Just because I don't like the game doesn't mean I don't know how to play it.
And yes, that isn't the point of this feature at all.

Level 6 is the way to go for me. Level three double katanas and a few quick ultimate techniques. Done.

I got it by using the gattling spear gun in ch9 where those fish keep respawning in that small body of water where you first meet the creatures with chainsaws. Didnt even realize how easy it was.

That's exactly where I got it too. I didn't realize there was a 100-combo achievement until I got it from shooting them fishies.

There is a soon place you can do this. I got mine with the first archer in chapter 1. He is on bridge. All you have to do is keep jumping and throw your stars; he'll never touch you and you can get about 125 hit off.

***POSSIBLE SPOILERS***
I did this on my first play through, just using the vigorian flails as soon as you pick them up, there is a test of valour close by,has lots of the skull spiders and the other spiders, just use them to rack up a huge combo(i hit 176 before i ran out of enemies just mashing the Y button).
