Lost Fragments

Bayonetta Trophies: 51/51

Well actually, I have completed this game a while back. 6 months ago to be precise. Its just a challenge I put myself into. To fight the final most powerful boss that this game has to offer.

 

************** From Here On, Its Spoilers ****************

I have come to notice an item that can be bought in "The Gates Of Hell", one of Rodin's Treasure, the "Platinum Ticket". The item is priced at 999999. Quite costly, although now I have the knowledge and skills that is required to farm for that amount of halos. All I did was, equipped Bayonetta with the durga (lightning) on her hands and durga (fire) on her legs for set A. And for set B, I equipped her with Shuraba on her hand and Lt. Col. Kilgore on her legs.

Then I pick chapter 2 and after the fight where the train wreck, I activated the Alfheim portal. This is the portal where you can Farm for Gil. Just make sure you don't kill all the angels here otherwise you won't be able to go back. Using the combo PPPPK (Switch to set B) and KKKK, at the time you press kick on the durga (set A) and change it to set B (Kilgore) you would notice that there will be a barrage of rockets coming out from Bayonetta's feet. This move would kill some enemies almost instantly, but what we should do in this Alfheim portal is, activate witch time by dodging some of the Angels attack which is predictable. Unleash the combo, continue by firing the gun (square) and never let the combo window dies, keep juggling the combo until you (with luck) reached 9999 and after that, it would leave you at around 1 million halos, if I'm not mistaken, anyway close to that amount and just a battle that only take 15 minutes or so to complete, you would definitely be able to buy that Platinum Ticket in The Gates Of Hell in no time.

Rodin The Infinite One

To defeat him, I just use Pillow Talk, with Lt. Col. Kilgore for the legs. With accessory Climax Bracelet and Rosary beads.I tried to get as far away from him as possible and kicked like hell, that would trigger the missile weave attack that does quite some damage to him. Whenever he comes close, I would just dodge his attack sand the beads would explode and damage him. There was one time however, he caught me and use his ultimate attack (like shun goku satsu from Street Fighter's Akuma) and drain up all my lifebar. Luckily for me I managed to get up after the attack and started running around like crazy and finally managed to defeat him using the Beads and Missile techniques earlier.

So, ends my journey in Bayonetta, now to return this game to its owner and continue to play other games in my collection.

I will be using this new default template for my gaming log.

I must say, that I never really liked to play a game where the Protagonist is a female. Not that I don't like girls, on contraire, I really love them, its just that in my mindset, coming from the background of playing games where the boys / man are the heroes and the girls / woman are the damsels in distress, I see woman as the one who should be protected and loved instead of them fighting of hordes and hordes of monsters and they are the one protecting the man.

Her slender body, matched with a music to par, dancing while pouncing on the enemies are truly a sight to be hold

That all changed when I play Bayonetta. It is hard to accept at first, one so beautiful and graceful could become so benevolent with huge armory of weaponry and moves to kill even the most monstrous of opponents.

Fly me to the moon, and let me stay among the stars, let me see how spring is like on jupiter or mars

It feels like the memory of watching all that sailormoon anime back in my childhood haunts me still while playing this game. Although the roughness and toughness of Bayonetta's personality (yet somehow she showed a woman's sweet, lovable and chicky persona that we love) reminded me that this is not your typical anime cartoon.
Although it seems hard to control her at first, due to lots of weapons, magic and move sets to learn and muster. But after much hard fought battles, the skills and moves seems to be engraved to my muscle memory whereas when surrounded by group of enemies, I would know which enemy attacks first and dodge the attack and trigger the witch time. And when in Witch Time, all my combos would simply be lashed out almost automatically.
The combos I liked the most are the shuraba and durga (fire) combination.
P, P, K (Hold), K (Hold) and repeat
The two slashes would keep enemies at bay while the kick (hold) would trigger a bomb and the other kick (hold) would trigger another bomb. These bombs would trigger an explosion on impact, or just blow away in a few seconds untouched. I tried it on a Beloved and it took a hefty half bar damage of the enemy (per bomb!).
This is truly a wonderful game. All that is left for me in this game is to defeat the last of the Lumen Sage, no not Balder,
