I had to fuse one too, and in my case I just found triple fusions that made Tower personas, and then downranked until I made Taotie. Probably not quite as helpful as a direct guide telling you what to do, but sometimes those fusion guides don't work. Plus sometimes you can't look up the guide. or at least in my case, I know I can't.Wilsongt said:

Yeah, I have mine up to Rank 9 and it's a world of a difference. Especially in the later dungeons if you are making good cash, then whatever the Fox asks of you is going to seem like chump change.
Be sure to run through other dungeons once or twice just to make some money. There's no reason you shouldn't have at least over 100,000 yen by the third dungeon.
On tonight's episode of "Well, that was Stupid":
I finally got a super powerful level 61 Kin-Ko or Kii-Ko or something, and it deals out heavy phys damage to every enemy on the screen. So I decided to do this on the very first fight I encountered on reentering the fourth floor of the fifth dungeon. All enemies counter. 150 phys damage x 3 hits my main character and kills him. Game over.

At least I had saved recently.

:lol that sucks. Shouldn't
have a skill that tells you if an attack is going to be effective and reflect an attack or not?

are you in direct control of your teammates? If not, i would recommend doing that to save SP on your other characters.
the majority of the spell casting should come from you MC since you can get personas with stuff like invigorate.

Do all the bonus bosses give you kick-ass special weapons like this?

I got Blessed Hands for trading fish to the old guy by the river pretty early on (April or May iirc) and gave that to Yukiko. Doubles heal spells which works out almost as well (her Mediarama cures nearly 300 HPs on everyone for 12 sp). Save the Chakra for MC imho.

Alright I'm getting ready to go after and catch the Big King Fish thing whatever. It's a rainy day so I know that I can catch it today. And I also heard that I need to wait for BIG vibrations in the controller before I start reeling it in.
Any other tips other than that?

Tamanon said:
Okay I've gotten several big vibrations (I think), when do I start to reel in?
It seems like it's a _lot_ easier to catch them in December. Trying to catch Huge Fish in December, I ended up catching more Guardians than Huge FishAdam Prime said:
Other than that, it's not just the size of vibrations, but the amount of time between them that helps tell the fish apart. Longer period = bigger fish.
Start to reel when the bobber drops.
Oh yeah, it's simple enough to pass on a passive skill like that, I'd just rather spend two seconds equipping an item than 30 minutes to an hour getting a skill like that on all of the personas I use. I had a bunch of personas where I was using all 8 of their skill slots often, anyway.firex said:
Besides, if anyone other than the MC needs the Chakra Ring, it's Naoto.
Hamaon + Mudoon + Megidolaon (I discarded the multiple insta-kill spells due to the high SP cost and lower connect rate) = huge SP drain.

You people leave Naoto alone!
great until SP runs out, which is usually around turn 7, and what's wrong with a bit of added dificulty?

It just takes perseverance to finish the game, think of it as an increment to gameplay, yeah that's it.Blackjack said:
That's true, but only if there are more than two enemies weak to it. Otherwise, it's not. Since it was pretty rare for me to run into a battle where that happened, I figured it was better to have the single-hit ones. Besides, Mudoon/Hamaon connect 60% of the time, while Mamudoon/Mahamaon only connect 40%.Blackjack said:
(or something close to that)
Blackjack said:
Whatever. I gave him the 1/2 SP item and just spammed his death skills all the way until the end of the game. He completely trivializes regular battles, and none of the bosses after you get him are remotely difficult anyways (or at least not in ways where any of the other characters would make a damn difference, either).
In P3, I got through the second half of the game casting almost nothing except instant death moves. In P4, they're even better because if you miss one but hit a weakness on another, you get another chance.

Just hit August in the game, sure is going by fast. We
but I know better than that. So really looking forward to seeing the story pick up from here.
"caught" the killer
Yaweee said:
I didn't spam his skills, but he's certainly far from useless...not sure what these other guys are smoking. Best dungeon crawler out of the rest of the party, but yeah, he's not that great for boss battles. Luckily, there's that handy save point right before each one.

Yes I just had sex with Chie. I love the music when you hit a max S.Link! :lol
Ourobolus said:
This was pretty much the same reasoning that I used when I kept the single targets over the multi-ones, plus the fact that using the single target ones makes it somewhat more likely that you'll trigger an ally's follow-up attack (since you're hitting more weaknesses), which can save you even more SP.
That, and I never get tired of seeing Galactic Punt.
Finally I was able to beat
. I decided to not to do it on another day, buy stay with full HP for everyone, full SP for MC, and 1 snuff soul and 3 TaP Soda for yukiko as healer. Man winning that battle was pure luck.
What the hell is this? A fantasy or did I just read a spoiler?

All of them. And if your Understanding is high enough, at the same time!
observation about the true ending:
Man, after coming down from Expert Mode, Normal is like a vacation. Nothing to do but go fishing and chill, occasionally kill things with Trumpeter.
When I saw that Adachi's persona was Bizarro Izanagi, I thought the game was going to build up to a fight against Shadow Yourself. It's kind of cliched, but it gels with what your teammates go through... and it's certainly a lot better than DEFEAT THE UGLY THING. SAVE THE WORLD.

Yeah that was by far my toughest boss battle so far in the game. After this it was smooth sailing because I had the Fox S.Link pretty high and healing was no longer a real issue. Just go through some old dungeons if you're ever strapped for cash to heal.

Varna said:
:lol I'm just messing with yall about the sex. When you get a max S.Link with a girl you get an ambigous line about what you guys do next and the screen goes black.
Unlike P3, in this game you can't make the other girls jealous for "dating" another one. So yeah, you can be dating them all at the same time in the game with no negative consequences.
Adam Prime said:
Really..? I've managed to stay on top of gear and items but I just started the third dungeon and I don't have anywhere near that amount. I am playing on hard though so I don't know if items are marked up... plus I've been taking it easy since the last dungeon. I manage to defeat the extra boss right after the story events so I figured that was a good indicator that I was at a decent level for the next dungeon.
I know Adam, I've finished P3. I think it's pretty stupid you can do it now with no consequence at all.
Adam Prime

Well there ya go, you're playing on Expert and I'm on Normal. Although now I wish I had played on Expert... I dunno. I am dying A LOT less than I did on Persona 3. And I guess that's probably a good thing. I really hate playing for two hours in a dungeon and then getting KO'd by some random enemy and lose all progress. The game is still challenging, but now just less frustrating.
I think the No-Reverse S.Link thing is alright. It's less "realistic" but a lot less tedious. I remember I had to look up guides to see what I was "supposed" to say to keep the girls from getting pissed off at me more when I was in Reverse.
