Tarunda (タルンダ*)? is a Prayer skill.
Effect[edit | edit source]
In the Shin Megami Tensei franchise, Tarunda typically decreases the physical attack power of all enemies by one stage and lasts until either the battle ends, an enemy is killed, or removed by a debuff removal skill such as Dekunda.
In Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne and in both Shin Megami Tensei IV and Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse, Tarunda lowers both physical attack power and magic power due to the debuff skill Makanda not existing in those games.
In the Persona series, Tarunda decreases 1 target's attack power.
In Persona 4 and Persona 5, Tarunda lasts for 3 turns.
