So, I finished the game a few days ago after 80 awesome hours, definitely worth the purchase. I managed to get the true ending and (obvious true ending spoilers) goddamn I knew that gas station attendant was fishy, especially after watching the 1st P4 anime episode where they insist a bit too much on the handshake. Also he/she was seen in the city only during rain days, and we all know rain means weird. Around midgame I had my suspicions on Namatame who was acting super-weird when you could talk to him, and the gas station attendant. I had a bit of doubt also on Adachi as a semi-joke and usual mystery convention but didn't think of him much, though. Regarding the bad ending, I got one where (december spoiler) you throw Namatame in the TV and it wraps up like this, but upon hovering spoiler bars in this thread, it seems there's another one with Adachi involved, how do you get it ? Does it need you to have Adachi's S.Link at 6 ? Great game overall, I'm really looking for Persona 5 now.

Really Pants posted:drat, man, you didn't even have any mid-tier heals at Shadow Teddie? You were definitely underleveled. My levels were around 30-32. The Ganga was Lv33. Yosuke was underleveled at 26, swapping him out for Lv31 Kanji definitely helped. I've been trying to level Yosuke more now. I also got him his follow-up attack.

It's pretty funny how long it took to beat some of the bosses on my first playthrough, the void quest boss comes to mind, compared to how easy it is to wreck any boss only using physical skills and buffs/debuffs

I started NG++ so I could erase my social links and fuse personas faster. I finally did it! Ara Mitama became Legion. Whatever, don't care, platinum achieved! Bring on Persona 5!

So, yeah, I just spent about 3 hours grinding levels in order to get to level 93 to fuse Lucifer only to find out you don't keep your personas or level in NG+. Seeing as I'm at Jan 27 I'll make use of it for...not much longer...considering the time it took to get it... Also, question regarding Aeon SL, at what point do I get access to Marie's dungeon? I maxed her link out and the woman in blue has been "searching" for like a month...do I need to do something specific at this point?

You keep your compendium and money (and lose the level restriction) so you still can party down in NG+ with your OP personas.

You can't fuse personas above your level in NG+ but you can summon and use them. So when you're ready to kill Izanami go sell all your poo poo you don't need.

As long as you've created the character and it's in your compedium you own it forever and can use it as long as you can afford it. I recall grinding enough to buy 1 of each of the Persona's I wanted along with armor from the Blacksmith before ending the game to start NG+

Now that I completed my fusion goal, I guess I don't need to buy as much stuff. I also want to fight The Reaper again, but the last time I triggered the rattling chains, I ran out of chests and went to the next floor only for the sound to stop...

I'm nearing the end of the Persona 4 anime and I hope to god that Persona 5 gets an anime too. That or if Persona 5 gets much more detailed scenes of expression. I also found Teddie to be only somewhat likeable in Persona 4, but in Persona 4 Animation and Persona 4 Arena I just can't get enough of him.

P3 anime is next, well, the movies at least. First one is releasing this fall. P5 would have to come out first, then most likely we would see an anime release a year or so later (could be more). Oh, and I completely agree that Yu's deadpan acting in P4 animation is pretty much perfect.

Beat the game for all intents and purposes...thoughts: So Marie's dungeon was kinda bullshit. Not hard, at least not in a "this requires skill" sort of way, just bullshit. I had Lucifer with Victory Cry, so MC always had full HP and half SP but everyone else was screwed. Oh! an item that restores a WHOPPING 12SP per equipees turn! When I kill most things in one turn! With abilities that cost 12-38SP! (except MC who has Spell Master ) Its absurd. It also took all my money when it took my items, and I never got it back. So I guess I'll be grinding money in the True Ending Dungeon to take into NG+? That being said, I liked the actual plot stuff in there. Marie is an odd character though. I never played P4 on PS2, but I can pretty easily see spots where the Devs added her after the fact, but I can also see spots where it really seems like they intended her to be the headcanon romantic partner. Speaking of romances... So I knew that Valentine's Day would be interesting because in my speeding through dialog I ended up romancing both Marie and Yukiko. I knew that VD could involve only one, and I had intended to do Marie my first run, so I declined Yukikio. That was an interesting conversation. But then Marie didn't show up, at first. MC spent Valentines moping in the Junes food court with Yosuke and Kanjii. Marie was hanging out outside MC's house and they had their event, but based on the Junes scene, could I have hung out with Yukiko too? Eh, w/e. All in all, a whole lot of fun. I look forward to turning on NG+, cranking up the XP and Cash (you can do that in NG+ right?) and blasting through everything so I can max all the links. Do S.Links carry over to NG+?

Annath posted:Speaking of romances... Yes, Marie is seperate from the other girls for holiday dates. She tends to just catch you after you and your other date go your seperate ways. Links do not carry over, but the key items they give you do, so you can fuse their ultimate Persona without repeating the Link.

Strange Quark posted:No, you should get all of your stuff and money back after the dungeon. Or even when you leave it via the TV. I got my items/equipment back for sure, but I definitely had 0¥ coming out of the dungeon. Hell, I've only got like 1200¥ now. It's not a huge deal, I'll grind cash in this dungeon before I wrap up, at least enough to summon some absurd Persona at the beginning of the game. I'm kinda considering focusing on Izanagi for NG+ though. Shame you can't create Izanagi no Okami until the end of NG+ or whatever.

I think it's actually easier in very hard to just use one persona all game; the stat-up cards and skill cards take care of it being somewhat less powerful, and the level matters a whole lot, and at the point I'm at now, a different persona would be about 8 levels lower. I still can't entirely figure out if the stats on Personas lie, though. I know some people suggested they did, and they seemed to on my normal playthrough, but MC is definitely doing a lot more damage than anyone else with his physical attacks.

Just something I wanted to check - when you use Traesto to escape a dungeon, you can go straight back to the floor you escaped from, right? Just like with a Goho-M? I'm at the top of Void Quest, so I want to be sure.

# ? Apr 3, 2013 05:56 |

It should be fine. I believe you'll always go to the highest floor you've been to, unless you restart from the first floor. But it should be the same as Goho-ms in any case.

Excellent, thanks. I need to leave so I can fuse some Personas and buy better gear to fight Shadow Mitsuo. He wiped me last time before I could even remove half his heath (and I was nearly out of SP by that point) but now Yu's gone from Lv40 to Lv48, with Chie, Yukiko and Teddie along for the ride. I really need to go grind with Yosuke after this is done, he's only Lv29. BreakAtmo fucked around with this message at 07:58 on Apr 3, 2013 |

Those descriptions don't actually tell you a whole lot, really. They mostly let you know what "tier" the skill is. According to the Megatenwiki (assuming it's right), here are the two skills' respective stats: Skewer: 140 power, 85 accuracy, 20 crit, 5% HP Sucker Punch: 150 power, 90 accuracy, 25 crit, 8% HP.
