They have elemental weaknesses (except the Principality angel cause I fused his dark weakness out with a Null Dark) but it's rare that I need more than my 3 elemental block items to finish an enemy.

I have other 'mon in stock but I almost never need to summon them and they aren't very strong.ДЄnd now I've got a skill that lets me re-summon a demon that's been killed at full HP so it's usually just as well to re-summon them than to summon another demon. I've dumped so many incense and sutras and essences into these three (they're all lvl 80 now) that it's hard to just swap them out. Rakshasa (was an Azumi I recruited in the first area and later upgraded).Principality (was a normal Angel I fused with an elemental demon twice to upgrade).High Pixie (was a normal Pixie and my first recruited demon and my first special fusion).

I've 'evolved' them through fusion once or twice though. I've been pretty much rocking the same 3 demons the entire game. Granted, I did notice that a number of the race skills were especially powerful, but because of the revolving door nature of the party, I could never really count on those as part of my strategy. But once you start getting a hold of the good old buffs and de-buffs, even the spongiest boss went down in four or five (admittedly) high tension turns, where a well landed weakness or critical on my side of the field could throw the entire battle into chaos.ДЄs for the Magatsuhi, I confess I only used it a handful of times at the start of the game, before ultimately stopping when I got the miracle that gave my party a minor heal per turn, which honestly made a far greater difference in battle longevity when those handful of MP per turn added up to one more Media or Dia spell. Fri 3rd Dec you feel the bosses were spongey? I actually didn't feel that way after the first couple bosses, where it felt like my damage output was inherently lower due to restricted skills.I'd like to give it a try on Hard to see how it plays. This was my experience from playing on Normal, mind you. While it does feel that 5 made the game 'easier', I found it to have a fair amount of challenge throughout, only dropping off towards the end of the game where you could start overpowering enemies and bosses alike by completing quests and gaining enough bonus EXP to level up to the point that you could curb stomp the fights. In those cases, you'd end up resorting to the same dull tactics: buffs and critical attacks in the hopes of getting more of those sweet icons. The fact that about 98% of the compendium now has an actual weakness makes the game a fair bit more balanced versus the older games, where typically about half way through the game you'd start running into bosses especially that had no weaknesses. Having played 3 and 4, among other spin-offs with Press Turn (Digital Devil Saga and Devil Survivor games), I found 5's minor tweaks to the system to be far more beneficial than detrimental. Fri 3rd Dec actually on the other side of the fence with this one.However SMT 5 allows you to customize your character in so many ways and with absolutely no restrictions that it even breaks the whole system as you can be immunite to basically everything in a second if you want. Of course, only if you had the correct spell or ability, which you often had not. The press turn battle system in SMT games was always problematic because it was just enough to find a weakness and spam the correct spell. You just could not change your attributes as easily, or actually not at all. And fight him again, spam the most useful spell and that is it. Then you use an essence to make you resistant to his attack and to make him vulnerable to your attacks. You are fighting a boss for the first time, you find his weakness, his attacks and you probably die in process.

The essence system literally breaks the game as if it makes attributes frankly pointless. I swear I battled so many battles in a row during which enemies did not even attack me due to the Megatsuhi system. There are tons of Megatsuhi around the world, so it is very easy to gather it and fight enemies and bosses with immediate Critical hits from the beginning. I am just not sure about the whole Megatsuhi thing and mainly the essence.

Fri 3rd Dec the exploration is great in SMT 5, the level design of the world is really interesting, almost on par with Xenoblade Chronicles 2's.
