Hey all! I know people have been asking about whether or no my build guides for the original version of SMT 5 still work, as well as if I'll be making new ones. As for whether the old builds work, the builds themselves still work but with a few caveats: (1) while I've recreated most of them, I did so mainly using essence fusion -- as stated in this video, during my first playthrough I mainly just made my demons using what I had and then filled in their skills with essence fusion. Because of this, I haven't been able to confirm if the fusion recipes used in my old videos still work; there is a chance they don't due to all of the new demons that have been added. (2) if you are wanting to use any of my old builds on Godborn mode, changes will almost certainly need to be made; namely, fitting in Enduring Soul and Energy Drain in builds that don't already have those -- essentially cutting back on offensive power for more defense and sustain. This brings me to new builds. I will be making new builds for SMT 5: Vengeance, the first of which was alluded to near the end of this video. Expect these new builds to be designed for Godborn mode, or to at least have a suggested skill set for Godborn mode. Anyways, if you have any questions about SMT 5: Vengeance, feel free to come hit me up over on Twitch and I'll be happy to answer. Link: twitch.tv/rozalingaming -- Roz

Cironnup as been a surprise staple in my party. Cautious Cheer+Boon Boost is the main draw but, I also found a lot of value in his innate skill and his skill potentials. The idea is to make him a buff bot that acts later rather than sooner because when he's done buffing, he can do some decent damage with fire skills.

Great video as always Rozalin! Will keep some of these builds in mind. Quick question, but are you planning on covering Trails Through Daybreak? Just curious, because I heard it's easier than previous entries in the series.

@RozalinGaming 2 ай бұрын

At the very least I'm preparing a video going over everything there is to know about Daybreak (I have 300+ combined hours between Daybreak 1 and 2). Sadly, it is easy, insultingly so actually -- the only difference between Very Easy and Nightmare is enemy speed and HP values and nothing else. Daybreak also has a lot of other issues and at least among the JP community and those of us who actually speak Japanese, it's tied for the worst game in the series alongside Daybreak 2 -- those two games almost killed the entire franchise due to how poorly they've done in Japan and are largely why Falcom are speed running to the end now. Another issue with Daybreak is how unfriendly it is to newcomers, breaking the tradition of first-games-in-an-arc being relatively contained stories. In Daybreak's case, it relies pretty heavily on past info, especially Reverie.

No sommersault on artemis? I feel like that skill makes her an excellent support in a full damage Team. I love initiating omegatoki critical with her sommersault to guarantee the Defence Down and the additional press turn it generates. For a limited time you also get "Hayataro" as a guest character which you can use alongside your own hayataro making for some pretty funny omagatoki turns

@RozalinGaming 2 ай бұрын

Throughout both the original and this I found Sommersault to not be worth it. It's good, sure, but pricey to use early and that extra skill slot can be but to better use elsewhere. Later on it's a lot better when her MP pool is higher, but by that time you have better options for debuffs on other units, which again lets you replace it with more useful skills.

@@RozalinGaming Yeah I do agree that it gets outclassed by other debuffing skills at some point. It specifically helped me to beat Sakuya (when I was around level 42) as it was difficult to debuff her while doing enough damage so she doesn't keep healing herself back to full

Luckily, you unlock Hayataro in CoV WAY earlier than in CoC/Original, making him useful in the mid-game. When I first played the original in 2022, when I locked onto Chaos and got awarded with him at level 44-ish... with a stock full of Lv. 80s-90s, it was... a very interesting decision, considering the other 2 demons you unlock on the other routes. He did absolutely nothing other than being an emergency meat shield.
