Thought I would never ask......

Most certainly a rare occasion, but i am asking for some advice on a certain part of NGB. I am playing the 100 fiend challenge on VH next to muramasas shop in Tairon. it consists of Red and Black Ninjas, and so far Beserkers. Problem is, the Beserkers are owing me. I always run out of Elixers and when i hit around 75 kills the beserkers just well maim me. I am using level art of inazuma's with UF/TDS/Dabilahro. I feel so underpowered without Intercept against the Beserkers, and because of the VH difficulty they take more hits to kill. I am finding that the Dabilahro is more effective against the Beserkers than the UF so far. Calling other master ninja's for assistance..

You should get the DDB first. Of course, this is advice from someobody who skipped the challenge.

You get the DDB for 50 scarabs at any point on Hard and above. The Ninja Gaiden arcade item doesn't exist beyond Dog/Normal.

Dabilahro UTs on the Ninjas then Flails/Potency/Ripping Thunder on the Berserkers. As long as you know how to roll-cancel, they're not that hard.

Umm... I thought there was only 49 Scarabs on Hard to begin with?

Anyways, for the Challenge just use Reverse Wind to avoid the Berserkers attack and bust them with a Gleaming Blade with the TDS. (If you have to, go get the TDS and immediately come back to finish the Challenge. If you're fast you should get the Chapter Time Bonus.)

Set your camera to free mode and try to keep one Berserker on the screen at all times. This will prevent the others from doing their flame traps and shooting fireballs at you. Berserkers are much easier when you fight them 1v1.

Yep, just do what Edge and Sabotage said and you should be fine. If you need some video help heres how I beat the GBC on MN but there are still 40 Berserkers at the end so its basically the same for that part.

Thanks Guys, when you isolate the besrekers i noticed that the others back off. My technique was pretty much that but ive been killled twice now at 93 kills. Just a bit more pratice, but appreciate the tips. I miss intercept....

The intercept was perfect for the beserkers, instead now you have to do the Y+Forward attack and wind roll. It takes so much longer. Ah well, hones the skills i guess

I have a hard time with their moves other than the shoulder butt so I use X+A, A on them. I jump on their head to stun them and then do the Ripping Thunder (->YYY) with the Flails. The DDB makes the Challenge so much easier but you are supposed to fight it in CH13. I have a video of it showing the X+A, A at IW's site but Weibull's video is better.

well here is what i do i first target the weakest and block the strongist then once i kill the weakest i go after the 2nd strongest and well for the berzerkers i suggest you work on your dodging before you do that challenge cause once you are better in dodging and blocking you will win it
