Is there any sort of base level bullshit used in damage calculations for Apocalypse or is grinding low level crap to end game viable?
Leo Perez
Thanks! im trying to stay as neutral as possible, but I might help her in the end since Lawbro has been sticking around for some time and she seems to be suffering.
Kayden Taylor

Chase Wilson
what happens if I refuse to open the ark?
Nicholas Ward
you open the ark
Kevin Allen
Dagda takes control of you and makes you open it
Lincoln Foster
You can't refuse
Adam Nguyen
Why does Inanna act like a dominant mom in the game?
Robert Cruz
>IVA has more funny moment than Persona 5 What happened
Caleb Moore
If you were a power hungry chaosfag, would you choose Toki as your Shin Megami Tensei?
Alexander Brooks
pretty sure you only get three outcome effecting decisions in the entire game
Jackson Taylor
No, because Toki is a cunt who drank the friendship koolaid and won't destroy the world with you. Why couldn't SOMEONE besides Dagda sympathize?
Jack Martin
>everyone keeps calling Shesha a serpent >when it is very clearly a lava flower
C'mon now.
Seriously when is this game gonna get hard? Shesha was basically a puzzle fight
Joshua Taylor
You are pretty much hijacking the Divine Powers plans for yourself and Toki just got rescued from being possessed by a freedom craving Inanna
Brandon Sanchez
>no 真・女神転生 in the OP
Joshua Diaz
>two press turns dedicated to doing nothing Apocalypse isn't even that hard
And Krishna has a bunch of human followers but none are companions because Atlus railroaded you onto peace
Julian Foster
>Shesha was basically a puzzle fight Explain
Owen Butler
I just noticed this. And OP put /smt/instead of /smtg/ and didn't even put Shin Megami Tensei.
Ryan Rogers
Around Azreal fight because he uses tetrakarn and makakarn to reflect attacks and your team is useless without weapons. Now that I think of it, what was stopping Navarre from using his skills during that fight?
Asher Green
You just sit there and stall while using basic sword attacks whenever possible since that's all that'll deal any real damage. When the only solution to the fight is the same no matter what your build is, I consider that a "puzzle" fight.
Hudson Lewis
oh and it has that awful battle theme
Henry Collins
demons at some red building in Yoyogi are ripping me a new one.
I guess im not supposed to go there yet?
Nathaniel Martinez
Maitreya was the one with followers. Atlus focus on peace doesn't work when everyone is a mindless Flynnfag who can't think for themselves
Josiah Wood
...
Ethan Powell
I want to fuse that dog.
Nicholas Jackson
Why are nip gods so useless in Apocalypse?
Nathan Howard
Because anyone that isn't YHVH or Lucifer is a joke.
Mason Clark
YHVH is a big joke since he went evil because he didn't have a Pascal the Imouto to keep him from going insane, or Nakamura power to cope with loneliness.
Jack Gomez
When and where does Toki show up?
Ian Flores
Can someone explain this to me since I haven't played SMTIV in years, and it wasn't really explained well in Final.
What's the deal with the Yamato Perpetual Reactor? Like, it allows you to travel to the expanse right? Or allows you to destroy Tokyo with a black hole right? Who made it again?
And why is Lucifer guarding it and not destroying it even though Merkabah made it fully known he would use it to destroy Tokyo? Is it impossible to destroy?
Tyler Jenkins
i made it
Levi Nguyen
Best Girl shows up 1/4th into the story when the gang needs to find a way to sneak into the Ginza temple.
Nice try Lucifer
Jacob Martinez
Holy fucking shit, SMT4A still has the bullshit with sidequests where they throw a random Japanese name at you an expect you to know where it is on the map. Where the hell is Tougu Gosho for the Futotama mirror challenge quest?
Jackson Perez
What kind of mother would Inanna be if she had the chance?
Ian Johnson
>A Japanese game has bullshit where it throws the name of a popular Japanese district at you on a map of the most popular Japanese city kek'd
Wyatt Anderson
It's over in futanari roppongi-cho emphysema
Hudson Anderson
How does Enemy Match-Up work? Not like Estoma where you can't get into low level encounters, right?
Thomas Jones
If only they localized it to take place in California, like Ace Attorney
Alexander Cruz
wtf is a smt

>Fuse Ouroboros >Keep using it, see it has another buff it learns at the very end, going a level without learning anything to reach it >"Holy shit, am I finally going to get something unique or good like Doping" >Turns out it's Maka-fucking-kaja
>What do you want? >Money >I refuse >What do you want? >Money >Take this then
Kayden Moore
>NG+ demons why
Jose White
The one with punch lasers.
Kevin Allen
Just ended the Cosmic Egg scenario, is the Dagda choice the alignment lock or is it your conversation with Stephen after the Expanse dream?
Angel Garcia
Lucy ain't interested in destroying Tokyo. White and Merkabah are. Lucy is interested in going to surface to spread chaos.
Elijah Ortiz
Why is Belial one of the few brotier demons in Final?
Zachary Walker
What skills should I look out for as I level up with a STR build?
Isaiah Collins
>2016 >still no Soul Hackers anime/OVA/movie
Daniel Scott
>What do you want? >Money >I refuse >What do you want? >3 Medicine >Take this then SO LONG SUCKER, I'M OUT!
Enjoy my being added to my "demons to kill on sight list", Balor.
Jack Clark
Chose to continue to attack medusa when given the 3 choices in the fight. YOU LITTLE PIECE OF S*******T I'LL BLEED YOUR THROATS Not ready for the censored bleep, hehehe
Connor Russell
Gives incentive to play the other route
Asher Rivera
SMT4 Apocalypse really is going full on World of Strength, even STR party members are the best.
What build is everyone using and how are you enjoying it?
STR here, but I'm not that far in so I'm not sure how well it will work out.
Logan Smith
Your fucking map has more buttons than zoom in and zoom out. Try them out dumbo.
Nathan Gutierrez
Why does everyone keep asking this? Just play the fucking game, you've still got ways to go.
Cameron Bennett
I suspect Hashino's team might be working on new Devil Summoner but not Raidou.
Brody Wilson
no! demifiend is the strongest of all!
Carter Adams
>people complaining about fighting horde and getting x2 reinforcements >meanwhile in cosmic egg I just fought the same horde 7 times in a row
Jason Martin
There's a reason for the 7 hordes: Inanna's popping out demons as fast as she can.
Jayden James
Dex. I've used this since IV No experience in Mag desu
Though the lack of Fang Breaker (still can use it but low damage) and Desperate Hit is a bummer
ALSO FUCK THIS REINFORCEMENT SHIT WHO DECIDE ITS A GOOD IDEA
Sebastian Thompson
I killed Inanna already. But hey >123k exp
Not complaining, I guess.
Gavin Bennett
Could someone give to me a SMT IV for the bonus in Apocalypse pls?
Brody Roberts
Oh, then you are probably fighting the hundreds of demons she birthed before defeat. Must've bred like crazy to fill the Cosmic Egg up with hordes.
Lucas Kelly
I just beat the game with World of Magic (contcentrate smirking Logos doing 10k on YHVH was great).
Now trying World of Strength and it's quite good now that I have gotten the Medium Phys skill. I still have hama for the smirk instakill.
What am I supposed to do against Demons that resist Phys though? Just lay back and let my team do the job? Is there a good almighty option before I get the auto-pierce?
Ryder Murphy
>random encounter >an error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart.
WHEN DID I LAST SAVE?
William Hall
I'm wondering the same thing. Buff and heal?
Eli Taylor
>hama/mudo smirking
Lol what were they thinking
Chase Jackson
Hee-Hoy /smtg/. Have you had your coffhee yet? >hoy and coffhee posting are dead.
Nolan Evans
>forgot pic
Gavin Kelly
Hoy is so SMTIV Nowafays in SMTIVA times it's Pascal and/or/vs Toki posting.
Jack Ramirez
IV's plot would be almost exactly the same without all the White nonsense.
Carson Johnson
But that's not fun it's just vs posting.
Nathan Young
I don't like coffee. The taste and smell make me nauseous after years of being dragged into Starbucks as a child by my mother.
Isaiah Bailey
Hoy posing isn't any better.
Nicholas Richardson
I'm sorry? it's not necessarily bad to hear that user. I feel like you're always the same user saying you don't like coffee.
I guess? Imo it's still more fun than "my opinion is better than yours!" but that's subjective, I suppose.
Landon Wood
Destroying it is how the black hole is formed.
Xavier Martinez
How to get into drinking black coffee?
Hunter Walker
Nope, I'm new. Well, not "new" new, I was here for a long time but after DeSu 2 was first released I took a very long break from /smtg/ other than to pop in every now and again to ask if Record Breaker's OST was released yet.
Benjamin Lee
Do you drink normal coffee? If so just slowly start applying less and less sugar until you get used to it. I used to drink it with tons of sugar but slowly I got accustomed to the taste and now I enjoy it a lot. Just don't drink too much, my head aches whenever I spend the entire day without drinking it.
Leo Green
Am I the only one who doesn't like Danu? She barely appears in the story at all, except when its convenient.
Connor Morgan
I don't care for Danu but I don't get Nozomi hate either.
Aiden Scott
anyone playing on hard first playthrough
how is the hit rate
Gavin Ward
i got my coffee right here
Samuel Sanchez
A lot of Nozomi's hate comes from the fact that she sells Nanashi and Asahi out to the Hunters Association for unsealing Krishna, then expecting them to take responsibility for their actions despite hunters clearly wanting to kill them. There's also the fact that she promises to kill Nanashi if he ever sides with Dagda.
Nathaniel Baker
you mean war? hit rate is good. everyone here is complaining about apocalypse though. i guess that one's for masochists.
Landon Reed
Nice user! Good luck.
Well yeah but what the fuck would you have done? I'd rather she straight up goes to me and says "yo, listen, you're cool but the dude inside you isn't and if he fucks up I'll have to try to kill you" than being all lovable and betraying me in the end. At least she's honest about it. Ratting them out to the Association is indeed shitty but it isn't enough to make me dislike her. Not saying people are wrong, it's just that for me it made sense, I guess.
Levi Reed
Sugar. Add lots of it.
Be very hungry, that will help you love it. I stopped drinking it black when I learnes in class that adding milk enhanced it's sleep-preventing effects and the protein made it nutritious.
Matthew Anderson
Why is it overpowered? random trash mobs are easy to clear anyway with general aoe skills
Ryder Cox
Because almost everything is weak to either of them, bosses included. They don't do set damage, they scale with level and mag.
And if that wasn't enough, they have good chances to instantly kill a different, possibly full health enemy when you're Smirking. You can end many hordes just like that if Nanashi arrives at the battlefield with a shit eating grin.
