Deciding to tackle the Monad Doors can be tough, and in this Chaos Cyclops Boos guide, I will go over what you should expect to beat it.
I will go over what skills you will face, which party to remember to pick for the fight, and what to do against the boss’s weaknesses and resistances.
Let’s dive more in-depth into everything.
Finding the Chaos Cyclops in Persona 3 Reload
In the final part of the Yabbashah block of Tartarus, you will find the Monad Door that the Chaos Cyclops resides in waiting for a challenger.
Unlike Monad Passages, the Chaos Cyclops is an enemy players may find behind Monad Doors between floors 92 to 116 of the Yabbashah Block.
However, some players have also reported that instead of the Chaos Cyclops, they found an enemy called the Nemean Beast or the Eternal Eagle.

Chaos Cyclops Weaknesses in Persona 3 Reload
Let’s first break down what the enemy has before going over how to deal with it.
When it comes to weakness, unfortunately, it doesn’t have any to exploit for an all-out attack. It also nullifies Pierce and Light attacks, so make sure to avoid wasting turns using those types of attacks.
With unreachable defenses to get the enemy downed for an all-out attack, which of its attacks should you be wary of?
Though not entirely confirmed up to this point, it has been noted that he has all the elemental AOE magic at his disposal, as well as a buffing skill he uses the moment he gets an extra turn by downing a party member.

Dealing with the Chaos Cyclops in Persona 3 Reload
Well, knowing what enemies can do is have the battle, especially one as strong as that.
Before dealing with it, you will want to have two things prepared.
The first thing you will want to have prepared are maxed-out Theorgy gauges for the party member you bring to the fight. These strong attacks can deal massive amounts of damage or even provide healing and buffs to the team.
They are a great asset, so if you can manage both your HP and SP enough to have them maxed, do it.
Secondly, knowing what we know, you will want to avoid bringing Yukari, Mitsuru, and Aigis to the fight. With the attacks that are more commonly known being Agi, and Zio magic they will be downed constantly, and generate more turns for the enemy.
Your safest bet will be to bring Junpei, Akihiko, and a fourth member of your choice depending on when you decide to fight it.
Now, that you are ready to fight him, here are some battle tips that can help.
- Skills that increase your Critical Rate (Rebellion/Crit Rate Amp/Crit Rate Boost) can help down the enemy, and allow the party to all-out attack.
- Make use of offensive support skills (Charge/Concentrate) to maximize the damage you do.
- Keep your party buffed with Marakukaja, Masukukaja, and Matarukaja.
- Keep the enemy debuffed focusing on lowering its Attack with Tarunda.
- Make use of status ailments by using Bewilder, Marin Carin, or Pulinpa.
- Use stocked-up healing items to avoid overusing SP.
No enemy is unbeatable, and by making sure you are prepared enough, you will be able to overcome this challenge and claim the rewards.
Final Thoughts
Tough enemies are part of every RPG, and there is no shame in leaving them be to fight them later on when you are better prepared. As long as you enjoy the game, that is all that matters.
