Training / Tutorial
I think this is harder than in DOA5 due to some changes in the system. Most of them are obvious but I have some advice for specific ones:
8.4 Attacks that Cause Fatal Stun - Part IIThe first kick (
) has to cause a fatal stun. Press the input when Kasumi starts moving. If you successfully landed it you will hear a distinct sound effect (woosh) and a yellow "Fatal Stun" text appears on the right under Kasumi's health bar. Then quickly input the second kick.
10.1 Break HoldsThe second hit is the easiest to counter (Diego coming down with his elbow). As for the mission: don't do anything. Just stand there until he starts his fatal rush then counter it. I did a couple of restarts, he does it at least 3 times before you health bar is depleted. You have infinite special here so just put your fingers on the
and wait for it.
18.1 Cutting a ChainThis extremely annoying because you have to fish for specific counters with a limited health pool and the AI fights properly. Other than doing the obvious and trying to counter him, always have your blue bars filled up (he doesn't block much so you can beat him up easily). The super counter automatically catches any hit from any direction so if your time it right it is a free point. You will still hate this one for sure.
27.7 Close Hit Follow-upsI spent a lot of time on this before I realized no matter how quickly I land the final hit (
) it never registers because it has to be a close hit and Kasumi as a lightweight bounces away from you quickly. The solution is laughably easy: just push her to the wall and do the combo there. The obstacle won't let her fly away and nets you the close hit.
If you have trouble with anything else then let me know and I put up a guide for it as well.
