How to beat Okumura boss fight?

[Killermoose69]

I'm level 44 and need help. My hifumi confidant is only at level 7 so I don't have switch either ...guess im stuck?

There are lots of guides about it:

- Search one of the 1039409340 guides or videos about it.
- Lower the difficulty, or Merciless for extra weak damage.

You can switch during Joker's turn at that level. Anyway it's pretty easy:
1. Destroy all foes in one or two turns hitting their weaknesses with all-foes spells
2. If their defense is raised, decrease it
3. Assemble items that deal damage of an element. Use them, baton pass, and the last baton pass goes to the party member with an all target spell that hit the weakness

What wave are you stuck on? Tips for 5th wave but apply to all other waves
- Level up the Haru's Baton Pass to lvl 3
- Craft Psy bombs
- Make sure to null/decrease enemy's defense
- Random char 1 uses Psy bomb, Baton Pass into random char 2 who uses another Psy Bomb, Baton Pass into Joker for single target Psy (or another bomb if you don't have a Psy Persona), Baton Pass into Haru for double AoE Psy

Noob question but how you upgrade Baton pass?

Darts. Be sure to get 0 on your companion to get 2 ranks.

One bit of advice that helped me (at least if you don't have the elemental attack as an item):

If a character only has a weak all-foes skill (e.g. Mapsi) but a stronger single-foe skill (Psio), the overall damage from the turn can be more if you use the single-foe skill to hit each enemy's weakness, and is worth the few extra seconds it might take.

Another thing you don't get told immediately (although I think Oracle mentions it eventually) is that the Execution Order effectively resets your "progress" in the battle, and so it's in your interests for each party member to maximise their damage - hence stronger single target skills if you have them.

Above tips cover it all but the last big robot, he doesn't have a weakness, you have to hit technicals, i personally used Makoto to buff ailments, stun gun, and a basic shock spell, he's easy to get shocked, after that just use your strongest physical skill, when he summons the Haru bot, just guard for like 2 turns.

You don't really need baton pass upgrades for this boss, I had Haru with no BP upgrades and was fine.

Basically, each wave of robots has 2 weaknesses, so someone in your party should always have the required spells, and everyone else will throw magatamas/bombs. You start by using a SINGLE TARGET spell or a magatama on the first robot, then baton pass to another party member, they do the same on the second robot, and so on until you finally baton pass to Joker or whoever has the AoE spell and finish off the whole wave in one go.

Note that switching the difficulty to Merciless in the options will let you deal 3x weakness damage making this way easier but the semi-final wave has a tanky robot with no weaknesses and a nasty almighty attack that can easily wipe out the whole party, so probably not worth it overall.

switch team member on Joker's turn, is that a waste? I wasted a turn for Joker's damage no?

[Killermoose69]

Is there anyway to do this on hard with my party without switching or any items? Level 44 currently..

Haru
Joker
Morgona
Mokoto

Yeah you waste a turn, but it's not tragic if you exploit weakness and baton pass. If you really need a party member that's not currently in the party you can switch, exploit weakness and baton pass to Joker if you need him to do something that you couldn't do cause of switching

I had to switch several times to do the boss fight efficiently. However, if you don't want to switch I guess you could use the accessories that grant an additional skill on the party to cover all elements which the foes are weak to. I mean, give Haru some fire spell, Morgana ice and so on

Unironically switch to Merciless, it's much easier than Hard for this particular boss fight. I've done it on Merciless and you only need to baton pass 1-2 times to one hit KO the robots with an AoE spell.

There are 5 waves of 4x robots with the following weaknesses:
MDL-WKR: Fire and Wind
MDL-CH: Ice and Psy
MDL-AM: Elec and Nuke
MDL-DM: Wind and Bless
MDL-GM: Psy and Curse

You should have a good amount of magatamas in your inventory just from exploring mementos, now's the time to use them.

i do have accessories...i did not know i can apply to other party members. i thought its only for joker lol...i will try that xD

Ha i just did this one on hard today before seeing this topic. Died 3 times to the 5th wave before i got through only to get big burgered.... Then i died again to the underlings and actually went back to save the night before and crafted some more psybombs to be able to set up the triple batton pass. Sadly Haru hadnt gone darting with me yet but ok... I needed the triple batton pass and enough bombs to do enough damage to knock em down. I actuallty have lvl 71 dominion on joker but he only had a single target psy attack not enough to kill all 4.

Big Burger make sure you try to get defense up and guard joker or you get one shot by the burger attack it seems... In the winning try he never got around to it. What i found to work really well is to use forget with makato (other cc didnt work)and then psy attack for technical. Also used Anns electric gun for another technical so it never got the BB attack going in the final try luckily! Nuke worked really well against the shock status apparently.

Happy i got through it. Seriously i love this game but why cant you even EXIT a fight when you know you are going to lose (or not save for 40 min) LOL
