General Tips
By following these strategies and tips, you should be able to defeat Djimmi The Great more efficiently. Remember that practice makes perfect, and adjusting your tactics based on the attacks you find most challenging will help improve your gameplay.
1st stage: Cross your fingers for the swords, parry what you can safely, and fly in a large circle to avoid stuff.
2nd stage: I stay in tiny form the whole time, makes dodging the saws easier and prevents stupid mistakes like touching the pillars as you fly through.
3rd stage: Stay in the middle of the screen and fire continuously at him. The mummies should die before they reach you. When he shoots the planets, go tiny and fly through the middle of them after they cross the second time.
4th stage: There aren't any tricks here, just learn the pattern and try to parry. You can use your super bomb to get through it quicker.
Final stage: I save my super bomb for this stage, but in general just fly in a small counterclockwise circle and watch out for his eye beam thing.
Thanks! I just beat him with your tips!
Mega bomb the muumy or puppet fase
I nave tried like one-thousand times and i cant beat it
Djimmi the Great
Setup: coffee
Trick him back into his lamp.
At the coffin phase you can just stay at the top and use the bombs without getting hit
When he shoots objects try to dodge them
Use extra hp as charm.
if you get the charms small plane and dodge mainly up and down go left or right if you need. The swords are asy just move when they start chasing you. For the cats move around in circles till they go away and for the big skull go up (ots eay to avoid).
By now if you've lost 1 heart restart the boss.
Ok for the stacks use the bombs and move up and down. If you see a blade down that means it's going up. Visa versa. Try to avoid tiny plane but if you have no choice do it.
For the mummy/sarcophagus/ alian phase you wanna stay at the top near him. Use you bombs and stay in place if you see a ghost keep on using the bombs you'll kill it and for the eyes move left to right (not in that order just don't go down)
For the puppet don't trigger the secret boss and beat it normally. Save your super for this and don't go tiny unless you absolutely have to(but it don't matter if you loose a heart you're almost done. Use the normal bullets and move around alot. Make sure to parry the pink slime things and when the hat coughs those pellets move left to right.
Okay almost done you should have your super meter filled from parrying the jelly things in last phase so use it immediately. When you see a eye opening a long beam will come out north south east and west. I don't have a tactic for this just make sure the side you go into has lots of space. And be carefully of the rings djimmi summons. Use your specials when you can and with some practice you will beat him.
-use heart ring (dlc) -save the super for the 4th phase -in the 3rd phase, go to the top of the screen, bomb djimmi and look out for the eyes -git gud -swords are i think the easiest in the 1st phase -destroy all breakable pillar-heads in the 2nd, you can do more damage so i think
no heart ring gives you a lower score
you might be getting confused, if you spin around 3 times in the overworld are you will get extra hearts from djimmi. that is what give you a lower score.
No, it works for me
Don’t worry i s ranked him earlier
https://youtu.be/UBFgsyn0U-U this man passed it, I hope his tactics will help you
If u have the dlc use the divine relic
I use it on every plane boss
I 300% each three save files
Bruh it took me days to S rank Djimmi.
I almost threw my controllers against the wall.
You can skip cuppet phase and access a secret final phase by going into mini-plane while he’s transitioning into the phase. The only difference in the final phase is there is now a mini cuppet hanging in the middle that occasionally shoots a round of bullets in a circle. He’s not too bad though, and helped me beat that phase much easier
it took me a bit but he isn't too bad, easier than beppi
Beppi is easy
beppi took me longer for like a day or two, his balloons and his last phase was a bit more difficult than djimmis since djimmis last phase was about dodging less and only had to worry about a lot less
both bosses were very fun though
Nevermind, already beat it...
But still share your methods!
hace poco me entere, cupnocho no puede disparar hacia atras
Bring Chalice for starters. For the first phase, the swords are the easiest ones to get because they can give you around three free parries. If you don’t get the swords, just try your best to dodge either the cats or the jewels while damaging him. During the second phase, destroy all his heads with Chalice’s bombs. He takes damage from all the heads being destroyed. During the third phase, just unload bombs onto him from above. During the 4th phase, be careful of the hat, and use your super on the puppet. For the last phase, keep an eye on the pyramids for when they’re about to fire and on Jimmy’s attack
Rather lately I have been trying to beat isle 2 and Djimmi the great is my last boss to beat and I keep taking damage on the first stage and if not do something stupid on the second stage I can definitely beat the sarcophagus stage but all the others one I can't get used to please help
Idk if you've beaten it yet but definitly equip coffee charm. For the first phase, jewles are the hardest and swords are probs easiest, cats are not too bad. For the jewlery, just dodge amd weve and dont be afraid to shrink, for swords I just shrink and go back or foward there really easy and for cats just dodge and weave too. For the second phase, look where the spinning blade is going and move depending on it nit the face pillars. Continue this till the next part. The sarcophagus stage you said you can get by but a trick I learned is when he shoots his floating eyeballs, hug the left of the screen in line with the eyeballs and each time the eyeballs will go over you and never hit you. Granted, it does take a bit longer to finish this way but for getting the level done it works. When the Pinnocio comes out, use your super. This stage is probs the hardest and you want all the damage you can hit him with. Again dont be afraid to go mini and dodge the projectiles. His last phase in my opinion is not the worst. Watch out for his ring beam and look at the pyramids eyes for the lasers. If you have coffee equipped you might be able to use your super on him. Keep practicing this and hopefully you'll beat him.
I didn't use coffee but I did finally beat the boss now I'm now on isle 3 thanks for the tip
No problem. Happy to help :)
Ha funny for me the cats are the hardest. They just so annoyingly released one off screen I'd forget about
Ikr XD
You beaten him yet?
Yes
So I’m trying to s rank him, but theres a problem, if i use the twin heart, i will do 10% less damage, making me 16 seconds too slow, but when i don’t look use twin hearts, i cant get hit, which is how you’re meant to do it, so its not that hard, but what is hard is doing that + having to reset on phase 1 over 20 times to get one attempt, since the cats and swords are way too hard, and it feels like the gems are a 1% chance
Yeah use single heart. Swords are easy if you just stay directly in the middle tho
Really? I would reset every time I got the gems, I couldn’t do those for the life of me.
It doesn’t matter, either way you have to reset until you get the one you like
Yea I guess so. Mine was always accompanied by a passive aggressive “of course it would be this one” so I get what you mean!
Single heart
I struggled a lot for him in s rank. I did in on 2:06 without any additional heart so you really news to go fast with them.
I just did over and over again and I finally get a lucky run. I guess a restarted every minute within 2 hours.
IMHO, Djimmi is the most difficult boss in the game when you are trying to get S-Rank, period. In other circumstances or priorities, he's not.
Djimmi was one of the hardest bosses for me. Achieving his S rank was one of the hardest ones for me because of the time.
Good guide, but I'd also like to point out that for the sarcophagus phase, you can literally just stay at the top of the screen and bomb him and slowly move forwards and backwards to dodge the ghosts. It's probably the easiest phase of the fight not counting the collums phase.
I did try this, but I played the level many times and I found that the ghosts would intercept the bombs more often than not, and it was more time efficient to use bullets.
That's why moving back and forth is recommended. I do this all the time and I can beat the phase within 10-15 seconds, once you understand how to do this phase like that, it can save a lot of time.
Tomorrow I will be covering Beppi the Clown. Stay tuned for more tips!
U can also get behind the puppets bullets
True, but it’s hard to get a good angle for shooting or bombing the puppet from there. Plus, it’s hard to get back out again and the puppet’s main bullets can still aim toward you.
so i tried to s-rank djimmi but i failed. i took damage in puppet phase or the last phase. any tips?
What Charm are you using? I recommend Coffee, since the time requirement was originally the hardest facet of S-Ranking him for me.
In terms of the puppet stage, remember that the third projectile will be parry-able. Try and bait the hat as close to the puppet as possible. This is the hardest stage in my opinion.
For the last stage, immediately go to the bottom right as close to the boss as possible without damaging yourself on him. Literally just hold your primary fire into him here. Then, when the hat-beam is shot at you, activate your super to tank the hit and damage the boss. Go back to holding down primary fire and that should beat him. If not, as the next beam is about to come, simply retreat to the center, dodge the purple line stuff, and fire off your EX mini-supers as you get them and the stage should end extremely fast.
Edit - Just realized you also posted the Phantom Express thread as well and I made an answer in that too. Good luck!
i always use invisible dash , and p-sugar on devil. and sometimes coffee in plane levels. and thanks for guide bruh , puppet phase and the last phase are the hardest imo. im gonna try the guide soon.
thanks bruh , i followed things u said to beat djimmi and finally s-ranked djimmi. thanks.
Help please?
Shoot all the time, thats the only way you will advance, and the faster each stage ends the less lives you’ll lose
Have you tried turning it off and on again or even go back to the menu? Or if that doesn't work shoot your way through first phase and hopefully go back to normal?
i reinstalled it and he's not invisible anymore,but when he change phases some textures are still missing
That's his vanishing trick!
why aren't you shooting?
Shoot an invisible genie,best idea!
Jokes aside,i filmed with my hand and i could only press the move controls 😅
don't you have a record option on your console?
john cena the great
Djimmi so great, he doesn't need psychical form
if ur on PC it is REALLY HARD to get the extra hearts with djimmi. idk what it is but i tried so many times with my keyboard to no avail. tried with a controller — got it immediately. it’s kinda annoying but eeehh
I think it's because the requirement for 'circle' is strict - with a keyboard, it's hard to walk in a perfectly circular motion due because you are using four keys to move. But if you are using a controller then with a joy con you can walk pretty circularly. So try to aim to walk more circularly may help, maybe try using two keys at the same time.
Spin faster, I assure you it works
STOP TROLLING ME . I will .. GET ANGRY...
It irks bro you’re just doing it wrong dumbass
what your gonna do when you get angry💀
I'm not even lying, you're just spinning really slowly. Like it's even in the official Cuphead wiki
"In the patch 1.3.2 of Cuphead, Quadratus mentions spinning in place when you are in a rough place, when you spin around in place for 3 times, Game Djimmi appears and says "It is I, Game Djimmi! I grant thee 3 wishes and this is the first. Each wish doubles HP 'til the next win." Doubling the players health going into Run 'n Gun levels and boss levels in Simple and Regular Modes until the player wins a level. This bonus can be triggered three times in a new save file and infinitely in a completed file. However, with the bonus Health the player cannot get P rank in Run 'n Gun levels, nor can they get a Rank higher than B+ on boss levels."
You aren't spinning fast enough
Spin in really small quick circles
Git gud
