That's not "suit", that's basic demon form, his "true nature".
Etrigan being weak to holy water (both as demon and Jason Blood) is Wiki info, once again. I'll dig the scan.
Also, friggin' Blue Devil was able to do some damage to Etrigan on magical front. High level demon (halfblood, but still high level) channeling magical energy through his weapons is definetely nothing to snort at.
Just a low level example of channeling energy via sword. That was 18years old Dante, and he wasn't trying to do this damage on purpose - just being pissed off after having bad dream.
And here's more... substantial cut.

In DMC, even full blooded demons can go to the church. Trish would be one example since she did go to the church in order to fight Lady.

Like Lobo. Who has no weakness to fire or magic.
Really, the idea that someone who hangs with DC Top Tiers can be speedblitzed by Dante who is only a few times the speed of sound at best is ridiculous.

Guys asked for good analysis - I gave it to them. I didn't touch Etrigan's weakness to iron that breaks common knowledge rule (holy water weakness is obvious, ferrofobia for demons is nonexistant in DMC-verse) and think 6-7/10 outcome is OK, given speed and agility advantage, superhuman aim and weakness exploitation via holy water.

Again, Despero, Kovikt, Titus, Solomon Grundy, The General, Shaggy man, Kalibak, Mongul Jr, Mongul, along with EVERY high tier brick has stood up to DC finest and almost NONE of them has displayed bullet timing speed.
Stop using who a person fight as evidence of super speed because if that was the case, Gladiator has on panel evidence of flying 100 times the speed of light and he has been tagged by Colossus and out right gotten that a** whipped by Hulk.
Now if you can show me etrigan keeping up with someone like flash, someone that use his speed ALL OF THE TIME, then I would be impressed.

Is this you admitting those arguments that you attempted to use to boost DBZ characters against Superman were crap? If so bravo.

NNOOOO, I never said Superman doesnt have combat speed but what I did say is that using Superman as evidence of a person having super speed is false. Hell, early this year in Superman/Batman, Batman flipped a blitzing, AMPED, Superman on his a** and admitted that Superman brute strength and combat skill is his weakness so I guess that means that Batman is a speedster as well. Almost every superhuman in DCU has stood up to Superman (they didnt do great but they seen him and reacted to him during combat) during combat and Superman has faced almost EVERYONE in a combat scenerio but again, that doesnt mean that they are speedsters. Hawkman has stood up to Black Adam who has on panel showings of running mach 500... so I guess that also mean that Hawkman is a speedster as well.
Thats why we use speed feats because again, Hulk alone has faced some of the most powerful people that has nano second speed feats so I guess we can say since he has faced, Surfer, Gladiator, Hyperion, Nova, along with thousands of others that have speed feats, Hulk is just as fast. 😕
