Bayonetta 16/13/2023 ![]() ![]() A large majority of Bayonetta's combos all begin with the first punch*, and from there, you are free to start mixing it up with additional P's and K's. This is just a small sample of Bayonetta's moveset. Plenty of basic hack n' slash games follow this formula, and Bayonetta is no exception. The best way to view how the combat works in this game is to view the combo structure as a branching movelist. You can learn all of this at your own pace in practice mode, so let's go over quickly how to access that. I'll also be touching up on some advanced tricks and why it's useful to master. It is very important that players break out of the button mashing phase early on, so what I'll be covering in the first few sections are general offense strategies that will ensure that players get the most out of Bayonetta''s combat. ![]() While many basic angels can easily get stuck in hitstuns right from the first punch, enemies like Grace and Glory will either block, counter or just straight up ignore your attacks altogether, which will no doubt leave players frustrated and confused when up to this point it felt pretty darn easy just to beat up every enemy along the way without having to think much at all. You're welcome to button mash at your own pleasure, but as you may have guessed (or not), that isn't going to get you very far with this game. First time players new to this game will no doubt start button mashing like mad and start executing crazy attacks, most likely not knowing what triggers what, and that is perfectly fine. When it comes to combat, the simple breakdown is that Bayonetta is all about the Punch and Kicks, which I will refer to as "P" and "K" from here on out respectively. And also, I will assume you are using a controller but I will try my best and cover the button commands on KB+M controls as well. This guide will also assume you're playing the game on Normal difficulty, although the same strategy will apply to Hard and NSIC as well. I will be covering most of the other weapons as well, but there will be some things I will omit purely because if you can understand how Scarborough Fair works, you'll easily be able to segue into all the other weapons the game offers. As such, this guide will assume you're using the default settings for Bayonetta along with her default weapon of choice, the Scarborough Fair. I will do my best to keep things simple and understanding. Having a tough time dealing with tough enemies in the game? Want to try and net a Pure Platinum with relative ease? Want to learn how to do those sick air combos you see in those combo MADs on Youtube? Good news! I'm doing my best to make a simple beginner's guide for new Bayonetta players out there to help get you started. I've also decided to put this up publicly in the hopes that someone would be willing to help me write along this guide if they come across it, although considering not much people are active around the Bayonetta Steam Community, I assume it's not stinking likely. I will try to fill out the rest of the guide. I've decided to publish this for the public which I know is probably a bad idea to do since this guide doesn't actually touch up on how to fight Grace and Glory (just yet), but it does have some explanations of the combat that I hope new players can pick up on. *IMPORTANT NOTE: I started working on this guide a long time ago, but due to my own schedule (work, weight loss, life), I've had very little time to work on this. This walkthrough covers some of the basic details of the game along with MANY advanced tactics worth learning. A detailed walkthrough created to teach players how to get the most out of Bayonetta's combat to ensure they can properly take on even the most toughest enemies in this game. ![]()
