At this rate, every single waifu is going to get their own OP video! It’s gonna be a good 2025 for SMT. Joking aside, I really do appreciate the effort you put into these guides, Jaff. Very short, sweet, and to the point. And I’m happy to be along for the ride.

[@vergilkuchiki8771]

Your brain goes "Snake lady hot" then Dancing Strikes being 3 Super Brave Blades makes your brain go "Damn hot snake lady got HANDS hands" I knew the second i read DD's skill description in the fusion calcs skill list that that move was too strong for it to be on anyone other than her.

My first thought went to having her be your healer, basically replacing your support demon with one that is slightly less effective but also a press turn generator at the same time. If only she got support affinity...

Nice video!!! Nuwa is in all of my team builds along with a few others due to her utility. I kept her unique move as well, it hits hard and is very cool when finishing. However, I run all nulls instead of resist: the enemy loses 2 press turn icons and she won’t take damage outside of almighty and pierce. I didn’t know that she remembers what’s nulled/resisted (like most women💀) but that makes my build make more sense…since I can only see logically running resists to ensure she’s attacked twice to proc her innate (turn doesn’t end due to null). My build simply replaces resist with null and uses murderous glee instead of fierce roar which I might switch to. MG almost makes certain that she crits when I need her to. I usually use support to make her a target although she attracts a lot of attention on her own❤️. Thanks for making these videos for the community👌🏾

[@jaffinator2166]

@@lordrikudouzero9119 Yup. Murderous is better suited towards the first build that maximizes Dancing Strike’s damage. But it can still be practical for the defense build

[@lordrikudouzero9119]

@ yeah I know, I couldn’t decide so I made a hybrid of sorts.

[@ryojifan]

great video! nuwa is one of my favorite doi designs and the first build is what i use! i hope this isn't a weird nitpick, but i did want to let you know that in your innate skill spreadsheet, the word "omagatoki" is spelled incorrectly under the omagatoki: booster section :-) obviously just a nitpick- it's such a great resource, and i have put so many hours into smtvv - it's been such a good resource to look through! thank you for your hard work!!

Nuwa,baal and mastema were essential to me when it came to facing the demi fiend and because when mastema gets with deadly fury a new press turn is giving plus I gave mudobarion to delete pixie if he ever dies that is what nuwa is for to resist physical and Demi fiend demons love debuffs that is what is baal is for plus give mudobarion

I guess great minds think alike. I currently have a couple demons backlogged, but I think there is a way to make Nuwa more tanky.

@jaffinator2166 1. Danu her innate gives a 15% damage reduction for hits that do not exploit a weakness. 2. For me, I gave her Diarahan so she can heal under her own power. I also gave her Killing Wind to garentee a hit. Though the Physical Pierce skill also works, just can't remember it's name at the moment.

[@pigcatapult]

(Reborn, lv99) I beat original mode Tehom with her in my party last night; same party I won the first time with except swapping her out from my x5 drain “Immortal Hare of Inaba” build. Took Tehom down in only two cycles this time. Wondering if I can adjust Hare to synergize against group attacks with her. I love the little guy (and misusing joke characters) and I want to feed him my enemies’ press turns like lettuce.

[@jaffinator2166]

@@pigcatapult wow that’s really good! Even at level 99 I always find Tehom to take forever. Glad you were able to put Nuwa to good use though!

[@pigcatapult]

@ Maybe I should do a stopwatch comparison, because Hare of Inaba takes more cycles, but they feel like they go by so much faster because Tehom just doesn’t get turns.

⁠@@jaffinator2166One question: what do you mean by “triggering freikugel/recalcitrant off Force”? When I got to 1/6 of his health, he spammed both skills, which was a very hard to deal with (beat him anyways tho).
