Complete walkthrough for Part 49 of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux, covering the boss fight against Gore, obtaining Cosmic Eggs, and navigating Horologium, Antlia, Bootes, Carina, and Delphinus.
Walkthrough
- 1Boss Fight: Gore
- Recommended team: Elemental attackers (especially Wind), buffs (Luster Candy, Rakukaja), and debuffs (Debilitate, Tarunda, War Cry, Dekaja).
- 2Main Character: Equip armor strong to Phys and Gun (e.g., Armor Vest). A Wind elemental gun is beneficial for Co-Op attacks.
- 3Gore's Abilities: He hits hard if not debuffed. He uses Self-Denial to buff his attack, which can be removed with Dekaja if Debilitate or Tarunda are not used.
- 4Damage Strategy: Gore reflects Phys and Gun attacks. Use Elemental or Almighty attacks. Wind + Co-Ops can be effective but requires a custom team.
- 5Boss Mechanics: Gore has the highest HP of any non-optional boss and will heal himself for 7500 HP once or twice.
