Should You Take the Girl’s Hand in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance?
Whichever choice you choose will decide what storyline you’ll play through. Here’s what to pick!
How to Start “Knocking on Death’s Door”
To get to this quest,you’ll need to find the Magatsu Rail that leads to Nyami Nyami. It’s a bit of a tough find, butyou’ll find it near a waterfall and next toMermaid, who gives a side quest, “The Cursed Mermaids”. Ride on the rail to thetop of a buildingthat towers over whereOnmorakiandNeko Shogunare.
There, Nyami Nyami, a dragon of fortune, will confide in you that a hell-borne demon is having a bit too much fun in Da’at. In fact, they’ve been meeting or, in this case, eating the locals, almost making Nyami Nyami their lunch. Therefore, the threat, known asDormarth, needs to be stopped before they get too comfortable.
Where is Dormarth?
So we know who’s causing a ruckus, but where are they? Lucky for you, Nyami Nyami marks the exact location of Dormarth, which isunder the Underpass, and you’re able to get there right away. Well, it’s easier said than done.An Absess is located right next to them, so, if not beaten, you’ll be chased down by some Absess Demons. If you can outrun them, do so. For me, they’ll stop right before you get to Dormarth. If push comes to shove, take them out quick, as most of them will be ones you’ve fought before.
Once you get there,talk to Dormarthand they’ll give their side of the story. They’ll say that, because they’re a demon dog of Hell, they rarely get out much. So, now that they’re in a new place, they went to go sightseeing. Well, they did treat themselves to the locals, but hey, when your on vacation, you’re able to do whatever you want! Unfortunately, once you explain that the locals aren’t keen on being supper, Dormarth doesn’t take kindly to that. They’ll call out “occupational discrimination” and, in a fit of rage, take their anger out on you.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Summons New Gameplay Improvements, Additions
Revealed in an overview video, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance showcases many of the improvements and enhancements made to the original 2021 title.
Enemy: Dormarth (Level 12)
Fortunately, the hellhound can be dealt with rather easily if you play your cards right (and are Level 12). The Dormarth’s weakness is Force (Zan). Exploit that to not only deal some great damage, but give you another turn to exploit the weakness again or buff up with support abilities (specifically Sukunda) or medicine. Even though they are alone, you’ll want to take them down fast, especially if you’re weak to Dark or low on health. Their Bouncing Claws attack can scratch hard and Mudo can take you out instantly. Regardless, using Force and defending yourself when possible will help you take out Dormarth.
Return to Nyami Nyami + Reward
Once you’ve taken care of Dormarth, who’ll be upset and run back home, head back to Nyami Nyami via the waterfall Magatsu Rail. Talk to Nyami Nyami and they’ll be a bit disheartened but happy. As a reward for your efforts, you’ll receive Treacherous Chaos Periapt, which will, when two Dark-Chaos demons are in your party, unlock the Torrent of Chaos Magatsuhi skill.
