[@potatistatis6709]

Not only that, Morgana's max HP in royal (with Diego) is 492. The Demi-Fiend can easily deal that with a single attack. Especially with charge, or if we go by DDS rules; a single gaea rage does 3000-30 000 damage. If he can target everyone at once, he wins. Unless he misses even one.

Morgana would be able to do damage to Demifiend with his slingshot, here's why. Raidou and Dante use guns, but there is not a gun element in nocturne. In DDS there are two new elements, being gun and earth. Since they were not in nocturne, he is not immune to those elements. The slingshot is considered to be a gun. We can conclude that he is vulnerable to the slingshot, and the Morganas may have a chance to win as a result.

[@holdeezroger]

A couple cracked circumstances in which the Demi-fiend can win to consider: 1. Makarakarn: In the games this effect lasts one turn, so it's obv not permanent or even prolonged. It also reflects a single spell per cast, but imagine DF parrying Garuladyne spells a la Daigo Umehara, or even just reflecting the barrage back into the horde of Morgs. 2.

[@least.insane.femboy]

Demi-fiend wins due for a single reason: stalling. Hear me out, demi-fiend with repel physical and repel wind. practically anything the morganas do will be reflected back at them, and they'll be in a constant state of healing. after a while, they'll run out of SP and be stuck in a struggle situation where all they can do is attack, which will be reflected back at them. guns? 1 answer: Boogie Woogie. Boogie Woogie is a physical skill that is inflicted via gun, meaning gun skills are actually physical skills to demi-fiend. this directly combats the idea of gun spells/abilities because as stated in the 1st palace, guns work based on the target's cognition. if demi-fiend sees guns as a physical skill which is to be reflected, then it will be reflected due to his repel physical skill I rest my case.

[@aidanklobuchar1798]

It seems like the question boils down to in-universe power vs. in-game power. Using the latter, the Morganas have a real chance. Going by the former, Demi-Fiend punched out a multiverse and then went on to throw hands with a Lucifer who should be the fourth strongest thing around (behind The Great Axiom, Stephen, and YHWH), at least with how he's depicted in Nocturne (I'm aware certain games downscale Lucifer, but in Nocturne, he's clearly a big deal, clearly above the other chief angels (Michael, Metatron), demons (Beelzebub, Satan), and even entities like Kagatsuchi. So by in-story power, I'm pretty sure he can't even feel Morgana.

I swear, every time Demifiend comes up in this sort of discussion people forget that his actual vanilla level cap is 255, and because of the difference in levels and smt-verse damage formula a level 99 character would barely scratch a level 255 one

[@someguy4405]

10 damage might be a different destructive capacity in persona 5 than it is in smtn

[@mads_in_zero]

Even assuming Demi-Fiend has the Masakados Magatama equipped, Mrogana has a damage source available - as seen in DDS, Gun damage can still damage through Masakados, because SMT3 doesn't have gun. If we assume Demifiend is capped at 999 HP (a fair assumption, since you're mentioning his 255 level cap, something that doesn't apply in his DDS bonus boss, even though he has more HP there), there are 1000 Morganas. So even if each bullet only deals 1 damage due to the sheer level difference, they have a guranteed kill. If we use Demifiend's DDS HP pool, we have 18,000 HP to deal with. All of Morgana's guns have exactly 5 rounds, so assuming he doesn't have a magazine upgrade from Gun Customization, each Morgana can fire for 5 damage. This is slightly optimistic, but even Morgana's leas accurate gun has 90 accuracy, so I think it's fair to say that 1000 Morganas could deal between 4000-5000 damage with nothing but gun spam. This isn't quite enough, but if we give Morgana the best possible gear he can (Demifiend is already packing Masakados), we can increase his odds. If we let Morgana use his ultimate gun, Sudarshana EX, his bullets have the High Dizzy trait - from having played a lot of P5R, I know that if you inflict an ailment in the middle of spamming bullets, _and_ the ailment can be technical'd, you can do so starting from the next shot. Gun element _can_ cause technical damage off of Dizzy. Again assuming Morgana has the best gear possible, Joker will have Maxed the Phantom Thieves Technical Rank, guranteeing a knockdown on a technical. Now, an All Out Attack would normally deal an appreciable amount of damage even to a boss, but Demifiend is level 255 - but on the flip-side, there are 1000 Morganas, so their all out attack would have more power packed into it than a normal one. 250 times more powerful, if I'm running my maths right. I don't know how to reliably calculate the odds of this knockdown occuring (90% bullet his, high dizzy procs, another bullet hits), or how much damage an All Out Attack would do. But with enough luck, I think the Morgana Hoarde could turn it around. A perfect victory for a trickster!

Persona 5 also has the Psy and Nuke elements, which don't exist in SMT3, and thus would be able to damage the Demifiend no matter his equipped magatama.

Bold of you to assume that the battle takes place in the Metaverse. Yes, it would be incredibly unfair to have the fight take place in the real world, but since he's an actual demon (as opposed to a human or shadow) I'm not sure that the Demi-fiend can even enter the Metaverse and besides.....is he really going to play fair? Like any mainline SMT protagonist, he's a stone cold MFer who only survived to see the end of his game by ruthlessly exploiting the weaknesses of his enemies and killing two former friends. I think it's more likely that he'll kick down the door to LeBlanc and punch 1000 housecat Morganas into a fine red paste one by one while Sojiro and the Phantom Thieves look on in horror, powerless to stop him. Also if he's got his demons, Demi-fiend can just wipe them all out with Beelzebub's Death Flies, easy win GG.

[@GambeTama]

Just some thoughts I had on the matter: 1a. We can allow the demi-fiend being vulnerable to gunfire, but Morgana has some wacky slingshot. If you go by Digital Devil Saga, where the characters are rocking a full arsenal of some high class weapons, including magic ones, they still could barely scratch this guy. The best bullet they had was the Magatama shot, which is some weird magical anti-demon round, and the damage on that (with a sniper rifle) is around 1% is his max hp. Also, the DDs crew has seemingly infinite ammo (because they are soldiers, I guess), while the Phantom Thieves have limited capacity per encounter at best, so this strategy is only so good for so long. 1b. If you also want to look at it, P3 makes Aigis' guns and Yukari's bow pierce damage, which is repelled by tetrakarm. The SMT4A thing was likely an homage to the Magatama not including gun damage at the time. 2. While the Phantom Thieves did take down Yaldaboth, it was more of the MC's doing with Wild Card shenanigans that scored the win, because when they tried rushing the guy, he simply deleted them at will. They had to turn his powers off just so they could actually go to the finishing blow. Admittedly, the Demi-fiend hasn't killed a being like Lucifer, but he did kill several gods in their own right during SMT3 (the patron gods of the different reasons, as well as the Kagutsuchi, a creation elemental, and embodiment of the "great will"). And depending on your situation, he either went toe-to-toe with Raidou Kuzunoha, or Dante, which is a ludicrous achievement in its own right. There were also the fights with the Four Horsemen, Metatron, Beelzebub, the Trumpeter - this guy's hit list is a whose who of Heaven and Hell's finest. And then there was that wrestling match with Thor! 3. If we do consider combat mechanics, then this can go one of a few ways: - If we consider this a proper 1 V 1000 match, with all participants present, then Demi-Fiend has a clean shot with most of his almighty arsenal. Gaea Rage, Deadly Fury, Magma Axis - this guy has more than enough ways to ruin someone's day easily. And even if all the Morgana's ran revives, if 500 die, and the other 500 are reviving, then that's 1000 turns wasted. - If we think of this as a gauntlet run of Demi-fiend against a number of squads of Morganas, then they probably stand no chance. In such small amounts, he would probably eat them alive. - If we consider this like the actual tournament of power, where range is an issue, then Demi-Fiend is still basically running against multiple Morgana squads, since the further away ones can only do so much. If that was the case, then AOE attacks would not only hit the squads, but also do collateral damage to the further out ones too, because this guy really doesn't seem like the type to give a damn. 4. I know this is more of a subjective thing, but Digital Devil Saga's fight with him had a squad of soldiers, with demonic powers, at the PEAK of their efficiency and tactics, and they only equated to an inconvenient NORMAL BATTLE for this guy (admittedly an endgame one, but still). And in SMT4A, he was literally level 125. Additionally, depending on the situation, he did rock Samerecarm and/or Mediarahan. I would buy this, since the rest of his setup seems geared toward a physical build, so a healing spell to dump the MP into would make sense (and recall that he has 2 less skill than normal in SMT4A). If is a thing, then there is no hope. I guess I side with Demi-Fiend in most cases because he just seems to be in such a maddening tier above people like most of the Persona characters, that I can't imagine many of them having what it took to put this guy down. A guy that Satan believed could easily be made strong enough to actually body God.

[@PK_Scratch]

Yeah, but we need to choose one form and apply it. If we have Demifiend at his prime in SMT 3, it's NG+ with 2 press turns allowing two actions. If the Morgana army can heal the entire army with 1 salvation, then Gaea's Rage affects all the Morgana's. Also the power to summon demons is a natural power of the Demifiend, so if we go with all of his powers, then would we allow Demifiend to start the fight like normal with his demon party pre-summoned? Or are we assuming Demifiend has his entire stock of demons dead and no revival items? But if we say he has his demon summoning power, then he can turn over the number issue easily and really screwing over the Morgana's.

I'm personally wondering how "innate" Maruki's strongest power level is, since he spent a month with his Palace artificially attached to (and drawing power from) the Depths of Mementos. Before 12/24 when the PT subconsciously allowed Maruki to take Yaldy's place in control over Mementos, his "Actualization" power was only single-target amnesia (Rumi) or hypnosis (Sumi). I read some wiki trivia that Adam Kadmon is only huge since it's inside Maruki's own Palace (so it'd be normal-sized everywhere else). Should his power-level be capped at what only he himself can do (awaken to Azathoth and Adam Kadmon, limited Actualization), or what controlling all of Mementos allows him to do (all the ludicrous dead-resurrecting, personality-altering, reality-rewriting bullsh*t he can make happen).

I should also note that any of the Digital Devil Saga gang could also solo the hoard of morganas. Edit: After watching the video, I do think you are correct that the Demo fiend is vulnerable to shit not in nocturne, which is also shown in DDS he is vulnerable to earth. However, if we are including other game bullshit, then we should also include the bullshit that the DDS fight has. Near unlimited crits, almost never misses, almost always hits statuses, has a 9999 damage attack he can use at will. I do think that the DDS fight is a pretty one to one to how an actual fight would go as he is actively changed for the DDS system, only having 2 demons at a time instead of 3 among other things, and he still kicked their asses into oblivion. Imo, the fight is basically impossible as the Demi fiend will eventually use his full powers and nuke the shit out of the morganas.

Considering game mechanics, the Demi-fiend wins for sure. We could disregard party sizes to let all 1000 Morganas be on the field at once, but the Press Turn system has caps for the amount of turn icons you can have. So unless the Morganas have abilities that grant extra moves, they'd only have 7-8 full icons to work with before it goes back to the Demi-fiend no matter how many there were on the field. And even if we disregarded the turn icon limit, the Demi-fiend's Gaea Rage still has a critical rate of 30% and an evasion rate of 3%. So after using it once he'd take out roughly 970 of the Morganas and get ensured criticals which would give him a half-turn to spare. Then he just does it again on the remaining 30 and bewm. Done. The only way the Morganas could win would be if you threw out the Press Turn system altogether, removed the caps on everything and made them go first. But for SMT and Persona characters that just won't do at all lol

I'm of the opinion that the Demifiend wins regardless of if you're talking gameplay or not. If you don't bring in things like debuffs or weaknesses, Demifiend still has a physical nullification of all things except certain spells. And if you want to talk _with_ gameplay mechanics... well why not just make demifiend level 255. I'm pretty sure at that point not being immune to gun at that point means nothing and he'll probably move first, use his turns for a buff and AOE the morganas to death. If you want to argue that with maximum vitality the morganas do at minimum 1 damage it will literally take all 1000 morganas at least hitting him to win.

[@connorclarke6974]

If the Morganas were going up against the Demifiend from DDS1, then Demifiend could theoretically win every single time. Gaea Rage in that game does 9999 damage and I'm pretty sure can't be dodged by normal means. The only way the Morganas would win is if they were to go first or if they all had an accessory that gave them endure. I'm pretty sure turn order is determined solely by the agility stat in most megaten games (or at least the ones relevant here), but it gets a little fuzzy when you realize that the maxed stats you can obtain are different in every game. In Nocturne Demifiend's stats cap at 40, while in P5 stats cap at 99. Now let's assume that Demifiend has maxed stats. Would the Morganas go first because they have 64 agility compared to Demifiend's 40, or would the Demfiend go first because his agility is maxed out? This gets worse when you consider that when Demifiend shows up in SMT4A he has 161 agility out of 200 (technically it caps at 400, but the soft cap is 200 so lets go with that). So would you calculate they're agility by the raw numbers or by how close it is to the cap? So in short who ever goes first most likely wins. Also something I just remembered while typing this is the fact that when alone Demifiend has 2 press turns. So that means he can Gaea Rage twice or mediarahan and Gaea Rage in the same turn (this also nullifies any endure accessories that the Morgana's could have). Anyways great video. i always enjoy the silly power scaling videos and hope you do more in the future.

I'm taking the side of Demi-Fiend not nulling gun because he also doesn't null earth attacks in DDS, but I don't think that even a thousand pebbles would hurt him considerably. If we'd be talking just gameplay-wise, the Morganas win unless Demi-Fiend kills them quickly (he should still be faster than them so he could wipe them before any sukunda spells are cast).

I'd take the 4A stats of Demi-Fiend to be canonical for the sake of this matchup, considering its resistances it's clearly an attempt to stat Demi-Fiend with Masakados equipped in the context of an SMT system with a physical/gun distinction. Edit to this section: I've seen a user (TheTestoyer) in this comment section argue that Dante's gun skills are considered physical in Nocturne. While that is true and a meritorious argument, I think the distinct properties of Masakados as treated in a different game are more relevant to this matchup than Nocturne's treatment of gun skills. Other than its guest character, guns have no presence in Nocturne. I'm inclined to believe that for reasons of development convenience, Nocturne's developers found it to be much easier to fit the gun skill they made for their guest character in a pre-existing damage type rather than construct a new one for a single attack. That would have given them the choice between making that skill physical or almighty and I can't disagree with them that physical fits better. I'm sure the Masakados Demi-Fiend vs. Dante matchup wasn't in their minds for a second when they made that decision as the last Dante fight is probably 10-20 hours of gameplay before you could attain Masakados. I think people drastically overrate Demi-Fiend in this matchup, while his skills are impressive they do not seem like they're likely to one-shot Morgana outside of maybe Freikugel, but that costs 17% of his HP to hit a single target (who would then be likely to get revived). If he goes for a distributed damage strategy (i.e. attacks that target all enemies), a Morgana will almost certainly survive and be able to Mediarahan to recover all damage. Demi-Fiend's combined HP and MP pools will deplete faster than the Morgana horde's. Even if we assume skills that would benefit him without any HP or MP cost, like attack all (and assume that goes beyond the max number of simultaneous enemies in Nocturne up to 1000), there's just no way that he'll be able to counter Morgana's abilities to collectively recover. The only way Demi-Fiend wins that battle of attrition is if he does attack all attacks until almost every living Morgana is out of SP and then Demi-Fiend kills the remaining Morganas that have SP. That would have to assume the Morganas don't try to use Wind Break or the slingshots (if actually not phys), because if they do that, Demi-Fiend will also have to concern himself with the possibility of his health depleting off of being attacked (and/or waste MP to mitigate that via self-buffing). I like Demi-Fiend better but there is no way the Morganas don't stomp him.

heres a fun video idea: if you were to be able to make a party comp with every single main party persona character (including P1 and P2), with the only rule of 1 nav and 1 wild card, what would the most broken team you could make?

[@cesarcastillo7129]

Yuki/Arisato is definitely the most broken character

[@dokkanbattleplayer2921]

@@cesarcastillo7129 Nah Tatsuya suou is stronger

[@aresrivera9744]

I would love for you to talk about how overpowered maruki is. Especially since according to Morgana “maruki is on A whole another level compared to yaldobaoth “

[@faustineli375]

The one thing holding back Maruki was himself - he really didn't want to kill you. If he was actually unchained ... yikes.

[@drasticplastic1218]

He's basically Alien X at the end of Royal and that's before he even awakens or fuses with Adam kadmon, who's even stronger. "He could blink and we'd be gone."

@@drasticplastic1218 especially considering The possibility of him being superior to yaldobaoth. Who was able to not only defeat Lavenza, but suppress her memory and split her half and Seal away Igor and claimed the velvet room for his own . Basically saying “ screw you Philemon” and Philemon didn’t do nothing probably because he couldn’t do anything him. And maruki also revived people soooo maruki solos nyx ? Lol
