Devil May Cry 5 (DMC 5) - Artemis Boss Guide (2nd Encounter)

A boss guide on Artemis 2nd Encounter in Devil May Cry 5, including the boss' attacks, behavior, and strategies on defeating it.

Artemis (2nd Encounter)

Attacks

Forward Beam

Artemis folds its hands on its chest and its wings glow bright. This laser beam shoots vertically, so use Farthest Move.

Fan Beam

Artemis launches scattered laser beams. You can dodge them either with Farthest Move, Griffon’s Switchback, or a normal jump.

Fan Beam 2

A variation of Fan Beam, this time Artemis shoots lasers from above and below. Either a Farthest Move or Switchback will be enough to dodge it.

Overhead Beam

Beams will start to pour down from overhead. Either run away or use Farthest Move.

Enlarged Forward Beam

Artemis will unleash a powerful beam from its chest which lasts for a few more seconds than other beams. Perform multiple Farthest Moves to evade the blast.

Rush

Artemis charges head-on. If this attack approaches a dead end, Artemis will turn and continue charging for a period of time. Get out of its reach with Farthest Move.

Strategy

Be sure to fill up your Devil Trigger gauge with either Griffon or Shadow to summon Nightmare. In Griffon’s case, summon Nightmare to distract it while dealing damage and have Griffon’s ranged attacks support Nightmare.

Dodge the Laser Beams

Since Artemis’ attacks are mostly ranged, Farthest Move is vital in dodging. In some instances, however, you can employ other evasive moves to dodge.
