#I’m focusing on a Mag/Luck Ailment build but I see a Phys/Ailment as viable too with skills like Blight and Dark Sword

Replaying SMT V because I couldn’t get the idea of an Ailment build being viable (if not ideal) out of my head and I was able to beat the funny lvl 99 Abscess first try???

Note: This is on Normal difficulty but STILL

#technically this NG+ #But because I was changing my build I couldn’t reincarnate #meaning no high level essences nor my stocks of balms and such #I’m focusing on a Mag/Luck Ailment build but I see a Phys/Ailment as viable too with skills like Blight and Dark Sword #Profaned Land is the GOAT of this build btw #Even aside from being Dark ie Insta-Death with high enough Luck #the Poison Proc + Poison Adept + A Phys Demon with Venom Chaser means enemies get WASHED a lot of the time #early game was ROUGH but now I feel surprisingly comfortable #like I was SO shocked with how smooth the lvl 99 Abscess went like #When I did a straight up Magic build last time I had to get up to 70+ to do it #Even with Phys/Almighty I needed to be that high AND have Murakumo #this build is just kinda juice I guess #smt V #Shin Megami Tensei V #nahobino #ailment build #Makajama is so clutch with high luck it almost always hits #and that’s the motto of this build #it just has to hit once and we’re in #this abscess btw sewed the seeds of Ailment build being viable with the Poisma from the slime doing up to like 200-300 damage with lvl diff #this is also all in an effort to make Chaotic Will a real danger if I can beat Demifiend that is #which the strat is to seal him as much as possible and my Makajama has been hittin a lot sooooo #shin megami tensei
