This updated release seeks to right all the wrongs of the original.
Before we begin, we should note that we aren’t saying these demons aredefinitivelywho you should choose.
There are plenty of great options.
Rather, we’re mulling over our personal favorites.
Her unique skill,Die For Me!, strikes foes randomlytwo to six times with medium-rated damage.
Alice hasDark Pleroma, which boosts dark-elemental attacks above their normal capacity, so yeah, she’s unstoppable.
Alice’ssky-high magic statmeans these attacks will hit like a truck.
She can also use theFreikugal EXMagatsuhi skill, which is asevere level-based single-target Almightyattack.
We’ve seen over 1,000 damage from it even with her level still in the forties range.
Cons
Alice’sstrength stat is abysmal, so don’t expect her to do much there.
However, Alice learnsResist Light, which you should definitely keep.
Suddenly, she’s not only absorbing dark, she’s even shrugging off her major flaw.
Hell Biker
Hell Biker is also aspecial fusion.
In his case, you’ll needKelpie, Andras, and Angel.
First, take a look at those innate resistances.
Hell Biker is naturallyresistant to fire, force, light, and darkwhile having only one weakness: ice.
He squares off well against plenty of foes.
Hell Biker’sagility stat is excellent, soaccuracy and evasion are both above-par.
This is solid stuff, but there’s more to it than that.
Which means, a lot of them.
And since you canpump him with agility incense, it can get pretty wild.
We also love the fact that he’s got no fewer than three unique skills.
Put together, Hell Biker makes a fantastic crowd-clearing mid-game tough guy with a rad design to boot.
The big one’s the barrier of entry.
Hayataro
Once again,this is a special fusion.
Creating Hayataro involvesfusing Inugami and Take-Minakata.
Hayataro is a very good pupper.
That’s all, no notes.
As it happens, Hayataro’sWitness Me special skill,raises accuracy and evasion by two stages whiledrawing enemy aggro.
This, too, synergizes neatly with other aspects of Hayataro’s kit.
He’s no slouch in Shin Megami Tensei 5, either.
Yoshitsune’sunique skill, Hassou Tobi, strikes eight opponents at random forweak physical damage.
He also learnsRetaliate, which grants a possibility for him tocounter all strength-based attacks.
Unlike the more traditional Counter skill itself,Retaliate hits with medium damageinstead of weak.
Well, compared with some of his outings in other SMT titles, Yoshitsune’s a tad underwhelming.
Perhaps that says more about how mighty so many of this title’s late-game demons can be, though.
Yoshitsune’sunique skill, Yumi Nagashi, can be pretty situational.
For her, you’ll needHua Po, Ame-no-Uzume, and Parvati.
Idun is one of the best support-centric demonsin Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance, hands down.
Hermagic statis frighteningly great, which bolsters not only herconsiderable healing capability,but her offensive potential as well.
Golden Appleis Idun’sunique skill.With it, she’llrestore HP to the party while simultaneously boosting all stats by one stage.
One stage isn’t quitetwostages, the max, yes.
But it’s still a heck of a deal.
