Well, as long as he doesn't immediately snipe you with insta-kills or simply because you're on low HP from the curse damage. But assuming you survive that initial turn then yeah, you save yourself a Smoke Ball :P
@@JimReaperSaysUnsubscribe well, not for you because youre on low level XD but if you come here before fighting flyboi, daisoujou is definitely less scary.
@@JimReaperSaysUnsubscribe I've seen it happen multiple times, but I haven't really seen much to indicate why. Could be interesting to look into if I have a couple hours to kill today
@@dracula103192 "and you have to have already beaten them in main story fights" Although this is true in general (usually you have to beat a fiend in order to unlock the kalpa that contains them) there is one exception. Defeating Pale Rider is not a requirement to unlocking the 3rd kalpa, but he appears there anyway. Little tidbit for ya.
I can't believe that Zombero went out of his way to make a FKE exclusive to the Cursed Corridor, an area already designed specifically to give you a Game Over. Speaking of which, I still don't understand how it's possible to get the 250,000 macca in Hardtype without a properly fuctioning Estoma. Unless you go out of your way to farm Smoke Balls, chances are you won't have enough to make it to the end assuming you never get ambushed.
Not really a quick question at all. SMT IV is really screwed up because of how bad the stat distributions are and how easy it is to pass skills down, so all that really matters are resistances and innate skills. Dantalian has great elemental resistances and gets both Tetrakarn and Makarakarn...by level 34. Both of which are skills that destroy the game. Thoth has good elemental resistances but really I’m just mentioning him because he gets Doping at level 33, which is also really ridiculous. Ouroboros has great resistances all around and learns Null Nerve and Null Mind. Alice is like Ouroboros but better in most respects. Innately nulls all ailments, great resistances, and gets Debilitate at level 51. Rangda repels physical and gun and also has Debilitate and Endure. All of those might not work well for some battles since most of them have low HP, but they’ll never be bad even if you don’t pass down other skills to them and they’ll be great choices for a lot of battles. In Apocalypse, they did a much better job with balancing stat distribution, resistances, and not providing broken skills early. With the addition of affinities, it’s a lot harder to pick demons that are objectively superior since a lot of demons have niche roles that they perform better than others in a particular level range. Unlike other games, nothing’s really going to carry you through the game. The ones that stand out most to me are Alice again and Ukano Mitama. Alice still nulls all ailments and has amazing offensive capabilities with Dye for Me!, +5 dark affinity, High Dark Pleroma, and good stats. Ukano Mitama is amazing for a support demon with ridiculous HP and MP, Mediarama with High Healing Pleroma and +3 healing, and Healing Knowhow. At the endgame there are demons that obviously fill their role much better than other demons like Shiva, Inanna, and Krishna when excluding fiends and DLC but that’s at the end of the game anyway.
was shiki changed to FKE only? because in vanilla he appears as a normal enemy in the second kalpa. i remember because he killed me twice with mahamaon (i still love him though)
Most of the endgame stuff that's good in vanilla is still good in hardtype (Surt, Beelzebub, Metatron etc) ...Thor is now one of the best demons in the game for sure. Niflheim makes Skadi top tier. Black Rider is meant to be god-like - makes a great Prayerbot with his natural ailment immunity and Soul Divide destroys random encounters with their beefy HP pools. And of course anything that regularly appeared in my run is still great - get yourself an Anti-Force Choronzon early on, and upgrade to an Anti-everything Arahabaki later on ;) Wu Kong is still top tier too.
Someone's already done one of TTYD, at least. However, they did exploit glitches to skip some fights that are otherwise mandatory and consequently end up at a lower level.
I can't be the only one who kinda wished Daisoujou and Hell Biker teamed up.
preach and hell burner at the same time, don't get me started
Rad skeles team up I’ll take it
@@TrueCobalion you mean "startled", amirite?
@@karotconcarne3325 amirita, amirite?
Episode 3? What next, Episode 4?
Daisoujou shows up in cursed hallway. A free encounter, basically. Compared to the actual level like 65 encounters in there

Can confirm, the Sarasvati Dragon Eye loop can still happen on the most recent version of Hardtype.
Any ideas what triggers it?
@@JimReaperSaysUnsubscribe I've seen it happen multiple times, but I haven't really seen much to indicate why. Could be interesting to look into if I have a couple hours to kill today
If you have a demon weak to force, sarasvati loops into dragon eye
i thought it was intentional tbh
So you can run into fiends in the kalpas in this mod? Well shit.
only at full Kagestuchi and you have to have already beaten them in main story fights

@@JimReaperSaysUnsubscribe well shit. I figured it was a mere they wouldnt show up in kalpas til their defeat in the other areas first.
when will Atlus make Super Paper Nocturne
using shiisaa for anything other than dog breath is sacrilege

Hey bucketgetter, Quick question: Who are the best demons in smt iv and apocalypse respectively?

@@Bucketgetter endgame DLC cleopatra
@@Bucketgetter dye for me lmao
I was totally hoping Parivarti would do the dragon eye spam until they run out of MP
Will dynamic sheep appear next episode
was shiki changed to FKE only? because in vanilla he appears as a normal enemy in the second kalpa. i remember because he killed me twice with mahamaon (i still love him though)
I think so. Same with hresvelgr. Although they also show up as regular enemies later on in the game
I'm pretty sure Shiki still appears normally later o (I swear I remember owning them with Prominence but not one-hitting each one)
@@steam-powereddolphin5449 yes they appear in asakusa after the invasion and in mifunashiro
Could I fight the reasons bosses in kalpa?
Not as FKEs, but in the graveyards as with vanilla yes.
I question the some farts part of the description.
But great job regardless lol
If you have a better explanation for what Shadow and other Foul demons are I'd like to hear it
Until then they are fart clouds. Canon.
So Jim, Who are the best demons in hardtype?

Low level Paper Mario playthrough?
Someone's already done one of TTYD, at least. However, they did exploit glitches to skip some fights that are otherwise mandatory and consequently end up at a lower level.
Stryder7x did it already at permanent level 1
