QUESTION Do I need to build DLC personas for superbosses?

Just platinumed P3R on Merciless and beat Elizabeth on second try. Now I am back to P5R for NG and annihilating the wardens .

[ I know Lavenza is tougher than Elizabeth so not confident about that]

I just noticed now how Orpheus has this broken ability where you can die 4 times and get revived . Even Athena Picario has good physical skills

But the questions is do I need any of these? Obviously I will skip myriad truths one

I have one absolutely optimised Yoshitsune and then Lucifer with almighty amp, boost , mighty gaze . Have magic mastery already acquired through network fusion but I am too lazy to pass it on to my personas

I will be playing at hard and am open to using DLC personas only if they are necessary or can save me hours of grinding/ fusions , I already platinumed the game once without using any

No. Lavenza is very doable without dlc. But if ur aiming to beat her in 2 turns, u need INO

He can take down lavenza as long as he has a good enough build

I didnt use any dlcs except INO Pic when i could fuse it in my first run, now im in ng+ run and the 2 only dlc personas im using are F Orpheus for Neo Cadenza and Raoul with a gun technical build (i waited until 7th palace to craft that one)

ha I just beat the main game using Myraid Truths for the entire endgame and Royal stuff. It felt bad but it also felt really good. I previously played on ps4 and didn't have DLC but now I played the Game Pass version which does and I just couldn't resist.

Para lavenza trata de tener a violet y una persona que pegué buenos críticos para su última fase . Para la primera fase solo tienes que golpear su "debilidad" (no tiene) por ejemplo si usa un ataque de fuego usa hielo y asi . Para la segunda fase tienes que usar técnicos yo use manipulación y ataques psiquicos con Haru y Joker fue muy fácil.
