Nuwa in Shin Megami Tensei 5: How to fuse, weakness, base stats, and more

In “New Game”, Shin Megami Tensei 5 players will only encounter Lady Nuwa as a mandatory boss, who gatekeeps and acts as a skill-checker to see if players are able to pick up the various mechanics of the game.

However, it’s only during NG+1 (New Game+) that they will be able to fuse her and make her a part of the party.

Lady Nuwa is a special fusion and will require three specific demons to make when players are in the World of Shadows. Additionally, Shin Megami Tensei 5 offers a more powerful version of her as well, called Lady Nuwa A (snake form), where she receives additional stats and skills as well as the ultimate attack Sacrifice of Clay +7.

Shin Megami Tensei 5 players can learn about the ways to fuse Lady Nuwa and some of the base stats and abilities that she comes with below.

As mentioned previously, Nuwa can only be acquired during New Game+ of Shin Megami Tensei 5, and she is a part of the special fusion process in the game.

To make a base level 80 Nuwa, players will be required to fuse Huang Long, Arahabaki, and Quetzalcoatl.

However, for Lady Nuwa A, which is the snake form, players will need four demons for the fusion instead of three. For the more powerful level 89 form, the following demons will need to be fused together: Nuwa, Hydra, Ananta, and Yamata-no-Orochi. The base Nuwa will be required to fuse the snake version in Shin Megami Tensei 5.
