What Does Vitality (Vit) Do

This is a guide to the Vitality (Vit) Stat in Shin Megami Tensei III HD Remaster (SMT Nocturne) for the Switch, PS4, and Steam! Read on to learn what is Vitality, what is the effect of Vitality, and should you raise your Vitality stat.

What Does Vitality Do?

The Vitality stat raises the Demi-Fiend's HP by a certain amount. While HP automatically increases after every level up, an additional point in Vitality will add even more.

How To Raise Vitality

Levelling Up

The Vitality stat can be raised by spending skill points when the Demi-Fiend levels up. Sometimes, when a magatama acts violently during a level up, it can even grant you a random bonus stat point!

Equipping Magatama

Magatama each give different boosts to the Demi-Fiend's stats. Swapping equipped magatama can raise the Vit stat when certain ones are equipped. For example, the Ankh Magatama gives a +4 bonus to Vit.

Using Items

Stats can also be permanently raised outside of leveling-up by using an item called Incense.

Incense, when consumed, grants 1 extra point to their associated stat. For example, Vitality Incense raises Vit. by 1.

Incenses can be obtained from shops by getting 10 lucky tickets and availing the box prizes from the junk shop!
