@@villanknight It's worth noting though that Jim also did not use AG or STR noises either. Sure, Buff's fight here is far faster, but Buff also used the aforementioned 2 noises, in addition to what Jim used in his run (HP, Magic, and Vital noises). I'd say that while Buff's fight here is faster, Jim's fight was really only slower because his was more restrictive.
I can tell the Demi-Fiend is powerful not because of his massive pool of HP, not because of his demons, and not because the normal encounter theme from Nocturne plays in the background. It's because he somehow has four press turns while he only has three party members at maximum. Also, Merry Christmas!
@@musicwalls Right, from I think Izanagi. But, then again, it's funny how he has Gaea Rage and has the Masakados Magatama equipped (he cannot be harmed with anything but Almighty skills when you fight him) but has skills like Javelin Rain and Heat Wave. Maybe he's going soft on you somewhat.
Hey!! Glad to see you did it! Congrats! I just got parts 1 and 2 for Christmas. I played dds 1 a long time ago and I'm blind to dds2. This video makes me very excited to play this game now that I'm more experienced with smt. Merry Christmas all
Null Critical and Null Sleep are two Null skills that have really misleading names. Null Critical doesn't prevent crits altogether, it just reduces the odds of the enemy critting you, and Null Sleep doesn't prevent sleep, it just makes you dodge any and all attacks while you are asleep.
Well Cielo has to be level 30 cuz that's his starting level, I think the rest were 20. But also I kinda never want to think about this fight again so the hell if I'm gonna check ;)
So he may have max stats but level is used in calculation of many and most attacks. Think of it as a slight boost to damage and defence that adds up over time. His level stat is low even if his others are high
It make a huge difference cause LV itself is taken into every formula in DDS, Damage, Evasion, Accuracy...etc... According to Jim Reaper's description in his own Demi-Fiend Low Level fight : Level affects just about everything in DDS, including your damage output (both phys & mag), physical defence, accuracy and evasion. With these levels and stats... -The team take more damage from physical skills (about 30% extra compared to L99) -Cielo's spells deal less damage (about 1/3 less compared to L99), which means it drags on forever and I have to live through at least 4 Gaea Rages -You pretty much need Debilitate for spells to connect consistently -Null Sleep aside, none of my team ever avoid any attacks, even with Debilitate in play -Everyone runs out of MP twice as often -Ragnarok is unusable because its damage output is so low without Strength farming, and the HP cost and constant missing would make it too risky anyway. -Since I'm not allowed to use Heat, that's one less emergency Close Call. -Presumably ailments work more often, although this is a bonus when it comes to survivng Gaea Rage (in theory...)
Levels also increase damage, defense, etc even with max base stats. If you played SMT 3 and are level 255, you see the difference between a 99 and 255 even if you are maxed 40 stats. Same for this, you can see a difference between 20 and 99.

I hate myself.
This is worthy of being dubbed a king, Buffie. But please take care of yourself. Also, happy Holidays!
We've noticed.
We know
Congratulations man.
No need to hate yourself. You fought the most hardest challenge that no one will ever beat.
Woah, did I miss a stream or something? Thought you gave up on this. Congrats.
Heya Jim merry Christmas
How does this compare to your fight?
I Guess buffies team was all lv 20 but Jim used cielo whose starting level is 30

Fair nuff
51:00 i was screaming the whole time.
I swear one-eye Willy the elephant mocks us with his Mamudoon spam.
"One-eye willy the elephant" im dying
So... max str, vit, mag, agl, hp and mp. All at level 20. DDS is intresting

Demifiend can get an extra Press Turn in NG+ Nocturne. So this is canonically Demifiend on at least his 2nd playthrough.

I wish he had freikugel equipped
He can be hurt by earth skills and guns also.
50:57 Serph, are you for f-cking real? Good thing close call exists.
Holy shit, this must have been hell. Kudos man.
Poggers
Also merry Christmas

so basically Sharp Student? All right.
A strange christmas gift, but ok.
@jimreaper You just got owned by T E N levels
Then again, maxed stats

This caught me by suprize when i played this game, and nearly had a heart attack when i heard the song
Gale getting instakilled twice 😭
I do not comprehend
I always wondered why does Megidolaon do so little damage here compared to other smt entries
Oh my god, King of SMT
so, when you will upload SJR beelzebub impossible difficulity ? you completely gave up on that ?
I probably will emulate digital devil saga because i really wanna play it
any reason you went with gale over cielo?
The madlad, he did it.
What is the difference if you are low lvl or high lvl if your stats are maxed out ?????
Lv has a massive impact in DDS
It make a huge difference cause LV itself is taken into every formula in DDS, Damage, Evasion, Accuracy...etc...
According to Jim Reaper's description in his own Demi-Fiend Low Level fight :
Level affects just about everything in DDS, including your damage output (both phys & mag), physical defence, accuracy and evasion. With these levels and stats...
-The team take more damage from physical skills (about 30% extra compared to L99)
-Cielo's spells deal less damage (about 1/3 less compared to L99), which means it drags on forever and I have to live through at least 4 Gaea Rages
-You pretty much need Debilitate for spells to connect consistently
-Null Sleep aside, none of my team ever avoid any attacks, even with Debilitate in play
-Everyone runs out of MP twice as often
-Ragnarok is unusable because its damage output is so low without Strength farming, and the HP cost and constant missing would make it too risky anyway.
-Since I'm not allowed to use Heat, that's one less emergency Close Call.
-Presumably ailments work more often, although this is a bonus when it comes to survivng Gaea Rage (in theory...)
Levels also increase damage, defense, etc even with max base stats.
If you played SMT 3 and are level 255, you see the difference between a 99 and 255 even if you are maxed 40 stats.
Same for this, you can see a difference between 20 and 99.
It also affects accuracy heavily. This vid has so many misses due to being low level
Dang Buff i wanna know the good stuff your on about doing this challenge.
What a great christmas present
"Low Level" ...
Cielo has 39 lv... I bet he did every setup for rest of the team(or maybe with Heat)
Hoo boy... 🤣
holy shit he did it
Shit, here we go again
pure hell
Buff master why do you hate your self
Demi-who?
Really nice 👌 😍💋 💝💖❤️
