Quest completion exp scales with the Protagonist's level.
Unless it's supposed to give you that much for figuring out the strategy.

I feel bad knowing I will never complete the compendium because of that :S
It's too bad you can't cheat with estoma like you could in Strange Journey.

Not yet locked? Weird but I'll take your word for it. I mean, I was so sure
Can you tell me if I'm at least halfway done the game?

You are in the back part of the game.
This is my first 3ds game and I really like the 3d but I get awful ghosting on Amy setting other than bare minimum. It is very frustrating. I try moving it but can't ever get it too go away for good. Hope all 3ds games a aren't this bad. I do have an xl so that isn't helping.
Okay, thanks.
Gotta get dat Luster Candy... I've had the same dang moveset for 15 levels now.

So am I, just traverse the underground floors 7-9. You'll figure it out eventually. This is under Midtown right? Reverse Hills?
Use blight, swap in Zhen and use pandemic bomb, then just pass the rest of your actions.

Yessir.
I was talking about the mandatory Training quests, not the VR battles.
Oh, sorry! I forgot that's what those were called at the beginning.

Ha, ha. You must be doing NG+. I believe the experience is scaled, ain't it?

Could be both the game's fault and you not really being used to it. I could never find the right position to not see any ghosting when I first got the 3DS without shuffling around a billion times. Now, I pretty much get in the right position instinctively. Still, even when you've found the sweet spot, some games have ghosting regardless.

Late-game Neutral spoilers:
I just entered the Purgatorium... Holy damn this is awesome. :O I was wondering when I was going to get to murder law and chaos!

What level do you start getting access to Debilitate and Luster Candy?
Alice gets debilitate at 51 I think.
That line made me groan. But it wasn't enough to quell my excitement.
Like other Atlus USA release there's some small mistakes here and there in the game. So far I've found that the description of Acid Breath is different in the menu and in the battle text. In your menu it says that it decreases defense/hit/evade rate and in battle when you use it in battle it says that attack/hit/evade rate has been lowered.
In a sidequest to unlock the late game demon
there is an input password screen that asks for name while the password is a number.
During the final boss of the neutral path, Some of the names are missing in the text boxes during the dialogue sequence.

I loved the way he presented his demon that time. The guy was a funny character. I'll put this in spoiler tag but I'm not sure if you can find all terminals in law/chaos path so I'll write NEUTRAL PATH ENDGAME SPOILER
When he explained he watched anime and became different characters because of that he reminded me of Virignia's rival in Wild Arms 3 with her mangas.
Ah, had not noticed that. That's fairly interesting. The team that made the game was too busy or is it related to the Index Holdings fallout?

Could help explain their quick localization turn around time as of late.
Second fusion error. ALWAYS AT THE WORST TIMES.

How do I fuse an Alice?

The first boss is fucking destroying me, and I don't know what to do. My MC has fire-resistant armor, and I have a persona with Agi. Everyone is at least level 7, but my Angel is 5. Lunge is fucking everyone up.
What am I doing wrong?
edit: not the first boss, technically. i have to fight him in order to rescue someone very early in the game.

Im pretty sure Nich mentioned this on the forums once. It was in some thread about localization costs and he wondered why ___ company didnt try outsourcing the programming like they do cuz it was easier and cheaper. He mentioned the company was Korean too
Special fusion with Poltergeist, Nadja, High Pixie, and Hairy Jack. I can't remember if there were any other unlocking requirements though.

Nope, are you level 47? You can't fuse that one till then.
When in doubt, check the smt4tool website!

Naga? He's pretty easy... yes, bring someone with Agi. The more the merrier. Also, in case you don't know, the first strike on boss battles are not set in stone: sometimes you get it, sometimes the boss gets it, so save and reload if the enemy gets the first strike (since it can REALLY make a difference)
Also, after you win the battle, prepare folks with Zio, Agi, and Ice resistant demons/skills. Well, the last one isn't really necessary--just don't bring anyone weak with ice.

I don't know what demon to fuse other than Pele that can use Agi.
edit: I just beat it, and I'm shocked by how easy it was. Having one of their Lunges miss made all the difference!
Recruit Melchom on that floor, he comes with Agi. And fuse an Onmoraki.

Okay the plot just took a turn to bonkersville.
For those of you who have finished or are near the end, can you answer the following?
(spoilers)

Do we get an explanation for what happened to Tokyo? Why the demons appeared? What and how Mikado came to exist? Whats happened to the world beyond Tokyo? No spoilers just a vague yes or no.

Get Pele. It's a good one.

There's also a Fallen that comes with an Agi that you can recruit on that very floor. Lvl 5 dude, I forget the name, he looks like an old man.
Edit: Well, you won it!
Time to prepare for the next stuff
Also, don't throw away Posumudi. It's mightily useful. Have at least someone know it in your roster.
I am getting completely destroyed by (late game but before final path split)
The hell do I do?
King Kenji.
He is weak against Agi and Zan. Agi seems to do little damage to him, but gives me a press turn and Zan seems to do decent damage but doesn't give me a press turn. I can get up to the end of the fight but then he starts busting out ancient curse and mamudoon and my shit gets wrecked every time.

haha, wish I'd known that. Really enjoying my first few hours, and love the manual.

Matrakarn and Tetrakarn are pretty cool.
Items that negate 1 attack of light/dark insta-kill moves are also great.

Okay question. Where do you find Pyro Jack in the wild? I know I was fighting groups of him and Jack Frost a while ago but I can't seem to freaking find them again now that I want one. SIGH!
Kinda? Haven't finished myself, but I think I saw hints about Mikado's founding from a quarter I did not at all expect, and I think how the demons broke out was suggested during the alignment split.

So what does the Skill Mutate app do? Randomly mutating your demons' skill during level up?
Now that I have gotten all levels of MP regenerating app I want to make that my next target (since it is expensive I thought it should be something really useful, hahaha)
Also a question, maybe there are those of you who knows this: does the stat from incenses carry on during the New Game+ for the MC? I figure that if they don't then it's better to use the incenses on demons since you can then record those upgrade in the compendium, right?
Shinjuku southern gate. Many are there, usually paired up with Jack Frosts.

I THINK the Shinjuku Region.
