There was my problem, i only had enough SP to do it like once or twice and he'd just bring them back lmao.

I had to use brainbuster to brainwash them to finish it rofl

I died like at least 5 times, extremely annoying fight.

it's so cheap when they just give these bosses 0 weakness and tons of different attacks

just becomes a boring game of attrition

Can you restart from the start of the fight/is there a safe room nearby? fighting my 3rd boss in the gauntlet atm

will piss me off if i have to start from the beginning

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Thu May 18, 2017 7:13 pm

There's no safe room lol.

by Jay29 on Thu May 18, 2017 7:14 pm

Tbf by this point they expect you have to evolved Personas for most of your team plus whatever broken af Persona you fused. Weaknesses would almost make it too easy.

It's more annoying that they stuck four mini-bosses before the final boss and no quick way to heal without wasting items or slogging your way back to the start of the area to heal in the Velvet Room.

by Firenze on Thu May 18, 2017 7:29 pm

thanks to Jay mentioning they were susceptible to curse I smashed him in a few minutes using high crit attacks Proud

now they better let me save asap..if they throw me into the final boss fight ffs

ah they did let me, nice

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Thu May 18, 2017 7:35 pm

I literally have no means of rehealing lmao.

Is there anyway of leaving and buying stuff and coming back?

by Firenze on Thu May 18, 2017 9:52 pm

final boss wasn't too hard, just really long, things were getting tense at the end as I was really low on SP across the board but thankfully I spent like 300K on replenishing items before the final dungeon/palace

think the 7th palace boss was slightly longer though

by Firenze on Thu May 18, 2017 10:37 pm

110 hours and 30ish minutes and done

loved almost every second of it which is insane

10/10

the last 6 months of gaming have been the best ever for me ffs

And you didn't even play Yakuza 0 Laughing

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 11:29 am

*bleep* lol.

I didn't save it so I'm now back to before you meet the holy grail lmao.

On the positive side maybe I can save some items this time. hmm

by Firenze on Fri May 19, 2017 4:29 pm

best track in the game IMO

so was Persona 5 easier compared to previous games? heard the other games were genuinely challenging on Normal, I only died 3-4 times in 100 hrs (and yes I played on Normal Timmeh u pos)

by Jay29 on Fri May 19, 2017 4:33 pm

Persona 5 is easier because of Baton Pass. The ability to hit a weakness/crit then pass on to another character to do even more damage and conserve SP made normal fights much easier.

In the older games if you hit a weakness/crit you could only take an extra turn with that character. So you burned through SP faster, especially for more obscure weaknesses.

Besides that, I don't think there's a huge difference in difficulty. If you're well prepared (decent levels, good element coverage on the team) you''re fine.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 6:02 pm

This is *bleep* impossible with my current items, gonna be stuck on the final boss for ever lol.

by Jay29 on Fri May 19, 2017 6:05 pm

You could just bump the difficulty down hmm

by RealGunner on Fri May 19, 2017 6:08 pm

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 6:24 pm

Not sure that's going to help tbh.

by Firenze on Fri May 19, 2017 7:38 pm

> not preparing for the final boss/dungeon/palace

sloppy IMO especially after giving me the same advice earlier on

you wouldn't need to have spent that much either, I spent like 300K and only used about 1/4th of the items

I did have GOAT Persona though

If you're desperate, bump it down to Safety. If you lose, you get an instant revive with max health and SP.

Safety is so easy you could cheese the boss with physical attacks anyway.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 7:44 pm

I did prepare tbf, I just didn't prepare as much as I needed to.

I would never have imagined I'd need so much, picked up about 20 of those give 200 health to everyone things which was enough throughout the game lol.

In any case I have done it now, pos can *bleep* off though. If I didn't enjoy the story after the fight so far I reckon that fight would have soured me on the game.

Still between a 9.5 and a 10 though.

Agree with that lol, sense of satisfaction I had when that happened was unreal.

Some of these attack animations are amazing. Shame half of them are paid DLC:

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 8:36 pm

130 hrs later I have finally finished it Proud

Spoiler:: Was a bit pissed you couldn't say goodbye to the ones that weren't maxed out, luckily there's one final cutsscene with everyone

by Firenze on Fri May 19, 2017 8:59 pm

had no idea there were multiple endings, the true ending is super easy to get anyway

yeah that was a shame, I do plan on maxing every confidant in another playthrough in a few months or so

I only maxed a few and most of them were story related

think it was Ryuji, Teacher, Doctor besides the story ones

had Yusuke at 9 and most of the others at about 6-7

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Fri May 19, 2017 9:04 pm

Multiple endings? I didn't know that either.

Need to replay now ffs.
