METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE

Boss battle strategy at the end of the level on rank S without damage on Revengeance difficulty:

We will need:

1) Wig for infinite grenades and rocket launchers (Infinite Wig A)

2) A sword that cuts through armor well (ideally Fox Blade, if not, Armor Breaker or Murasama), naturally fully upgraded.

So, against us is Grad, a large robot; according to the plot, we meet him for the first time, so it’s impossible to take him down as quickly as other Grads. Along with him is the same Grad, but an ordinary one, not a boss, so he is killed faster. The battle consists of 2 parts:

a) You need to push the Grad, which will be built like a tank. Everything is simple here: we run up to him, running left and right (so as not to grab the rocket in the face), then we hit him. As soon as he raises the shields, we place a block.

b) Then the boss will take his usual position and attack you with 2 shields. You can try to make a counterattack, but it is quite difficult - it is better to just block. Then we immediately run around him and attack the second Grada, a non-boss. You need to kill him as quickly as possible, so you need a sword that can penetrate armor well. You can also (and even need to!) use Ripper Mode, this way you will kill him much faster.

After killing him, we return to the boss. We select electromagnetic grenades and throw them at him. While he is stunned, we run up and kill him. Having made 2-3 hits, we throw the grenade again and repeat until victory. In addition to the bonus for not taking damage, you will also score a big combo - I had 103 hits. If we receive damage, we restart from the checkpoint.

It’s better to make a backup copy before the battle - in the main menu, where you are asked to select a slot with saves (after clicking Start in the introductory menu), select the desired slot and click , and then in another free or occupied save slot that you don’t need . You now have an exact copy of your walkthrough.

This way you will prevent yourself from going through the entire chapter again in case of a bug or not getting an S rank. Do this often - anything can happen.
