I...didn't even know that there were special combo moves in this game wow. Yeah, I only found out about the mood-based negotiations from this OT actually. Will take a look at the tutorials later. Thanks.

I'm enjoying fusions a lot more in this game then I have in the past. I'm not sure if it's just because I'm going out of my way to understand the system more or what. In the past I just used the calculators or guides to up my S Links and get special Personas. I'm sure I'll have to do that for some stuff, but I've put in a fair amount of time using the fusion charts, and playing around to expand my compendium and do the twins requests without just looking it up.
I think my first playthrough is going to be well over 100 hours. I've spent a ton of time just wandering around, showing my girlfriend stuff. Fusing, mementos etc...I mean, I'm just starting the 4th dungeon at 50 hours. There's probably 5ish hours of idling in there, but yeah, I'm really taking it in. This usually means I won't do a NG+ for a long time, but I'm ok with that, it's what I did with P4 and it was nice to revisit everything after a prolonged break.

Nah that's not him, he's a late game persona.
Early July spoilers
When Ryuji and the MC go fishing, I thought it was hilarious how when Ryuji was looking for a fishing Master, Becky showed up. Then the game acknowledges it by giving you the dialogue option to call her "Master", and it gives you 3 music notes for both of them XD
Good, that would have been really disappointing if that was actually him.

Enemy in the fourth palace:
Anubis is hands down the most annoying enemy so far. He has put a stop to a couple of my runs in the palace and its aggrevating, but thats what hard mode is all about. 
It's.
Or, it's almost Mara. It's a callback from Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, where a group of demons tried to invoke Mara but they failed, resulting in such demon being a mix of Mara/Slime.

If you can get a Persona with Tetraja (I think it's a Twin Wardens request), you can cast that to avoid insta-death.
Edit: Principality has it at level 29 btw.
Oh yeah, I knew that thing looked famliiar! I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I fucking love Nocturne.

Yeah it's what I noticed. Might sacrifice her physical and go pure magic. Didn't bother going for group spells and kept it single target spells for most characters. Enemies lineup would always have someone who would exploit group spells.

Isis that you find in the same dungeon is immune to all his shit.
Nothing. It's amazing. I need it on my workout playlist or something.

Well now I have a few options that Ill do on my next play session. Cant believe I missed (fourth palace monster)
this whole time too. Thanks guys!
Isis
You missed her?
She was spanking my ass all up and down that damn
pyramid.
Man. 3rd dungeon was a pain in the ass to clear on one day. It really doesn't help your social links bleed you dry around that time not leaving any room for upgraded gear. Took a few SP items but I did it. Now to see how long I can last to squeeze every last drop of exp.
Lucky punch is a godsend.

For real. I thought I'd keep Morgana for healing, but now I refuse to get rid of him just for Lucky Punch + Baton Pass.

Just came from the
beach
I found my tactic for grinding there involved some phantoms that sleep you, heal themselves, and having a sp restore accessory. Grind out using my sp then return to them and bait out sleep on my characters to restore so.
For the guys lucky punch is good on I found using combos of mental effects + psychic attacks super effective.

Baton pass to yusuke should be what follows. Lethal combinaton with them two. Hoesntly all of the characters are pretty powerful except makoto who i found to be a good defence character.
Got a link to it? I can't find that version on youtube...maybe i'm blind.
I dont have that second location yet. I cant find him at all tho, and it said I should go to him after
each memento
where does he hang out in
shibuya

Afraid of looking at other spoilers so I'll ask this directly. I'm in the opening sections and the game has just now allowed me to begin moving about freely.
I'm told I have to "take Kamoshida's heart" by the time the school board meeting happens or else I'll be expelled. There have been veiled threats that really bad things will happen if I'm expelled from a second school. How serious is it? Obviously, I'll get a game over in the game, but what is the story implying happens to the main characters? No school will accept me again? Execution? It would have to be pretty bad considering we could still invade his castle after May 5th, make him change his heart, and then just deal with whatever the consequences were from there.

It's perfect. Really compliments the atmosphere of the palace with 99% alert alarm, makes for great decisive do or die moments.

I agree so with this sentiment. It's subtle in some cases but looking back it makes sense. In the example of Ann, knowing her past makes it understandable why she is clingy.
It's God-tier.

You will need to get more points with them for the bond to deepen, hanging out with them in this scenario is the easiest way to get points with them.
Ir still gives you 3 points for hanging with them with a persona of their arcana on your team. You will be in that position a ton unless you check the good answers for the questions during the S.Link so may as well do it.
This is something I'm wondering, too. Should you only hang out when it says the bond will deepen?
Ah, that's what I figured.
Thanks

I am undecided if I want to take advantage of this or not.
"Bond will Deepend" is the Rank Up scene, but there's still an underlying point system that will increment during the regular, non-Rank Up hangout scenes.

You have to hang out with confidants in order to progress towards the next level. Down the line, the game will give you more options to speed this process up.

It sounds almost unfair LOL
Yeah, I'm feeling this pretty hard right now.

It will probably break the game so yes you should
Im feeling it too. Only happened this gen for me with Virtues Last Reward. I dont want this game to end. I need Persona 6 to be released tomorrow.

I'm on 7/18, and have a 4 in knowledge and a 3 in everything else. Is there any stat I should really try to focus on? There are some things I know I need to boost for certain situations, like
Makoto's next rank, and the airsoft guy.

Thank god, I haven't saved in like an hour.
he killed himself.
