Ninja Gaiden Sigma - The Pros and Cons for Each Weapon

Ninja - Sword and Shuriken
Bats - Windmill Shuriken
(in my opinion, shurikens are better as they have stronger auto-track capabilities. when a swarm of bats surround you, the windmill shuriken is too slow and your life gets drained. while the WS can kill several bats at one go, it's not always. with the shurikens, if you do a flying bird-flip and throw it, you can release about 8!!!!)

Murai - Sword
(right....use the S T, On-Landing T combo on him after he rolls....would be even more awesome if there's essence around, like in hard mode and above)

Samurai - Sword and Smoke Bombs
Mages - Sword (arrows are great too, and shurikens are very useful to stop them temporarily from releasing the magic ball while you're fighting with other foes)

Horsemen - Sword
(go to the house, adjust camera and chain UTs with the DS)

Masakado - Sword and Bow

Dark Dragon Blade Doku - Sword

Security Forces - Sword and Shuriken

Airship Challenge - Sword and Shuriken

Flying Turrets - Bow
(the windmill shuriken is awesome if you're mid-range from them, although in the military warehouse chapter where u gotta shoot 20 of them, the bow is the best)

Dynamo - Dual Swords and Inferno Ninpo
(i've seen how the 360 attack totally rapes him....it's bloody...suddendly, dynamo isn't scary anymore)

Bikers - Dual Swords and Inferno Ninpo

Dinos - Dual Swords
(LOL....this is the 1st time i heard people say dual swords are good....i heard vampirehorde says they ain't suitable in the other thread....., but swords are all good)



Hydracubus - Sword
(u can rape this guy totally with the DCTF's 360 + T and the UT!!!!)

Imps - Sword and Shuriken

Cats - Chucks, Flails, and Lunar
(i personally prefer swords because the above mentioned 3 weapons always screw me up badly especially on VH and MN)
