So Ive been playing on hard and I gotta be near the end because the last few stages have been so ridiculously difficult, so much more than the entire game has been up until this point.


Im at the part with the fire breathing 3 headed monster that breathes fire, he is pretty easy to fight, but with the speed, agility and range of the god damn rams and their dual ended scythes or whatever Im having an extremely difficult and frustrating time, so much that I quit the ****ing game i was so ****ing pissed.

I figured if I cooled off and tried again tomorrow I will do better, I have been using the hercules gloves to fight these ****ers. is there any suggested technique?

Its a shame I didnt hunt for those gorgon eyes more avidly, because I can certainly use just a bit more health.

I can tear off the first head with no problem and sometimes without getting hurt, the 2nd head is harder since the ram comes in so I usually spam magic and it works out so that the 2nd head is ready to be torn off. but once its down to me, the 2 rams and the 1 headed monster, I will usually get killed by the rams.

I cannot believe I quit, STUPID ****ING RAMS!! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH! GALALALALALAFFFFTTT GAH! GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! ****AROO RAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that part can get pretty frustrating. Rip off one of Cerebrus' heads and it spawns 1-2 more SAYTRS. Those saytrs are a pain in the arse, to say the least. If you don't have full health, full magick bar by that fight, you must have been speedrunning through the entire game.

Just grab and kick those dogs he spits out. Your invincible while in the grabbing animation. Kick them at the satyrs. I really didn't find this fight as hard as everyone else. I thought there were some much harder ones.

What I did was kept jump over the Cerebus thing and using L1+Square/Triangle combo This allows the dogs that he spits out run to me which is actually running into him. And when the Rams come out I did not engage them until I defeated the Cerebus. Use the Nemesis whip to keep the Rams a little busy imo, also Rage of Sparta is your friend, other than that sometimes it all about luck. I was able to do it on Titan doing that tactic. Avoiding the rams until the dog was dead.

The fight can be broken down to 3 parts, 1 for each head, this is what I did, also on hard:

1) Fight normally and try to take as little damage as possible

2) Use the nemesis whip's magic attack to hit multiple enemies, that can keep the satyr off your back whilst you concentrate on the cerberus some of the time. Don't be stingy either use all your magic.

3) Use rage of sparta and concentrate on the cerberus, you should be able to take it down fully or close to fully with a full rage of sparta metre.

Generally ignore the satyrs until the end and finish the cerberus first, that worked for me at least.

ive beaten it on normal, but im still working my way there on hard. i know that fully upgraded blades of exile do more damage than dog kicking, thats what im sticking to. also, dont forget about your rage of sparta (it wasnt mentioned in your op). it doesnt have to full to activate, so use it when you need it most (like the 3rd head).

That part was very hard (but not frustrating) but I felt so good when I beat it on Titan. I'm playing on Chaos now so I hope it isn't too bad.

Kick the exploding dogs into Cerberus by pressing O, keep your distance and spam triangle, triangle, triangle, triangle with the Blades of Exile when you have an opening. Block and evade as needed. When the Satyrs spawn, wait until they are away from Cerberus when possible, then just run up to them and press O, which will initiate a QTE. Do this 3 times per Satyr to polish them off quickly. Just pace yourself, and you will get past it.

Yea that part was pretty hard for me to i actually beat it on titan with out using my rage of sparta (forgot i had it lol). But the trick is to just go for the dog beast right away and take it out. And than take out the rams.

wow. great, FANTASTIC advice. the exploding dogs tip was great, i found it easier for me to use the hercules heavy gloves, three quick hooks was enough to stun the bastard than i would evade. spammed my magic in the second phase which moved me quickly to the 3rd, once i applied the QTEs with the Satyrs the game became a whole lost easier all over again.managed to kill them off quickly all on the same and very little health I had going into the 3rd even 2nd phase of the fight, and moved on to kill the beast with his own offspring. un****ingbelievable how simple this all could have been. thank u so much!!!

The rams are easy if you know how to fight them. You have to go up to them and press "O" and take the weapon from them. You might have to press "O" on them twice. The second time you will take their weapon and throw it threw their heart and kill them. This is the best way to fight them.
