it's guaranteed crit + pierce and gets boosted by his own passive, crit zealot and force pleromas. while it doesn't reach the same highs as figment slash or parasalene blur the damage is respectable and is consistent a press turn button. he has plenty of space for high restore too making him self sufficient. with scathach in the stock he also has a magatsuhi AoE, boosted by pleromas, that also sets atk and def to -2. it one shot all shiva's adds and evergreen dance means I can charge up another magatsuhi skill in 2 turns.

>>681347448
It’s piercing guaranteed crit so he can be at the front of the party and you’ll ALWAYS get a press turn plus he has the elemental AoE maga move to tank enemy stats

Yeah, pretty much. When you beat Satan you unlock an option with Sophia to buy a miracle that uncaps your levels (999 glory), from there you can do w/e to max out your levels (use Mitama's, farm weaker enemies, etc) to get to 150 then go to Godborn.

The SMT VVengance music is all over the place is all over the place, just like the game has lacks any real tone or vibe.

Some of them feel like they are from Nocturne, Others from persona, some from the original V. The music and the game lack direction they just slapped a bunch of garbage together which is a shame because V original soundtrack was very unique.

To me, that's really the only explanation. There is no way you could play Nocturne and not know Nozuchi. And this is the game he seems to like most, so what even has he played? SMT IV, which is significantly easier than V and also lets you save anywhere? SMT IV:A, which is significantly more persona than V?

I've heard this one. Thor got wasted one time and lost Mjolnir to a dwarf or a dark elf (they may be the same thing in Norse mythology, I can't remember) and the dwarf would only return it for the hand of Sif, goddess of beauty, in marriage. Thor went to Loki for advice since he was too ashamed to ask the Aesir, and Loki convinced him to dress up as Sif and fake the marriage. At the reception, Thor get totally sloshed and Loki had to keep making excuses for why "Sif" kept belching loudly and trying to start fights. Eventually Thor managed to get his hammer right as the jig was up and he ended up beating the shit out of all the dwarves present. Nice 80's buddy comedy.

It's crazy how clear cut and genius at times SMT used to be.

A fallen angel with godlike powers, sitting on what looks like a Law Throne, transforms into a creature with bug like wings and a fucked up fetus arm. In the older SMT he was literally a beautiful angel with demon wings

Meanwhile on SMTVVengezone you have to reach out and make shit up to make it make sense. Like i can NOT tell if Yoko is trying to tempt the other girl or not , the actions tell me she is but the cringe ass dialogue makes me thing it's not like that at all and i'm grasping for straws to make the game LESS SHIt.

I still can't believe we haven't gotten any of the guest demons from SMT4 in any of the later games, even the ones that Doi redrew. What, did Atlus forget to retain the rights to them or something?

Pretty sure you keep Talismans and Periapts. As for Miracles, the only ones you keep are the ones you used to get from picking Law or Chaos (but you just get all of them in CoV), namely the ones that let you fuse and recruit demons of any level, potentially auto-succeed in negotiation, and whatever the hell the fourth one was.

They find stuff at different rates with some finding enemies more often, some Macca, some jewels, some stat boosters and such. There was a chart for the vanilla release but there's no updated version for Vengeance yet.

You have to wait until you clear the first area. Then you get stuck with Amanozako again for a chunk of the second area. After that, you're free. The original game didn't give you any choices until that point, so Amanozako's still mandatory early on.

All the demons get comically smaller to fit into the battle screen. It's most noticeable in the Demon Haunt when you see the demons in their full size and you see Zeus towering above Beano while he's just slightly taller in battle.

I don't know how you could forget IV's sidequesting if you ever did the neutral route. Apoc had a lot too but they were updated automatically so you probably completed them passively and they didn't feel as numerous as a result.

Does Mermaid's passive add a set number of hits, or is it based on how many hits the original attack did?
If it's the former, something like Axel Claw would get a lot more bang for the buck compared to Artemis's Astral Saintstrike, no?

The way it works is that it adds +2 to maximum allowed hits, random target skills always hit for minimum amount when there's only one target except when you use dance. However mermaid passive only works when you have some sort of omagotoki effect active otherwise it won't do anything.
Axel claw at 4 hits has 480 power which is a lot, astral saintstrike by comparison would have 300 power or 340 with extra 2 hits granted by pandemonic feast.
The mermaid passive gets even better with omagotoki dance which forces multi hit skills to hit for maximum amount of time so if axel claw was used with dance it would hit 6 times for 720 power and there are far better skills than axel claw for this combo.

Huh? How? I played both and I can tell you that Vengance pretty much fixed any major difficulty spikes in Hard, to the point where it's not that difficult anymore sans the times where you punch up and do challenge quests ahead of time.

Like one of the biggest walls in V Hard had was the Hydra fight which now is basically Tutorial boss tier. So, I cannot tell how do you think it's any worse balanced than othet games in the series.
>>
>>681365217
Was Hydra that bad in vanilla? Vengeance is my first playthrough and he was simple.

Yeah he was pretty hard, keep in mind levels meant way more than stats in the original so if you got to him too early you were basically fucked.

Look you are too fucking stupid to understand but SMTV has no level design, it's basically empty rooms full of clusters of monsters that you can farm.

Then the gameplay is so one sided and boring cause you get to have every demon, every skill, everything at your disposal so you just end up going trough the motions.

It's souless incarnate, it's a dogshit SMT game and one of the worst JRPGs ever made.

If you can't kill her in one turn you need to lvl up.
Use Matarukaja and magatsuhi skills, critical paired with succession and finish her in one turn don't bring any support demons with you in active party only offensive ones . You need MAX burst damage here.

IV had some Krautrock and 80s electronic (stuff like YMO but every japanese game composer every is influenced by YMO), but V had hiphop and "latin-esque", he specifically at some point mentions these genres in the soundtrack notes. I'm not done reading the VV notes tho.
the Splatoon influence is also there, someone said he has talked about Splatoon's music in his twitter but I can't find the specific tweet and I honestly don't remember seeing it either.

Angels are just a product of the fucked up system that has some Demon/Human/Ayy lmao rule over all of creation without the perquisite omniscience to make it work.
Neutrals think that by culling the angels every few kalpas and replacing the big mean god in the golden throne with a random mortal that might or might not have the qualifications to run a fast food restaurant, let alone a universe, that they can somehow achieve their secular-flavored Millennium Kingdom, failing to realize each holder of the throne before got into power through that exact means.

Lucifer in TN was almost right, but then he had to leave behind the omnipotent God who after enough eons will probably get bored of a no-demons world and undo their progress or try and weasel through the rules to make monsters or other inhuman shit that aren't technically demons but are basically demons.

No, because the Axiom/Greater Will/Will of the Universe isn't a character in the classic sense. It's the true god of SMT in a literal sense, but it's more of a stand-in for the developer/player. The Will governing the nature of reality, whose avatars (YHVH/Lucifer/etc.) act as the final boss but give the player (Messiah) the opportunity to stomp them and Decide the fate of the game world.

Just have Rampage and Crit aura.
Stall with yabusame shot until you buff/debuff with Cleo.
Switch to Vritra as it has both Dance and Feast and have fun.
Honestly the ice and phys resists isn't even necessary, just give them enduring soul. They only need to survive long enough to get the combo out and at that point the boss either dies or has such low hp it's easy to clean up.
I'll probably get Metatron for fires of sinai, although a gogmagog would deal more damage.

>>
>>681385582
Turn order, you might have someone up front to perform a function before Bino gets to act to ensure he gets the benefit or max turns.
>>
>>681385582
The first one acting has to ensure you hit a weakness or a crit to get extra press turns, otherwise you lose a turn.
Position 1 and 3 want to hit weaknesses.
position 2 and 4 can use any attacks or buff/debuffs.
>>
>>681385582
Luster candy as 1
Hoshi tobi as 2
Astral strike as 3
Metatrom as 4 cuz him almighty skills go up based on how many times enemy was hit this turn
>>
>>681385582
>What benefits is there on changing position?
This game uses a press turn system, you start with 4 press turns and you can extend these to 8 maximum. The way most efficient setups work is that you put attackers at slots 1 and 3 so you hit weakness gain half press turn, spend half press turn with support on slot 2, attacker on 3 again generates half press turn and support on 4 spends it. This way you can guarantee 8 actions on every boss fight provided party members 1 and 3 can critical or hit weakness which is nearly always possible.
That's the most basic setup, there are many setups that you can make with custom turn order. In other SMT games turn order is based on agility so it can be hard to get a party that acts in most optimal way.
>>
>>681385676
Unless achievements for X-2 are different than PS trophies, it should be piss easy. X was much harder, in my opinion, with that 0:00:00 chocobo race and 2001 Dodge Lightning.

I get that getting weakness hits or crits makes you do half a turn but you're also saying that if you use a 1 turn move like a buff or debuff or non weak/crit attack when you've already used half a turn it'll only actually use half the turn? Like going from 3.5 to 3 instead of 3.5 to 2.5? Am I understanding that right?

>>
>>681386236
Yes, that's the whole point.
>>
>>681386236
when you get a flashing press turn icon it will be consumed first when using actions that would otherwise use a whole turn so yeah if you let's say hit weakness on first action you get 1 blinking turn and 3 normal turns, only that blinking turn will be consumed when casting buff, debuff, heal, attack that doesn't hit weakness etc. Once you only have blinking turns you can't generate any more that's why with 4 press turns you can have 8 actions maximum

Damn, yeah that's insanely useful to know. I just assumed 1 turn was 1 turn regardless of what came before it and it was a simple subtraction from a 4 point total. That's especially useful for bosses where I'm going to want to rely a lot more on buffs and debuffs. Thanks lads.

My opening for bosses is usually

>Cleopatra, Luster Candy
>Kresnik, Yabusame Shot

and attack with Kresnik and Bino on 2nd turn, while Cleo and Artemis heal. I left only 1 spell on Cleo and 1 attack on Artemis (Astral Saintstrike).

Why don't you have Luster Candy on Artemis instead and then use Frolic once with Cleo instead of 2 Debilitates?
>>
How do I farm money late game?
>>
>>681386919
Nahobino's Hevenly Ikuyumi deals damage based on debuffs that are applied on enemy. So while Frolic is better that Debilitate because it takes just one cast and costs less MP, 2x Debilitate is better for my Bino.
Of course, both Cleopatra and Artemis have Boon Boost, but I will replace them with Boon Boost EX when I get more of those.

How is it better? I doubt two applications count as 2 debuffs.
>>
>>681387098
But lvl 100 is scary, I'm only at like 80.
>>
Is there a point of diminishing return for stats growth? I'm running a Phys beano with 100 Str at the moment. Should I focus on other stats instead?
>>
>>681387254
Yes, because Debilitate is -1 and 2xDebiltate is -2 on enemies.
Plus, Frolic reduces ATK and DEF, while Debilitate reduces AGI as well.
>>
>>681387471
I meant that one frolic is the same debuff as x2 debilitate.
I forgot frolic doesn't debuff accuracy because nobody cares about it lol.
So yeah, I guess debilitate would be better for ikuyumi.

There was one chain of mitamas that gave me 160k before I even sold any of the saki relics that dropped, so that one battle got me more than lvl 100 armies of chaos with luck, which took me over 15 minutes.

>chain of mitamas
With or without DLC?
I don't use DLC
>>
>>681387927
Without. I don't have it either
>>
>>681387996
Oh and why ippon? Does he have more chance to find relics like the boat guy?
>>
>>681388048
He has higher odds of finding battles, which is what you are looking for because you want to encounter mitamas
>>
>>681388132
BTW I use the leyline in the west by the ponds because there are some spots that seem to have really high odds of being mitamas there both in the water and down the cliff where it is.

Just focus on the summons first.
Also abuse aoe magatsuhi moves

If you have magic bino give him mahamaon. Hits Lillith's weaknesses and none resist so you can eventually take them all out and make her waste her turns reviving them.

The father you get into the game the more you realize Cu really is the goat

>>681388543
Severe piercing attack that also dumps their stats.
And Cu Chulainn and Scathach is the easiest to assebmle as it only needs 2 instead of 3 cats or 3 Jacks.
>>
>>681388679
always has been. I have a maxed out Cu in Nocturne and Persona 3. Great demon.
>>
>>681388679
Yeah I'm still using him. He can get like 1000+ damage crits now.
They really buffed him.
>>
>>681388652
Did you recruit Kresnik? He's super good in this fight because he's lvl 60 and matches up well.

Doesn't matter. Do his quest and he will join you anyways.

NTA
You can get Kresnik after completing one side quests.

The axiom/great will is just the giant collective of souls where every soul goes and comes from when someone dies and is born respectively.
Kingdom hearts has a similiar concept.
>>
>>681349213
Contrarianism, excessive masturbation. Really like Sonic the Hedgehog but specifically for Shadow. Legos.
>>
>>681388310
Namah and Agrat are priority. Namah with Mother Earth up is a pain and she will status the party. Agrat uses a variety of elements and crits for days. Eisheth is the easy one to deal with since at this point you should have some phys resistance and phys blocks. Lilith is running VITchad support Beano build, but if you bump off the others she has to waste time bringing them back.
>>
>>681388967
>Which essence would have that
It's a periapt.
You need to talk to a Setanta NPC in the 3rd zone to get it.
Wiki says near "Western Shinjuku"
>>
>>681388470
This just be the power o' the Irish
>>
>>681389212
I'm able to burn down all 3 of them pretty quickly. Problem is Lilith has such high HP I can't keep up burning them down and keep damaging her while keeping SP available.
>>

>did you know I got fucked by a horse and gave birth to its child
You have no right to throw shade at anyone Loki
>>
>>681387815
I feel like it would be a bit too much to be able to change every single skill. I feel like there needs to be some uniqueness to demons when you can supercharge all their stats and equip any other skill on them. It's a nice middle ground between allowing freedom of customization and letting demons have their own distinct identities.
>>
>>681389384
Doing an all Celtic god playthrough is fun. Especially Dagda of the North Star
>>
>>681385014
so what's the way to get most weaknesses? gogmagog, mc with slime essence, slime, arahabaki?
>>
I'm doing the old story before vengeance, should I do Demi-Fiend in this one before I switch over?
>>
Worst any ever made

Demons just get the skill you want and people are cheesing it harder than ever. Not fun to play
>>
>>681389971
Isn't hare of inaba weak to everything?
>>
>>681389971
Honestly, I don't know how it's even calculated.
It might count all weaknesses and add them up or it might only count different weaknesses, i.e. if you have 2 demons with fire weakness, it only counts as having one.
Never tested it.
>>
>>681390101
if you were to believe the fusion calculator it seems to add 5% damage per weakness in your active party
>>
How important are the joint skills? I don't want to feel forced to use demons. I like using ones I like.
>>
>>681390407
Not that important, just nice to have.
>>
>>681390407
I never focused on having certain sets of demons in my active party so I never ended up using them on Hard. They seem like they could be fun and powerful, but I never had any issues without them.
>>
>>681390407
Nice if you have them, but more than enough other shit you can abuse if you don't.
>>
>>681384128
is this another nocturne reference where he helps demi fiend punch everyone to death?
>>
>>681390407
You don't have to use them at all and beat the game but they enable many powerful combos so you'd be quite the fool to completely ignore them. Just use them whenever convenient sometimes things just line up nicely.
>>
>>681390407
I used frost storm just because I had all the hee hos in stock collecting exp for eventual nahobeeho fusion
>>
>>681390932
To be fair sone if them are kinda a head scratcher.
Like when the fuck are you gonna have neko shogun(lv5), cait sith(lv7) and fucking nekomata(lv36) together in your party?
>>
>>681386081
You have to play the extra game which sucks
>>
>>681391493
Can you use them with neko shogun and cait sith in your stock? Makes sense if Nekomata is active but the others aren't so you can always summon the low levels for that skill alone (even if it would be a waste of macca)
>>
>>681391493
You can use nekotama and keep the other cats in the stock, but yeah, probably never.
Only one that makes sense are the Wind and Electricity ones because Thor and Odin and Cu and Scathach are relatively close.
>>
>>681391493
I actually used lots of Grimoires on Neko shogun so that I could keep using Friegul so I just naturally ended up with all the cats
>>
>>681391610
Last Mission, you mean? I fucking loved that part, but I understand it's not for everyone.
>>

You know, a lot of these team-work based Innate skills would be a lot better if we had 6 party size just like the classic games. 4 is way too restrictive to build a team around some of these skills.
>>
>>681391737
>>681391817
You can use it as long as they are in your stock, but I don't onow about you guys bht my stock always felt too cramped to take along low level shitter demons
>>
>>681392120
Yeah. It's not as bad for the generic ones that just require type matching but for the ones that need very specific demons they're insanely niche in usitility.

Same. If they wanted me carrying around magatsuhi team fodder they needed to give me more stock space.
>>
>>681392527
I like them. Doing ultra specific runs with weird demons is sovl
>>
>>681388310
you can get the african dan that have taunt+tetrakarm or star fusing black rider and let him learn block physical
>>
>>681392585
Why do you people put exclamation and question mark before and after the sentence? It doesn't bother me, I'm just curious.
>>
>>681392585
Is Murakumo still the strongest STRbino skill?
>>
>>681393165
It never was
>>
>>681392979
>Taunt but you can choose who has taunt

Ridiculously strong abillity.
>>
>>681393129
NTA but I would guess it's so you can tell that the sentence is a question or exclamatory right away if it's a longer sentence. Like if you were reading a long quest that you couldn't tell was a question at first, it would affect the tone with which you read it.
>>
>>681393165
they new light one is still more broken,im gonna try in my ng+
>>
>>681393407
*if you were reading a long question
>>
>>681393475
>need to evade an attack to even use it
Is it really though?
>>
>>681393129
>Question marks are used at the end of interrogative sentences that ask questions. Exclamation marks are used at the end of exclamatory sentences as a means of showing great emotion or shock and surprise.
>>
>>681393550
You do? How useless.
>>
>>681393550
for what i have seen,yeah.The only bad thing is that you need something like 4 slots to make it work.
>>
>>681393550
NTA but you have the skill that guarantees evasion once for Bino. So yeah, it's good IF you know that enemy will target Bino, or use AoE attack.
>>
>>681393671
You also get a skill that guarantees an evasion.
>>681393729
I've seen it used with the 4x magatsuhi followed by charge to cheese Satan with 20 attacks per turn
>>
>>681393671
you get a skill that guarantees evasion, a passive that gets you bonus press turns on evasion and another passive that gets you strong piercing counter on evasion, STR evade tank beano is very viable
>>
I want to get a tit job from Cleopatra's fat tits. Thank you for reading.

It's a NG+ build though, seeing how fucking late you get it.

>>
>>681394073
It seems to be best for Satan and really not much else in a NG save file, yeah.
