No lie, you need around 300 vitality at level 99 to not die from Masakado's Recalcitrant Execution and about 400+ to survive a full power Megido Ark. Demi-Fiend really has fallen off in Vengeance for him to be considered "easy".
I remember beating Satan on hard mode before there was a guide. Shit was rouuuugh. I reworked my entire team three different times and found out taunt different strats just do not work. Demeter, Cu Chullain, and Demi-Fiend my love. Good job beating him! Also, the godborne level 99 route is doable, although it's admittedly rather tedious. If you intend to go that route, good luck! You got this
I actually beat true masa without overleveling by technically following the rules of this challenge using a fairly different strat from this (I didn't want to do drain strats) so my party was just konohana, artemis and demi. Amazing video as always btw
@@tagless3303 TBH I stopped using Artemis after awhile because her vitality stat SUCKS. But I can definitely see the appeal through Somersault and Astral Saintstrike
Also, maybe it's just the footage you showed, but guarding on nahobino is super good against masakado and i feel like you didn't use it enough. Mirage + guard + Chaotic will makes him super consistant, and since he can only use his aoe once per turn, endure is basically a second enduring soul in this fight
@@kaiserkreuz2110 Ziro actually suggested to abuse Diarama for the whole fight but I felt I could get away with starting to use it once he got to Recalcitrant
@@jaffinator2166 That's the thing: you don't want him to use Recal since it does more damage than Freikugel and to everyone. He only uses it once per turn, but that's still super annoying to deal with even if you have Demeter to heal.
Minor correction on Doubler. It's 3.3x the difference. So tarukaja +2 goes from 1.4x to 1 + 0.4 x 3.3, or 2.32x. In effect this makes it about a 66% damage boost and a 38% accuracy boost. Its effect on defense is also bugged, btw. It treats +1/+2 defense as -1/-2 defense and vice versa while active.
30:20. That's not how his AI works. It replaces moves you null with Freikugel for a number of turns equal to 1 + hia number of Omagatoki turns. So if you null wind dracostrike after 4 omagatoki turns from masa, he replaces it with Freikugel for 5 turns. Recalcitrant also just replaces each turns 1st Freikugel once introduced.
I’m honestly amazed you beat true Masakado in these rules considering that he’s hard enough that my only clear of him was using the stratagize squad. That 4x damage multiplier he gets makes Recalicant slash go nuts. My only option was to end the fight before he got to use it xd. I’m pretty sure the intended method was to hit him every turn with all 7 damage types each for more than his 2k healing amount to prevent him from attacking but that was just not reasonable most of the time xd. He was way harder than anything else the other super bosses had nothing on this warlord xd.
16:22 SH*T!!! Also, like you, I try to beat the Canon of Vengeance as a Minimalist, but I've make some differences compared to you. For example, since I've recruit Yukiko Person- I mean Konohana Sakuya early on, I've decided to recruit Anansi instead of Onyonkopon. And if I did manage to recruit Mephisto early, I think I didn't need to recruit Kudlak but Kresnik. I dunno about his abilities and affinities, but I think I'll choose him.
@@renamamiya2279 All and all, I do 100% prefer Anansi to Onyankopon however for what I needed to achieve, I felt Onyankopon would be better. I also acknowledge that Kresnik would have made the Squadistu less of a pain but, simultaneously, a lot of things in the next dungeon are weak to dark and Kudlak knew Mamudoon
@@Arluq-e6l shockingly, it was not. You can still 100% do it. I do personally think though they made DF smarter because I found he’ll consistently target someone who resists Phys of a newly summoned null demon. But when boxed into a corner, he will revert to his old habits
Maybe Figment Slash would have been better to generate more press turns against Masakado? That's the strategy I used to beat him without Luminescent Mirage as I felt that move is so cheap lol. Recently I accomplished the same thing with Satan which I am quite proud of haha (have a video on my channel for the same). Nice video regardless! Also maybe Satan would have been more consistent if you did Masakado first? He is pretty useful against that fight as well but I can understand not wanting to do a whole new cycle just to get Masakado.
@@DebeshMishra03 1. The big issue of Figment Slash is its accuracy. While the penalty can be offset by both Eye skills, that’s two skill slots taken that could be used for something like a Pleroma or Crit Aura. 2. While Masakado ABSOLUTELY makes Satan easier, doing that would require me to run through the entire Canon of Vengeance again just to fight him. And possibly beat the Demi-Fiend again too since Chaotic Will helps just as much with him as with True Masakado
@@jaffinator2166 Yeah but I didn't think crit aura is needed for Masakado in particular. I was using the usual Murakumo build originally and found it really lacking lol. But yeah you managed to finish it which is good enough haha.
Satan isn't an actual being, but a title. Angels, demons, or even humans in some cases can be considered Satan. It just means adversary, and the role is essentially to test others, usually in some sort of disargeeement or challenge to God.
Hi everyone, hope you enjoyed the video. As always, while I welcome disagreement, please keep all criticism constructive and respectful.

Very nice! Thanks for the shoutout! To be honest, True Masakado is doable if you make him heal a bit, so you avoid his Recal. Otherwise, solid plan.
