Lavenza Boss Fight Solo Joker No DLC (Merciless) - Persona 5 Royal 

RNG involved summarized: Critical in Phase 1 (more Wind dmg/prevents Lavenza using Dekunda), Freeze Gun Technical, Dream Needle critical/ailment, and 2-3 crits in a row in Phase 3. And, a miss anywhere in Phase 1-3 requires a restart. (There's a 60% critical cap in P5R btw.) - 9:32 One thing I wasn't aware of when doing this, Endure and Enduring Soul can activate separately. So Endure can also be used here to save yourself up to 3 times (with Final Guard)

7:46 9:58 10:41 Akechi got tired of waiting for the Showtime, so he just left

Hearing “WHATWHATWHATWHATWHATWHATWHAT” always makes me cackle omfg😂

“Nothing personal.” “I bAIrlY sTarteD”

When Lavenza's chainsaw attack gets repelled I'm imagining her hitting joker then the chainsaw just bounces back to her and hit her head with it....

"I fired, then I missed, and I fired, missed again, fired again, missed; this went on for several hours. Then I got a popsicle from the fridge, I missed, grabbed a cabbage..."

Joker: No Akechi, this is a solo run Futaba: A what?

It's like I said in Roblu's video, the planning that goes into these solo fights is nothing short of impressive, whether it's with dlc or not!

Joker: gets confused Detox: i got you homie

It’s hard enough to solo but people are complaining about dlc wtf

This is some dedication and praying to be bless by the RNG gods. Good job!

*One shot kill* *Resist* *One shot kill* *Resist* *One shot kill* *Resist* Lavenza: "You are like baby, watch this." *One shot kill* *Crits, ACTUALLY one shot kills*

So the strategy for phase 4 without DLCs is 5-10 minutes of "why are you hitting yourself" bullying?...Poor Lavenza She can't catch a break, first the abuse from her sister Elizabeth and from her beloved Trickster...

6:49 someone remix that

Lavenza: It appears lady luck was not on your side. *Next Round begins * Proceeds to be blessed by the Rng gods and solos boss. Joker: You were saying?

Congratz man you finally did it, thanks for give me credit, I like your idea of give retaliating body to more personas in Phase 1 for extra damage, in Phase 4 you can add Endure for one save more

I just bought the dlc since it was on sale and I still can’t beat her even with other team members lmao

This was so cool! Everything was perfectly executed. Nice job!

I like how she hit herself more than she hit you

All those Showtime's not being used hurt my soul.

Lavenza: I’ll show you my true power *concentrated megidolan* meanwhile in persona 3 Yukari: I’ll show you my true power *Diarhan*

Amazed you did it even with DLCs last time and now you wen't beyond, you trully are the King of Tricksters

I wonder why doesn't the AI all out attack you after she hits your weakness. btw, I am honestly so impressed with both you and RoBLu for completing this challenge.

"Next time Akechi" Turns Akechi down next time. Feels bad :( Great job!

Everytime i think im done with playing P5R ( i played it since launch non-stop ) you come up with a new build then i gotta fire up the game again and start grinding lol thank you for all the content man.

This is great, and man was akechi desperate to help you lmao

With dedication and hard work, anything is possible. That was impressive.. Cheers!~

it’s nice to see a high schooler beat up a middle schooler by screaming “persona”

*It wasn't Bainz that destroyed Lavenza, It was Girimehkala, The True Trickster*

I never understood Lavenza's persona choice for phase 4. Like, Thor for Ice?? What? Other than that, congrats on achieving this feat thought to be impossible. You've just completed the hardest challenge of any persona game imo. Amazing!

Joker: Uses hassou tobi Lavenza: WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? WHAT?WHAT? WHAT?

N O T H I N G P E R S O N A L

WOW! Nice job! Here I was proud of uploading my solo fight to my channel the other day only to find out it *IS* possible without DLC... looks like I have my work cut out for me over these next few days!!!

at the end i was wondering about what you were doing then i thought about it and know i think your a genius

6:48 ... this is ... requiem.

He did it. He really did it.

Impressive I might make my own video doing this good up the good work you’ll get big my freind

I’m so sorry that you were put through such torture. But I’m glad it worked out in the end.

HE HAS DONE IT! i need to work on this soon

I like how Akechi is begging for showtime

Looking cool joker

"No DLC" *Uses DLC skin* LOL but great strat btw! 🔥 Earned a sub

Looking cool Joker!

She's only a little kid what can she do River in a dry land starts playing Joker: oh fu--

Joker: you call it resisting one shot kill, we call it *A DIFFICULTY TWEAK*

Smashed it lad well fucking done

This battle is quite poetic..... The true enemy lies within the self xD

Major kudos for only using Yoshitsune once instead of the usual Hassou Tobi spam you'd expect from solo challenges, AND for blurring the target's name at the end

you absolute fucking madman. congrats dude!!

She really does hit you with the "nuthin personnel kid"

Ooh, Joker! You're looking cool!

impressive

I love how during she deals damage to herself, you actually didn't kill her, she did

Damn thought this was impossible without myriad. Congrats

"So you can endure it" Nyeh you even die by your own skill btw 😢😢😢

10:41 I wonder, just who was that showtime with?

Awesome 😎 video still haven’t beaten her try for 5 hrs she’s tough

he was able to hear our prayers

Now that's comedy

Bainz be like: "Are you challenging me, mortals?

You could have used endure or enduring soul to survive lavenzas one shot if you had it on any persona. And she doesnt resist wind in either stance in phase 4 so you could have had a repel all and spammed wind to pump out damage

That persona he said at the beginning

This dude is OP af

So technically the wildcards are the strongest things in the persona universe along with ryuji because he somehow lived through his momentos body getting destroyed and came back like it was normal.

burh a ad had came up after lavenza had finsihed her all-out attack

ok so because I'm a masochist I decided to do this challenge so I might as well tell you how it went. First, it took me a total of 36 tries to beat Lavenza without DLC. I only got to the third phase 3 times out of the 36 tries and I only got to the fourth phase only twice. Here are the stats for how many times each Crit or tech attack hit: Phase 1 one-shot kill -> 21/34 = 0.5833 or 58.3% Since there is a cap of 60% for Crit in P5R this makes sense. Phase 2 Ice gun technical -> 12/21 = 0.5714 or 57.1% this percentage can probably increase if you have freeze boost on your "dream needle" persona, I only had ailment boost on mine. Phase 2 Dream Needle -> 3/12 = 0.25 or 25% This is by far the biggest wall in this fight. Phase 3 Sword Dance -> 5/5 = 1 or 100% (I made it to this point only 3 times: run 13th, 23rd, and 36th) run 23rd: I got pretty lucky with Crits in Phase 3, the only reason why I didn't make it to Phase 4 on run 23rd was because I got very unlucky with dodging Psy attacks so by the time I made it to Phase 4 I already had burned through Futaba and enduring soul. I didn't use Endure btw. run 13th: this fight was very weird, I got hit with a Crit at the beginning of Phase 2 from a one-shot kill so I was left with 300-ish Hp so after I hit the tech with the Ice gun Lavenza changed to Anubis as usual but she used a megidolaon instead of using an instant kill attack and left me with 50 Hp. The Crit from dream needle landed, used megidolaon on her, dodged the Nuke attack but since Futaba didn't heal before I had to use Sword Dance I was unable to continue. run 36th: I landed 3 Crits in a row, thanked the RNG Gods for this miracle, and continued to victory. Over all success rate -> 1/36 = 0.0278 or 2.7% yep this fight is difficult and if it wasn't for the fact that I got blessed with sword dance it probably would've taken me another 20 to 30 tries. GGs Lavenza P.S. Fuck dream needle

I love this because phase 4 is basically Lavenza hurting herself

“We’ve barely started”

"Let's do this!" "Let's do this, Joker..." *haha no* damn tho soloing is hard enough already and without izanagi? hoooooo man and the rng gods

And this is why i love using yoshitsune

Lavenza spamming ice skills like: end this already youre the true trickster

This is really cool and I know you were going for an important strat but seeing you not use showtime physically hurt me.

"Phase 4: Finish off Lavenza before she one-shots you." Oh, 'cuz you know... No pressure, or anything.

Finally, a fight with a strat worth making a video about. Props to you.

0:44 did she just say sike?

So hard. I did the max satanael, fafnir, abbadon for heat riser and debilitate, yoshitsune "brave blade apt pupil". Merciless impossible took me a week to formulate the patterns fucking hell.

3:57 Satanael tho looks soo coool

Lavenza's all out attack is the best

People: complain about DLC use for a genuinely unfair and luck based challenge This guy: Aight fine, we'll do it your way

Lavenza : Congratulations you defeated me. Joker : Actually you kinda defeat yourself.

Honestly i gave up on lavenza because i dont like min maxing(build up to boss just to one shot is kinda boring) but no matter how many times i run her my mates refuse to dodge even with evade, they always get ailments even with haru on the team, joker doesnt detox the one time its fatal if he keeps the ailment, i dont crit when i need to, basically anything that can go wrong does

"I've barely started. c:" Lavenza in a nutshell.

6:49 that's a lot of confusion in a couple of seconds XD

Futaba really clutched that one for you

6:49 Koda Ga..Requiem...Da...

So phrase four is basically: Lavenza: does anything Joker: why are you hitting yourself?

Final phase joker: "Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself?"

Persona 5 is so awesome nice gameplay love it (I'm stuck on boss part🤗😁

Joker should be able to floor a child with a library book

oh.

6:41 and Lavenza goes uau uat uat uat uat

Joker to Lavenza in last round: Stop hitting yourself...

Lavenza: WHY WONT YOU DIE?!?!? Joker: RNG Son

6:49 Me, every time I engage with social media on any level.

Thor having Ice skills just feels... wrong. Somehow. ._. Also, amazing fight!

6:48 WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT

I don't know how the hell that showtime with Akechi showed up.

So this...is the true trickster...

phase 4 is just "why are you hitting yourself ?"

The dlc personas are free on the PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One/Series and windows
