[PN] Personal Notes
==============================================================================
Weapons:
In addition to Yamato, Vergil also weilds the Force Edge and Beowulf.
Beowulf
"Flash gauntlets and greaves. The set boosts Vergil's speed making
him a powerhouse."-DMC3 file
In this game, Vergil can use the Beowulf to perform deadly close range
combos. While Vergil doesn't have as many attacks with the Beowulf as Dante,
his attacks are still effective and difficult to avoid.
Force Edge
"A sword magically imbued with Sparda's power. A powerful sword with great
hidden potential."-DMC3 file
In this game, Vergil can use the Force Edge to perform similar attacks as
Dante with Rebellion. Force Edge attacks are great at extending combos.
Side note, the Force Edge is the unpowered version of the Sparda blade that
Trish weilds.
Actual First Appearance:
Devil May Cry (2001)
In this game, Vergil played the part of a boss character named Nelo Angelo.
His true identity was hidden to both the player and Dante due to his dark
armor. Also, he did not weild Yamato, but instead he held a greatsword.
It wasn't until the third and final battle against him that his identity was
reveiled after he removed his helmet. The reason that Vergil was like this,
was because he challenged the Prince of Darkness (Mundas) at the end of DMC3
and lost. Mundas then corrupted his soul and took control of him.
[ML] Move Layout
==============================================================================
This is how I will be refering to movements in this guide. All
descriptions will be according to if Vergil is facing to the right. Movement
will be in lowercase letters, actions will be in uppercase. I will also be
refering to attack reach as 'character lengths'. One character length would
be equivalent to the width of Vergil's body on the screen.

*drags opponent with the blade*
Dimension Slash
d>df>f+DA (in air OK)
Entire Screen
Varriable Damage, can do 200,000+ (over 15+ hits)
*Vergil is semi-invincible durring attack*
This hyper combo is an uber version of Judgement Cut. When Vergil performs
this move, he dissapears from the screen and a wave of Judgement Cuts fill
the area. The entire screen near Vergil gets attacked which makes this
attack almost impossible to dodge. That being said, this attack will almost
always hit your opponent or force them to block. If Vergil and your opponent
are far apart height-wise, some of the attack will not reach your opponent.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spiral Swords
f>d>df+DA
Centered on Vergil
15,000 Damage on contact; 180,200 max damage (over upto 18 hits)
*swords fade after 4 seconds of no action, break from contact*
This is a varriable hyper combo. The ring of swords that surround him can
be used for both offense and defence. If used in the middle of a combo, they
boost damage; on defence your opponent cannot get close to use melee attacks.
----->Sword Storm *USES 1 HYPER COMBO BAR*
d>df>d+S (durring Spiral Swords)
Focused above opponent, opponent cannot collide with blades
50,000 Damage X 6 Blades, Blades fire after 4 seconds
Sword Storm is a great hyper combo to stop your enemy in their tracks. No
matter what kind of fighter they are, the blades will follow and assault
them. The only major downside is that placing the blades drains and extra
hyper combo bar.
----->Blistering Swords *USES 1 HYPER COMBO BAR*
L/M/H+S (durring Spiral Swords
Focused around Vergil, aimed at opponent, projectile
60,000 Damage X 6 Blades, Blades fire straight after 4 seconds
This action arms Vergil's summoned swords for attack, increasing their
damage. Alone, this action has little use. Only arm the blades using this
when you have a clear shot, because this action drains an extra hyper combo
bar.
After performing Blistering Swords, this action allows the player to
manually fire the swords. Vergil can focus the blades in any frontal
direction, allowing for rapid projectile attacks against any height. Swords
fire from top to bottom.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Devil Trigger
d>db>b+DA
Hyper Combo Powerup
12-second increase to attack power, healing factor, movement speed increase
*Vergil can air dash durring this Hyper Combo Power-up*
Pulling the Devil Trigger grants Vergil great power for a short time. This
time is not used up if he tags out with one of his allies. Durring this
hyper combo, you can use his LV3 Hyper Combo the Dark Angel.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Dark Angel*
LV3 Hyper Combo
d>db>b+DA (durring Devil Trigger)
Half of a full screen, foward Stinger attack, undodgeable/unblockable on hit
610,000 Damage, 35 Hits
XF lv1: 762,500 Damage
XF lv2: 915,000 Damage
XF lv3: 1,067,500 Damage
*ends Devil Trigger state*
Vergil stabs his opponent with Yamato, then proceeds to viciously slash
them with a hellish fury. As he slashes, summoned swords appear around his
opponent. With the final slash, Vergil turns around, reverts back to normal,
and sheathes his sword while saying "Rest in peace". The moment Yamato
clicks into the sheath, all the summoned swords impale the helpless opponent.
The Dark Angel is an extremely damaging Hyper Combo. It can eliminate an
enemy with half health or less. Durring X-factor, this hyper combo is almost
an instant-kill. The only tricky part about using this attack, is that
Vergil must be in Devil Trigger to use it, costing an extra hyper combo bar
and only giving a 12 second window to use it.
