DmC: Devil May Cry Guide (Mission 17:The Furnace of Souls)

Mission 17 is the approach to Mundus’ lair.  Fire will shoot jump in between the jumps on the occasion, so wait until it subsides and go one, maybe two jumps at a time.  Double jump to the first platform, then double jump/angel boost to the next one.  Now, angel lift then angel boost to get to the next platform.  After another double jump/angel lift you will face a frost knight and a hell knight.  If you uppercut the hell knight close enough to the edge he will fall off of the platform giving you an easy kill.  Deal with the front knight and move one.

A double jump/angel boost will get you to the next platform and if you hurry you can do a single jump/angel boost to the next platform before the fire.  Now, angel lift/angel boost and angel lift again to reach the next platform.  Here you will face a handful of stygian and a butcher.  Deal with the stygian switching between Rebellion and Osiris, then attack the butcher.  After that group, you’ll have a second round, which consists of a witch and a another butcher.  Use Aquila on the witcher, then use demon pull to get her close.  After doing this twice, take care of the butcher.

If you need to grab health, there should be some on one of the walls.  Now double jump/angel boost to the nearest platform.  Wait for the fire then single jump/angel boost to the closer one on your left.  Then use demon pull to get the next platform in line, use another double jump/angel boost to get yourself to that platform. Now use demon pull to get some rock out of the way, revealing another angel lift.  Use the angel lift followed by angel boost to get to the next platform.  This can be a bit tricky, as aiming too far right will knock Dante into the abyss.  Make sure your analogue stick is pointed in the middle of the arch or Dante won’t make the jump.

Facing the direction you landed, take a left and follow the platform to its edge.  Here, do a single jump/angel boost to get to the next platform.  On this platform you will face a ravager and a hell knight.  Take care of the ravager quickly, using demon pull and a demon weapon to knock him into the fire, then handle the hell knight.  After they are done, use angel lift, then demon pull to move the next angel lift marker into place.  Do this again and you will land on the next platform.

Here, use angel lift three times.  On the next platform, kill the stygian single jump/angle boost to the next platform.  A couple more single jump/angel boosts and you’ll see an angel lift marker.  Use the marker and the boost ring to reach the next platform.  Now, repeat this again and then use angel lift.  From this platform, jump onto the floating bridge and run across.  At the end of the second piece use Aquila to clear a spot to pull yourself to, then use angel lift.  Now, double jump/angle boost to the next platform and use demon pull to clear a landing spot.  Now use double jump/angel boost to reach the arena platform.

Any point during this fight is a good spot to use devil trigger.  First you’ll take on a tyrant and a witch.  Use Aquila on the witch to take down her shield then finish her off. Finish of the tyrant by avoid his attacks and demon pulling him from behind.  Now you’ll face a drekavac and a tyrant.  Take out the tyrant first, while trying to keep your distance from the drekavac.  After that duo, you’ll get a drekavac and a witch.  Take out the witch first, same as before, then deal with the drekavac.

After finishing your enemies use angel lift/angel boost, do this four times to reach the next platform.  Now, use ange lift twice, then add an angel boost to the angel lift, then angel boost to the boost ring to reach the next platform.  Here, use angel lift one more time to finish the mission.
