Persona 5 |OT2| Someone must have been helping you go to bed early. Talk!

I just got star to 9. When I'm in mementos now when I hit some monsters it instantly tells me I can't hold anymore masks. Is it because of this? What gives?

I know that already. But there is an issue with that, please read my post again to see what it is. (I meant instakilling btw in that post not installing)

They're on the ground too, in the little caged diamonds. No fighting required.

But if you do want to fight, if you attack them from the front instead of the back, you won't insta-kill. The X action will change from "Ambush" to "Attack"

Basically Ryuji has an ability when you level up his Confidant to trigger an Insta win sometimes when you ambush an enemy.
You also automatically get the Persona but since you have a full deck it auto dismisses it.

Long story short, if you don't want that to happen don't ambush enemies.

Oooh, I forgot I just got that, thanks.

They are literally in the squares on the floor. You don't need to fight to get them. Edit: beaten
Caged diamond? squares? You mean treasure chests?
 
So I'm pretty sure you can kill
Futaba's mom in the palace before phase 2. I used a damage reflection item on one ally before the dive attack and it took off 3,000 hp and brought her to 50% even though regular attacks were doing almost nothing. If you did it on multiple allies you could probably zero her hp

Decarabia drop liquid mercury as well.
They are too low leveled as well. But apparently I can find them without fighting.
Do you personally have to make the tools to get the trophy? I had
Kawakami
make everything but I didn't see the trophy pop. Also, that did suck as you had to fight them head on since you're way past their level at that point.
Yes you personally have to make them.

whats talking? I killed all of them for that sweet sweet xp
 
I'm near the conclusion of the 3rd palace's arc, having already stole the treasure, and I'd rather just keep slinking, fishing, batting, etc than go to dungeons and change random people's hearts.

I don't know, at that point it was definitely faster and more SP conserving to figure out who to fight rather than fighting all of them.

After the Anubis of the previous dungeon I don't want to risk losing progress unnecessarily.
 
Finally finished it. The ending didn't hit me as hard as P3 or P4. Regardless, it was an amazing experience.

End game spoilers
I liked that Mishima finally got a moment to shine towards the end.

Does anyone have a list of everything that comes with the DLC? Like not the obvious things but like how the P3 DLC comes with
the SEES armband that helps you get money easier.

treasure demons remind of Jojo.

beat the 4th dungeon. Great level design all around, and I even liked the boss. Made it feel epic.


I am so glad I read Neogaf earlier in the month. Now my Sun is maxed out with days to spare, and my Temperance/Death are lv 8 as well.

The music is not winning me over as P3/P4 but I still like it at times. I think Persona 4 had better dungeon themes for sure.

Finished my last exam today and got back to the game. I'm at the 4th palace atm, what is the suggested level for the boss here?
 
Anyone feel terrible about turning down the Empress romance?

I legitimately had a hard time not reloading my save and two-timing Makoto after seeing the DESPAIR from turning it down. The only romance with any real disappointment after the shut-down.

Finished up the platinum today.

This is probably my favorite Persona game, and will most likely go in my top 5 all time favorite JRPGs. Had a lot of fun with it, and if an enhanced version comes out later with more content would gladly pick it up and 100% it all over again.

Me. They nailed everything about that, from the animation to the facial expression on her model. I felt terrible.

I was surprised- because up to that point the girls I turned down didn't have that response so I thought the default response for them is friendship
 
Man Ryuji is really starting to get on my nerves. I want to like him but his character is such a fucking douchebag, it's my only complaint about the game so far. I'm in mid September

Wait so the romance stuff went back to the way it was in Persona 3?

Question regarding Luck Reading:

I'm not completely sure how this works. When I do it and go to the diner I get 2 points instead of 1, but what if I do it on something that already gives 2 or 3 points? I tried and there's no difference in the animation. Is there an actual increase despite the animation being the same or am I wasting my money?

Anyone know the answer to this?

I didn't feel bad but I did notice that she took being friendzoned the worst.

Ok this isn't really a spoiler but I wanna point out a glaring flaw in design. The one thing I simply do not understand is why can I not be inside the Leblanc during day time ?

It makes no sense that the game won't allow you do do something that it previously used to before (and still does during the Sundays and holidays, although it doesn't let you come back into Leblanc without advancing time if you leave).

I want to play the games during the "after school" slot but I can't unless it's a holiday. Makes no sense because this is something the game allowed you to do before palace 4.

How so? Ryuji happened to have one of my favorite voice actors (Mamoru Miyano) so i may be biased but he's my favorite bro yet.

Sojiro is there and you are supposed to be in school?
Doesn't he mention how weird it is for you to be in there during a school day after you fake your death?

Yea one of the few wierd missteps. I made a habit of saving every morning so i can reload inside Leblanc just in case. Easily remedied.

The problem is bro ryuji in the social links is a completely different character from stupid douche bag Ryuji who appears in the main story. Ryuji single handedly is responsible for two of the worst moments in the plot (palace 3 and 5 spoilers)
fucking up and letting Makoto figure out they're the phantom thieves, then upsetting morgana where he ran away

Like he doesn't think about anything, just charges into everywhere, he's a dick to Mona, his testosterone level ruins every scene he's in (and I'm a total perv), he only cares about fame and glory, and he's just a complete airhead.
 
For the record I think Ryuji is the worst character in any modern Persona game period. The fact people like characters in these games because of a Japanese va when they don't understand Japanese just baffles me.

Uncle Sojiro's rank 9 and 10 absolutely killed me...

I've been ranking up SLs left and right like there's no tomorrow and have 13 left till the palace 7 deadline. I think I might be able to max the ones I intend to...

tried that network fusion, gave me a
Thor
. Never seen a
Thor

son of a whore, I should have been using it before shoudlnt I? ;_;

You haven't? But he was a mini-
boss in Palace 6
... Anyway that's some luck. Thor is one of my favorite Megaten demons!

Accidently letting Makoto overhear their conversation sure, but are you saying you don't want Makoto to join? :p


And the Morgana/Ryuji fued started from the get-go. Morgana's insecurities caused him to become very vulnerable at that point of the story and thus couldn't take the same kind of thuggish remarks Ryuji had constantly used the entire game in that moment.

Well Morgana
spends the whole game treating Ryuji like shit so I fail to see how it's his fault that when he fires back one time like he always does Morgana just freaks out and throws a tantrum.

Dudeeeeee...come on now. It's "after school", you are not suppose to be in school anymore.

Secondly, this starts happening from Palace 4 and onwards, you could enter Leblanc and play games before that just fine. If Sojiro being there was the reason then why were you able to do it before? This isn't even considering the fact (post palace 3 spoilers)
that you can hold hideout meetings at the same time. (Basically you lose the ability to enter Leblanc during the day when your room becomes the hideout, and it makes no sense because on holidays you can use your room as both hideout and just as your room)

Thirdly, the thing you mention in spoiler (post palace 6 spoilers)
is exclusive to the last palace and moreover why would it be weird for him to be in Leblanc after faking his death? Shouldn't he instead stay home for that exact reason? I mean that's exactly why he doesn't go to school during that period and why Sojiro doesn't let him leave Leblanc during the day for a good couple of days.
