Shin Megami Tensei : Strange Journey Redux low level challenge with impossible difficulty. i'm doing it for fun lets see how far this challenge will be.

rules :
- All exp gained are minimize from boss, forced encounter(for gaining specific forma)
- Any kind of fusion is forbidden
- Password will be used to summon demon that can't be recruited or hard to recruit, or just for easy way to collect forma and bypass dungeon without me going crazy.
- all subapp is fair game except white album.

[INTRODUCTION]
Ouroboros is RNG. and maybe i already slightly understand how her RNG works but maybe i'm wrong. in nutshell you need to experience the RNG itself and kinda predict what her next move will be. just restarting lot of time will suffice.

also i'm apologize with that bad transition. still suck using software editing.

[LINEUP]
the perfect lineup should be raiju with resist phys and agilao, nekomata with null phys and agilao, and kuda with his agilao and tetraja. didn't know why i didn't think of mutating raiju skill into agilao.

[AI Behaviour]
in my run she always use lot of hama and wild thunder. i though she won't use lightning spell very often and use more phys skill but i was wrong. maybe the second form will ?

and she will use disaster cycle at certain turn. i though it was really weird why she doesn't use disaster cycle very often because when i first fought her. she use that a lot of time. probably the way my turn always end up using same stuff make her ai go the same ? more on that in Strategy section.

[Strategy]
because the lack of rakunda or acid breath in this no fusion run make this boss really challenging. the demon i know that have rakunda at near this level(level 33) is orias and matador. but the problem with that is even though both of them have strong light resistance. ouroboros hama always connect ! meaning that they will die in just one turn.

and for some reason she always act first before orias and matador before they can reduce her defense !

the solution is pretty simple. just set mc to def and they are guarantee to act first(GODDAMMIT i didn't know anything about turn order in this game).

after that the second RNG is to call my main lineup before she will use disaster cycle. which is im pretty lucky that i made in time. both ogun and raiju subtitute each other. so its irrelevant if raiju or ogun death but they can't be dead at the same time.

then after that the pattern is bead-agi-def-agi or agi-agi-def-tetraja. as long as only 2 people hit her. she doesn't use disaster cycle very often. but i'm messed up at near end so i need to use summon stone...
well i will reset this fight again until i got pretty satisfying growth for my mc. that's mean that summon stone is still remain the same as before the fight. pretty cheap but that's my way to roll in this kinda challenge.. haha.. bad habit from my previous run.

[Next Video]
got gate C search thats mean the next video will be WOG fourth sphere!

this is last day i upload at this speed. i'm busy with RL stuff so i think this run will be on hiatus.

note : 100% mamedanuki discarded his growth is terrible. idk if i can beat meme aleph ... this run looks grim

subapp used : all co-op, double down, brave heart, assailment, trigger happy, blitzkreig
