Learn the optimal strategy to defeat Iryo Albion and his Bunrei (Tharmas, Luvah, Urizen, Urthona) in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster. Includes HP, weaknesses, and tactics.

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Iryo Albion — HP: 2700, MP: 1000. Immunities. Skills: Soul Discharge, Heatwave, Meikai-Ha, Fudo-ken, Guillotine Cut.
  • Bunrei Tharmas — HP: 1300, MP: 300. Immunities, Reflects Ice, Weak to Flame. Skills: Bufudain, Mahabufudain, Samarecarm.
  • Bunrei Luvah — HP: 1300, MP: 300. Immunities, Reflects Shock, Weak to Electricity. Skills: Zandain, Mahazandain, Samarecarm.
  • Bunrei Urizen — HP: 1300, MP: 300. Immunities, Reflects Flame, Weak to Ice. Skills: Agidain, Maharagidain, Samarecarm.
  • Bunrei Urthona — HP: 1300, MP: 300. Immunities, Reflects Electricity, Weak to Shock. Skills: None listed.

Phases:

  1. Albion summons all four Bunrei at the start of the fight.
  2. The Bunrei can cast Samarecarm with zero MP cost.
  3. Enemies will slump over when near death.
  4. If all Bunrei are dead, Albion will resurrect them.
  5. If Albion dies, the Bunrei will resurrect him.
  6. The goal is to defeat Albion and all Bunrei in a single turn.

Strategy:

  • Focus on defeating three of the Bunrei first. Albion will not resurrect them as long as at least one remains.
  • After eliminating three Bunrei, shift your focus to Albion. Weaken him until he is slumped over.
  • Next, weaken the final remaining Bunrei until it is also slumped over.
  • If the final Bunrei slumps over mid-turn, use remaining Press Turns to heal or pass to ensure you have a full turn to attack both Albion and the final Bunrei.
  • When only Albion and one Bunrei remain, prioritize defeating Albion first. If you kill the last Bunrei while Albion is still alive, he will immediately resurrect them, even if you have Press Turns remaining.
