    Fusion accident rate starts at 1/128 under normal circumstances, during full moon it's always 1/16, and at new moon it's normally 1/128, but if one of the demons is dead it jumps to 1/16 and if both are dead you get the highest rate of 1/8.

    I just played SMT V last month in preparation for Vengeance and not a single time in 70+ hours I saw the light of a fusion accident, to the point where (when it happened in Vengeance) I legit thought this was something that was missing in the original.

  • @Raindrop_2401
    @Raindrop_2401 5 месяцев назад +48

    Most other SMT low level runs: Make use of the fusion systems to create powerful low level demons and use insane stratagies to take down whatever challenge is thrown your way.
    Low level runs in SMTV: Use fusion accidents to get the highest level demons possible because the game designers thought damage scaling with level was a good idea.

    20:29 nuts considering it's expected that you fight Nuwa at around level 20-22 in a normal run. That's the other side of the level curve in SMTV, I think. Yeah, level scaling has a big impact on damage, but the game rubber bands your xp so that it's very hard to be over- or under leveled for a particular area.

  • @dizzygames8469
    @dizzygames8469 4 месяца назад +2

    congrats man! i did a no miracles hard run of this game (also on the law route) and that was already a nightmare even with doing all the sidequests and keeping my level on par. i can't imagine being this underleveled with how brutal the level scaling is in this game. futsunushi, girimekhala, and alilat were absolutely the mvps in the endgame, along with huang long who was legal in my ruleset. the only difference was that i banned accursed poison, but it was a lot more manageable since everything did much less damage due to being equal level.
    on tsukuyomi after wiping a few times i came up with a strat, when he used true replication i would have MC use a fire shard and used a ruler to measure the HP bars on my screen to see which one was the longest, since the replicas take a little more damage. then i just unloaded on the real one and i was right every single time, it was a great turn to deal lots of damage.
    really great job, would be interested to see what this run looks like in vengeance

  • @CrucibleOfHate
    @CrucibleOfHate Месяц назад +2

    Your early fusion accident successes followed by that dry streak are 100% just rng. Nothing happened I can't say that fusion accidents always have a 1/128 chance of occuring regardless of full moon status, because I play Vengeance on the PC and that is where that's true and I've had fusion accidents without a full or new moon, but what I can say is that fusing with a dead demon on a new moon increases your chances to the same as on a full moon, and fusing with two dead demons (on a new moon) raises it to a very reliably testable 1/8 chance. This would have been totally useless to you even if you had learned it, though. No way to kill demons if you can't enter fights.

    The glitch you used to get to the Temple of Eternity early can also be used to access all of Shinagawa before Loup'garou spawns.
    This also means you can completely skip Loup'garou and Fionn since the story flag actually DOES get updated once you enter the fairy village. (But i imagine you wouldnt want to do that)
