Faq type: Shin Megami Tensei II Sword Fusion faq Author (me!): Look Over There If for some reason you have a desire to ask me a question, praise me, revile me, offer a suggestion to me. or whatever, you should be able to reach me at bleepinghell@yahoo.com Put something related to Shin Megami Tensei II in the subject line, or I just may dispose of it without a glance out of paranoia. ********************************************************************* Version history: 1.00 - September 30, 2008 - First release ********************************************************************* All trademarks and copyrights contained in this document are owned by their respective trademark and copyright holders. ********************************************************************* This file should really only be publicly available on GameFAQs.com ********************************************************************* So anyway, hello and welcome to this guide for SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI II. The subject will be, of course, the sword fusion system in this game. It's not something that's discussed much, because a. the game doesn't tell you about it and b. if you look at the section on it in Re-Miel's faq, it can seem pretty complex at first glance. You wouldn't even know about sword fusion unless you had a sword in your inventory that can be used in a fusion; the options wouldn't even be there. Once you do have such a sword in hand though, options to fuse 1 sword with a demon, 2 swords, or 2 swords with a demon will show up in the Jakyo Manor. Now what can be so interesting about sword fusion? The best swords are, in the normal game, gotten through this system. Once you've played enough of this game, you'll realize a couple of things. One is that physical attacks are your primary source of damage. Two is that eventually your humans will outdamage your demons by quite a bit. Sword fusion lets you accentuate this characteristic of fighting in Shin Megami Tensei II. The three resources which I'll be borrowing a lot from: http://hkaityo.hp.infoseek.co.jp/dq/index.html - where I get item drop info Item List by Darian - all weapon stats are copied from this Faq/Walkthrough by Re-Miel - more or less everything else is taken from or derived from this. Re-Miel's faq contains the fusion tables which I used to come up with, and eventually test, the fusions listed in this file. It contains all of the sword fusion equations. So if Re-Miel's faq does all that, then what's the point of mine? The way sword fusion is listed in Re-Miel's faq can be rather imposing, especially if you're reading it over for the first time. Let's say that you've looked over Darian's item list and saw all these awesome swords that you wanted to get. Then you hop over to Re-Miel's and look up the sword fusion section. If you want to go from nothing to final product, it can be rather confusing. Maybe you'll figure out a way, maybe you won't. If you can, fantastic. If you can't, then this faq is for you. What I will try to do with this faq is to list each notable sword that can be made, then for each sword, list a way or two to make that sword from the basic sword fusion ingredients. You will notice a LOT of copy and pasting by me. The purpose of this design is so that you can hop down to any sword in particular, and within that section should be all the information that you need to make that sword. By no means do I suggest that my routes are the best. They're supposed to serve as examples. If after reading this, you can come up with faster, simpler routes (be it for sword or demon fusion), then that's great. You've improved as a player of Shin Megami Tensei II. ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* The three swords in this section will be seen over and over again through this file. They are the base swords that you, for the most part, must start from. Renki-no-ken (Refined-Spirit Sword in Re-Miel's FAQ) Attack = 58 Hit% = 40 # of Attacks = 1 Gender: MALE, FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS Fuujin-ken (Wind-God Sword in Re-Miel's FAQ) Attack = 133 Hit% = 51 # of Attacks = 2, Inflict PARALYZE STR +2, LCK +1 Gender: MALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS Raijin-ken (Thunder-God Sword in Re-Miel's FAQ) Attack = 148 Hit% = 39 # of Attacks = 3-6, Inflicts SHOCK STR +2, LCK +1 Gender: FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS Renki-no-ken drops from Tenshi Principality and Youki Turdak. I think that you can first encounter them sometime while gathering Masakado's parts. Fuujin-ken drops from Youma Hanuman. I don't remember how far into the Abyss you have to be to first encounter him. Raijin-ken drops from Youki Yaksha. Again, I don't remember how far into the Abyss you'll have to go to first encounter him. And since they're normally gotten as drops, I'll refer to them as 'sword drops' later in this guide. I will be composing this file under the assumption that the above three swords will be gotten as drops, thus placing the prospective player far enough into the game to have encountered wild Hanuman and Yaksha so that they can bronze-box summon them. !!! HOWEVER, it IS possible to convert a Renki-no-ken into a Fuujin-ken or a Raijin-ken. So theoretically, you can make some swords right after having the Devil Analyze info on Principality and/or Turdak to bronze-box summon with. Or just farm them via regular random encounters. Anyway, to convert a Renki-no-ken into one of the other two swords... Renki-no-ken x Reichou Sparna = Kogitsune-maru Kogitsune-maru x Reichou Phoenix = Raijin-ken OR... Kogitsune-maru x (any Youjuu) = Fuujin-ken Here are a few ways to make a Sparna: Seijuu Unicorn x Youchou Benu (Chaos can't recruit Benu) Seijuu Unicorn = Yousei Jack Frost x Majuu Cait Sith Youchou Benu x Kijo Hag (Neutral only can recruit both Youchou and Kijo) Datenshi Ukobach x Majuu Cait Sith x Datenshi Gagison (Law can't recruit Datenshi) Here are a few ways to make a Phoenix: Seijuu Unicorn x Youchou Ocypete (Chaos can't recruit Youchou) Seijuu Unicorn = Yousei Jack Frost x Majuu Cait Sith Youchou Ocypete x Kijo Hag (Neutral only can recruit both) Datenshi Gagison x Majuu Nekomata x Datenshi Eligor (Law can't recruit Datenshi) Making a Youjuu for the sake of having a Youjuu for converting a sword is pretty easy. For the Lawful players, try (any Majuu) x (any Demonoid) Neutral and Chaotic players have the above option as well as the option of (any Majuu) x (any Youki) !!! Again, I will be making this file from the perspective that you'll be getting the Fuujin-ken and Raijin-ken as drops. But you always have the option to convert Renki-no-ken into one of the other two swords. If you decide to do so, then more power to you earlier in the game. ********************************************************************* And one last tip before on with the show... Seirei fusion. If you have a demon that's just too low level or high level for a particular fusion, but the one above or below it in the same family would work, seirei fusion can help you in your quest to get swords as early as possible. Tenshi x Tenshi is an easy way to make a Sylph (3rd highest seirei) Kijo x Kijo makes Undine (2nd highest seirei) production easy Ryuu-ou x Ryuu-ou should also produce Undine One example application of this is turning a Tenshi Angel (lv 21) into a Tenshi Power (lv 36) with a quick Angel x Undine. It can help if you haven't found wild Power for your Devil Analyze yet. I won't get into it much, but if you think about it, there's a lot of potential in Seirei fusion. As long as Aleph has the level, you can use Seirei to climb up families and make higher demons before you're 'normally' capable of (normally being just directly recruiting from random encounters or bronze-box summons). See Re-Miel's faq for more details on Seirei fusion. I have the feeling that you can produce good swords earlier than expected if you combine the concepts of Renki-no-ken conversion and Seirei fusion. Whether my feeling is right or not...well, that's up to you, the reader. ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* Sword Index: [FRM] (formatting) [X00] Luna Blade [X01] Seki-no-Kanesada [X02] Kogitsune-maru [X03] Deathbringer [X04] Meitou-Kotetsu [X05] Bizen-Osafune [X06] Sol-Blade [X07] Hannya-Nagamitsu [X08] Ken'un-maru [X09] Ame-no-Nuboko [X0A] Musou-Masamune [X0B] Ame-no-Murakumo [X0C] Yatsuka-no-Ken (Two-Feet Sword) [X0D] Konryuu-maru [X0E] Hinokagutsuchi [X0F] Youtou-Muramasa (Demon-Blade Muramasa) ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* [FRM] Format shall be as follows: Route(s): /* Possible sword-fusion routes that I made and feel are noteworthy, either because of lower level requirement, fewer demons required, or fewer sword drops required.

Kuchinawa's Sword Attack = 140 Hit% = 38 # of Attacks = 0-1 STR +2, SPD +1 Gender: MALE, FEMALE Alignment: NEUTRAL Youtou Nihil Attack = 115 Hit% = 50 # of Attacks = All Enemies MAG +3 Gender: MALE, FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS Kuchinawa's Sword is pretty bad and can be gotten as a drop anyway. Ryuu-ou Raja Naga should be able to drop this. The Youtou Nihil isn't that horrible, but it's cursed. But anyway, it can be gotten as a drop from Jaki Cyclops. In my experience, they're not even particularly rare. I've gotten a bunch just walking through tunnels in the Abyss. --- There are a few more weapons that I'd like to point out. They aren't available through fusion, so they don't really fit the scope of the faq. But they're weapons, so I still kinda want to mention them. And here we go: Majou-sen Attack = 108 Hit% = 40 # of Attacks = All Enemies, Inflicts FREEZE STR +1, SPD +1, LCK +1 Gender: FEMALE Alignment: NEUTRAL This drops from Ryuu-ou Oto-Hime. Yea, it's not particularly strong and the hit% bonus is kinda meh. Ignore that. That's not why this is a very helpful weapon. Notice that it hits all and it inflicts Freeze. As long as the demon is not immune to ice, there is a very high chance of Freeze landing. So as long as Hiroko has enough speed to go before the enemies, you can freeze-lock the enemy party for the fight. Auto-battle anybody? Gleipnir Attack = 120 Hit% = 70 # of Attacks = All enemies, Inflicts BIND SPD +3 Gender: FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS This supposedly drops from Chirei Titan. I haven't gotten one myself, but it should work with the same principle as Majou-sen. Fergus' Sword Attack = 130 Hit% = 32 # of Attacks = 4-6, Inflicts CLOSE STR +1, STM +2 Gender: MALE, FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS This drops from Datenshi Baphomet. It's a decent sword to use against bosses, given the # of attacks it has. I've had fun silencing a few bosses. I remember that it worked on Master Therion, but I don't remember who else that it worked on. Gae Bolga Attack = 155 Hit% = 33 # of Attacks = All enemies STR +2, LCK +1 Gender: FEMALE Alignment: LAW, NEUTRAL, CHAOS This supposedly drops from Yousei Cu Chulainn. If you want a hit-all for Hiroko that has more oomph but without the status ailment, go for it. --- Guess I'll talk a bit about Kongokai. It's the secret dungeon that can only be accessed after you've beaten the game (on a separate file). Black Murasame63's faq should have more info on the general how and what it is. I'll talk a bit about what can be dropped there, from the demons that I've seen there. Unfortunately, I don't have the stats to get into the neutral dungeon, so I've only seen the demons in the main area of Kongokai. Amatsukami Amaterasu can drop Megido Fire Amatsukami Tsukuyomi can drop Ame-no-Nuboko Amatsukami Takemikazuchi can drop Yatsuka-no-ken Kunitsukami Arahabaki can drop Masakado's Katana Kunitsukami Takeminakata can drop Kurikara's Sword Kunitsukami Oonamuchi can drop Ame-no-Murakumo Hakaishin Susa-no-o can drop Hinokagutsuchi Shinjuu Barong can drop Soma Megido Fire (it's a Gun!) Attack = 170 Hit% = 60 # of Attacks = All enemies Gender: MALE, FEMALE Alignment: LAW Kurikara's Sword Attack = 195 Hit% = 90 # of Attacks = 3-5, Inflicts PARALYZE STR +3, INT +1, MAG +2 Gender: MALE Alignment: CHAOS --- One last drop note cause I figure it can be useful: Youju Yggdrasil and Jaryuu Kingu can drop Soma. And we all like collecting Soma. ********************************************************************* ********************************************************************* Shout outs to: Aeon Genesis - for translating this game Atlus - for developing this game, along with the rest of the SMT universe Black Murasame63 - for composing a great FAQ for this game; I've used it quite a bit.
