Dante’s Best Skills to Unlock First in DMC 5
1. Stinger
It’s Nero’s Streak, but for Dante. Close the gap fast and strike your enemies while they’re off guard.
2. Speed
Yep, it’s the same as Nero’s Speed. Get places faster!
3. Every Level 2 Style Upgrade (Or Just Your Favorite)
You don’t have to switch between Dante’s styles, so you could only upgrade your favorite. However, upgrading them all to at least level 2 will give you a great feel for what they’re all really capable of. They’re not too expensive and give each style extra abilities!
4. Million Stab
This is a great follow up to Stinger. After closing the gap, you can then unleash a series of stabs holding Y, dealing great damage to a single enemy while building combos.
5. Trigger Heart
Dante’s Devil Trigger is amazing – it increases his damage output and heals him, so anything that can make that better is fantastic! Trigger Heart makes it so Dante’s Devil Trigger gauge depletes slower.
6. Enemy Step
This is just as useful with Dante as it is with Nero – it helps Dante stay aloft in the air with enemies, so he can both deal great single-target damage while simultaneously avoiding threats from below.
Honorable Mentions:
Dante has a huge number of skills to him. Most of the first skills on each of his unique weapon’s lists are worth at least testing out, like Cavaliere’s Cross Line and Balrog’s Bantam Revenge,
