How to Defeat Reaper

After finishing the main story of Persona 5 Strikers and complete all the Powerful Shadow Requests, head to the Okinawa Jail. This is a pretty powerful boss that can give you a tough time in the battle, more so if you are ill-prepared for the battle. The secret boss appears when a new Request by the name of Knocking on Death’s Door appears in the requests list. Accept the request and you will find the boss in Okinawa Jail.

Going in with a powerful party that not only supports you in battle but can attack the boss’s weaknesses will significantly increase your victory chances. In addition, you should also bring a lot of SP and HP recovering items. This means you should cook the right amount of food and items that will boost all your party members and prolong your survival in the battle.

You can also make Joker equip a Persona that counters one of the magic types of the boss. This massively increases your survival rate as the Reaper uses Magic attacks more commonly. You can also have Sophia and Zenkichi join the party to support you with healing in the battle. Sophia and Zenkichi both play the role of healing other characters who are in the frontline of the battle.

Furthermore, equipping the most powerful armor and weapons will increase your defense and increase the damage output respectively. Check out Sophia’s Shop to get the best armor and weapons you can get for all characters.

In the battle, you should use Almighty attacks to effectively deal damage to Reaper. You can also use a concentrate buff to increase the damage output. You can also deal critical hits or increase the chances of crit hits by using physical and Gun attacks on the boss. This includes attacks like Deathbound, Megaton, Myriad Slashes. One-shot Kill, Riot Gun, and Triple Down.

In the second phase of the battle, the boss will rely mostly on gun attack, which means you should be dodging the gun attacks. Lastly, the final phase of the fight brings out the Elemental attacks to hurt all your party members.
