During Subquests, you will sometimes have to fight a boss while doing the quest. This page will pertain to the fight against Belphegor.
Where to find Belphegor¶
Belphegor is a boss you will face during the quest, The Tyrant of Tennozu. He is located on top of the mountain, with the spiraling path, in the Tennozu area of Shinagawa. The easiest way to get to him is via the Tennozu Isle Leyline. Go down the hill and as you’re crossing the bridge, jump off of it to get on the highway below you. Head south, past the Magatsuhi orbs, and stop at the Andras you find just ahead. Look at the fence and you should notice some orbs behind it, so jump off of the car and over the fence, putting you on the path that leads to the top of the mountain with Belphegor.

Recommended Party¶
Belphegor can be a challenging foe here, as he has both decent Magic and Strength stats, although he doesn’t really have any Physical-based skills. He knows both Ice and Dark skills, so you definitely don’t want weaknesses to either one of those. To make things a little more annoying, Belphegor has a good number of resistances, with him blocking both Ice and Dark, while resisting Physical and Electric. Thankfully he has weaknesses to both Fire and Light, while being neutral to Force, so those will be your three primary means of attacking here. If you do have something like a Naga Essence, then you can learn Puncture Punch from it, which pierces through his Physical resistance.
You will see pretty much any skills in Belphegor’s arsenal in normal play here, as he might be one of the first that doesn’t designate a specific one for his Magatsuhi attack. That can be a huge problem, as something like a normal Attack during that means he will score criticals and extend his turn to potentially fell you or one of your demons. Outside of the Magatsuhi thing, you can see Bufula (single-target Ice) and Mamudoon (party-wide Dark). With that second one, you don’t want anyone weak to Dark, or else they might be instakilled from it. Thoth is listed as a potential demon to bring, but he is weak to Dark normally. If you have a Yakshini Essence, then you can put Resist Dark on Thoth to negate that weakness, making him a huge help during the battle.
Other things that Belphegor might do are Concentrate, which makes his next Magic-based attack stronger, Matarunda (debuffs your attack) and Marin Karin. The good thing about Marin Karin is that it only has the chance to inflict Charm on a single ally, so you can easily cure it with Patra or an Amrita Soda. If you can’t get Resist Dark on Thoth, then you can substitute either Hariti or Baphomet for him, but you will need to put Agilao/Hamaon on them, depending on their skill potential. Parvati is mostly there for healing, although you could add something like Hamaon for her to deal damage when she isn’t needed to heal. Succubus nulls Ice, so she can be great for additional damage with Agilao.
