Beening

Ah, thank you so much for that clarification. I was starting to think I was just terrible at executions because I could not get that to land. But I stuck with what worked and found that adding the 2C made it work perfectly for o extra cost. I did notice that if I did not take a step back after SB Garu, that the 2C launched the opponent behind me but since I was holding back during 236CD anyway I just held 4 a moment longer and input 1C then 236AB and the combo works consistently.

I have noticed that all of the Mahamoan combos end with the 236D input but after trying them it does seem as though the C version of Magarudyne works with more consistency. Is this a mistake or is there a reason for using the D version over the C version? They seem to have the same number of hits and last about the same length of time so I am unclear as to why we would use a more difficult ender. Also the combos do not seem to work for me as posted. I am not sure if this is somehow due to my using the C version of magarudyne as opposed to the D version (which I cannot seem to land after j.C) but it DOES work perfectly if I simply add 2C in between 236 CD and 236 AB, then C garu combos into hama no problem. This also works off of FC starter or 1HSM starter, no counter.

Awesome! Thank you very much. I will keep working on these techniques and try to get better.

I see. Thank you very much. The Thanatos problem was that I was using the SB version which does not allow the 5C (1) > JC since he teleports behind her. I had no idea that I needed to do the B version for it to work.

I have a few questions regarding Lizzy's combos 1) When perforing awakening 236 CD > 2D > 2A >stuff, I have a difficult time getting the 8~2 ratio correct, any advice or helpful tips for doing this more consistently? I am kinda getting it thru trial and error but would love any advice anyone has. 2) when doing AA 2B > jc > JB > JD, I have a hard time getting the grab to connect consistently. Is the general trick to let JB hit more or less? I really like this combo path and would like to be able to do it reliably and would love any advice anyone may have. 3) Would anyone here consider Hama combos practical? I feel that I shy away from ever using them despite how threatening they are and believe them to be a strong tool for beating Boss Lizzy in score attack. This question is more to get a general consensus for how much priority I should put into learning them further. Thank you all in advance.

I think this concern may fall under the same category but whenever I try Lizzie's hama combos, I usually get to the end where it's 236 AB > (dash) 5AA> 5B > 2B > j.C >236D and the move goes over the downed opponent. I have a few quesses as to why this happens and would greatly appreciate any confirmation: 1) 5A is hitting the opponent at the wrong time, either too close/ not close enough or hitting too high off the floor, 2) Lizzy is too close for wind's hitbox or too high, probably from 2B, or 3) My timing for the last three or so hits is off, either inputing too slow or too fast. I'm not sure what the problem is but if anyone else has encountered this problem please give me any tips on how to make the last part connect the j.C hits and I fly over the opponent every time.

IDK then, as I said, when I do it normally/fast Thanatos warps behind Lizzy instead of staying in place and doing 5

I was wondering something about a combo video I saw, the link is here It's the combo from 0:17 to 0:27; he basically does 1HSM > 5A > 5B > 5C > 2C > 214B > 5C (first hit whiffs, 2nd hits, does not teleport behind Lizzy) > 2C > 236 AB. I cannot for the life of me get the 5C to happen without Thanatos warping behind Lizzy. I've tried doing it earlier and later and I'm starting to wonder if it is even possible in the current version. Does anyone know if this can be done but I just suck or is this something that is no longer possible ? Thank you in advance for any help.

Hey I'm not sure if other people are having this problem but on Elizabeth's 20th mission I have noticed that her j.2B consistently does not come out. I have no idea why because in her earlier combos I could do it midair to combo easily but on #20, after Mind Charge at the end I land 236 AB->5B->2B->jc->j.B->j.2B where j.2B almost never comes out. I have done this combo once and never again, it is extremely frustrating because I have no idea what prevents it from happening. Does anyone know what causes this? Has this happened to anyone else doing this combo?

OK. thanks. That thing about the distance makes sense. So the main problem seems to be that was too close to the corner when I landed 236B. That does make this part of the combo super impractical though but still good until then.

Hey, two things: 1) under Combo Enders, it says 236 A/B/C when I think you mean 214 A/B/C for the fireball, and 2) on the 27th mission for the new challenge mode: 5B > 5C > 3C(2) > 214214A , 5D > 22B , 5B > 5C > 2C , 5C > 236B , 6B > 236C I am having a hard time figuring out why the explosion from 236B sometimes works before the enemy techs, thus allowing the 6B to combo but most of the time the enemy techs before the explosion happens. I think the only thing we can do to influence this is the timing of the dash cancel but I cannot tell if it is a matter of not doing the dash fast enough, doing it too fast, or if perhaps the timing of when we press the B button has some effect. Does anybody here understand how to make it work consistently? If so please let me know too. I have done it a couple times but I don't understand why it worked when I did.

I apologize if this isn't the best place but while I was going through Hazama's challenge mode I became confused at his 26th challenge because after he lands CH 236-D he performs houtenjin but from the tip of the venom sword followed by what appears to be a dash cancel, and when I had the input display on the inputs were 23626-B. Does anyone know how or why this works? It seems very useful for calling out a move with venom sword but I can't seem to reliably do it. I was just wondering if anyone here figured out how to do it or if there's some trick I'm missing. I did that challenge anyway but I would love to hear how some of you dealt with it.

I was wondering if anyone could help me get the timing on this combo: •[o] j.B > j.C(1) > 5B > 2B > 236CD > j.214CD > [6] > j.B > 5A > 5B > j.B > j.C(2) > j.236D [DM:4138/SP:7%(-25%)3%] --------------------------------------------l---------l How high must I be to do the Pandora missile EX here? If I do 8>j.214CD it comes nowhere close but if I tiger-knee it the computer recovers long before it happens. I am also having little luck canceling 236CD into it or is that what I am supposed to do? Turns out canceling works now I want to know how to connect the j.B. The combo list says to hold 6 but I think we have to hold [3] to get there. Any advice? Thank you. I am glad that that was an error because I thought I was failing bad until I did it with one hit and the damage matched up.

I think the 3rd normal combo has an error. In the combo: •[o] 5B > 2AB > [6] > j.B > j.C(2) > 5B > 236CD > 22A > 214A > j.B > j.2B [DM:3198/SP:10%(-25%)2%] -------------------------------------^ I don't see how we can land the 2nd hit of j.C from that height.

Thank you so much. I was hoping that the really strict stuff wasn't needed to do well with Aigis so there seems to be hope for me yet!

Also I figured that out almost immediately after posting that question which made me feel dumb/awesome.

No problem, that was kinda my bad. I was just frustrated trying to learn Aigis and Challenge Mode seemed less helpful than what I found here. How often do you think this combo and mission 24 are useful? The timing seems too strict to be reliable but the combo starts from 5A so I have mixed feelings about it.

Wow, I just got it. It seems that you have to input j.C IMMEDIATELY after the AOA fatal and wait until just as Athena starts to vanish to input the j.B. The window of opportunity seems strangely strict; for instance, why is it that delaying j.C seems to lock her jumps?

I have been having trouble on Aigis' 27th challenge, where you have to AOA fatal C finish and do j.C >dj.B. No matter how often I do it Aigis will not perform the jump. I have tried doing it earlier and delaying it and neither seems to work. Can anyone give me some tips on how to time the jump?

So can anyone explain how to do Aigis' 24th mission? I am not sure how help'ful or reliable this combo is but I have a VERY hard time doing it and it hurts my arm after awhile. It is: 5AA > 22B> j.C >6 > j.C > 236D >2A+D > 236A+D. Any help/advice? Can anyone do this reliably?

I am not sure how helpful this is but one of the combos gave me a hard time until I did a fatal counter. It was: •5C(2) CH > 2C (Thanatos close to opponent) > 214B > 214CD > 5C(2) > 2C > 236AB [4050 DM] [50 SP] It said counter hit but when I tried it on Mitsuru in training mode it would only connect after a fatal counter, never a normal counter. Is this just character specific or a mistake?

Hey, I am James. I love this game: story, gameplay, everything. Rachel is hands-down my favorite (though I tend to use many people). I found her personality and atitude charming and her gameplay had me hooked. I am online usually during the weekends due to school, more so during summer break, etc. I also love JRPGs and Beat-em-ups like Devil May Cry and Bayonetta (Dante is my favorite character ever!). Drop me a friend/match invite whenever and I will get to you if I can. I always like to improve and face strong players, especially other Rachels, I am friendly and I live in the U.S. for connection references.

Cool, thanks. I was only able to do challenge 15 once but I studied and tried for about an hour and a half to get the timing. It seems like the first time doing a challenge is by far the hardest.

I actually did the 15th combo after my last post and I noticed that the enemy apparently needs to be fairly high up during the double hell's fang> follow-up part for Devoured by Darkness can hit and in both cases it seems that the hell's fang/Devoured by darkness needs to be executed right around the time ragna puts his arm back to its rest position, and I mean right before it goes back. Can someone confirm/deny this? I have had a really hard time trying to understand the timing for this. I assume the first hell's fang needs to be done on an airborne opponent near a corner from about Ragna's head hight, am I correct?

Hey I have nearly completed Ragna's new challenge mode, but the timing for both the second hell's fang and mostly the devoured by darkness are really hard. I have been trying to time both for right as Ragna puts his hand away but the D by D either activates too late or not at all. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
