Can someone post a list of specific enemy strats? Like what weapon and moves are best against them.
I'm sure others will offer differing opinions but:
I just beat the game on normal difficulty and I'm not that good at these types of games. But I love the gameplay, I just don't want to spend lots of time figuring out strats on my own.
Stygians of all levels: Cannon fodder. Even the Elite Stygian is basically just a gimped Knight sans shield. Everything works on them.
Knights: Smash Hell Knight/Dark Knight shields with Arbiter or Eryx. Hell Knights are actually easier to beat, since they spend so much time doing their inferno attack, which you're completely immune to while you're in demon mode. Frost Knights are a little trickier since they're only vulnerable to angel weapons, which do pitiful damage. Use Osiris's prop and shredder moves to break their shields, then launch them in the air and juggle them infinitely until they die.
Pathos/Bathos: Grapple their shields away (If they have them), then shotgun them to the face. Prop will reflect Bathos' bombs back into their face.
Ravager: These guys get super armor a lot, but a fully charged Drive, detonating four Explodey darts, or a Round Trip will knock them out of it. Individually not difficult, but they can be a pain as parts of larger groups. Juggle them ASAP, keep them airborne so they never rev up their super armor attack.
Tyrant: They can be grappled from behind, unless they're enraged. A fully charged Eryx uppercut will knock them out of their super armor state and launch them for juggles, but the timing was always wonky for me. I would always demon pull from behind, and then Trinity Smash their heads while they got back up. They lose their super armor if they dash into a wall, so I'd always try and arrange that. Detonating four darts will strip them of it too, but you don't get that gun until way late in the game.
Witch: Round trip was made to break their shields. Alternately, Prop/Shredder works if you don't have Aquilla yet, and you can demon pull her summoned swords and knock them back at her to smash her shield and deal some damage. High priority enemy, you should target them first since they have a nasty habit of transferring their shield to other enemies. They can be hit just as they detonate their shield to nulify the explosion and stun them, but I rarely ever get that close to trigger it unless they're already stunned.
Rage: Almost always appear in pairs, the second will go into super armor mode if the first dies. Try to damage them equitably if you can, I personally just pin them down with round trip, then do Trinity Smash, and Round Trip them again.
Blood Rage: Only vulnerable to demon weapons, so Round Trip isn't an option. I usually just whale on them with demon weapons, which hit hard enough to keep them off their game if you demon pull them right back and hit them some more.
Ghost Rage: Fuck these guys. Pin them with Round Trip, switch to Osiris and hit them for a bit, then reup your Round Trip, switch back to Osiris. Repeat until dead.
Harpies: Shotgun will tear their wings off in a couple hits. They will regenerate though, so be sure to try and kill them while you have the opportunity.
Butcher: I'm pretty sure they can be juggled by a fully charged Eryx too, but I don't usually bother. You can bait their projectile saw blade attack by hanging back at the right distance, and then just use Prop to reflect them right back at him to stun. Run in and do a Trinity Smash or Eryx punches, fall back when the saws replace themselves.. They explode for damage when defeated, so fall back when he starts screaming and staggering around.
Dreamrunner: Bait a teleport, then fully charge up a Snake Eyes (Forward, forward, Melee with Eryx), let it rip when the portal reopens and he tries to jump you. Follow it up with a few more hits, and repeat.
