Sae's boss fight takes place on a giant roulette wheel, combining luck and strategy.

Party Setup:

  • Joker: Personas with Bless, Curse, and healing.
  • Ryuji: Physical attacks, Tarukaja.
  • Ann: Agi skills, Tarunda, Concentrate.
  • Makoto: Frei skills, Mediarama, Marakukaja.

Strategy:

  1. Roulette Wheel: Sae will spin a roulette wheel. You need to bet on the correct color (red or black) to gain an advantage. Use your 'Third Eye' (L1) to see which color is more likely to win. Bet on the color with more 'Cognitive Sae' shadows.
  2. Dice Summons: Sae will summon dice that have weaknesses. Exploit these to gain '1 More' turns and deal damage to Sae.
  3. Attack Sae: Once you've won enough rounds on the roulette wheel, Sae will become vulnerable. She is weak to Bless attacks. Unleash your strongest Bless skills (Joker, Akechi if available) and All-Out Attacks.
  4. Desperation Attack: Sae will eventually use a powerful 'Desperation' attack. Guard against this to minimize damage.
