nocturnes difficulty is overhyped
it was the first large exposure we got to SMT that actually caught on a bit (and even then not nearly as much as persona) so people didn't know a lot of the practices of playing an SMT game like how to fuse often and debuffs etc so its gonna blindside anyone that just played like, FFX
especially since we only got the updated version, so yeah matador is probably gonna be your first strength check but on the other hand every Fiend fusion is busted as gently caress (daisoujou especially never has a reason to be replaced) and the labyrinth of amala is gonna rocket you past any main content along with providing great resources like the menu healing nue and the dungeoneering spell piasca

hard mode lucifer can go gently caress himself, but normal is pretty approachable if you have general SMT knowledge which is fairly available now

that's a shame

I still run into SP issues, even with SP adhesives. It's certainly not a cure-all.

youre probably under utilizing physical skills
generally the sp cost to heal them is less than trying to down every enemy

I noticed for Strength 10 theres a lot of guides just saying use the high counter skill car
If you feel like not using it for whatever reason its p straightforward so ill put another solution here:


Dakini (Empress) learns High Counter at lvl 52 and starts at 50, so at worst you only need 2 levels with it
Dakini x Pazuzu -> Horus pass on High Counter

Use Horus in the 4 way fusion

The Network Save slot in the save menu lets you bounce saves between PS3/PS4 versions so it shouldn't be hard for any version to carry over in a theoretical rerelease

I ended up capturing a treasure demon somehow. Is there any reason to hold on to it or should I just fuse it into something? I have the big paper samurai and I can use it to turn him into the big gold demon.

so killing treasure demons yields a lot of yen, but you should generally try to capture one of each (they get registered in the compendium and auto recruit if you talk to them)
Fusing them always results in a demon of the same arcana one step above or below
The other thing they're useful for is gallows, because their skillset is always 8 slots of some theme (every element, every buff, every debuff, every dodge passive etc), so it can help proliferate some spells this way
they also become unique accessories but ive never done that so idk if theyre any good

Up to palace 7 spoilers:

So why is the security level even a thing in the casino? Shadow Sae knows you're there. She's toying with you.

Also, how did they even 'create' a cognitive Joker for Akechi to kill in the Metaverse?


besides just being a gameplay mechanic thing, security level is basically how much of a threat the palace is assessing you as. if youre stalking around it's hard to imagine as a tangible threat, but when you keep getting caught youre creating a ruckus. This is also why the level always spikes to 99% when you send the calling card, because then its real palpable that you're gonna accomplish your goal

someone answered the second part, but the metaverse distorts a certain place but can extend beyond that distortion, so that interrogation room isnt distorted because sae doesn't really see it in a warped way, and as long as she believes Joker is there there's a cognitive version of Joker there too

I assume that gun skills go off the attack value of your gun and Haru's gun skills are good.

This actually made me realize that I spent 100 hours with this game without really understanding what any of the combat stats actually do

they do not

all attacks use the appropriate offensive stat + a damage factor
for regular attacks and shots the damage factor is the wpn power
for skills its tied to the skill itself and is what light/medium/heavy/severe/colossal refer to
