Word of caution: I was changing Kasumi's hairstyle and my game suddenly froze (Home button wouldn't work either).
It could have been my machine acting up, but it may be something in the game, too, as it was the first time I tried that.

If anyone encounters a similar thing, let me know.

Well, yeah, of course not. Like I said, NG:B was designed with the idea you avoid damage altogether. It would be the most feasible to do a "no damage" run on.

That's because the dodge in NGB was invincible all the way through the animation lol.

I've done it several times on the Xbox version, including rapidly and looking at them before moving on and never had that problem. Weird. I don't really feel like going through the unlock process on my PS3 to test honestly...

I just hope they fixed the slide dodge, doubt they will but im hoping :p

I managed to do ayanes chapter without damage but not in 1 go so its not even worth posting

Im a just find a strategy on how to beat the mages without spaming UT

so far the dual katana's TTTT move works really well against them

tips on beating Ayane chapter with Hayabusa? Those foos dodge everything.

I know for a fact that you can stun the white terrorists with a shuriken and get a izuna drop every time

Not sure about the rest of the enemies

I also know once the enemies clothing is all red they won't dodge any of your moves

doesnt help that even if they don't dodge Ayane will do it for them

the biggest problem im having for the alchemist now is the dam drop kicks they keep doing ,break your guard and launch your ass

Have full ninpo when going the match, right when they spawn launch a ut, don't run away and just keep recharging after each UT

that's what I do and i never die and the whole battle takes about 30 seconds lol

Or if you still can't do that

right after they launch those white fireballs at you get close and charge a ut

They are all black.. The last set of black guys that throw blocks at you.

Oh your talking about the mages

Just go in with full ninpo and don't stop charging UT, always stay close to them, and don't be afraid if they hit you with there sword as is won't cancel your charge and doesn't do much damage

I actually got S rank in that chapter's MN mode with Ryu. If you have ninpo, great, use it, but otherwise just charge your UTs just like on the white alchemists. Typically after Ryu's finishes, they will immediately go for a charge sweep upon rising. Good news! The charge's range is just within UT dash reach, and the move takes long enough you can just charge all over again (of course if the other guys are being annoying they'll intercept you).
That's really all I can recommend. The alchemists are stupid and the tactic is always the same: UT spam.

If you don't like UTs like me, too bad. That's really the only way I've found to dispatch of them successfully.

You can fight them with hit and run tactics NG3 style, but it's a pain in the ass and you're almost guaranteed to take a bit hit at some point and die. I avoided UT spamming until the MN runs and then absolutely had to.

cool. I'll try the UT thingy. I tried the hit and run thingy, but always get hit by a damn tetris block. Off to play now..

Just an update, you guys may have noticed we now have our new sub-forum for Ninja Gaiden (under General Discussion). Feel free to make new threads but if the discussion falls under kind of a broader Ninja Gaiden thought, toss it in this thread. Try not to make obscure threads that will die in two posts, though. The whole reason I asked Mr. Wah to hook us up is that we have quite a few passionate, frequently posting NG fans and the other thread finally got to the point where even I had to admit it wasn't gonna be enough.

Let's goooooooo.

I was actually thinking about picking up NGΣ2 because of the video I posted earlier. There's just certain things I like more in that game. Are there big specific changes that I won't like about it vs if I bought NG2 instead?

NGS2 limits 4 enemies on screen, no gore, shop system is ruined and you are limited to when you can upgrade your weapon
That's about it, if you get ngs2 hit me up on team missions

Only 4? How long do I have to wait to upgrade the Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang to lvl 3?
