it doesn't go to level four or above until the end of august

I wondered about that, I figured they would freeze it or something. I imagine the game is nice enough to just keep a backlog of all the gained trust or however they track the slink values

It speeds up quite a bit after rank 4, too. It's more in line with other links. The fact that you need to wait to August to advance is probably why it's so slow at first.

The only difference between hard and merciless is that you get less money and xp which just sounds boring to me. The damage modifiers aren't any different

I think hard should probably be enough to satisfy even you, EE. I played on Hard for most of the game but decided I'd had enough after the boss of the penultimate dungeon took me like 4 tries. It was fun though.

Why is Sojiro's s.link stuck at 2 for me?? No matter how many times I hang out with him it never changes. I gotta be missing something

Sojiro's social link is back loaded by plot events, if you just learn to make all the types of coffee you'll be able to rank up pretty quickly after a -certain point-

Confidant question

So far the two women I've gotten to rank 9 both had the romance options come up then. Do all the girls have the choice come at rank 9?

yeah afaik this is accurate, it's always rank 9 and don't worry about loving it up either way bc the game warns you that your choices may have consequences there

also can the thread title change "month" to "year" or is that premature

Sometimes I still hum some of the Persona 3 music but can't really remember any of 4. I wonder where 5 will end up in my mind.

Also thanks for confidant info... wanna just pick 1 so I get the valentine or Christmas or whatever holiday it is this time scene and don't want to get blindsided by a choice

They open after you clear a palace so far, I think they're just parallel to the story.

Technically it's not clearing the palace it's clearing the palace and the related event going public

yeah its the end of the palace timer and it probably will give you a heads-up to check out mementos. theres no downside to getting up to the door before though so you can jump right in when its unlocked

i really like how the difficulty curve in the palaces is such that if you've been doing mementos, keeping up on personas, and have a few of the time consuming items for sp you can totally clear it all in one night, but its very challenging

Yeah I managed to do the third palace in one night, it was a little hairy at times but it's totally doable

Third palace in one night was rough... I used almost every item I had. Fourth palace in one night was no problem.

Good confidants can make a huge difference.

7 I believe. Or they unlock before then but w/o the discount they're prohibitively expensive

You mean because of her wildly irresponsible research or because she'll throw down with a high schooler in a dusty attic?

Nope, but I don't think anything in there is worth blowing an extra day on coming back for.
