How to defeat YHVH
How to defeat YHVH on War difficulty
To defeat yhvh in war difficulty you need specific skills on your demons. and your demons HP must be 750hp+ and a decent amount of mp 350mp ++ is good, every time he smirks use magaon on him asap and when he luster candy or use a overpowered buff on himself that smirks him also, immediately dekaja him and of-course magaon, along the way use fang breaker to slowly take away his damage. i recommend that your main character to be the main attacker while other demons focus on fang breaking, debuff, heal and buffing your party. when he turns on his second form he will lower all your stats so immediately use dekunda to remove the status on your whole party or else your dead. i also recommend to train 7 good demons with the skills needed so you can switch when he turns to second form. you and your demon should also have resist physical attack, and 1 demon with null/repel/drain physical. read below more on the skill builds and list of skills needed.
Careful use of Flynn's party is very much needed simply because flynn is the one who will lower yhvh resist and defense so make sure they dont die out asap. conserve mp and your bead chain for the second form of yhvh. as soon as yhvh turn to second form immediately use luster candy 2 times on flynn's party and remove yhvh smirk asap and use dekunda too if he is smirked and buffed.
below is the demon skill build and recommended demons that you need to beat him.
Here is the list of skills needed to defeat yhvh
Fang breaker = lowers yhvh attack while damaging him
Invitation = resurrects and summons dead demons, act as a safety measure
Life Surge = gives more hp
Healing knowhow = gives the ability or demons to use items in battle. this helps a lot
Physical resist/null/drain = reduce yhvh normal damage
Mediarama = good heals with heal pleroma, low mp usage than mediarahan
High heal pleroma = increases heals
heal pleroma = increases heals
Energy drain = Drain enemy hp and mp, helps sustain mp
Imposing stance = removes 1 turn on enemy, use this only when yhvh is in second form
Luster Candy = increases all stats, cast 2 times . everytime yhvh cancels it
Magaon = removes smirk, ALWAYS REMOVE YHVH SMIRK or else your dead
Dekunda = removes status debuffs on allies, use when yhvh debuff you on his second form or ur dead

How to defeat Satan
just attack with your strongest attack
get demons with resist fire
and 1 null fire for your support demon with invitation skill[resurect and swap skill]
i recommend your main character having Invitation skill too because your demons will most like die here just use invitation and keep spaming fang breaker[attack down skill] and your main damaging skill
resist fire only for ur main and 2 other demons, the reason for this is for the whole party to share the fire attacks therefor lesser chance of a party member dying
demons with null fire will not get attacked therefor your other teamates that doesnt have will get spammed all the time increasing the chance of death
AVOID making him smirk by having your demons weakness exploited
if he smirks and land a almighty attack on you its the end
Skills needed
Fang breaker or other attack decreasing skills as long as you can maintain it
mediarahan - full heal
Imposing stance - backup skill if in a pinch
Invitation - to summon back fallen demons as soon as possible
Samarecarm - to resurect demons or your main character
Optional skills
Energy drain - to help your demon maintain their skills
Recommended partner
Navarre - mainly because of support skills
Recommendation
use high level demons with high hp[900+ preferred] with resist fire
make sure his attack is lowered by spam fang breaker or your preferred skill for lowering attack
make sure most of your demons have samarecarm
do not use tetrakarm or makarakarn because satan will just use almighty attacks if you do that

how to defeat vishnu-flynn
dont bother exploiting weakness just attack with your strongest attack
get demons with resist gun and null/light/dark, resist light and dark would do too drain/repel better
those demons must have no weakness against Zio or force attacks
resist gun only not null/repel/drain, the reason for this is for the whole party to share the gun attacks therefor lesser chance of a party member dying
AVOID making him smirk by having your demons weakness exploited
if he smirks and land a almighty attack on you its the end
Skills needed
Fang breaker or other attack decreasing skills as long as you can maintain it
mediarahan - full heal
Imposing stance - should be used at the 1st 2 turns because vishnu-flynn can over power you at 1st
Optional skills
Energy drain - to help your demon maintain their skills
Recommended partner
Navarre - mainly because of support skills

use high level demons with high hp[900+ preferred] with resist gun and null light/dark

What do stats do in this game?
What do stats do in this game?
Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse uses the character stats in the following way:
Strength – Physical attack power
Dexterity – Gun-based attack power
Magic – Magical attack power
Agility – Speed in battle and chance to surprise enemy
Luck – Critical hit rate
Unlike in previous Shin Megami Tensei games, there isn’t really much in the way of defensive stats or magical resistance. Your primary focus will be increasing your ability to kill your enemy as quickly as possible without giving them as many turns. This is done through increasing your firepower, your speed, and abusing the smirk system as much as possible.
As your Agility remains high, you’ll also have the option to Flee any undesired encounter, saving you some headaches and wasted time.
