      Been wondering a lot what would the move do.
      My two ideas are that it either
      Light/médium almighty damage 7 times (One per deadly sin that composes the shell)
      Or
      High almighty damage 1 time, but it ignores the enemy defense (all that "cappsble to pierce a god" stuff in its description)

Of course, it's still advisable to unlock all of their rank 1s to get their benefits, and to max out your party members to evolve their personas (and Ryuji to get to run down enemies), as well as max out Chihaya if you want celestial readings.
      But if you've already fused everything and/or are stupidly OP already, then you can probably get away with just unlocking rank 1 of a few specific confidants and ignore the rest.

      Nah, the max damage an item can do is 150 itself. No way to do enough damage per turn before they all-out-attack you

      @@bainz If you could manage to deal damage every turn with every party member, you dish out 3000 damage before 5 whole turns are used up. Plus, having a repel-all persona would definitely help you out in battle.
      I'm sure there are also more possibilities out there that could be fiddled with this but then again I could be thinking a little ambitiously

      thats way more than 2 turns, think "take turns" and you're already wrong.
      it's alternating, and especially when it's possible for enemies to have attacks/turns in between your party members depending on agility... you just get more and more wrong.
      just bcs its your TEAMs turn, doesn't make it 2 turns at all.

    Why does everyone call powerful things "broken?" That's not what the word broken means.

    • @zaqareemalcolm
      @zaqareemalcolm Рік тому

      it implies it's not working as intended (whether that's actually the case is another thing entirely), because "broken" stuff in video games are usually so powerful they can circumvent how the rest of the game is designed
