Shinagawa General Tips

Destroying the Abscess in Tennozu

SMT V Abscess in Tennozu

Destroying this Abscess will make it easier to navigate the area while finding the students.

2 Jack Frost will appear upon interacting with the Abscess. Use Fire attacks to target their weakness and avoid using Ice attacks as they will just get absorbed.

Location of the First Four Students

1. Under the north end of the highway 2. By a tree north of the leyline fount
3. At the building east of the leyline fount 4. Inside a destroyed building

Finding all four students will complete the main quest Save the Students.

Destroying the Abscess in the Container Yard

SMT V Abscess in the Container Yard

The Abscess spawns 2 Feng Huang and 2 Makami. All of them are weak to Dark attacks so bring in your strongest Mudo users to make it an easy battle, especially if you manage to land an instakill.

Destroying the Abscess in Konan 3rd Block

SMT V Abscess in Konan 3rd Block

The Abscess only sends out a Basilisk. It is weak to Electric attacks so take your strongest Zio attackers with you. You might also need a healer and a demon with Patra as Basilisk can inflict Poison.

Shinagawa Bosses and Strategies

Loup-garou

Recommended Level: 28
SMT V Loup-garou
Tips and Strategy
CheckmarkWeak to Ice and Light

CheckmarkBring Elec Dampeners

CheckmarkIncrease your Defense with buffs

CheckmarkLower its Attack with debuffs

Loup-garou's specialty is his Physical attacks and high critical rate. Bring demons with skills that can lower his Attack stat as well as demons that can raise your allies' Defense like Xuanwu and Kaya-no-Hime. These demons can also target Loup-garou's weakness with their Ice skills.

You can also bring Oni to and make it use Taunt to tank the boss' attacks.

Use an Elec Dampener when Loup-garou starts gathering Magatsuhi to protect your team from Souffle D'eclair.

How to Beat Loup-garou

Fionn mac Cumhaill

Recommended Level: 32
SMT V Fionn mac Cumhaill
Tips and Strategy
CheckmarkWeak to Electric

CheckmarkBring Fire Dampeners

CheckmarkGive Nahobino Physical resistance through essence fusion

Fionn is weak to Electric attacks so bring along demons that can target his weakness, preferably with high skill proficiency, like Mothman and Lilim, as well as some Elec Gems.

When he starts gathering Magatsuhi, use a Fire Dampener to protect your team against Maragion.

Since Fionn mostly uses Physical skills, we recommend fusing Nahobino with Oni essence and inherit its affinities to gain resistance to Physical attacks.
