“A Plot Revealed” is the finale toShin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance’s multi-quest Demeter arc, available only if you’ve done the prior stuff (which should remain available to you even this late in the game if you haven’t!), and it’s well worth the effort to obtain.
You’ll be squaring off against the one and only Zeus in a fun fight with an excellently fitting reward: Zeus himself to add to your Demon Compendium. You’ll also get to hear Demeter say “Harvest time!” several more times, and what more could we ask for? Here’s how to get going with this fun finale.
How To Begin The Plot Revealed
Before you can get started on “The Plot Revealed”,you need to have done “The Bull God’s Lineage”, a side quest that can be done a little earlier in the story. For “The Bull God’s Lineage”,head to western Taito, where you’ll find Demeter.
We’re pretty sure you have to do Demeter’s prior quests before you may even tackle “The Bull God’s Lineage”,including “The Horn of Plenty”.
After you’ve taken care of these earlier requests, it won’t be hard to find Demeter for this final time:Demeter will be waiting for you along the linear path in the game’s final dungeon, the Empyrean.
Chat her up, and after a rather surprising little revelation over her original intent in seeking out the Nahobino’s aid,you’ll enter battle with Zeus.
How To Beat Zeus
Zeus is level 82, which makes him considerably more formidable than he was during your initial, story-mandatory, encounter. On the other hand,he’s alone this time.
Heavy Hitter
But trust us, Zeus doesn’tneeda companion this time:his Strength is 98, and his Magic is 93. His most dangerous attack is the uniqueKeraunos, which dealssevere electric damage to one target while ignoring resistance and piercing through.
You needn’t worry about Zeus' innate skill, sinceHerkeios elevates electric attacks' critical rate and accuracy based on the number of allies in stock.Since Zeus is, well, an enemy here, he doesn’t have a stock.
Bring Your Best
Withimmunities to Electric, Light, and Dark, but aweakness to Force, you’ll obviously want to prioritize Force-based attacks.Force Gemswork in a pinch.
It’s not a bad idea toalter the Nahobino’s affinities to block or even drain Electric and Physical, which will make him darn near invincible in this battle!
But Force is only half your available arsenal.Zeusresists, but isn’timmune to, several ailmentsthat can really put him off his game. you’re able to alsolower his stats,which is particularly advisable since hisLuster candy move will raise them all. Fight fire with fire, as they say.
For defeating Zeus,not only will he join, but Demeter will as well. She did promise, after all. Harvest time!
