    so this is devil may cry 1 right? there are only two ways that he can lose health;

    1)jump on him and wack away,his tail usually looses more health,when on top of him

    2)this is the best way but also the most dangerous.attack his head!!! but there are number of problems with that:he uses his massive claws if you get too close so watch out for them.And remember when he shoots out fire balls from his mouth,well it's nearly impossible for him to miss if your that close to him,but he does lose more health when doing that way,up to you.

    i'm sure you'll be fine mate

    The way I do it is pretty easy, buy the Stinger move for Alastor, charge up your DT by shooting the crap out of him and then just DT and use that move on him a few hundred milllion gagillion times 'til he dies.

    you can smack the balls back into his head, and that racks up damage as well. I think thats the fastest way to kill him. but the timing is veeeerrrrrrrrry tricky...

    Run towards it, jump above it and come down crashing with your sword. Avoid his attacks and repeat.

    If you have some Devil Trigger energy stored, turn in to your Devil Trigger form while you're at it.

    If done correctly, not only he'll try to run away from you, you'll finish him off in no time.

    "Alot," isn't a word, don't merge the words "a" and "lot" together.

    you're probably allready past him by now but.

    1. [between phase] between his attacks he will walk arround or stare at you or something like that. just shoot him with ebony and ivory.

    2. [jump phase] he will jump into the air and try to land on top of you. jump into the air as well and use the handguns so he will hit the ground first. use this opportunity to slash down at him like the ending of the high time combo. (this will do damage if you land it right)

    3. [pillar phase] he will ram his head into the ground and start summoning pilliars of fire to attack you. just run arround to dodge these. you can also use this time to get close and stinger him when he brings his head up. (note: stinger will throw him off balance)

    4. [fireball phase] he will shoot fireballs at you. (note: you will see them forming in his mouth) when you see this stinger him and the fireball will blow up inside of him. this way is easier to do than trying to knock the fireballs back at him as long as you know the reach of your stinger.

    5. [powerless phase] if you were successfull in part 4 his body will turn black and he will just sit there. pound on him until he regains power.

    if you keep your distance in the tween phase you shouldn't have to worry about him attacking you with his claws or his tail. but if he does block his head with his claws and run towards you just jump over him and use the falling slash and jump back off again.

    this may not be the most stylish way, but it gets the job done more often than not.

    Well I'm pretty sure Zeno A.O.D covered it and it sounds like this strategy would work for beginners. It also sounds like a very safe option.  Also note that jumping and then coming down on his back with your sword is quite effective and probably the safer option. Watch out for his column attack its a pain to get out of if you get caught in it. Good luck this is usually a hard point in the game after this things should get easier for a while.

    1st:Jump on his back

    2nd:Turn Devil trigger on

    3rd:Start slashing him with Alastor.He'll be dead in no time.

    All I ever have to do is buy the Ariel Raid tech, go into Devil mode, and zap the Hell
     out of him. At least I think it was Ariel Raid

    yeah that's the easiest tactic... just use air raid, when depleted, get your dt back by shooting him or trying to hit him a few times (even hitting his legs and not doing any damage gets your dt up)
