PLEASE DO NOT POST TILL I SAY YOU CAN, THANK YOU!

How do I unlock Bloody Palace?
You must complete Devil Hunter mode and Bloody Palace will become available to select from the Mission Menu.

What is Bloody Palace?
Bloody Palace is a marathon time attack mode in which you battle through 101 floors to try and clear all of them. You can not use Items or save while doing this mode. You will need around three hours of free time in order to have a good shot at clearing it.

How much time do I have to try and clear it?
You are given two minutes (2:00:00) to clear all 101 floors.

Only two minutes?!? How the **** is that even possible?
You are given two minutes to start with, but you can earn more by defeating enemies and clearing floors. Depending on your style meter at the time of the kill on a enemy a percentage is added to their base amount, that follows this pattern.

Base Amount - XX.XX
DEADLY - +10% Base
CARNAGE - +20% Base
BRUTAL - +30% Base
ATOMIC - +40% Base
SMOKIN’ - +50% Base
SMOKIN’ STYLE - +75% Base
SMOKIN’ SICK STYLE - +100% Base


Below is a list of enemies and how many seconds they add to your remaining time when you defeat them.

Gladius, Chimera Seeds(*)
Base - 2.00
D - 2.12
C - 2.24
B - 2.36
A - 2.48
S - 3.00
SS - 3.30
SSS - 4.00

Scarecrow (Arm/Leg), Basilisk
Base - 5.00
D -5.30
C - 6.00
B - 6.30
A - 7.00
S - 7.30
SS - 8.45
SSS - 10.00

Frost, Assault, Mephisto, Bianco Angelo(**)
Base - 10.00
D - 11.00
C - 12.00
B - 13.00
A - 14.00
S - 15.00
SS - 17.30

Mega Scarecrow, Cutlass
Base - 15.00
D - 16.30
C - 18.00
B - 19.30
A - 21.00
S - 22.30
SS - 26.15
SSS - 30.00

Alto Angelo, Faust
Base - 20.00
D - 22.00
C - 24.00
B - 26.00
A - 28.00
S - 30.00
SS - 35.00
SSS - 40.00

Blitz(***)
Base - 30.00
D - 33.00
C - 36.00
B - 39.00
A - 42.00
S - 45.00
SS - 52.30
SSS - 60.00

* - If you use Nero’s Buster attack to rip them apart you will get their base amount, regardless of style rank.
** - If an Alto Angelo uses them to kamikaze at you, you will get their base amount, regardless of style rank.
*** - If Blitz explodes by himself you will get his base amount regardless of style rank. You only get what the style rank was on at the time of the kill for Blitz. If you break his shield at Atomic, you will get Atomic seconds added on and not SSS like it shows since he was “technically” dead at Atomic.


Clearing a floor adds more seconds to your remaining time.
Floors 1 - 19 adds 15 seconds for clearing, and 30 if you received no damage on it.
Floors 21 - 39, 41 - 59, 61 - 79, and 81 - 99 adds 10 seconds for clearing, and 20 if you received no damage on it.
Floors 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 are boss battle floors. When you enter that floor two minutes are added to your remaining time and 30 seconds if you clear it, 60 seconds if you took no damage.
Floor 101 adds five minutes to your remaining time when you enter it, 60 seconds for clearing it, and two minutes if you took no damage.


All in all, you need to get your style meter high, avoid as much damage as you can, and defeat enemies quickly in order to survive or last long enough in this mode to complete it.

Some Tips in dealing with Lesser Demons (These are for Nero)
Scarecrows - They have a tendency to attack when you don't expect it, but are easily dealt with. Streak and Charge Shot level 3 to hit hordes of them for an easy time. If you are up against a horde of them run away and snatch them to grab a group of them to hit with Red Queen and repeat.

Assaults - These guys are fast and very mobile, so keeping them grouped together are helpful for killing all of them at once. EX3 Streak and Double Downs work great against them. Throwing in Charge Shot Level 3's and activating Devil Trigger to break their shields is helpful for destroying their defenses and killing them before they can Devil Trigger.

Frost - These guys can get annoying due to the fact that they like to not get stunned and counter attack. Charge Shot level 3’s work great against them, and keeps one busy while you attack the other. EX3’s really are the best things to stun them. Using High Roller is good to keep them off their feet so they are unable to counter attack.

Basilisks - The best way to handle them when there’s more than one, is just attacking one, while keeping the camera off the others. Without them in view of the camera they don’t attack (This goes for any enemy).

Gladius - The only advantage these guys have are that they attack when you’re mid combo. Just dodge, or use Devil Trigger activation to avoid damage. You can Charge Shot level 3 to kill one instantly.

Blitz - Dodge him when he’s flying around and use Charge Shots till his shield is down, then Devil Trigger, Buster him, Streak right after the buster ends, Buster him again, Streak again, and then Buster him again, if you were charging a shot up fire that after the third buster and swing Red Queen awhile and when he is changing into his red form fire one more charge shot to kill him.

Bianco Angelos - Not much to say here. Just keep attacking them from behind. If you have the chance to not be attacked by the other then use buster.

Mega Scarecrows - Same as scarecrows pretty much. Just make sure to avoid their blade after killing one.

Mephistos - These guys are fairly easy. They’re only troubling when one attacks while you’re fighting the others. Their finger jab move is the easiest to predict, (They circle you, their eyes glow, and they then make a high pitched noise). They only take 3 snatches, and 1 buster to eliminate their cloak. Using Charge Shot’s also help destroy their cloak and cause a little damage in the process.

Fausts - They’re just a little tougher than a Mephisto. It takes longer to eliminate their cloak. Their attacks are just a little different from a Mephisto and harder to predict. Just keep an eye out for them to show their red fingers, that’s when they will be attacking. They will also surround you in what can pretty much be called summoned swords. It’s very easy to avoid this.

Alto Angelos - Really, these guys are just a little tougher than a Bianco. It takes a little more to stun them, so be careful attacking their front while they’re preparing an attack. If they keep flying away, then just shoot them down with a Charge Shot, or use grim grip to get closer and attack them with Aerial Rave. When attacking them and they put up their shield Buster it, it should severely weaken their shield, after three Busters their shield should break leaving them wide open for attacks.

Cutlass - Just wait for one to launch out of the ground and drop it with a Charge Shot or lock-on when their swimming and fire a Charge Shot level 3 to knock them out of the ground. Either keep the other Cutlass out of view of the camera as best as you can, or just keep an eye on them so you’ll know when to dodge their launches out of the floor.

Chimera-Scarecrow and Assault - Just fight cautiously against the infected Scarecrow and Assault units. Charge Shot level 3 eliminates the blades from attacking once they come out. Maximum Bet is useful here for attacking them with needing to be close. It does a decent amount of damage and has a good range against multiple enemies.

Chimera Seeds - You can Snatch and Buster them to instantly kill them or just attack normally.

I don’t list bosses because you need to find your own way of dealing with them, since there are a lot of things you can do to fight one and you should get your own style and tactics for them by using what you read in other posts and fighting them yourself.


I would recommend using Nero first to complete Bloody Palace for two reasons:
1) He has the perfect training spots. (Mission 19 for bosses)
2) The Devil Bringer can kill some enemies easily. (Blitz, Gladius, Chimera Seeds)


I would like to thank Shinso_Shikai for giving me his enemy notes so I wouldn’t have to do that much more work.

Lastly butterfly_2689 for helping me double check the enemy floor by floor count and making sure they were accurate.

YOU MAY POST NOW AND LEAVE TIPS FOR OTHER USERS WHO READ THIS OR ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY, THANKS FOR READING

Do these enemies really become DMD difficulty? I just can't believe that, since they are so much easier than in DMD.

It's like DMC3. They DT, but they're still actually lower difficulty AI and health.
