    Against Alma, that snow worm thingy you encounter in the caverns and again in Chapter 18, and the satyr demon. All of them give you very narrow window to attack when they are trying to get up, so you just don't have enough time to go medieval with Dabilahro and perform a full Flaming Hell Slash. I found 3rd level DC/TF combos, such as Great Dragon Slayer and Spinning Fire Dragon to deal the most damage in the time frame you are given.
    Bugger. I like tricky weapons. I can't even begin to describe how much fun I had with Nevan in DMC3.

    I have hopes for Sigma 2, as both girls don't seem to be tank-ish types. We'll see.

    Any other slashers to keep my eyes on? I already know of DMC and God Hand. Bayonetta looks pretty promising as well.
