Part 40: Beelzebub goes down.

Update 40:

Okay, the greatest part of the grind is over with. Regular updating can go on as usual.



Bolt God is one of the highest level Elemental mantras. Maziodyne is the strongest regular multi enemy Electrical Spell, and Elec Resist is something that Gale could use, as it nulls his weakness to Electricity.



Heaet gets a developement in another direction, Makajamon is a Mute spell, one that targets all enemies.
Could be useful, I guess.
Calm Deat is instant death for any enemy that is sleeping. There are some enemies that just looooove to use it. Annoying.
Makakaja buffs magic. Pretty nice. Especially when coupled with Mind Charge. Oh yes.



Argilla also gets Bolt God.

Gale gets the fire equivalent of Bolt God.





Cielo gets something that the rest already have. A VERY useful mantra if only for two of its 3 skills.
Debilitate is a spell, I've already made heavy use of it. It lowers every stat the enemy has. All around debuff. Very useful.
Null Expel would have been useful, but not in this one. In this one it is superfluous, since Expel was very, very nerfed.
Null Death on the other hand...
Now that is a must get.




This is a rather broken combination of skills
Why?




BECAUSE OF THIS GODDAMN SIGN OF THE ARMAGGEDON.



The price is high, but it is well worth it.
Yes, it is 99 MP for every single one.



But it is oh so very awesome.




See?


Black Sun is caused by a combination of Ragnarok, what may be the ultimate Physical skill, Megidolaon, which is, well, Megidolaon, and Salvation, the ultimate healing spell.

It requires a shitload of grinding, but it is worth it.
Better if all the members have Auto Soma, but one can make do with Mana Walk.





Levelups. And such. No surprises.
Argilla's magic IS really obscene.



This is kind of a joke. How could one get to this point without the Blue Key?




Begone, foul wall.



Goddamn traps.




GODDAMN TRAPS.



A joke by this point, this trap is.





See?



This is what Nekomatas evolve into. I think.
They clearly want you to look at their crotch.

And then, there is Uzume.

Wikilink
She is clearly less interested than Senri on you watching her crotch.



Aaaand Kikuri-Hime.

Another SMT wikilink, since the popanime one is down.

Kikuri-Hime's design has changed quite a bit.



This dungeon can be quite annoying to navigate.




But the treasures ain't that bad.
On the other hand, it would have been better if the Noise was of another kind. Arahabakis drop these.



Greeeh.


Oh boy! Time to switch gear around!





Ayup.
Serph is pretty much the only one worth having with a good bullet type, anyway.



Another Titania Hallway.




ARGH NO NO MORE WATER PLACES.




This one is not bad at all, though.



Sati, again.




But Parvati is new!

"Makajamon
Calm Death
Makakaja"


Again, no surprises there. His AG is almost as obscene as Argilla's Magic.



Oh boy! A bunch of blue walls! I wonder what's behind them?




Why, a RED wall!




Arahabakis make Serph's vitality obscene. REALLY obscene.
Yeah, I give the Noises to Serph. The Luck is lagging behind, though, that has to be fixed.



Gale gets good stats.



And so does Argilla.




THESE.
HATE THESE. HATE THEM.

Damn you, Dormina and Calm Death user. DAMN YOU.
Eat Black Sun.



Almost there.




LET'S GET IT OVER WITH.


This is it. The thing that required that much grind. (Gamevee)
It is worth it. (Viddler)
It is over for it now. (Youtube)





Cocky, isn't he?

Well, he has every right to be, he is the second most difficult enemy in the game.



But even the Wicked King is subject to the BLACK SUN.



Oh yes.

















And that's not all!
There are more rewards.
Among them, the ability to buy the High Priestess Mantra, the one that has DEATH FLIES.





And Isis likes to spawn there.



I wonder, where does this go to?




... what?






Tyrant Skull, the thing that unlocks the mantra.



Murder Rock. The rock used by Cain to kill Abel.
Yes.
That rock.



No, it is neither what the Demifiend consumes, nor what Phoenix Wright uses to detect falsehood.




The Magatama is a goddamn awesome BULLET.







And then, unlocking this.








And that's all that is in the Maribel's sewer system.
NEXT: Visiting the Citadel.
