Hello everyone, some of you may know me as the person on the discord (section09) who has no-life'd this game 4 times already and I'm here to bring you the hottest tips this side of Aoyama-Itchōme.
Some of these may be small spoilers? I'll do my best. They are in no particular order. Prepare for a stream of consciousness.
- You can often make tools when nothing else is available, so check even if you think you can't.
- There is a TV Quiz on the downstairs TV, try it out, you get knowledge from it.
- The Temperance Confidant is a huge time saver, try and finish it quickly.
- The Fool, Strength, Moon, Judgement, Justice, Magician and Sun Confidants do not require the associated Persona
- Always, ALWAYS, exhaust your SP before leaving a dungeon or mementos. Otherwise that is time wasted.
- Press Square on the subway map to see available confidants.
- Check back at the recycling center often, sometimes they have new things to buy.
- Feed your plant! Good food can be found in Shibuya, and the best food is in Shinjuku.
- Making coffee with a Hierophant persona gives you notes with Sojiro.
- There are some books that raise your reading speed or skill acquisition speed from movies and games.
- There are consequences for dating more than 1 person.
- The Fortune Confidant has benefits that are not immediately obvious. It's another good time saver.
- Kindness, Charm, and Guts are useful earlier, while Knowledge and Proficiency, are useful further in. (Take that one with a grain of salt, I might have missed something)
- Save in a new save slot every couple of days so you have the ability to jump back to any day in a month at a moment's notice.
- NG+ carries over: Social Traits, equipment, money, skill cards, persona compendium, and most importantly, certain key items which make the game A LOT easier the second time around. Also you are able to pull any level Persona out of the compendium from the start. Have fun 1-shotting bosses!
FOR FIRST TIMERS: This game does a fantastic job of making everything you do feel worthwhile, more so than any other Persona game. So even if you feel like you are being inefficient or not using your time wisely, you can be sure that as long as you aren't doing nothing, you are progressing in a meaningful way. So just go where the wind takes you, it's a fun game and everyone should experience it in their own way.
I hope I was helpful for someone, please post whatever tips I may have missed and please be mindful of specific spoilers, I will post them on top with credit. Also if anyone has questions or anything I'm happy to help.
