Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance - Satan Superboss Fight [Godborn HARD]

[@jaffinator2166]

Dang Titania with the double dodge

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

That was painful.

She really wanted to be sacrificed

"I'm you, but for support"

[@Ziroikabi]

Godborn Hardmode Solo isn't as bad as you think. I have a strategy and it worked, depending on rng it can take a short or longer time but my run took 40 minutes. If you want me to explain how I did it I can try explain! My video isn't public yet its just uploading

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

I'm interested. Did you use Paraselene Blur? This is my only theoritical good shot, with potential crits and use of the Light weakness he can have.

[@Ziroikabi]

Not at all! I went a full Figment Slash build High phys, phys and crit zealot I try to think of him and his minions as a collective health pool. A figment can do 2-3k depending on buff state which is good you want damage on him but he only heals the remaining hp of a summon so except for the 2 summons that give him a heal magatsuhi you hit them for upwards of 5k damage. While not hurting Satan himself that means 5k less heal when he consumes so while you didnt hurt him with that move hitting him for 2k would actually make him heal 5,000 more so its a net positive by hitting all his summons to 1 hit from death since they have lower stats. I even leave the Arahabaki, Ganesha and Fafnir alive usually hit him then impale then hit them a bit. Its better if he takes the affinity of a normal one so you can use the magatsuhi for 4 + 1 big hits for 10k+ total but leaving them low hp is insanely useful. They also have a pattern of using buff/debuffs/kaja/kunda on the turn where he consumes someone My build was Figment Inflaming Impaler Boon Boost EX Dragon Eye High Phys Phys Crit Zealot The only way this strategy gets a little funky is if he decides to keep spamming resistant phys enemies but even then a few impaler moves means he wont actually gain too much hp from one and by the time you get a neutral phys one all the minions will be at like no hp and you can just smack him into oblivion!

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@Ziroikabi That's very nice! Looking forward to seeing the fight.

[@raoulLupin]

Any alternatives to using satan, or does it need to be him? I was thinking Mc, sakuya, masakado and beelzebub?

[@raoulLupin]

I was thinking mc to run a dodgetank build with luminescent and paraselene, masakado to be main damage with Freikugel and his unique, sakuya for a healer and beelzebub as a debuffer

[@ababyharpseal6534]

​@@raoulLupin I'm late as hell, but this is very close to what I did - Masakado was my DPS and Sakuya was my healer, though I used Shiva as my buffer instead of Beezy solely for the extra chip damage from Tandava. Yoko is another good option for a buffer/debuffer in place of Satan thanks to her unique skill, but Beezy probably works just fine provided you're not hurting for DPS.

[@BorsPepsi]

Young Man i need advice, should a get rid of my glee skills and critical zealot in exchange for mirage, lunar hurricane, the skill that gives an extra press turn when dodging and that light skill you can only use after dodging? this might be a really dumb question but I'm a really dumb guy.

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

If you go magic, jsut keep Critical Zealot, and take the Glees off. Lunar Hurricane is good if the hardest enemy you beat is Satan (aka not doing the level 999 challenges), so keep the glees for it. Luminescent Mirage is good too, and both passives for evasion, you should get as well.

[@BorsPepsi]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 Forgot to mention that I'm strength based as well, Lunar Hurricane sounds like my go to but "number of hits depends on user's and target's agility", i put every single stat i gained into strength so should a respec or is it ok?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@BorsPepsi You need better Agility yeah, because while 3 hits is still fine, it's weaker than a Murakumo, resistances nonwithstanding.

[@BorsPepsi]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 I have 86 Agility and 227 Strength, should i split half my strength to agility?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@BorsPepsi Hmm... with his vitality, you might wanna keep strength. Probably stay with Murakumo but keep the evasion passives and Luminescent Mirage. For Satan, you should count on your demons, and use multi-target attacks. I actually think a Magic build with Moonlight Frost would be to your advantage for this specific fight, as you also need to damage his demons a lot, so he doesn't outrageously heal.

[@1hardyparty]

Did you honestly grind for those stats?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

Yes. I made a tutorial on how to.

[@barryjamesmusicPH]

I copied your build haha thanks for this. I hope I can beat Godborn Hard Satan too. may i ask... what is the style for this fight? should you kill ASAP the summoned allies? or just let Satan kill em? thank you.

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

No problem. Glad it helped you! I suggest kill or at least weaken them red ASAP. Do not let him eat Hariti or Sarasvati though, because the Magatsuhi skill he'll use is a full HP/MP heal. Since I used a Force build in this video, I had him eat Arahabaki for extra weakness.

[@barryjamesmusicPH]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 so... it is ok to NOT kill any summoned allies except Hariti and Sarasvati, right? then i just focus un damaging Satan?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@barryjamesmusicPH Yup. Weaken them enough so the HP absorb isn't so high. AOE are good for this.

[@barryjamesmusicPH]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 AOE you mean multi target attacks? so you damage 2 allies at once, right?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@barryjamesmusicPH Yup, this kind of attack. This is why I use Great Lament even though it doesn't do that much damage.

[@GanonAutumn777]

I was planning ti make satan a mix of support and dps since shiva was my support demon but,is support satan the way to go?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

I went for support but you can use him for damage too. Megido Ark, however, is bad damage, unless you fight more than 4 mobs at a time, I guess. I think I'm gonna remove him from my main team and go for another play, because I found another support that could turn my new build around. TL;DR: Satan is good at both damage and support, and his innate resistances are very good.

[@GanonAutumn777]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 ill probably replace megiddo ark with either better weakness coverage or something like freikugul But ive yet to beat satan so ill save my experimentation until my godborn playthrough Thanks for the answer tho ^_^

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

@@GanonAutumn777 Well, good luck on beating Satan to unlock Godborn first :3

[@beaahhh169]

How much did you grind for all those stats sheesh 😭

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

A dozen hours, at most.

[@chaoswingsandleaves9349]

Trust me it is not nearly as long and tedious as it used to be

[@blastmole299]

Godborn helps a lot for stat grinding by being able to buy boosters with Macca

[@barryjamesmusicPH]

@@blastmole299 boosters? what are they pls share

[@Alan_Pikachu]

@@barryjamesmusicPH you can buy insence/balms with macca in godborn

[@zylorixx810]

I went into this with all my OP demons then when i hit the first attack did like 4 damage then check his stats he has like 800 vit I went yeah no lmfao

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

Yeah, honestly go at him with max stats if you want a fun fight. He's a huge stat check and the kind of boss i'd never do on low-level runs.

[@DistressedCrab]

Why are Satan’s attacks so weak?

[@kaiserkreuz2110]

Because I have max Vitality.

[@DistressedCrab]

@@kaiserkreuz2110 Ohh gotcha, thanks!

[@letsplaygames97]

how did you get stats like that?
