DEFINITELY fuse Rangda. She repels physical innately, but then she also learns the passive skill Repel Physical which you can pass on to other Personas in fusion. This is kind of important to know!

Watching you guys waste so much SP on casting spells on things that you could just rush makes me sad. :(

@Mistral: Pretty sure getting Hamaed has made them more wary of just rushing everything.  Well, it's not like fox isn't getting much more affordable for them now anyhow.

You guys can see a list of all your offensive and support abilities on the Skills menu, to see what you might be missing.

Isn't Pazuzu the "official" name of the demon from The Exorcist, as revealed in one of the terrible sequels...maybe the one with Stellan Skarsgard...

 Love the Endurance Run !!!   FYI even though this is still far away you should increase knowledge and understanding to start the Naoto social link. 

If you want to complete Dojima or Nanoko S. links you should do it as soon as you can for they will be cut off in a few months ahead.  

Also Rise is definetly a social link you want to complete. Out of the team I suggest finishing Kanji last for I found him the easiest in the end time.

 In the end you get some extra scenes from the people that have rank 10 social links that are fun to read and watch. If you do the true ending that is.

Haha, yeah.  And if you talk to Yukiko, she gets nervous and Chie wonders why she's being weird.

I wonder if there are similar dialogs with Naoto.  It'd be awesome of all the girls just turn on you at some point. :)

THIS

Instead of guessing as to whether you have your elemental and widespread elemental skills, go into the Skills menu and scroll down (don't just stop at Mediarama, keep going!), it compiles every skill that every Persona in your inventory has and will let you know if you're missing an element or element-all.

Hah, that's awesome.  How do you get specific pairings to happen?  I could only get Chie and Yukiko on the same floor together.
I don't suppose there's anyway to get Rise in on the awkwardness?

I have a suggestion for you guys.   Stop listening to people in the comments and play the game the way you want to play it.   That's what the people who aren't stupid are here to see.

QFT!!!! As a long time JRPG fan and a Persona player it is interesting to watch these guys who have little to no experience in the genre take it on, plus the commentary is incredibly entertaining. The ER saved me from having to do a second playthough. Keep up the good work guys and ignore the pricks!!

Just a little something I found by googling Pazuzu I thought you might find interesting: "In Assyrian and Babylonian mythology, Pazuzu was the king of the demons of the wind, and son of the god Hanbi. He also represented the southwestern wind, the bearer of storms and drought."

The game has descriptions for all the personas. Nearly every persona has its roots in some sort of mythology. But Vinny and Jeff never look at that stuff.

Actually guys, Pazuzu is a gargoyle who Professor Farnsworth owned in Futurama :) Pazuzu saved him from drowning in the Fountain of Aging and in reward, Farnsworth granted him his freedom. Pazuzu now lives in Paris and has a son.

About personas, now that you guys have so many, so many slots to put them in, more ways of fusing and a ton more spells it's rapidly turning away tactical play (not your fault at all, lot's to keep track of) and into "we need this, do we have something that has that?". When you had fewer you were thinking more about fusing rather than just turning the game into Pokemon; the balance must be hard to get right when making a game.

It always reminded me of the crappy old SNES game Brandish in which, to save on having to make the same sprite three times for the main character, they just had the entire world rotate when you hit a direction (so the camera, which is isometric, is always pointed at the protagonist's back). It was UUUUNPLAYABLE.
