_Boomstick Gaming is the haven for core gamers who value gameplay mechanics and systems, because that's what continues_
_to make anything from 8-bit to 8k, equally enjoyable. Consider sticking around on the channel if you fall into that category! -Alex_
This is definitely one of the better tips and tricks videos on RUclips. So many of them of them say something like “exploit weaknesses” or “fuse your demons”. This one is actually helpful.
That's the entire goal of my channel! I go out of my way to make "real" tips. Not, "I got assigned this game" tips.
Completely agree with this comment. The tips about reducing turn count if I hit 2 enemies with weak attacks and 1 gets blocked and the other about being able to change demons out and pass the turn simultaneously to keep the turn going is gold. Thank you
Right? Like, no sh*t
My jaw literally dropped when I found out about the reverse compendium fusion. As someone who likes to try and collect all the demons in these types of games, this is a blessing!
Can someone explain to me again how that works exactly please? I don't think I got it so far
@@Raven22486 basically the reverse compendium fusion looks through both your current demons and the ones you already have registered to use to fuse into the demon you want.
Granted It can be preeeetty expensive, but I’m not far enough to tell if macca becomes a nonissue. I may have to experiment with that magatsushi that greatly increases macca and exp gain
@@m.a.dmatt6689 literally one of the best thing ATLUS gave us
@@m.a.dmatt6689 I felt the same exact way. For all previous games, I'd use fusion charts like the one in the Nocturne guide, then calculate the levels, etc. Reverse compendium fusion is a huge improvement.
A good tip for recruitment if you have no available slots, try and recruit the demon anyway, if you are succesfull it will of course not join, but if you talk to anotherone after you made some space it will auto join. I love that this happens.
Yes, this saves us so much hassle. Same happens when the demon refuses to join you due to level. After your level is high enough they'll auto-join you upon talking.
WHAT!?! This is my first SMT game, thank you!!
Yup I just got a demon to join me after being under leveled.
a random tip for fusion, elementals can be used for a special type of fusion you're not told about, that can upgrade or downgrade a demon into another one from the same family. like using a flaemis would turn a "beast" nekomata into a higher level "beast" orthos, where as an aquas would make it into a lower leveled "beast" inugami.
I never understood those elementals!
The game actually explains this, but you have to look it up on the World Of Shadows menus... which I didn't do until near the end of the game. Haha
I wasn't gonna watch anymore SMT5 videos before I play it myself, but your videos are extremely well made, half of this I didn't even know from watching other peoples guides and tips.
I've been watching your videos for a long time, just wanted to say thanks. 90 % of guides are like "Make sure you target enemy weaknesses! Did you know you get another action when you do that?!" Like how does that help?!?
Your videos consistently show me at least one thing I didn't know about, so appreciate it man.
If you have an almighty damage ability, you don't need to use Spyglasses on the Mitama enemies since almighty damage will deal full damage to them regardless of their weaknesses/resistances.
Wow this actually didn't occur to me and I've played other smt games before. I kept thinking I could only target their weakness. Also afraid of them escaping to try any other ways 😂 thank you!
But its not worth to use almighty dmg since it get reduced dmg even to almighty. Its better use item shard which cost cheap and can be covered by money from battle with mitama alone.
@@JimzJimmy Almighty damage has worked better for me; you don't have to worry about the AOE damage of the item losing you press turns with it.
They do actually resist it, it does work at higher levels with the stronger almighty attacks though. Mostly only on first area mitamas
Almighty is actually resisted. If you are fighting lvl 60 mitama, almighty is not viable
This video is extremely helpful since this is my first Shin Megami Tensei game. I had only played Persona 4 Golden and 5 Royal before.
great!
Should have started with devil Survivor 1N2 but I think u would be fine cuz this video is really helpful and make the game really easy
Pro tip: Inherit Aramasa (8 light phys attacks) skill from the Aogami type-1 essence you find in a yellow chest early on. It only costs 10 MP and each hit has its own chance of critical hit.
And then get rid of that skill once you get to world 2 because it becomes too weak lol
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 and you also get wrath tempest soon which is just aramasa but better
I was so confused when I first saw that in my essence box. I thought that if I fused it it would disappear forever and it would be an important end game item.

Just wanted to say, this is the first video of yours I've watched, but as a long time SMT fan, this is are some really cool tips. Some of the stuff I knew, but a good amount I didn't and that's pretty cool. I really appreciate that you respect the viewer and assume that they'll get the basic concepts of the combat system, and instead go for the more interesting tips.
Here is my unofficial number 13. Even if you don’t have the right level requirements or your party is too full to recruit whatever demon you want, still do it. If you do a successful negotiation even if you don’t meet the requirements, the demon is now “reserved”. If you go find any of the same demon after you level up to match it or you open up a spot, that demon will remember and instantly join you.
Great tips!
Thank you!
welcome!
Great tips here. Thank you, sir. I've been into SMT since Nocturne, but there is so much here that's new.
This video has the best SMT V tips ib RUclips.
It helped me to undestand a lot of thing i had no idea and i'm already fighting the second boss
This is the best tip video I’ve seen on the game so far. Thank you so much, this has really helped me.
Cool video, just got this game yesterday and as a longtime SMT fan you actually had tips that were useful.
These tips were amazing! Thank you!
Another tip or rather a suggestion. When the enemy gather magatsuhi it help to simply defend on the next turn. It will mitigate a lot of the critical damage, prevent being afflicted by an ailment AND prevent weakness exploit.
Aramasa is also a very nice skill early on. 8 weak physical strike, each capable of independently crit, for the cost of 10 MP. It can be gotten from Aogami Type 1 essence which is found not too far from the first boss, along the water stream near Tokyo Tower. Of course each hit will hit around 10 damage at around 24 Strength but that's still 80+ damage, not counting crits which will add a few more hits of damage AND giving you an extra turn.
I'm 25hours in, and this was still very helpful. That is so often not the case with tip videos
great tips. This is just what i'm looking for. You rock, Alex!
Appreciate that!
*Get those dampener items from the shop*
If you feeling scared that a demon would use a powerful wind attack after charging up magatsuhi (you know whom I'm referring to), then pop up a wind dampener to fully protect your team and take away the enemy's turn
Sadly, you can only carry a maximum of 3 dampeners but these should be sufficient to use just before the enemy does a powerful elemental attack
Wow! That fox you mentioned at the end kinda takes the fun out of finding those little buggers… but I am a completionist and I can’t wait to find him lol.
I love your tip videos. Thanks! This is going to make my run so much more efficient.
Welcome!
Imagine having almost your entire skill set be Null skills.
This post was made by Trumpeter gang.
great video, thanks for the tips, those are very helpful
These are fantastic tips! Very helpful indeed.
A year late to the party, and this is my first smt game, but something I’d like to add is to use your items. I lost my first round against the the first major boss, but when I decided to try out fire and dark dampeners, it literally turned the fight on it’s head, making it much easier to fight it! As a new player I can tell learning how to best block attacks can really turn the tides as it wastes your enemies’ turns.
Great guide, dude. I'm not even sure I'll pick this up and I watched the whole thing 😅
hey thanks!
Thank you so much! Big help!
So helpful! I'll save so much time looking for those little Mimans hiding around the map @9:02 knowing that they'll later be marked on the map! And I had no idea you could just switch resistances with other party members @0:24 , insta-deaths subverted!
heck yea!
Fantastic tips, thank you
This is amazingly useful. Thanks for making a guide that isnt garbage. I have watched 3-4 similar videos by other content creators and they literally just lay out 10 things that the game tells you un the first few hours. This guide was actually very helpful.
for when you recruit demons, if your stock is full or the demon is higher lv than yours, you can still go through the process to recruit them, when they go to tell you their name they will say either your party is full or your too low lv, when you encounter that demon again with either space in party or you are higher lv, the game will immediately recruit them as you already did that work
I'm beyond happy that this game is getting some well-deserved attention.
Thanks for all these tips ! 😊
Wow, you can stack Endure and Enduring Soul here? Noice!
Thank you. This a really good guide!🙏🏿🙏🏿❤❤🤯🤯
Thanks!
coming back after a year to say this REALLY helped me when i played through this when it was new! sage like advice
Now THIS is a helpful video! Thanks!
Awesome tips! Thanks 🤟
Thanks a lot for these great tips.
So amazing! Thank you very much
Good tips. Appreciate it
Fantastic game and really useful tips. Thank you for help.
And, yes, game is brutal but we love it anyway 😍
hey man, i have playing for like 10 hours and this is by far best tutarial ever!
I'm finally getting around to pickign this up with the bundle at a discount this weekend and as a series vet this video is both hilarious and informative, so even seven months later thank for for this.
Great video, just earned yourself a sub 💪🏾
Awesome!
Getting this game for Christmas and these tips are dope! Haven’t played an SMT game since IV released on DS and I wasn’t hardcore into RPGs yet at the time to finish it…really looking forward to playing through this game
Thanks for the help. SMTV is the best jrpg I've played in a long long time. The enemy design never fails to impress and the world is fun to explore. I like the voice acting too. I'm about ten hours in.
Thanks for these great tips
This was so helpful
Great tips. Thanks.
Super helpful guide, im probably going to make a list on all the core demons i want to obtain through my playthrough
Aka Special fusions, fusion only demons and exclusive story demons
Before watching, pick up the orbs and you can grind demons near them, skimp out on gold costs.
Great video! I’m grinding my way through the last area and am wishing I didn’t use my stat upgrade items earlier in the game. The boss fights here are killing me, and grinding is tough.
Very, very useful. Thanks
1:39 that boom shirt might be the single coolest shirt design I’ve ever seen 😂
These are some solid ass tips, thanks bro
This was really good tips
The big bois at 5:08 reminded me of how one day in Megaten 3 i spent an hour trying to transfer the right skills on him.... That was before you could pick which skills get transfered.
Well this video and the op video would have been help several bosses ago for me. This makes me want to start all over from scratch from what i was doing
Thanks for these tips. This is my first SMT game and I’ve never played any Persona games so I’ve been basically figuring out stuff as I go. I’ve made it to the Lahmu fight and am now stuck-his third phase keeps offing me, but hopefully I can keep plugging away.
Just finished the game and my tip is to make sure not to hoard your essences and items! Items are really strong in this game and they get given to you pretty regularly, if you are in a situation where that MP restoration or Physical null will turn a battle around, USE IT!
Also make sure not to sit on your essences, especially ones for a demon you have in your party or ones you are close to unlocking. It sucks missing out on an essence from leveling up a demon because you already have it!
Also one more thing, if you have a turn in a boss fight with nothing else to do, try throwing out a status item! They will work on everything, including bosses. I made a difficult endgame boss much easier by managing to put him and one of his minions to sleep, which let me buff my party and take out the other minion without any stress and made the fight way easier. You can also shut down a boss's magatsuhi turn if they're unable to act!
I’m late but super helpful. Thanks 🙏
Amazing vids, all of it. But I have a question, How do you get all the resistances as shown in the video?
A 13th tip I found useful; keep note of the vending machines scattered around the Netherworld. Unlike the yellow treasure orbs, these restock over time, similarly to the Magatsuhi spheres. Their only purpose is to provide you with vending trash to sell to Gustave, so if you hit them up regularly, you can build a pretty massive stockpile of loot that will translate into a big cash reward. Given how expensive it can be just to use the Demon Compendium and recruit demons, and how little Macca you tend to get from fights, it's handy to know.

Great tips. I just got my third game over, just after the first boss, and it's .... rough. But I'm enjoying the crunch, I've had a craving for a hardcore monster breeding game since .... oh I dunno, Dragon Warrior Monsters back on the GameBoy as a kid. Seems SMT was the series I needed!
Surprised you didn't mention that, when using Reverse Compendium Fusion, you can actually get the entire list of potential fusion choices, which are listed from the most expensive at the top to the least expensive at the bottom, so it's always worth scrolling through to see if you can find a more cost-effective or skill-useful fusion than simple Reverse Fusion or Dyad Fusion might offer on their own.
Thanks for the tips. Leaving the video early cuz I like to find out the hard way. Makes me feel that I'm capable enough when I win. If I fail, at least I know I'm doing my own thang. But I will use your tips about the resistance
Awesome video, what's the name of the 2 demons you used to carry you from mid game to end game (OP healer and magic damage dealer that you talked about)?
How do you farm for essences? In the early game they’re harder to come by when defeating enemies
I'm new to this series, only having played about 30 hours of SMT IV and just starting SMT V, and this whole time i've been replacing passive skills on my demons hand over fist. I didn't realize they were passive, I thought you had to use them on your turn to get the buff. Wow I feel so dumb now lol. Great tips though. Uhh and super great tip on the passive skills. ;v;
Damn this is actually useful info
Your videos for SMTV are so helpful! In the case of Reverse Demon Compendium, would you say it makes senes to fuse together demons to make a new/unregistered one as soon as you're able to? I'm having a hard time deciding when to do this as I progress through the game.
You don't need to do it immediately, especially if the component demons are the same level or still have skills to learn, unless you need the new demon for the current area or boss you're facing. Most of the time you will want to fuse demons away once they lag behind in levels and stop pulling their weight, either by not keeping up in damage or not being able to stay alive. There's a few demons that are useful for a very long time, though.
I hadn't even thought of the "make sure not all your magic attacks are an attack all attack" omg, def. recommending this vid to other newbies! thanks!
you da real MVP 🙏
I have another tip: I just found out that you can get a total of 26 demons in your party. Most likely during mid to late game, so don't get so fixated on one demon. This gives you the room to explore and improve upon the many demons this game have to offer.
On top of this, demons level very slowly compared to the Nahobino and will eventually lag behind on attack and defense, so it's in your best interest to fuse away your old stuff to improve your party.
1st two tips blew my mind 😂😂 I die like 10 times already.
Awesome tips! But tell me, wich essence gave you all those affinity resistances? O:
Pro Tip:
Step 1: Use my 300 gold coins in the E-shop I didn't know I had (Which expire in a year) to purchase the increase Mitama EXP DLC.
Step 2: Notice an infinite amount of Black Mitama, and kill them.
Step 3: Gain 99 Gospels easy, and use 1 for each Mitama you kill to bring you up to level 99.
Step 4: What even is the game at this point since I'm level 99 before I leave the first map.
3:06 If you also have the Whittled Goat item, you can survive a 3rd time.
0:34 how did you make all those blocks on affinity? Can you make a guide for that? Please
I’m new to jrpgs like this, last one I played was final fantasy 12 on ps2 or 3. Excited but overwhelmed lol
This game is amazing and very addictive but dang is it difficult. I dont play many RPGs so there is a lot to unravel here. But thanks for these great tips! What im finding is that somehow im losing magic types such as fire so I have to go back and get someone who had em just to fuse from their essence but I think thats part of it.
Man this video its pure stonks in demon economics
I know half the comments are saying the what I'm about to say but these were all actual advise. Great video man!
Would you recommend strength or magic builds? And also what other stats are important to boost?
Actually legit tips that aren't obvious. Nice 👌
It's 5:26 am here in Norway, I'm drunk eating some weird polish soup made out of pig intestines (it's delicious), and I find this vid EXTREMELY helpfull. Too much details on my part? Maybe, but still an amazing vid.
Is recruiting a demon a part of the battle phase, as in you have to choose the talk option once battle starts? How does that affect the turns, if so?
I'm going for a Phys build, at level 43 I have like 55 strength. I regret putting points in anything but strength. I could be at 60~ if I did that. I'll just grind out balms to compensate.
I decided to start my first playthrough on hard mode, but only invest in my luck stat. No elemental spells, only instakills and status ailments lmao. Finally got through hydra only to discover all the mobs in the next area will preemptive strike me and instakill my main character lmao
That sounds like an insane run. Have you been able to maintain that?
@@BMVfilms well, at this point I'm investing mostly in vitality and and agilty so bosses and ambushes don't murder me as often, but yeah. It's bern very difficult, but with a little luck (lol) the bosses are still doable
Hi, thanks for your tips, this is my first smt and I'm playing in hard mode. Im finding every small progression quite difficult. Im always lacking money and mana (or magic or whatever is called).....
Dude, I'm an SMT vet and I'm playing in normal rn bcs I know how hard the game can get
Planning to play hard on ng+ tho
@@TruePeaceSeeker thanks for your feedback. Yeah, i usually play on normal on most games, but I wanted the challenge this time. I just finished monster sanctuary which becomes hard in the late game, so I just wanted to keep the challenge up...... But yeah, progression is very hard on hard mode I'm having quite a bit of problems XD
4:03 -- I just fused Alice, so I don't plan on ever dropping this iconic demon. I may save up the items for making her OP.
Although, she's pretty much purely darkness, so her attacks get blocked alot
I can't tell you how many mitama I just spammed attacks on before watching this video and realizing I could use a spyglass on them
I just assumed they wouldn't work at first because spyglasses didn't reveal info on bosses and special enemies in the previous games lol
not sure if this is a special circumstance but my knocked out demons did gain exp after beating Lahmu the second time. Maybe it was for quest completion? i dont remember
tbh smtv was insanely easy for me because as soon as I get amanozako's essence I created a build to resist/null most attacks. In the end I had a nahobino that only resisted two types and nulled or repelled everything else
and checking the comments I'm surprised that other people didn't think about this, but I'm also very familiar with the megami tensei series which gives me an advantage ig
when i first playing my mistakes is to go offensive, focus on magic and strength , all offensive skills . but on newgame+ i focus on endurance, like vitality and resistance. back then i waste pretty much rare essence because im so dumb hahah but well its alright, we strive to be smarter after knowing how careless we are before this. on my newgame+ i be following more tips and tricks instead of playing it randomly, this game not just hack and slash its all about strategy and critical thinking.
