Most important tip for Devil May Cry 5: Everything for the red orbs!

In the last part of Devil May Cry called DmC, Capcom (Monster Hunter World) tried to reboot its action series. With Devil May Cry 5 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One, they are now building on the more than 10 year old 4th part. The optical style of DmC has been preserved and there is a style rank with which you can earn a lot of red orbs. We give you tips on the orbs and reveal other tricks.

• The currency in Devil May Cry 5 is red orbs. With them you can buy equipment and skills. And the offer is more than extensive. So you can never have enough orbs.
• If you destroy your surroundings and search thoroughly, small amounts of orbs will appear here and there. You get a lot when you defeat opponents. And here the amount depends on your style rank. The higher it is, the more red orbs you get as a reward.
• To reach the highest rank (SSS), defeat an opponent with as many different attacks as possible, arranged in combos. The letter on the right in the picture tells you what rank you are currently on.
• There are also spider art creatures with red orbs hanging on them and also some kind of orb bushes. With both, you only have a short chance to get to the orbs. So attack as quickly as possible with many combos.

Practice, practice, practice: use the void

• You need some practice to carry out attacks that are as stylish and effective as possible. And that's exactly what the Void is for in the game. A practice arena in which you can compete against any enemy you have already defeated.
• Here you can practice your combos and find opposing weaknesses. The keys you press are shown, as is the damage you do.

Use taunt as a style element

• To really perfect your style, you can mock enemies. These are gestures that you incorporate into the fight and that additionally increase your style rank. These can also be purchased with red orbs. The more effective you are, the more expensive.

Use V's demons properly

• If you play the character "V" in Devil May Cry 5, you have the ability to let demons fight for you. Among them there is "Nightmare", which causes a lot of damage with its size and the laser beam.
• If you have learned to control Nightmare properly, its destructive force can destroy not only enemies but also walls behind which secret places are hidden.

Phoning is always worthwhile in Devil May Cry 5

• Then there are the red phone booths. With them you can call "Nico" to shop with her and stock up on new equipment and new skills.
• You also get to see a mostly funny cut scene every time you make a call. So it's worth calling Nico, even if you don't want to buy anything, because each phone booth has its own cut scene that you would otherwise miss.
