Tips and Tricks

  • This Trial is one that you can cheese your way through just because of how powerful the Serpent’s Cry water gun is. Refill it with PlayStation Circle Button until you hit the Quick Refill, take advantage of your ability to dodge twice with PlayStation R1 Button, and enjoy blasting away with PlayStation Square Button and PlayStation Triangle Button. Just make sure to use your other abilities too, so that you pick up some time bonuses, but Leviathan’s attacks are so strong that this last trial isn’t much of a challenge.
