| Vital Star Dante begins with only one of these in his inventory. Unless playing Easy Automatic, he can only ever hold one. They can only be bought between missions or at Wtcher of Time shop statues. Dantes health meter is displayed in green when he's in full health, orange for midrange, and red for royally screwed. When Dante's life meter is empty, the next hit will kill him. Sometimes during the game, Dante's life is gradually drained for one reason or another. |
| Devil Star When Dante aquires the Alastor, he becmes capable of entering DT mode. As Dante remains in DT the meter below his life meter is drained over time or by special moves.

Devil Stars are hidden in several secret spots in the game, and you can purchase them between missions or at the shops. |
| Untouchable Using an Untouchable grants Dante immortality for a short time. While the Untouchable's shield is in effect, his life meter cannot be further reduced and his Devil Gauges remain full. Save these important item for battles against boss monsters to gain the upper hand on an enemy that is almost defeated. You cannot purchase Untouchables; you can only find them by searching well and finding their hidden locations. |
| Holy Water When used from the item menu, Holy water causes severe damage to all enemies in the immediate area. In some incredibly wide areas, such as the Commons outside the Coliseum or the path through the Canyon of Mist, a Holy Water's power will not reach all the way to the far ends. However, most enemies surrounding Dante will be killed when this item is used. You cab find Holy Water globes in a few locations throughout the game, and purchase them between missions and at shop statues. |
