Persona 3 Reload introduces formidable bosses stationed on various floors throughout Tartarus, known as Tartarus Guardian bosses, each presenting a significant challenge. Today, we’ll delve into one of the formidable Guardian bosses: The Invigorated Gigas.
Where to find the Invigorated Gigas boss battle
In Persona 3 Reload, the Invigorated Gigas stands as a colossal Shadow, serving as the Guardian boss for Floor 171 within the fourth block of Tartarus, Tziah. Tartarus floor bosses are formidable adversaries, and the Invigorated Gigas exemplifies this with its formidable offensive capabilities and a substantial health pool of 2,600 HP.
At this stage in Tartarus, most bosses possess minimal weaknesses, with some lacking any weaknesses altogether, necessitating a strategic approach to combat.
Invigorated Gigas boss weaknesses
Regrettably, the Invigorated Gigas is among the few bosses devoid of weaknesses. Consequently, elemental damage cannot be exploited to knock it down, necessitating reliance on physical damage skills. Furthermore, the Invigorated Gigas exhibits resistance to Ice and complete immunity to Light and Dark damage, including instakill attacks.
Given its lack of weaknesses, this battle may prolong, emphasizing the importance of fusing a Persona with high HP to withstand the Invigorated Gigas’ onslaught. Prepare by equipping a Persona proficient in physical damage skills, prioritizing those with a high chance of landing critical hits.
How to defeat the Invigorated Gigas
The Invigorated Gigas excels in physical damage, employing an array of Strike attacks capable of swiftly incapacitating your team if unprepared. Buffing itself with Heat Riser and Revolution, the boss unleashes devastating moves like Gigantic Fist, Herculean Strike, and Heat Wave.
Furthermore, it augments its Strike attacks with Strike Boost, enhancing its offensive prowess by 25 percent. The combination of Heat Riser, Revolution, and Apt Pupil heightens the likelihood of critical hits against your team. To counter these threats, strategic planning is essential.
Deploying a Persona with access to Tetrakarn can significantly ease the battle by reflecting the boss’s Strike damage. Fusion of Shiki-Ouji from the Chariot Arcana proves invaluable due to its innate ability to repel Strike attacks. Maintain healing support and unleash your most potent physical assaults to gradually overcome this formidable opponent.
