Reviving this a bit. I'm on Chapter 4. I haven't gotten truly stuck on anything yet. Lunar makes this difficulty a lot more passable. The only part that nearly had me tossing my controller was the beginning of level 2...wow. That's far too many rather tough encounters in a row. The cerberus dogs were a little much. And the explosive arrow ninjas annoyed me to the point I actually used ninpo to kill them because I was sick of surviving some intense fights only to get blown up because I can't dodge efficiently on the water.

Well, ok, I'm stuck. Chapter 11, the 3 spider fight with the purple IS ninjas right after you get the windmill.

Any tips? I'm almost considering spamming the Piercing void ninpo.

On Mentor I spammed 360 Lunar UT over and over and never got hit. Same encounter just they do more damage. It should work. Flip into the area and start charging it and you should get a full charge before you have to release when the doors slam shut, then jump on one enemy, stun him, mid-air Izuna for the essence, the spam away. Watch my vid on the leaderboards. I did something similar on the level 2 miniboss on MN.

Thanks Cyber, passed on the first try tonight, and just finished up Chapter 12. Well, I'm on Mentor but looks like I'll be starting MN soon.

And yeah, you're Chapter 2 vid is very nice. That is pretty sweet.

Yeah, the NG leaderboards really aren't condusive to doing anything in a speedy manner.

Or any normal manner at all.

Yeah, and the top guys are just farming machines to boost their score. I really wish it had a better way to filter the scores.

I noticed that too. The number one guy just farmed for 20min I was looking forward to some good moves. I'll look for your guys videos and get some tips.

How do i get to the firsts of leaderboards faster?

I scroll through 3 sets of scores (i'm at 5000) and the game crashes while loading...

My video perfectly shows the way to beast on any encounter on MN, so feel free to add me. It's quicker to get to my vid. Oh, and the quickest way to get to the top is to press X a couple times, one of the filters just pops to the top of the list.

Feel free to add me as well. My vid kind of stinks, just uploaded my first fight on MN. I don't take much damage, but still, not a very impressive vid. I'm going to be filming most of my MN run though, so I'll be updating it frequently.

There has to be one sure-fire way to kill the explosive kunai ninja!
On any difficulty besides warrior Ninja gaiden should be changed to explosion gaiden!
Everything blows up!
The enemys grab you and blow up!
They throw things that blow up!
They shoot things that blow up!
They cast magic that blows up!
Mines blow up!
Dogs blow up!
So I ask you. Is there a way to kill then explosive kunai Ninja's guaranteed victory?

Kinda off topic: Any tips for someone starting the path of the Mentor? I'm at chapter 1, and I'm not doing amazingly, (DAMN ALL ROCKET AND INCENDIAR SHURIKEN SOLDIERS TO HELL!!!!), but I'm grazing by, I looked at Cyber's video and it was awesome, he rocks. But until I get the lunar and DS to Lvl 2 I can't do the Izuna Drop, so I've just been spamming Flying Swallows and getting UT's whenever I can.

Flying swallow is a scroll on MN, so good luck with that when you get there, lol. Thanks for the props, but you don't need to use the in-air Izuna with the Lunar. Lunar owns everything with the 360 ET or UT. Just start messing with it and while you're experimenting you'll earn plenty of yellow essence to power it up.
