Always fuse demons once you out-level them. Don't waste your time trying to level them up.

Also try to cover all the elements you can in your team comp while keeping the amount of weaknesses your team has to a minimum.

If you're gonna go with a physical damage build, raise dexterity instead of strength since dexterity helps your physical attack skills way more than strength does.

This game is pretty brutal at first but after the second major boss it eases up considerably.

Look up a non-spoiler guide on the Neutral ending. It's the best path in terms of content you can get.

I don't plan on looking up any guides, maybe I will try it on a second run

have fun, and try to get a full team as soon as possible. makes the game a lot easier when you're not just wiping every enemy turn

dexterity affects the damage from your physical skills a lot more than strength, so pump dex if you want to do a phys build.

this char is good
if you are going to do a physical build, you should do dexterity, instead of streangth. the dexterity manufactures the increase of damage in Skills many more than does Stregth.

OK OP there's something important you need to know. If you want to make an effective physical build you should level up dexterity instead of strenght. It increases the damage of your physical skills more than strength does. I hope this helps.

when enemies are afoot, you must reallocate the demons from the field to your man in order to revolutionize the making of enemies deceased. place your demons in the Special Room together to make them happy, and initiate a new Demon.

One more question, if I'm going to do a physical build should I level dexterity instead of strength as it increases the damage of my physical skills more than strength does?

I am poo poo at the fusing thing, I always have a bunch of crap personas and a few kickass ones I use constantly.

I have made my social links pretty strong overall which helps compensate for my general idiocy otherwise. It hurts when you are a couple of levels away from a useful move though
