Step 1: Human Difficulty Playthrough + Collectibles (Blue Orbs, Purple Orbs, Secret Missions) + Miscellaneous Trophiesīeat the game on the lowest difficulty “Human”. Enemies are based on Son of Sparda (400% health, same attack speed and enemy spawns as Son of Sparda).
Heaven or Hell = You and enemies die instantly in 1 hit. = Unlocks Heaven and Hell, Hell and Hell, and Infinite Devil Trigger costumes Enemies are most aggressive and the enemy groups are same as Son of Sparda. Dante Must Die = Enemies have 800% health and 800% damage. New enemies spawn. = Unlocks Dante Must Die and “Irregular Full Custom” skill for Dante. Son of Sparda = Enemies have 400% health and 400% damage. Devil Hunter = Enemies have 200% health and 200% damage = Unlocks Son of Sparda. Human = Enemies have 100% health and 100% damage. On top of that, you must repeat the S-Ranks on all other difficulties except Heaven or Hell. If you go for platinum there’s no telling how long it will take since it’s entirely skill dependent. Without Hell and Hell you can still earn 82% trophies which will be the endpoint for most players and takes about 30 hours to do. Even just beating Hell and Hell is hard enough but doing it without a single hit is a true challenge. Enemies not only have much more health and kill you instantly, they also attack faster, more enemies spawn, stronger enemy types spawn earlier in the game. To make things even worse, you aren’t allowed to use the Infinite Devil Trigger unlock because it reduces ranks by -80% and makes S-rank unobtainable. To get an S-Rank the only option is to not take a single hit. If you die 3 times you have to replay the mission from the start, there are no checkpoints. You can’t revive with red orbs or your gold orbs like you do on lower difficulties. Furthermore, the game grants you only 3 retries per mission. If you take only a single hit it will void the S-Rank since you lose the no-hits and no-continues damage.
Hell and Hell difficulty means you die in one single hit while enemies have the same amount of health as in Son of Sparda (which is 4 times the health they have on Human difficulty).
What makes it so challenging is that you must gain S-Ranks on Hell and Hell difficulty. Welcome to the Devil May Cry 5 (DmC5) Trophy Guide! The first thing you’re probably wondering is why this platinum is a 10/10 difficulty.
