The quicktime events for armstrong were so satisfying in my first playthrough because they did so much fckin damage compared to what i did in normal gameplay
The mastery of the use of I-frames baffles me, the way you do it is amazing to watch. as somebody who has never utilized I-frames and only used parrying as my main defense, it's amazing to see a man do what I can't.
@@fatassblower It also slows down time even further in Ripper Mode. Blade Mode on M+KB is finicky, so I use the extra time with Ripper Mode to build combos and to give me enough time to align the blade during the debris sections.
2:13 I feel so betrayed because I thought they were just destroyed and I couldn’t get health from them. I have a love-hate relationship with this game.
I recommend using the pincer blades (Maxed w/skills) more often during Excelsus to do a lot of damage. Either way, fantastic job. Another tip: Try getting the Infinity Wig B so that you can go Ripper Mode forever during Excelsus and Armstrong. ANOTHER TIP: Don't use Raiden's Standard Body for Armstrong's final battle since everything in Blade mode is orange and it's difficult to cut the debris that Armstrong throws at you (the skin shown here is fine) srry for the rant, just sharing some tips that could've been useful when I did this 11:46 I just realized how much damage you actually do in this (and all) QTE.
I don't use the Pincer Blades that often for the very reason you listed. It gets boring just smacking things with them and dealing tons of damage. Not to mention getting the 80-hit combo would be far more challenging. I have the wigs. They're boring. I enjoy having to be careful with my Ripper mode and deciding when to use it for utility vs when to use it for a burst of extra damage. As for the skin, it has no buffs. Nothing about it is different than the standard skin other than how Raiden looks.
"Like my ride? Worth every penny!" Mmm, yes, very worth it until a cyborg rips it apart. Probably wanna invest in a safety harness and airbag in case a cyborg flips your excelsus.
Me trying to jump over armstrongs grapple move That bastard suddenly was infront of me in mid air still in the charging animation and grabbed me out of the air After that I got an air combat trauma
It's funny how I found really simple and enjoyable doing no damage against both the metal gear and Armstrong without restarting (revengeance) , but I can't even do rank A against Armstrong in the dlc in fucking normal
same i suppose Sam needs to be played much, much proffesionaly like Devil may cry 5 SSS level like seriously, remembering when you can parry, when the taunt is over and somehow ending it in a minute. a fucking minute
@@darealbingoxz1142 it's also because armstrong in the dlc is just broken and it's op. He can literally levitate and reach you even if you dodge with that stupid charge and grab attacks... And he spams them like nothing. Also, a big problem that mgr has is that your charged attack can be easily stopped, unlike, for example, bloodborne, where once you have finished to charge your attack it cannot be stopped unless you die.
Sam's movement is nice, but his moveset is much trickier to use well. Combine that with the final boss of the base game being your opponent, and the weird things going on with his sam dlc exclusive charge and you get a seriously difficult battle. I feel like they must have messed something up when coding for his new dashing attack, because the turn radius on it and the things it does to the camera when it abuses that abnormal turn radius screams "unfortunate developer who literally didn't have the time to fix this bug."

Brilliantly played does your Fuel bar drain at a set rate due in QTE's like the end part? Odd because you needed the slower drain speed from ripper mode to cut though the rubble. how did you mange the excelsus fights with Armstrong when you're on top of him no matter how many fights I see of those sections it always feels like 50% luck 50% Skill.
@@Hoodie_nii All it really is is evade and jump. I jump over his grab attack and evade everything else. I try to keep some distance from him so he has to lunge since he's slow to turn and use another attack afterwards. If you're too close after dodging, he can swipe at you and transition into another attack rather fast.
@@Hoodie_nii on revengeance difficulty he has an extra move iirc, but you can avoid everything he's got by dodging at a specific timing. Sometimes you need to dodge twice but there's plenty of time. Just don't be next to him all the time, don't get trapped in a corner, and don't try to damage him too much (it can make you transition to the next phase the first time you get hit - which ends your no-damage run by autosaving)
How did you get reasonable time to press the button before punching Armstrong in his 3rd phase? (whenever I play it gives me less than a second to do it)
@@VirtuallyInsaneBlues They can actually be different. The only QTE in Armstrong's 3rd phase that's always the same is the final QTE section to kill him. From what I've seen, the other QTEs in that Phase can be Spacebar, F, Left Mouse button, or Right Mouse button. Whenever I activate one of those QTEs, I just hover my fingers over the buttons so I'm prepared.
8:58 Standing here, I realize you were just like me trying to make history But who's to judge the right from wrong? When our guard is down, I think we'll both agree That violence breeds violence But in the end it has to be this way
I learned this from watching other videos but once armstrong is below 20%, you don't need to retrieve the sword. Raiden will automatically retrieve the sword during the final QTE if he doesn't have it already. BTW, this fight is so much better without wig B cheese. I appreciate you doing this challenge the right way unlike some other commenters.
In terms of boss difficulty, for me it goes: 1. Mistral (Very Easy) 2. Sundowner (Easy) 3. MG Excelsus (Easy) 4. Monsoon (Normal) 5. Sam (Hard) 6. Senator (Harder) The reason I list Senator has “Harder” and not “Very Hard” is because while he is the toughest boss in the game, comparing him to Sam in difficulty he isn’t all that much more challenging. Sam is at level with Raiden in terms of offensive and defensive capabilities. Being able to play it slow and more counter focused while also able to speed it up and put the pressure on you. Senator Relies on Power and Aggression which makes him more predictable and easy to set up counters. Don’t underestimate him though because he can take out 100% of your health in 4 hits, causing you to be at a disadvantage or dead, early in the fight.
I Got s rank on senator on revengeance difficulty and my highest combo was him (İn 700 hits i dont remember) but i Got B rank on excelsus whats wrong with me Edit after 2 month: my highest combo on revengeance senator was 798 and i got 10200 points on that fight and i currently quit mgrr, good luck to the people Who is gonna start i finished with 6 swords, and complete 30% vr missions and get red armor, its the Best

Which attacks are you losing health on? You can't block/parry the overhead strikes from Excelsus. You have to either avoid them entirely or use Offense Defense.
@@sev0n385 all of them cause damage even if you parry them. Some can be dodged (like ninja-running when he uses both arms from the sides), but it's impossible to dodge them all 🤔. I managed to win the fight but it's weird to see that you don't lose health when parrying, for example, the arms.
@@amivaleo So one thing I need to point out is that I never parry any of Excelsus' attacks. I use Offense Defense. It's more like an Evade that gives you a small window of i-frames.
How does your blade mode go down so slowly in the qte? I lose all my energy in a second for some reason. Had to turn on infinite wig just to have enough time to slash the rocks.

...Also that Armstrong's pants magically don't disappear from all the explosions and debris falling on him, maybe if he had the same material for his shirt he'd still be alive.
Suspension of disbelief is plentiful in Metal Gear.
@@sev0n385 Well I guess the obvious move would have been for Armstrong to yeet the sword to the moon too
Does anyone know how to get that raiden body?
It's a DLC skin that comes standard on the Steam version of MGRR.
3:17 how come he didnt jump over them
I feel more comfortable doing Offense Defense for that attack rather than jumping over.
my blade mode keeps cancelling in the armstrong qte where he throws parts of the metal gear at you how do you avoid this?
I'm not sure as I've never run into this issue. Are you letting go of the button or running out of energy partway through?
@@sev0n385 im not letting go of the blade mode but it seems like I have to use wasd while turning my blademode or it just cancels itself out
@@sev0n385 that and moving the mouse so suddenly cancels it for me
