Damn his ever-changing parameters! Damn the fact I nearly died too when charmed lol.
I should've used faq more to figure out exactly its pattern (I only used it to find out how and where to fight Shiva).

Yea , in Hinduism , Shiva ( the representation of the destroyer of evil ) , one of affinity of God is known to be the best dancer, one time he got out of control and almost destroyed the universe just by dancing in a forest XD !

[@GRIMRAJ]

lol first read abt it buddy u will know then ... shiva got enraged when his other half which is his wife who self immolated cause of that he decided to destroy everything around then lord vishnu calmed him down

[@jaesthetics2251]

Look how stupid that sounds

[@moister3727]

who tf comes up with these stories

[@AraAra-pw7tl]

Shiva is *dancing furiously*

[@icetweiz]

Shiva danced crazy

[@kingoflions827]

Dancing to the sickass boss music

[@bonepawn1644]

Well, Shiva is usually Fury race, so that makes sense.

[@anders6326]

I wish Shiva danced like this in SMT 5, lol. This always stands out to me.

[@ElNath645]

*Dances to the music alongside with Shiva*

[@djsmith8930]

shiva is dancing to the song lol

[@JCM-x84]

Shiva looks like he's gettin' down to the music there...

[@lowhp_comic]

I dont know why, but staring at a gigantic, multi limbed blue man performing the most intimidating dance moves and having his torso spazzing out during the battle freaks me the f**k out.............................

+Princess Lucina Super natural beings are scary

[@Darkcelestrian]

Arjun Rajput Pretty sure we all knew that

[@rdu239]

Princess Lucina Indians love Vishnu and Shiva

@@rdu239 as an Indian I can confirm that

[@ryanp7546]

[@DaedalosC9]

Shiva be like: "You know my hips don't lie"

[@tandebingpaposma7344]

0:20 the music beat and shiva's gesture are so perfect

[@SentaiYamaneko]

Now I know why Shiva is the Lord of the Dance!

[@MoleBradRy]

LOL Shiva is dancing to the boss theme.

[@suddenlycrows]

Yep... shake it, Shiva... shake it good...

[@andretatontos]

Shiva, do you know that Seraph's demon form is actually when you and parvati fused?

[@mattsimon8352]

Ardha!

[@MegidoMon]

So he’s technically fighting himself.

[@travisoliver6741]

@@MegidoMon In the fight, Shiva himself says "Is the time not ripe, my Avatar?" It's a weird piece of dialogue, but it indicates that he's at least aware enough that he's fighting himself.

[@terrabyte3881]

Ngl Shiva do be vibin doe

[@dethkruzer]

I'm surprised you managed to survive three full turns with Seraph charmed like that.

[@Thejj405]

Shiva has been practicing the dance to this song for years. He knows where da party is at for sure.

[@kakyoin5713]

[@UpChuckles56]

Argh I've seen all your videos of this game and wanted it so bad so I finally scratched enough money! So escited for the damn game and hope to post videos of it I found DDS 2 in a Gamestop and freaked but sadly I had to order DDS 1 off of Ebay so anxiously waiting that one to play from the beggining. Awesome fight and wicked close calls. 5/5

[@VpowerSP]

He's moving his hips to the beat :o.

[@BlackHoleEye]

Oh Shiva, you and your Third Eye caused me no end of grief on my expert run. Was only about lv. 65-70 though. But still, that move is sooooo broken.

[@jasonblundelldobebussing]

Shiva: *danced crazy*

[@mothwoman2004]

Shiva knows everything, he even knows who was in paris

[@Tehmora]

At 0:20, it went well with the music... Seriously...

[@zevilktheseeker]

by the time i got the pinaka, i was already 99 with 800-900 hp with everyone and immune to almost everthing, so shiva went mad and started spamming third eyes, ragnaroks and stuff, i just used salvation-mind charge-last word-null nerve, dekunda and dejaka for safety ^^

[@TheAzuregreen]

I found it at level 55 and thought "lets give it a try" 😒

[@arcangelmichael7975]

My lord, level 99? What's was all that grinding for man?

[@zevilktheseeker]

@@arcangelmichael7975 Just bad luck i guess

[@ShadowMasterT]

Wow, that was really close... If Shiva would have used anything other than Mamudoon you'd be dead ^^' Great battle!

[@Suetakefan]

shiva loves moving around in this game now don't he?

[@ClownVonDavid]

@ix3Rukia Uh.. Shiva's male.

[@stemc1000]

probably because shiva's elemental weakness keeps shifting, and any other element other than the one weak against will auto-reflect back at the party. that's a guess though, haven't fought shiva myself.

[@wellingtonkendresky1124]

This game need Reamster or Remake for PS4 and PS5 , Pls Atlus

this is the end - uses mamudoon.....i was expecting third eye spam.........

[@BlueWilo]

I fought her yesterday, did 2230 dmg on her with Mind Charge/Reincarnate

[@agoodguy2230]

Her?

[@BigKlingy]

Seraph didn't use Salvation on the boss while Charmed? Either you're REALLY lucky, or Charm doesn't work like that in this game. (Not familiar with the exact mechanics of Charm in this game, but in most SMTs it has a sadistic habit of making you use full healing on the boss)

[@kameronjohnson3888]

... The arcana is the means by which all is revealed...

[@TheAzuregreen]

[@NecroCh]

that happend to me in Persona 3 fighting against Nyx

[@zevilktheseeker]

Salvation cant be cast on enemies, but Mediarahan/Dia can

[@bestmaniscool]

what were your skills for seraph? i saw death attacks repeled him, how is that?

[@divadiva1968]

I've thinking what Hinduism people thinking seeing this?

[@inspector4204]

vignesh 212 he's not really a bad guy, he's just testing them to see if there worthy of fighting Brahman. Plus even demons in this game that are meant to be good in religion tend to be bad guys (like YHVH being based off of the Jewish God is arguably one of the most evil demons in the series, depending on your alignment. )

[@Firion316]

From what I heard, if you "break the pattern" at any time, he insta-kills your whole party. This is a scripted death, so not even codebreaker or gameshark can stop it. It's an instant GAME OVER.

[@UdtheImp]

Cielo levels up! Pinaka? Turn Ring?

[@miracanil5490]

Where does Seraph look when he is charmed?

[@greyngo]

seraph? wtf happens in this game???

[@BlueWilo]

This boss makes me dizzy :P

[@TheShotokanWarrior]

why are they fighting Gods?

[@junioraraujo7966]

What the fuck was that ?! Kkkkkk you almost die, it was almost that she did not kill you in the first few minutes kkk

[@UdtheImp]

Thanks for the info, but I'm going with what the game calls him.

[@alicelydielmargatroid9543]

I hate Vanity -_-

[@rezorrain3651]

Shiva can kill jesus and allah in one hit

[@Nova67827]

Shiva wasn't able to kill aleph/Jesus in the smt mythology Or Axiom/God/Jenovah/Allah in the smt mythology If you're talking about the dds version of Shiva he can easily one shot aleph

[@Nova67827]

The mainline mythology is different from the Spin-off mythology

[@Nova67827]

The power Levels are way more powerful here

[@Nova67827]

Brahman is considered to be true omnipotent God in the Spin-off mythology Shiva isn't using A 1% fraction of his power he's testing you that if you're worth to face the creator Brahman Basically the context here is that seraph's universe is doomed and seraph and the gang must co-op with brahman to resolve the problem

[@Nova67827]

If you're not worthy to face Brahman as lord shiva claims then seraph's universe has no reason to exist

[@lakshaynegi82]

They will soon add narendra modi into dds 3
