a Copper Key #3. Now return to the plaza for another fight.
| Wave 1 | Wave 2 | |
| Normal Difficulties | Lesser Stygian x8 | Ravager |
| Enhanced Difficulties | Death Knight x6, Ravager x2 | Butcher |
| Dante Must Die! | Rage Spawn x5 | Butcher, Rage Spawn x4 |
| Using the Osiris, take out all the Lesser Stygian until the Ravager shows up and then switch focus. The Ravager likes to attack whenever Dante attacks from the front or stands too close, so make sure to be careful. Switch between the Arbiter for damage and the Rebellion for manuverability. It is best to only use 1-2 hits from Arbiter before preparing to dodge. | ||
After the fight, use Angel Lift on the glowing blue ledge near the doorway on the upper level to reach the 2nd floor. Inside, you will have a quick fight before you can continue.
| Normal Difficulties | Ravager |
| Enhanced Difficulties | Ravager x2 |
| Dante Must Die! | Ravager x2 |
After the fight, follow the path and use Angel Lift to reach the last solid platform with the two spinning platforms circling nearby. Wait for the nearby platform to level and use it to reach the top of the fountain where a blue rose lies.
In the dream world you will now have access to Angel Boost. Using your new ability, make your way through all the tutorials to break another rock with Arbiter. Note that the hardest combinations are when switching between Angel and Devil skills. Use this time to practice this.
When you return to limbo, you will be faced with a new enemy and another wave of enemies.
| Wave 1 | Wave 2 | |
| Normal Difficulties | Pathos x2, Lesser Stygian x5, Death Knight | Ravager x2 |
| Enhanced Difficulties | Shielded Pathos x2, Stygian x3 | Rage x2 |
| Dante Must Die! | Shielded Bathos x2, Elite Stygian x3 | Rage, Witch |
| Stay on top of the fountain and use Demon Pull to kill both of the Pathos before dropping to the ground. Once again, use Osiris to take out the Lesser Stygian while avoiding the Death Knight until you have dwindle the numbers down. Once the two Ravagers show up, focus on trying to get them airborn to allow for a good chain of attacks; the Arbiter's launch attack is great here. | ||
Instead of heading through the archway again, return to the 2nd floor and the turn around and stare out at the plaza. Notice the walkway off to the left, this can be Angel Boosted to, but the Silver Door - What Goes Around can not be opended until you find an Argent Key. Return to the 2nd floor and follow the path to the Angel Lifts. Use the first two and then Angel Boost right to a small platform with the Lost Soul #18.
Lost Soul #17
If you look right, you can see the platform that holds the firs Angel Lift you just passed is low enough to stand on. If you Angel Boost to get to the platform, you can see a set of glowing blue vines. Although you can SLOWLY dwindle this down with attacks from the Osiris, the Aquila is the weapon of choice. It is simply best to come back when you have it.
When you are ready, approach the archway and Angel Boost to the end of the level.
