The Dr. Faust is one of Dante's weapons in Devil May Cry 5, created and given to him by Nico. It is the weaponized form of a Faust.

Description

A hat that consumes Red Orbs to launch special attacks. Earn tons of Red Orbs from foes if you don't run out of your own first.

File

Nico's Weapon Report - Dr. Faust
I built this here Devil Arm based off Daddy's old research. Got the name Faust from the demon I based this design concept off of.
It fires crystallized demon blood like bullets...y'know, Red Orbs? I also made sure it causes any demon it hits to cough up a butt-load of blood.
Amazing, ain't it!? You'd have to be a few beers short of a six-pack to pass up a Devil Arm like this.

Gameplay

Some of the Dr. Faust's attacks require Red Orbs to be performed; however, when enemies are defeated utilizing it, the player will collect back more Red Orbs than were used to perform said actions. The more Red Orbs the player has, the longer Dante's flame-esque scarf will be.

With the Gunslinger Style, Dante is able to throw the hat itself around, or spawn meteorite-like projectiles from the sky, the latter deals an incredible amount of damage if charged, but the pay-off is the high cost of Red Orbs to perform such move.

Trivia

DMC5 Dante posing Michael Jackson's iconic move

The "Hat Trick" skill sometimes makes Dante pose the iconic Michael Jackson dance moves.

  • The way Dante poses with the hat is paying tribute to legendary pop star Michael Jackson, by coincidence, Devil May Cry 5 released 10 years since his death.
  • The weapon itself may also be in reference to Robert Johnson, a famous Blues singer whose had many myths and legends around him that's said he had gained his talent by making a "Faustian Deal".
  • When Dr. Faust was revealed at the New York Comic-Con 2018, it was named "Faust Hat" instead.[1]
  • Dr. Faust is a cowboy hat, this could a be a reference to a presentation held by Ninja Theory about DmC Devil May Cry at 2013's Game Developers Conference. Where they showed their vision of the DmC Dante, stating that if the classic Dante were to be in a western movie, he wouldn't fit in Brokeback Mountain, a movie about two gay cowboys.[2]
