Armageddon (ハルマゲドン, Harumagedon)? is a Fusion Spell in the Persona series that first debuted in Persona 2: Innocent Sin. The prerequisites in order to cast the spell always involve the usage of Lucifer/Helel and Satan.
Effect[]
In Persona 2: Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment, Armageddon instantly kills all foes, including bosses, when used. The prerequisites to cast this spell includes Lucifer's Omega Cluster and Satan's Alpha Blaster.
In Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, Philemon, along with Umr At Tawil, Cthulhu, and the Faceless God in Tatsuya's Scenario in the PSP version, will not be affected. They will counter the Fusion Spell with Armageddon R, instantly killing the party.
In Persona 3 and Persona 3 FES, Armageddon inflicts 9,999 fixed damage to all foes and costs all of the protagonist's SP to use. This can be reduced via the Spell Master skill. As no individual enemy sans Elizabeth have more than 9,999 HP in-game, this almost always kills any foe. The attack can kill any of Nyx Avatar's individual forms, forcing it to change forms (or end the battle instantly if the boss is in its Death Arcana phase). In the original version of Persona 3, it requires Lucifer and Satan in the protagonist's slots for the spell to be used, but starting from FES, Helel replaces Lucifer for the prerequisite of casting the spell.
In Persona 3 Portable, Armageddon can only be used via an item bought at Shinshoudo Antiques.
In Persona 3 Reload, Armageddon is a Theurgy skill that works the same as its prior two Fusion Spell variants, dealing 9999 damage to all enemies. However, it now sets the user's health and MP to a fixed 1, something which cannot be mitigated by using Spell Master. Also, just like any other attack, it cannot kill bosses with HP threshold-based events before all of such events are triggered. The user's SP is set to 1 even if it were previously 0. This spell can be used once the protagonist registers Helel and Satan in the Persona Compendium.
