Shin Megami Tensei 5 Vengeance - Low Level Boss Shiva [HARD]

Shiva is still locked behind a level 80 requirement in Vengeance.
No incense boosters or Sutras used, the game itself increases the demon & Nahobino stats by a lot through fusion / level up and Nahobino bench talk.
Now that the level scaling has been removed, it became way too easy.

Props to you for letting Nahobeeho get the final blow in.

[@ultimate8948]

Remember when ganesha was essential to beating this at lv80? Accursed poison saving our ass time and time again from mediarama? So glad they fixed level scaling.

At least you have three more super bosses if this one was too easy.

i remember we needed to seal shiva with the birds to win, that was a wild stream man.

Was able to beat Shiva and all but demifiend and satan on hard. I don't think I've seen anyone beat satan on hard I'm sure it's possible but the fight is absolutely brutal and one of hardest fights I've seen in megaten. I flounder for 30 minutes with a very strong endgame team and I do almost no damage and everything is very bulky so I can't stop the heals. I hope you can beat it at some point on hard buff.

Some dude defeated Satan on godborn difficulty

[@Brandt21]

@@quatrowr1280 I saw thanks to this comment. Thanks for telling me. Looks to be a pretty large amount of stat grinding in godborn as it's really easy to get incense and balms, all my attempts were hard ng on a fresh file and I didn't stand a chance ha.

I beat Satan on hard difficulty, but I did use some of the most overpowered shit the game has to offer. I played Canon of Creation first, thinking it was required, but it turns out the save file from the old SMT V would have unlocked Satan. Anyway, to sum it up
-I was in new game plus
-I used Sakuya(the DLC demon) and Masakado, along with the very strong Yabusame Shot Cerberus(press turn generator) from my original SMT V game
-The game gives a ton of incense and grimoire(also because this was the 2nd playthrough) so I made a separate save file for them-I used the HP, MP and Vitality incense on Sakuya, and the Luck and Strength incenses to Masakado. I had 99 vitality and luck incenses at that point, so Sakuya ended up having a 200+ Vitality and Masakado 200+ luck. The other incenses were around 40-50. This was in hard mode
Sakuya was capable of surviving Megido Ark (which for some reason Satan favored to target her heavily) as long as she was fully boosted and and Satan was completely debuffed.
But as it turns out, that's not even the most op thing I had in my arsenal- In my first normal playthrough of CoC, I picked up Demi-Fiend's essense. I got his affinities and got an extra essence for good measure.(I already defeated him the more challenging way in hard mode several years ago without cheesing anyway, so I felt no qualms about beating him in normal mode lol)
What really screwed Satan was Chaotic Will.
There are videos on the internet utilizing Arioch's Avenger skill to kill him with little to no stat boosting item, as well as the evasion build from the Tsukuyomi essences. I did not like the look of set up with that thing. Also, Arioch is ugly.
TLDR: I had access to DLCs, the NG+ gave me access to Chaotic Will and Masakado(whom honestly I only have beaten in Normal Mode as of today). NG+ because I thought it was impossible to get the Vengeance Superboss fight on a fresh file(I was wrong).
Without DLC, the way I beat Satan should still be possible with Idun, but you will burn through your MP restoring items much quicker, and the fight will overall take much longer.

How do you have boon boost ex? Also the outfit swap? Is Agrat from canon of Vengeance? I went for creation for my first playthrough

[@Sidesody]

Agrat and the new look are canon of vengeance only

[@victorsouzacostasilva2761]

Boon boost EX come from Beelzebu

@@YHVH404 Yes, there are only two monsters with this Skill, Shiva (lvl 99) and Beelzebub (98)... so your option is to Fuse them to rank down to your desire monster, or level up them to take their essences.
Since both are pretty high level, I think its worth to take one of the essences and Use in to your Elemental and register, because elementals can create anything with fusion :)

[@adambeard8241]

Can you re-fight Shiva in this one?

[@Gabry_deleto_blue]

I don't think so
