At last, we enter the Adamah Block, the last block of Tartarus! Five more bosses await us here before we're able to progress the storyline even further and conquer the evil in the world and whatnot.

This is the finishing line so I had the time to think which social links I need and which I might as well stop building up. SLs being pretty high was a reason how I managed to get some skills and skill cards that are very important for fusion purposes and what have you, but at this point I can already see what the best Personae would be against the final battles (it could all fail of course!) so I stop working on SLs almost entirely and focus on arcade-grinding my Personas instead.

I still have that Jikokuten with humongous attack and Vorpal Blade/Apt Pupil so he could continue getting strength upgrades until capping attack at 99. I also fused a Taraka specially for Nyx in mind (see previous video), whose speciality is magic, so training in magic is required until Taraka also caps that. Arcade grinding won't boost defence or luck, sadly, but speed is another available stat, apparently assisting with accuracy and evasion. Sadly, even with 99 speed, a speed buff and a speed debuff on the boss, attacks still connect against Taraka fairly often. I suspect levels have something to do with it (because they most certainly do in the attack formula).

We start our conquest by facing three Noble Seekers, who boast the best magic of all four elements, including MT ones, as well as Vorpal Blade, so secondary characters (read - anyone not named MC or Akihiko) set up mirrors to increase my chances of surviving a turn against these three guys.

As for the MC, it's stupid to do anything but 99 atk Vorpal Blades with her - just one VB alone isn't powerful enough, but when we have three targets, crits and One More's are to be expected, and if we get decently lucky the damage adds up to obscene amounts. They don't resist slash, so it's Vorpal Blade all the way. Jikokuten wallops.

Then it's a battle against 3 Carnal Snakes, who also don't resist slash, and who specialise in status and fire magic.

While the MC continues to use Vorpal Blade on each turn she gets, Akihiko inflicts debuffs against the bosses (one by one, Rakunda being top priority) and Aigis should buff the MC up if our own buffs are gone because of Dekaja.

Eventually, these guys fall as they should.

The next video will show the battle against World of Balance, easily the toughest fight in the challenge thus far.
