You'll have access to any confidants' rank 10 abilities that gave you a going away item, but you'll be starting from rank 1.

It's not their rank 10 abilities, it's just one or more of their abilities. Depends on the Confidant. Futaba's rank 7 carries, for example.

You need to raise them up again but with extra benefits:
- You will raise them a lot faster this time around, especially if you have same Personas as their Arcanas,
- You can use their top-tier Confidant skills even if you only have them at 1: for example, if you have completed Kawakami's or Chihaya confidant and received their confidant items in playthrough 1, in NG+ you can immediately make use of the Massage service or Affinity Reading services as soon as you unlock their confidant, making it much, much, much easier to manage time.

I'm so addicted to the gameplay loop of finding safe rooms and then continuing my progress, then backtracking to safe rooms to not get ahead of myself etc.
It is testamant to the far more interesting dungeon design. In previous Personas I enjoyed the real World gameplay more, wondering what was going to happen next in the story etc. The dungeons were boring and felt grindy.
In this I am spending much much more time in the dungeons and loving the battle system.
The difficulty has dropped though. Towards end of first dungeon I was hitting a wall and did some grinding to beat the boss. 2nd dungeon has been a breeze so far, I'm already halfway through and have only been exploring it for 2 days.

Well I dunno about you, but absolutely none of that excuses the way she treats and talks to Makoto. Being a hard worker doesn't validate someone in taking his/her frustrations out on other people. It seems like she has all other aspects of being an adult figured out other than that.
Buuuut if everything else in this game is any indication, then I assume it is only a matter of time before Atlus work their magic and I end up loving her! Haha, watching characters develop is what makes this game so special to me

Finally beaten the game. Valentine day was fucking lol. I do want the chocolates line cement Joker as the most savage, remorseless GOAT xD.
Great game really. Very climatic battle at the end.

Started the 5th Palace yesterday after 75 hours. How many hours do I still have to play until the ending?

Some of the social links sure do escalate. From "I wanna be a model! You can help me, right?" to "I love you!" in 1 rank.

Still quite some time man
I've started playing P4 for the first time, just got into the tv stuff and met shadow Yosuke. I do miss a lot of music from Persona 5, seems there are plenty of scenes that don't have any music

I'm in mid-June, and I can't seem to advance Sojiro from Rank 3 to Rank 4.
I saw some people say you need to have made coffee, but I've done that a few times (though I don't recall if it was at Rank 2 or not).
He also now seems to go home every time I make coffee, instead of going out for cigarettes and then returning and giving me some notes.
It seems quite a few people seem to have issues with increasing his rank. Some people seem to be stuck on 4.
Is there a clear guide on what his requirements are?

Quick little question: how many dungeons are in this game? I just finished up the first, and usually knowing a number makes it a bit easier for me to keep interest in longer games like this. I would look it up, but I'm terrified of running into spoilers, as I've managed to avoid any and all of them thus far and have been playing the game pretty blindly. If any are optional, I'd like them to be included in the total, because I always try to do as many as possible.
His earlier ranks were really slow for me too. You should be able to progress from rank 3 to 4 if you spend enough time with him.
Being stuck on rank 4 is normal, it's story-related.

I'm only 20 hours into the game but, whenever you do Mementos quests it'a a pain to go back to the entrance, you have to go back level by level, I might be doing something wrong though, am I?

You can press R1 to climb back up from a safe room or at the last floor of an area.
Press R1 at a REST area or END area and see something magical.
You can fast travel to the entrance from any rest area. In addition, you usually get the option to immediately return to the entrance, after you take down a target. Or you can use a Goho-M.
Are the safe rooms of Mementos the train platforms? I've tried pressing R1 there but with no results, I'm only on the second palace though so it isn't much of a annoyance yet.

Cleared the second palace. Loving the game. Wish I had more time.

No they are the rest platforms with a little place to rest and save in the middle.

Is there a place I can buy revival beads?
The doctor sells an item that, while having a different name, has the same effect. Revivadrim it was? I'm not 100% sure. Just read the descriptions at Tae's clinic.

In the home stretch now, I think I only have an hour or so left. This game is flawed (Dungeons too long imo) but will probably end up being my favourite game of all time.
