Tips
  • Utilize the Pulley's Butterfly accessory to negate damage taken, making Pure Platinum much more achievable.
  • Master the Lieutenant Kilgore bug with Durga for massive damage and combo point generation.
  • If you fail a verse, use the in-game save system to quit to the title screen and reload from the last checkpoint to retry without restarting the entire chapter.
  • Prioritize keeping your combo multiplier high by consistently attacking and using gunshots or taunts during lulls.
  • Experiment with different weapon combinations to find what works best for your playstyle and the specific challenges of each verse.
