With 270 demons to choose between, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance doesn't always make it easy to pick your perfectဣ party. That's what makes the game so fun, mind you - fine-tuning your party composition is as engaging as it is rewardiꦿng.

But at each point in SMT 5: Vengeance's pretty-tough story, there are demons who number among the most valuable allies to consider bringing with you intoℱ the Netherworld. In the early hours, when your Demon Compendium is still looking a little thin, finding the best partners (and leveli🐠ng them up to their full potential) can mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Mermaid

Mermaid might be our favorite early-game demon. We haven't really organized this list in ranked order, but still. She's weak to both fire and lightning, so plan accordingly, but for solid elemental damage very early in𓃲to SMT 5, look no fu🃏rther.

Stormcaller Song, her unique skill, strikes random foes three to six times with ice damage. Mermaid's high ice affinity and decent magic stat combine to ensure gobs of damage with it. That magic stat means Mermaid's a prime candidate for other moves, like Wind Breath and Hama.

Pandemonic Feast synergizes well with your default, critical-ensuring Omagataki skill, boosting accuracy and maximizing the possible hit count. That second part is key; have the Nahobino use Aramasa with Take-Minakata in tow and you might strike 𓄧even more times.

Take-Minakata

It's good to have at least one demon in your stock who's designed to bring the big guns for physical damage, and Take-Minakata is primed to do just that. One of the easiest early ways to get him is through fusing Mermaid and Tsuchigumo.

There's not much else to say about Take-Minakata; he's truly just here to pummel your enemy into submission. Shockbound works great for him if you want some lightning-based might, though - but mainly stick with strength-based hits, and rev those hits to higher damage thresholds in hard fights via Charge.

Angel

Mandrake, Pixie, Agathion, Slime, and many more Minato-dwelling monsters are potential ingredients to fuse Angel, a light-elemental demon with robust support skills.

Blessed Melody boosts party-wide light-elemental damage. Good stuff if you're packing more allies with Hama, but if nothing else, this will benefit Angel himself! Humble Blessing, Patra, and Recarm are all terrific early-game healing skills.

You'll bump into status ailments almost from the jump, so Patra is especially handy to have around.

Jack-o'-Lantern

You can get Jack-o-Lantern in plenty of ways, but among the earliest methods involves fusing Slime with Kodama. As such, you shouldn't have to wait long before this highly-talented fire-type attacker is yours.

Maragi deals weak fire damage to all foes, and Jack-o'-Lantern's high fire affinity (which you can boost all the higher with items) means it'll hardly feel especially weak in the early game.

Better yet, Jack Agilao, its unique skill, deals medium fire damage to one foe while lowering the target's attack by one rank. This will curb the enthusiasm of anythin🐟g that isn't resistant to the element, while bringing real pain to anyone who's also weak to it.

Leanan Sidhe

Although you're given a choice between Apsaras and Leanan Sidhe during "The Water Nymph" sub-quest in early Minato, you can fuse whichever demon you didn't choose relatively easily. That said, we do prefer Leanan Sidhe for the choice.

Mamudo is a multi-target dark-type spell that is quite a boon against the fair number of demons weak to dark later on in the region, and Marin Karin's Charm ailment effect can help to lower the number of times a p🐼owerful foe's at𝐆tacks are successful.

High Pixie

High Pixie will take a bit more legwork to recruit to your side, so you'll want to rely upon a demon like Pixie or Neko Shogun for healing until you can get her. Thankfully, this is one of the easiest special fusions in the game, as it requires only Pixie and Angel.

Once you've got High Pixie, she'll serve as a stellar healing-oriented party member for the remainder of the Minato region and early into Shinagawa as well. Recarm is a revival spell, and while the restorative Dia is fine, see if you can get Media on High Pixie for party-wide HP restoration.

High Pixie's Elec Gestalt unique skill boosts her electric-type damage potential based on the cꦐombined potentials of the rest of the active party. This may or may not be a big deal for you, but it's surely enough reason to keep electric magic on her.
