How to Defeat killer teddy bear?

[Mustadio7813]

I need a lot of help, some advices or a trick to continue the story (I've been a lot of time and I CAN´T KILL IT)...how can I do to continue with the main story, it is possible to farm exp increase the lvl and do it again (I suppose doing this is easier to kill it my characters are lvl 9 and lvl 6), each try to kill it this damn shadow kill all the team in no more two or three attack.

PD: It is possible to continue the main story without kill it, because I'm starting to despeair.

This Teddy Bear you speak of is a special shadow, you'll get the chance to go back and fight it later. You can keep enjoying the story for the time being, this shadow is meant to be fought later on once you're at a much higher level, not in early game.

Its... uh... level 40.

Come back later.

You should already expected that you may have a chance to go back to the dungeons the moment you can't beat the shadow at your current level. but yea come back later after reaching level 40

[Deathghost]

its a level 40 shadow so u can only be able to defeat it once you get to that level , otherwise you will be doing 1 damage all the time

Get levels and get skills that debuff your opponent and buff your team mates. Basically -Attack -Defense -Agility for enemy and +Attack +Defense +Agility for team mates. Skull gets +Agility for team at higher level, Queen gets +Defense and Fox gets +Agility. As Joker, you can create a persona(s) that do reduce these stats for opponent. With this guys and yourself, you should be able to keep strong shadows in check and maintain a reliable pace without draining yourself too much. Having bonus to buff / debuff in Bonds section also helps a lot as you can extend the duration of buffs / debuffs, which means you will cast those less often while benefit from them for longer period of time.

He's uh... level 9. He'd be lucky to not run out of SP healing a papercut.

Also buff spam of that level devours SP unless you're not using spells offensively to create openings.

Get to near the end of the game, put Ryuji in your party, X, then hold Y level 3 charge attacks until you win. That's how i beat most of the dire shadows.

He is not supposed to fight bear or any other high-level strong shadows in the first place then. As I said he should get levels and gear first, like 45 - 55 and stuff from Sophie and invest into proper stuff from Bonds Menu, like Buff / Debuff duration and HP / SP boost. The reason why I suggest such build is because it works well and helps avoiding situations where your team mates get insta-killed on higher difficulties while also speeds up the process because the shadow has reduced armor while you and your team mates have increased attack damage.

There's no point in fighting these until level 50, as fusions you unlock by defeathing them, all seems to be level 50+.

As for how to fight them, try to have at least 2 teammember that can stike its weakness. Use persona skills only to interupt shadows attacks by stiking its weakness and smashing shield icon bellow its health bar, everytime you destoy 1 shield you stun the enemy, When you run out of sp, switch to other party member that can exploit weakness. When you run out of sp with second party member, restore it with cooked food (bond skill that increases item stenght helps a lot).

The dire ones are different from the request ones, they also drop god-tier accessories for stat boosts.
