It fades after a few turns, if you can keep that character alive long enough. I don't think any items work on it.

It's tied down to each member's Agility.

The music + the way the enemies walk in the 3rd dungeon is perfect.

As mostly a Persona newcomer, I'm really liking it. It feels fleshed out, art is vibrant, music is terrific, and I'm really caught up in the whacky, amusing school drama aspect. P4's beginning was much too slow for me and while this is still most definitely a slow burn, I find the narration and protagonist involvement more engaging. This lets you do things and participate more I feel... just more involving I guess despite still being slow.

Though I originally planned for Ann, now when I can raise her Confidant to 9 I hesitated, simply because Makoto. Oh well....... Sigh.
I think I was the same level as you and got carried by
Rampage.
If you can complete the twin confidant request go for that, that Shiina Persona was a super strong physical attacker for that fight.

Chest stuff isn't worth the time it takes to make the lockpicks IMO.
For the second question, once you get

I think they're referring to sending
one of the characters to activate a paint pump and use the enemy's strategy against it.

Shiki Ouji is distressingly overpowered. Especially around the time you get him. If you have an SP Regen item you can grind in the dungeon forever. Just fight Oni who only have physical attacks and just skip turns as they kill your party, then clean up and revive all them when your SP maxes out.

Really getting annoyed at being forced to sleep almost every night...
Also the song in your bedroom sounds like it could be a rocket league menu song.

I'm about 17 hours in and just finished the first palace boss haha...
Really enjoying the game though. Makes me want to check out other works in the shin megami universe.

I'll hopefully get the game in a few days. Luckily I'm blind about the game's story (unlike with P3 and P4 where I got major ploints spoiled ;_
Anything I should look out for? Any important changes from P4? Recommended difficulty? Any crazy requirements for a true ending? Do girls get mad at you if you date them at the same time?

Woah, what does laundry do?
Just turns grimy gear, etc into armor you can equip. Think it normally takes up a time slot but if you pay a certain someone to do it for you, you can just go do other stuff.
I'm 3 months into the game with 3 dungeons done. I haven't even touched Memento and I have been skipping a lot of conversations lately because a lot of time it's just too much text for a simple thing, and yet it's taken me 39 hours to get here. Man this game is going to be looooooong game !!
Speaking of texts I've noticed that a lot of Japanese games use a boat load of text to just say what could have been said in 3 sentences (had this issue in Yakuza too). Why ? I mean when every message/dialogue is 3-4 lines long and every conversation has 10-20 messages/dialogues it's a lot to read for something that could be condensed into something much less.

Devil Survivor, Digital Devil Saga, and Shin Megami Tensei 4 are my recommendations. And if you want an ass kicking, Nocturne has the biggest foot of the bunch.

Man, I wish Iwai would join my party.
Stuck on the 2nd boss fight on hard, what I hate about this fight is its pure RNG/Luck. 2 times Yusuke has been hit by fire, Ann by ice, it's bullshit to be frank. You can't really avoid that.
I got it to the very end(I only had Yusuke/MC to gang up and we tried our best offensive attacks but alas, he was 1 hit away) but he wiped out my characters with ease with The Artist Grace and Sukaja(The ability to evade) is again, pure luck and it doesn't always guarantee saving that character.
I am level 19 and have High Pixie with Media & Diarama/Nekomata as well. What sucks so much with this game is the inability to buy a revival item at any point. Seems like such a huge hindsight given Recarm is an ability in most SMTs you learn in your late 20's I believe. Should they be cheap? No but they should be available not so later in the game.

I'm pretty sure I could buy revival items by that point.
Doctor sold them after a point I believe.
I'm about a week in on the calendar and I really don't understand Personas confidants and characters. It's like they all have their own level system but I have no idea what I am using, a Persona or a confidant? I've only played #FE and that was easy with orbs and weapons.
Can anyone explain what each is clearly? I'd appreciate it.

Seconding these recs. Well, DDS and SMT4 anyway. I haven't actually played much more than an hour or so of Devil Survivor. I definitely need to at some point.
P5 is really making me want a full on DDS remaster for PS4. Man I hope they do that.

First Persona game...is this game rely a lot on grinding? Not quite done with the 1st palace yet though I imagine I'm close
but I notice some enemies can nearly 1 shot you . I upgraded a lot of my equipment from that airsoft store and such and fused some personas I had. I think I'm level 10 or 11.

When's a good time to (in first dungeon)
It seems like the results are always garbage.
ask demons for items?
She's level 4 in my social link and she only gives HP heals thus far shockingly enough. Not even SP which outside of coffee brewing is another thing that kinda stinks(I legit stock up on those 5 SP vending machines LOL)
I think it explains it more as you play, but basically you're using Personas, but they have a tarot card associated with it. Confidants are NPCs you can bond with that also have these associated with them, you get bonus points with them if you have the same 'type' of persona on, and makes fusing better.
So Ryuji for example is Chariot, if you have him at rank 4 and fuse a Chariot-type persona it gets a burst of extra XP from that bond, and if you hang out with him you should try to have a Chariot on.
Haha thanks. Somehow I'm still confused. I think this weekend when I grind another 10 hours and actually sink my teeth in it will become clear.

kinda bugs me that
agathions maybe, one of them gave me a soul drop once, otherwise it's just junk

its pretty normal for persona games to be able to almost kill you even at the same lvls of them and grinding wont really negate that
I would just explore the menus a lot, there's some additional tutorials you can re-read and if you check the confidant and persona tabs it might make more sense. This is my first Persona game so I felt pretty overwhelmed at first too.
That manga must be good.
