Optimal EX Attack Usage

Learn the optimal EX attack strategies for Cuphead's The Delicious Last Course DLC. Master Ms. Chalice's Supers and new weapon combos for every boss fight and achievement.

This guide section focuses on the optimal use of EX Attacks and Super Arts in Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course. While the source text primarily details achievements and boss strategies, understanding EX attack mechanics is crucial for achieving high ranks and completing challenges.

Key Strategies for EX Attacks and Supers:

• Ms. Chalice's Super Arts: Super Art I is highlighted as particularly effective for its vertical beam, useful against bosses like the Announcer Snail and Psycarrot. Utilizing these Supers is essential for achievements like "The Golden Touch."
• New DLC Weapons: Weapons such as Converge, Crackshot, and Twist-Up are beneficial for various trophies, including "Decadent" and "Ranger." Their EX variants can significantly alter combat flow.
• Achievement-Specific EX Usage: Several achievements require specific EX or Super Art usage. For instance, "The Golden Touch" mandates defeating a boss with a Ms. Chalice Super Art.
• General Combat Tips: While not explicitly detailing EX attack timing, the guide implies their importance for achieving A-Ranks and S-Ranks, which require defeating bosses quickly, with high HP, and performing parries and special attacks. Efficient use of EX attacks contributes to these metrics.
• Secret Charm Interactions: The Cursed Relic and its upgraded form, the Divine Relic, introduce unique mechanics. While they don't directly relate to EX attacks, mastering their random weapon assignments and enhanced abilities is part of optimizing gameplay for secret achievements like "A Horrible Night To Have A Curse" and "Paladin."
