Does Pincer-Blades' armor actually help Raiden in Revengeance mode or do you still get one-shot depending on the enemy?

Haha, Gekkos are some shit in VR, seems like pure luck whether you take them out in a couple seconds or take a whole minute on one. Perfect parries end up being pointless on some attacks when they just jump out of the way.
Welcome to America, motherfucker.This final boss.
This final boss.
In terms of pure damage output, what do you guys think is the better sword: a filly maxed out Murasama Blade or a fully maxed out Fox Blade?
Is there a way to completely avoid Monsoon's Sai attack where he extends his arm all the way out at you? It's so small and fast. I suck at blocking it.

When he drops down from throwing shit at you, stun-lock him with sai, go into Blade Mode and cut where indicated.
Muramasa. More DPS will help you sleep better at night, plus it turns your sheath attack into Sam's flame burst which is way too cool.
This final boss.
I will literally have to go back and get health packs for the final form of this boss.
Also, the writing of this game totally went to shit. Not that Metal Gear games have ever been bastions of excellent political writing, but this is just batshit insane.
If you are talking about theLet me know how it goes. I gave up after two hours. I miss the QTE 80% and can barley advance in the fight.
That fight at the entrance of the japanese garden in chapter 5 is even worse than the final boss ffs. I've been stuck on it for an hour or so.
Their super armor is just as effective as in any difficulty.
Quick throw RP Grenades (quickly tap L2 with them equip). They'll go off instantly if it hits them. Then just Zandatsu the normal guys. Maybe use a EMP grenade on the heavy swordsman.
May the blade be with you.My copy arrived!!!
Gray Fox code redeemed, bout to get in dat ass

If you are talking about thethe MG parts he throws you can run and slide under them
The Cyborg Ninja and FOX Blade are available right now on themarketplace for 240MSP.Australian
Yup but if youIs that the part you mean?Right after you get the sword from Wolf.. You lower Armstrong's health about half way. He jumps on top of the rubble and throws a brick wall at you.
I can get the first cut, but the second cut never seems to land.
And Pincer blades are probably the most effective sub weapon against anything that isn't flying or a GRAD. You can cancel the charging into not just a dodge but a parry as well, I believe, like this guy does here.
I'll give it a try tomorrow. I haven't been this frustrated with a boss fight in a while. I haven't even played games tonight. That's how frustrated I am.
Holy shit, that tech. I'll never be that good with those blades.
He probably means on Revengeance difficulty, where it spawns mastiffs in the second wave along with the swordsman.
Pincers are probably the solution

This is a spoiler man, c'mon.
I managed to finish VR mission 1 in around 29.16 seconds through use of the pincer blades (nothing else worked for me). It was quite a problem without them, seeing as everything had to be killed in under 40 seconds for the Gold time.I'll have to put some time into the blades tomorrow. I only used that heavy base attack which throws enemies up into the air but the blades are too slow to be practical for me.
I haven't done the VR's yet, but the "kill 'em all" ones seem impossible to me to get a good time/1st run on.

That one is the easiest and I can't do it either. I got the Slide Blade Mode down, but I can't line up the second slide right and that fucking Gekko...
Don't zandatsu when you slide to kill the first 3 that spawn. Just get into position start charging the second hit of pincers and release a split second after the second wave spawns so the two melee guards can move a bit closer. Releasing it will probably kill 3-4 guards, refill all your blade meter, and stun the gekko.
