Mission 14: Diverging Point: V

Devil May Cry 5 guide · V recovers his lost familiars in the underworld

V finds himself drained and trapped in a shadowy realm within the underworld, separated from his familiars Griffon, Shadow, and Nightmare. To escape, V must enter three separate portals to defeat mirage versions of past bosses—Goliath, Malphas, and Cavaliere Angelo—reclaiming one companion after each victory. Once all three companions are recovered, V navigates the collapsing Qliphoth roots and destroys a Blood Sac to return to the real world.

Enemies

Mirage Goliath

A shadow version of Goliath; focus on keeping your distance and reading his telegraphed charge attacks.

Mirage Malphas

A shadow version of Malphas riding the deformed bird; susceptible to ranged attacks while keeping mobile to evade ground spikes.

Mirage Cavaliere Angelo

Lusachia

High-tier demon that casts powerful elemental spells; prioritize taking it down quickly before it completes its incantations.

Tips

Shadow is generally the most useful first familiar to reclaim because his melee attacks provide reliable damage and evasive dodges.
Choosing to unlock Nightmare first allows you to summon him using Devil Trigger to deal massive damage and easily clear the remaining mirage boss encounters.
Since V starts this mission with no familiars, rely strictly on cane strikes, dodges, and keeping your distance until your first companion is freed.
