To find the Bloody Maria boss paired with Executioner's Crown, you'll want to visit the Yabbashah Block of Tartarus. Bloody Maria is a Floor Boss specifically found on Floor 105.

Since Bloody Maria is found alongside Executioner's Crown, you will need to be aware of both of their weaknesses and exploit these to knock them down and perform an All-Out Attack. You can also perform Critical Hits on the enemy, especially using one of your team member's Theurgy attack.

Bloody Maria Weakness in Persona 3 Reload

After starting the battle with Bloody Maria, these are the weaknesses and resistances you'll want to take note of:

Since Bloody Maria will only be weak to Pierce damage, you'll want to ensure you bring along a party member that focuses on Physical attacks. A great character to bring for this purpose is either Junpei or Aigis. If you don't have access to these two, Yukari also uses Pierce damage for her regular attack, especially if you have her equipped with a powerful weapon.

Since you'll also be up against the Exceutioner's Crown, this enemy is weak to Fire so you'll want to utilize a Persona with Fire abilities, or use Junpei's Fire attacks. If you are able to knock down both Bloody Maria and Executioner's Crown with their weaknesses, you'll be able to perform an All-Out Attack and deal a significant amount of damage. Otherwise, you can try to increase your team's Critical Hit Rate, which will also cause the enemy to be knocked down.

Keep in mind that Bloody Maria can also cause your team to gain the Fear ailment, so make sure to bring along some consumables to cure this, or utilize Yukari's ability, Me Patra, to cure ailments for all allies. Yukari can also be useful to heal your team when they need it. Outside of this, the battle should be relatively easy so long as you continue to knock down both enemies for an All-Out Attack.
