The demon-hunting business has been running quiet, so Dante decides to take a quick walk. While it seemed the walk seemed quiet, but he heard screaming and noticrd blood and guts spewing everywhere.
Shocked at the horrific scene, he rushes to see what is going on. He sees a flood of bodies everywhere, he then sees a man in black. Angered at this, he pulls out ebony and Ivory, and rushes at the mysterious man.
The man in black droppes a dead woman. And prepares to face the silver haired man...
Yes. Darkness is from TopCow comics. And even despite that, fighting Darkness for Dante would be like fighting brutal advanced version of Doppelganger or Nightmare.
Why?Comics Darkness is not that uber, and by the way, game version seemed to have more...odd powers- like turning regular humans into darklings etc...but the only thing is clear- he afraids of light-related powers. So Quicksilver and repeatedly use Beowulf's (light-related weapon) Volcano move on Darkness FTW.
The only truly light-based weapon in Dante's arsenal is Beowulf, so Quicksilver+Zodiac\Volcano to rip Darkness' darkness away and then continue with Tornado to beat the hell out of him is the best strategy against classic Darkness.
Alastor is electricity-based one, but it gives Dante the ability to fly, just as any other electricity-based Devil Arm (i.e. Nevan). Though Darkness was damaged by non-light-related things in his carrier- the thing is to trick him into believing they are light-related.
I also think about using Doppelganger when equipped with Beowulf for more damage.
Beowulf isn't a sword- it's gauntets and greaves, empowered with light power as well as adding extra force to his punches and kicks when Dante fights hand-to-hand.
It's impossible in gameplay to use two weapons at once (unless weapons come as set i.e. Agni&Rudra, Ebony&Ivory), but you can switch between them on the move...and logically speaking, since Alastor is a sword and Beowulf is a set of gauntlets and greaves, it's theoretically possible to use them at once.
Though...Quicksilver to freeze Darkness in time and good beating with Beowulf for the win. Estacado is just a regular human gunslinger once his Darkness form is damaged.
