Learn how Magatama customize the hero's abilities, affinities, and stats in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster. There are 25 in total.
Unlike demonic allies whose skills are preset or inherited through fusion, the hero's abilities are determined by the Magatama he uses. There are 25 Magatama to discover throughout the game. By swallowing a Magatama, it fuses with the hero, altering his Affinity (elements he is strong/weak to) and statistics. Crucially, it also changes the skills the hero will learn as he levels up. The choice of Magatama and when you use them significantly impacts the hero's advancement.
The hero can only utilize one Magatama at a time; any others remain in his stock. While the game describes this as swallowing, it functions similarly to equipping special demon equipment.
- Carefully consider which Magatama to use and when, as it dictates your hero's progression.
- Think of Magatama as a form of demon equipment for the hero.
