For those who don’t know, Dharma is the Hindu concept of moral law. Essentially like “the law of good”, honour and that kinda thing. Sometimes it’s embodied by a god, who is father to one of the characters in the Mahabarata.
Satan is the guy that beat you using magic and tactics and you need to counter his every move to win or else his combo kill you. Demi-Fiend is the guy stomping your face with so much strength he does not need tactic at all.
@@gabrieldoyen692 You have to take a lot more risks when fighting Demifiend, but there are ways to minimize (well, as much as possible at least) the chance of death. Cielo's ailment weakness for one will give him the extra turn he needs to Gaia rage right after a clean summon (kill both demons at once). If someone isn't asleep switch in a reserve member with close call to take the hit. Give someone Teradyne as well, Demifiend has no resistance to earth attacks as the earth element didn't exist. Then you just need to pay attention to his demon's turn counters to prevent recarmdra/mediarahan (or Red star it and drain that pixie of mp) and you're good to go so long as you can deal with all the damage, ailments, and choke down a few random mamudoons. The best wave for damage is the first one, taunt is as much friend as it is foe. Also, having a human character can help immensely as an item bot and to provide a bit of damage + high crit rate from gun attacks. With enough excruciating planning your win ratio is actually better against Demifiend than Satan, all it takes to be screwed over by Satan is one debilitate too many at the wrong time or a string of mamudoons on a temptation round. Of course there is the impel stone, Pyrphlegathon, Godslayer method that can take him out on one perfectly timed turn at the very least bypassing temptation entirely so I still give Demifiend the title of hardest boss but Satan is more stressful lol
I literally just beat this bastard today after my 5th(?) try. (...after giving it about a month after my last real attempt). I even got hit with Temptation, turns out he won't only use that on his 1st turn, but the turn you lower him to 15000. I had to deal with that, then next turn a Dekaja, then ANOTHER Temptation. Gotta say, Demi-Fiend was more challenging to defeat than Satan. Many have said this already, but now I know first hand that Satan is consistent and can be planned around. Demi-Fiend? I had to use the Red Star Strategy against that bastard, and even then, it took my 8th(?) try to get even that far. Once there, it's *much* simpler. But *_DAMN_* these were certainly the hardest bosses I've faced in any game.
I'm pretty sure the attack Gale is using against Satan on that video is Chaturbhuja, the attack of Vishnu that wiped your party earlier when used twice.
And I thought having a boss that immediately damages you was a BULLSHIT move but a boss with MULTIPLE INSTANT KILLS insane DAMAGE and unnecessarily BULLSHIT MARKERS and just I'm quitting damage and other bs I'm in shock for real
Yeah, his turn cycle is rude. Get to +3 or gods breath, void death turn 2 and 3, void charm turn 4 all while dealing dmg, managing debilitate, healing and his "the guy with the lowest magic stat is auto dead" each turn. And the void charm turn leaves you open to mamudoon so good luck. And if he gets a turn below 1500 hp...... He casts diarahan. Restart your console it saves more time than struggling through his phase 4 skillet and dealing 30k dmg
I love watching and rewatching this one and Demi-fiend fight because 1. You're reaction are gold 2. I don't think I would be able to beat them legit, I did finish Nocturne but not legit and also I do think I need some tips for the SMT games. My way of playing is that I try to get the 1st few demons and play like this : I always switch them so they are around the same level until they don't learn any new moves and when I have 2 demons with all they learn all their moves I fused so in my opinion I do feel underleveled when I go facing more powerful demons and that I don't use a lot of fusion but also I was not using a lot of buff and debuffs until I played Persona games and learned that they are important and that I do get frustrated easily when things don't go my way. So hence why I wonder if you could gave me some tips to help me get better because I want to play the SMT and win them legit (when I said that I mean not using save state becuase in france the only game we have in PS store is Nocturne and on the Eshop 4, Apocalypse and Strange journey Redux for the SMT games so most of the other game I'll have to play them on emulator) and thanks for the videos, the tips if you do gave me some and I hope you have a nice day.
dis guy is a diff type of bs than demi-fiend. Wid demi-fiend, its on more on luck. Satan, u gotta go calculator mode. Also da dds 2 intro at the end 💯🤌
@@JeromeTelos thing is: argilla makes a much better human. that way, there are no elemental weaknesses on your lineup. she's weak to wind, whereas seraphs demon form has no weaknesses
@@kichiroumitsurugi4363 Yes, but there are two problems: First, you kinda want everyone to have max stats anyway. it's not necessary, but hightly recommended, just to take a bit of the edge off. Second and most importantly: Whenever Satan has shining icons, and ONLY then, does he buff. that is very dangerous. I fought him several times and never saw him do that when argilla was human. With Argilla having a weakness to exploit, he gets many more turns and adds a whole lot of randomness to the fight. Besides, the damage of gun attacks is inconsequential anyway and mostly serves to get the occasional crit.
Nope it's all skill tree based. Who else is in the game? Well...beside the main group not so much well known characters. It IS though one of the best stories on the SMT Spinoffs though. Same writer who did P2
@@raidouenjoyerNot really. Satan is basically Charge, Charge, Charge, Void Death/Charm, attack, rinse and repeat. There is much less leeway against Satan than with Demi
![Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga 2 Boss Satan [HARD]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/7L8fqRFxVvo/mqdefault.jpg)
Argilla is best SMT girl by far
JeromeTelos Makoto is better
Ludwin your taste is shit
JeromeTelos that man referer the protagonist of first smt, this boss is a copy of the final boss of smt
Punished Lambda its a joke you idiot
Ludwin Serph is shit too so my statement still stands 😏
“That man” is referencing Aleph, SMT II Hero.
That man, from guilty gear?

Bro, to be fair and completely honest with you, this word in hindu culture has soooo many fucking meanings and definitions it's insane.
Loving the Strange Journey music.
Hardest fight in the game (by far)
Has 7 of them
'I don't want to use a soma'
Peak item hoarding
But what IF he needs them Iater IoI
@@TheSolBlader this
@@TheSolBlader Satan has the highest stats of all DDS 2 bosses (he is a superboss). So there is no better time to spend somas
coming back to this vid and the demi-fiend one is becoming a tradition
Your commentary was funny as hell, thanks for that
Lets be honest Demi-fiend is still WAY harder
Daniel Figo by fucking miles man lol cause his ass requires actual luck to do anything. While Satan was all calculations
JeromeTelos I know this one dude who thinks Satan is harder...apparently he doesn't know how to count

I had way more trouble with Satan. With Demifiend I used the "Redstar" strategy and beat him in a handful of attempts. Satan took much longer.
aight, just came here for my yearly watch of the demi-fiend and satan video

Shut up fanfic
@@eavyeavy2864 Pfft, no! XD
Lol troll

Douglas Costa Pinheiro It is
12:32 So Satan casted mamudoon and inproved all your stats?
Thanks Satan, Very cool.
What if you want to go to heaven
But God *breath*
Your despair was at its peak
In video gaming
And I thought having a boss that immediately damages you was a BULLSHIT move but a boss with MULTIPLE INSTANT KILLS insane DAMAGE and unnecessarily BULLSHIT MARKERS and just I'm quitting damage and other bs I'm in shock for real
Void death and ailment the boss battle
Yeah, his turn cycle is rude. Get to +3 or gods breath, void death turn 2 and 3, void charm turn 4 all while dealing dmg, managing debilitate, healing and his "the guy with the lowest magic stat is auto dead" each turn.

For a canonical last boss HOW THE FUCK do you beat this? It makes no sense, every move literally makes you *I give you, Megidolaon*

Use buffs

Also da dds 2 intro at the end 💯🤌
So many years later and I never understood the "God's Breath" thing lmao
It's because Satan in SMT is from Old Testament and serves God of Law, he is not the devil here like Lucifer
@@garvielloken8494 I meant on why the instakill. Or what triggered it or what was the workaround. Never got that lol
@@MinimiB2000It triggers when on turn 4, there is no party member with +3 in all stats. If there is, he uses Dekaja instead
why did you revert seraph to human form?
Human form negates Hamaon. So if he did that in his first turn & seraph is in human form it'll end his turn whole
@@JeromeTelos thing is: argilla makes a much better human. that way, there are no elemental weaknesses on your lineup. she's weak to wind, whereas seraphs demon form has no weaknesses
@@HisHoleynessyeah seraph and cielo in demon form with argilla in human is the safest combo
@@HisHoleynessIt really doesn't matter. Argilla's magic is so high she can tank at least 2-3 Mazandynes with her weakness exposed.
@@kichiroumitsurugi4363 Yes, but there are two problems:

Yep that was the RUclips video of the Japanese version where they can easily shave off Satan health.
Champ Gary give granted the dood who did it said it took like 300+ tries cause every hit had to be a CRIT AND Satan's attacks had to all miss lol
JeromeTelos that's fucking ridiculous...
Enjoyable commentary, and a satisfying victory, very nice. What were the songs used for the video?
What ost did you use? Epic as hell!
followertheleader OST tracks from SMT Strange Journey lol
"The Fear of God" and "An Honor Beffiting That Name" both from Strange Journey and "Staff Roll" from Nocturne.
JC Little knew that I heard some strange journey battle music lol
TheFlameGamer "An Honor Beffiting That Name" is my favorite one... xD
4:02 ???
please never stop "talking" XD
Can you inherit skills like in persona series cause I use Titania surt Odin Alice with morning star norn who else is on this game
Nope it's all skill tree based. Who else is in the game? Well...beside the main group not so much well known characters. It IS though one of the best stories on the SMT Spinoffs though. Same writer who did P2
Yup you dont fuse things like in smt, persona, desu and raido. But instead it use mantra system exclusive only for dds
4:02
There is always an asian that does it better......
Demi fiend is still a better fight than this.
Are you kidding?
Satan requires more thinking power than Demi fiend
@@raidouenjoyerNot really. Satan is basically Charge, Charge, Charge, Void Death/Charm, attack, rinse and repeat. There is much less leeway against Satan than with Demi
Is that morgana?
No, that thing in on a higher plane of existence compared to Morgana. The closest “Morgana” like cat would go to Gouto back in Raidou Kuzunoha
Why do you put background music??? Totally ruined the video....
