Shadow Kaneshiro (Bael) Boss Battle

It is recommended to have Morgana, Anne, and Makoto for the fight as their healing skills will give you better chances of surviving. Do not bring Yusuke as Piggytron can trigger One More when he is in battle.

When the fight begins, cast Tarunda on Piggytron to reduce its damage potential with March of Piggy. You can also try to cast Marakukaja and guard just before he uses the attack (when Piggytron “spins faster”) to prevent your party from being wiped out. When Piggytron uses Fear Gas, use Energy Shower to remove its effect.

After taking down Piggytron, Kaneshiro will eject from his robot and summon two strong minions. It is highly recommended to inflict sleep on both of them. This is particularly important for the large defender minion as it will shield Kaneshiro from attacks. Try to focus on dealing damage to Kaneshiro as defeating him will automatically end the fight.

    • Yeah I’m almost tempted to write my own guide after this playthrough and post it on game faqs. Cause these guides seem to be getting progressively worse as the story continues
      What’s worse is other websites don’t seem any better

  1. so I noticed in the P5R guide for the month of June, it said to 2nd infiltrate on 6/21 but on this page 2nd infiltrate is on 6/30. Is this a typo?
