Re: Fairy War
Just tap the guard key when you see a projectile flying your way. You can't guard and recharge, but you certainly can guard whenever you see something about to hit you without losing all that much recharge time.
The giantess boss has a pretty cheese strategy: keep jumping. She can't damage you at all if you're in the air unless your armor is in the red (her grab is the only thing that can collide with you in midair; but it doesn't do any damage unless it triggers a rape sequence). So jump, hit, hit, run and recharge, repeat, and you should go through the whole battle with full or close to full health. You pretty much need to do this with the melee girl.
@dark: as far as I know, there's not. You might be able to unlock one if you beat the final boss with both characters (I've only gotten up to the last boss with the melee girl, not beaten it), but somehow I doubt it. I was pretty disappointed by that too *points to earlier post wishing for sandbox mode or inf. health cheat*
At least the ice demons only do foot jobs. The only animation that's really worth it and takes time to get to is the final boss, and possibly the zombie's. Unless you're into foot jobs.
Edit:
Nope, nothing special for beating it with both characters.
Also, FYI, the ending text is EXACTLY the same for the melee girl as it is for the princess. Don't even bother unless you like the challenge. The only difference between the two is some of the rape animations (NOT the bosses') and the beginning text.
